FirefIies as Ornaments

The bizarre dictates of fashion,
which suggested carrying monkey,
or wearing a lizard or chameleon We're
anything but esthetic or attractive
At first blush the wearing of an in
sect seems repulsive, but anyone who
has seen beautiful Brazilian or Creole
women making use of firefiies, or cucu-
Jos, fastening them in little transpar'
ent bags of light tulle to their dresses
and hair might change his mind and
be entranced by the sight of these
living jewels glowing in the darkness
of scented gardens.

wales.
 One tragic feature of the voyage was the apparent sighting of the lights of a city. This was the night the Rithet exploded, and as they were 900 miles from land, they could not con- ceive of landing there. But the lights almost convinced them against their judgment. They rowed in the direc- tion of the lights-and found them to be patches of oil burning on the sur face of the water, a result of the eX- plosion of their ship.
 At first the boat tried to make San Francisco, but found this impracticable on account of the direction of the wind, so they turned and.roweG in the direction of Kauai. For ten days they rowed steadily, until, half starved, they were on the point of exhaustion, when they raised the island, and a few hours later were safe in the port at Eleele.

SHORT CUT FOR
 FISHING BOATS
Dredging of Canoe Pass Authorized By War Department to Aid
 Fishermen

JUNEAU, Aug. %, (By MaiD- Permission has been received in ; telegram from the War Department tC the Territorial Road Commission fol the First Division, to dredge the pro. posed channel through the Bar in the north end of Gastineau Channel to al. low small boats of the fishing fleet to make Juneau from the Chatham and Icy Straits section without tho long detour around the south end O. Douglas Island
 The act authorizing the Road Com. missioAers to use the road funds foI this purpose was introduced in the House of the last Legislature by w w. Casey, Representative from Ju neau, and was passed. As soon as the board had been organized, RoaC Commissioner Ed L. Hurlbut put mer to work and full survey of 5hc pro- ject was made.
 It was found that the dredging of the old channel across the bar was impractical on account of ledge of rock which extends across the chan rel. A rassage was found that could be dredmed through Canoe Pass, at a cost of about $2OOOO and it is under stood that work will start as soon as possible.
 The work will be done with drag line scra2cr5, as the ground is all glacier silt and easily removed.

JAPANESE OF HAWAII ANXIOUS
 TO ENTER ARMY FOR WAR SERVICE

HONOLULU, T. H., Aug. 4, (By MaiD .-Orientals resident in Hawaii are eager to join the National Army, while the majority of white men eligi- ble for draft as demonstrated by the registration taken here last Tuesday, are equally eager to avoid service.
 Such is the general result of an analysis of the registration figures as unoniciaIly reported by the registra- tion board. No official report has yet been made.
 The outstanding feature of the reg istration figures, however, is that of the 25,977O who registered, there were considerably more than twice as many Orientals, most of them Japanese, as there were white men of all white na- t.onalitics. The number of citizens registered was 794O, whereas 1S,03O aliens registered. This demonstrates fairly well the proportions of citizen 70 Oriental population in the Islands. Also it cmphatically disproves the statement that has been made public hero and on the mainland that Hawaii through her national guard has al ready contributed considerably more than her quota toward national de- fense.
 Of those who registered, more than fifty per cent of the citizens claimed exemption. Of the Orientals, very few claimed exemption. This is part ly to be accounted for by the fact that at the time of registration it was gen erally understood that Orentals not citizens, not only could not be drafted but could not volunteer.

ALASKA AND THE
 FUTURE PAPER SUPPLY

IT news print consumption is to con- tinue on the present basis and the present rate of increase, it is estimat- ed that the available supply of wood in the United States will be consumed within ten or twenty years, unless some plan is devised either to re-pulp the old printed newspapers or by a method of reforestation, or both.
 Reforestation is put forward by the Government as the best means of as suring to the newspapers a sufficient supply of news print for the future. W. B. Greeley, Assistant Forester, at Washington, states that the Pacific Northwest and Alaska promises much for the future.
 It might be, he says, that the for ests of Alaska would prove to be the most valuable asset of that Territory. It is possible, he thinks, to manufac- ture paper there, bring it through the canal, and lay it down at Atlautic seaboard points for from $35 to $40 a ton. At the present time the bulk of paper of the United States is produced in the Northeastern section, and, as in the case of the lumber industry

EACH MUST DO A BIT

The new policy concerning slackcrs is the natural course toward those who have no loyalty to the nation or desire to do their share in this crisis. Too put one in jail for refusing to fight or do army duty is no gain, but to insist on service will result in gain for it will be an object lesson to those who would otherwise crowd the jaIs and add to our already increasing burden of expense.
 Under this ruling a man refusing Co enroll for draft is enrolled in spite of himself, and if drawn, must report or be declared deserter and in war time it is not so very far between the dec- laration that man is deserter and the grave, via the firing squad.
 Of course there are plenty of ex- captions and the rule is sufficiently elastic to prevent an injustice, but it is also sufficiently severe to insure swift and certain punishment for the wjUul enemy within the country.
