H. L. Faulkner and Capt. Geo F. Whitney have been appointed a committee to take charge of the matter and endaeyor to raise funds in Juneau and the vicinity. Con- tributions should be paid to either MT. Faulkner or Captain Whitney or at the B. M. Behrends Bank The names of the contributors will be published from day to day in the papers. The committee realizes that the people of Gastineau Chan mel have been called upon quite frequently of late for contributions and that other calls will be made from time to time; but a little fur ther sacrifice will not occasion any great hardship here and it will re suit in helping to relieve the suf- fering which has resulted from this, one of the most terrible disasters of modern times.
 Contributions in any amount will be acceptable The money will be turned into the Red Cross as spe- cial Halifax fund; and will be re- mitted through the Juneau Chap ter to the Red Cross headquarters.

and everything they possessed Ill the world. The intense cold wealth CT which has prevailed since the day of the explosion has made the suffering much greater. Calls have been sent out throughout Canada and the United States for help. The Red Cros has already responded with doctors, nurses and surgical supplies. The immediate needs have been taken care of but there is urgent need of funds with which to care for the injured and crippled and homeless; to provide food, cloth ing and shelter; and to provide for the orphaned children.
 The following letter has been sent out from headquarters of the Red Cross to all chapters: The American Red Cross, re; Halifax Disatter.
 To All Chapters of the Northwestern
 Division:
 Halifax has made an urgent appeal to the people of Canada for twenty five million dollars to relieve the suf- fering and destitute. for restoring the means of self-support to destitute fam flies, and for the reconstruction of dwellings so sorely neded now that winter has set in.
 America has already responded quick ly and generously. The Red Cross inn mediately sent to Halifax a staff of one hundred doctors, one hundred and fifty nurses, and fifty trained workers and it is reported that the personnel and material either there or on the way will fully meet the present or temporary needs.
 We are advised that the only hope full gift right now is money.
 No individual appeal should be made by the Red Cross. However, all Red Cross Chapters should accept unsolicited contributions of money only.
 Your Chapter should be sure and ively for Permanent Halifax Relief" all donations promptly by check to this office.
 The Division Office will report re- ceipts to Washington daily by wire. and make detailed report to National each Saturday night Give this letter the widest possible publicity.
 Very truly yours,

ECONOMY A LOST ART.

Time was once when economy was a virtue in
United States, but today we are in the words OF
Secretary Redfeld the industrial MASTERS of the
world. There is no use to cite the fact that it
costs more to cart barrel from a city warehouse
to the railroad than it does to haul it a hundred
miles on the freight train when the eyes of all
citizens see evidence of a new extravaganza among
the people of this community.
There are too many persons hereabouts who
are living on a hundred and fifty per cent. of their
income. Their wives and children must be doIled
up, they must play the sport, enjoy the sights,
take in every amusement that come along, and 20
out of town for some others. There are too many
people who judge success by wealth and wealth
by unnecessary outlay. We are living in an
age OF abundance in appearance at least.
There are families in this town who have ev-
erybody wondering where the money comes from.
They spend it faster than anybody sees them
make it. Expenditure has become fashionable
and money is spent for useless things because 1t
seems to be the craze. Economy and coiIi..ly !.
sense in the spending of money is out OF las..4o...
1t is a bad taste, it SHOWS ~avarice, seldshness ana .
majority Of the other ills Of mankind. The world
has fallen in love with the free spender, the man
says he wants to enjoy his money.

BONE DRY IN TEN YEARS.

Both the prohibitionists and the liquor people
declare that they are pleased with the recent de-
cision of the supreme court upholding the Webb
Kenyon law, but the prohibitionists are decidedly
more aggressive in adopting the slogan of bone
dry" in ten years.
This question will in all probability come III
decided form during the next presidential election
and it behooves voters everywhere to give it some
study. An interesting fact has been brought out
by the government figures, which show that thero
is more whiskey and beer imbibed per capita in
the United States now than some years ago.
This may be accounted for by the fact that
the government is in better position to find out
how much has been manufactured now when most
of the stuff is distilled under a tax than it was
when every mountaineer and farmer who wanted
his booze had his private still. ;
Regardless Of what may be the truth it is
a fact that the people Of this country are going to
have to decide whether they want national pro-
hibition or not and the time of their decision ap-
pears not far distant.

1t is more important to know what
a man is than the policy he intends to
pursue. 1t is better to have a cou.
rageous, high-minded, honest, capable
man than n who lugged a bale of pol.
icies. In the personality lie the high.
est possibilities of public duty. Just
what a man will do 10 certain emer-
gencies no n knows by what he says
he will do, for he is a creature of
circumstances, and the construction Of
those circumstances belongs to his per.
sonality, which is attested by his life.
So the ultimate object of all policies
should be the man who can rise above
a selfish influence and do the right
thing at the right time, says Ohio
State Journal. And all this lies with.
in the sphere Of education, from
which is evolved the citizen whose
whole value is his personality, and not
his knowledge or his smartness or
oratOry.

GREENWOOD, MISS, JANUARY 80, 1917.
SOME LEGISLATORS ANSWERS WERE
RIGHT FUNNY.

1t is right funny to read the answers Of some
of the legislators to Gov. Bilbo's question that if
he called an extra session would they vote for alb
solute prohibition. Instead Of answering yes or
no, they enter into an argument as to whether it
is wise or not to call the session. The Governor
did not ask them about calling the session, he
only wanted to know what they would do if he
did call 1t, and if ne has the backbone he should
have, he viii call the session ana limit the gen.
tie1aen to one week, the cost Of which will be
nothing compared to the expenses of whiskey one
year.-Winston County Journal.

Did you know that the words "ci-
pher" and zero came from the same
Arabic original? OF curse you know
that they commonly mean the same
thing, but they don't at all look as II
they had the same root. It came about
In this way: The Arabic word was
"sifr." The old Latin treatises on
arithmetic took this word from the
Arabic, but Latipized it into 'zephy.
rum" The Italians contracted this
into "zefiro." We knocked the two mid
die letters out and still further short
ened it to zero" The French. on
the other hand, contracted the Latin
term into "clfre," thus getting nearer
to the Arabic. Aud since the English
language has always taken what It

was needed or Motive took this word,

have differentiated the meanings of the
two words, now; zero means nothing,
and cipher means the character for
nothing.

WHAT ABOUT WHEAT SUPPLY?

There are those who maintain that apart from
international relations our domestic problems will
furnish enough worry for the average American,
and an authority suggests that unless there is a
large crop of foodstuffs the outlook will be viewed
with considerable concern.
The worlds supply Of the most important
foodstuff, wheat, is declining. There is no doubt
that Europe is in hard straits for wheat. Great
Britain has forbidden the cabling of grain quota
tons and the food dictator has undertaken to
stop much of the waste by prohibiting it's use as
a food to animals. Millers are instructed to Sc
cure more -four by additional milling.
As for Germany, it is apparent that she is
hard up for wheat. The small neutral nations
there have little more than enough and the gen.
'eral prospect is that the end of the raise is not
yet in sight. Wheat at 81 a bushel has become
a commonplace!

Secretary fedheld declares that

Secretary Fedfeld declares that
more than one-third Of the paper con-
sllmed in the United States. which
amounts to 10000 tons daily, goes to
waste. He thinks that a good deal
OF paper Is wasted In wrapping puck
ages more deliberately than Is needed,
and that ~wrappings should not at once
be discarded and burned, but be used
over and over, and finally saved for
paper collectors. It Is easier to
preach economy than to get Americans
to practice it.
