WHERE ARE THOSE SWEATERS;

TREADWELL, Nov. 3.-Rome was not built in day and in that re spect Rome has nothing on a dozen or more sweaters-two dozen, per haps-that have been reporting pro- gross" for To, these many weeks, but not one of which has as yet been turned into Red Cross head quarters. Up to the present week packages of knitted goods have been sent on their way toward France regularly each week for nearly two months. But this week has been a blank in that respect, nothing hay ing been turned fn-at least, nothing sufficient to constitute shipment

NO DECREASE OF FISH

DOUGLAS, Nov. 3.-Manager c. P. Morgan of the Alaska Coast Fish Company announces that business could not possibly be any better with his company than it is. Yesterday four boat loads, comprising 1S,000 pounds, were boxed and the whole lot was shipped this morning on the Admiral Watson to Seattle. The Petersburg fishing boat Kennebec, which was here with a big cargo for the first time, returned this morning with a catch of 4000 pounds which is being unloaded this fore noon. Another boat with good catch is also at the dock unloading. The business is of much greater proportion and is keeping up much better than was ever anticipated it would The trade from the fishing fleet is now a great factor with To- cal merchants.

MEETING NIGHTS UNSETTLED

DOUGLAS, Nov. 3.-The matter of selecting suitable nights on which to hold the night school is still causing considerable speculation among the sixty or more attendants, it being difficult to select nights that do not conflict with other meet ings At the start of the school Tuesday and Thursday were select ed, but was unsatisfactory as only one night intervened between the meetings. Then Monday and Thurs day were selected, but next Monday is the date for the meeting of the Parent Teachers Association and it was decided yesterday to have the next session of the night school Tuesday night At the next meeting it is proposed to. vote on the times for holding the school, many favor ing Tuesday and Friday nights. But it is said that these nights will be unsatisfactory to certain students on account of lodge meetings. II really looks as though, when adults take up night school, they should adopt childhood's customs and cut out everything wise except, possibly the picture shows Saturday or Sun day night, going to bed at 9 o'clock when not at school.
