FISH TROUBLE
 BETWEEN TWO
 NATIONS OVER
Agreement Settling the Dispute between U. s. and Canada Said
 To Be Reached

WASHINGTON, June II. - An agreement settling the dispute be- tween the United States and Canada concerning the shipment of the fish over the Grand Trunk railroad in bond to American points in the East has been practically reached. The agreement prevents discrimination against American fishermen and Alas kan ports and will give American fishermen the right of the use of the Grand Trunk railroad with it's west ern terminus at Prince Rupert. It makes it so that fish put in cold stor- age at an American port may be shipped through Canada in bond just the same as fish put in cold storage at Prince Rupert. It will also allow Canadian fishermen to deliver fish for transportation to the East to deliver and sell their product at an American point just the same as American fishermen. and American fishermen will have the same rights at Prince Rupert as Canadian fish ermen.
 Canadian fishermen will be re- stricted in the future as in the past to fishing in Canadian or neutral wa ters, likewise American fishermen cannot fish in Canadian waters with out authority from the Canadian gov ernment.
 It is said that the agreement Is perfectly satisfactory to the Alaskan fisheries interests and those interest ed in Alaskan cities.

 BUTTE. June 111.-Nyrja John- son was the first of the entombed miners to reach the surface and he immediately told the crowd at the mouth of the shaft that they owed their lives to Manus Duggan. "It was he who directed the work. None of us would be here If 1t had not been for him.
 A drink of brandy was urged up- on. Johnson when he reached the surface but he refused It because of the company rules. but he finally took 1t at the suggestion Of the physician. ag
 "Duggan told us all to go Into the drift" said Johnson. relating his experiences. and after we got in there Duggan took piece of canvas and we took of our clothes and choked out the gas. Duggan directed the work and when some of the men became weak and fell. he did the work of ten men. hope tEat they save Duggan."

Hair Often Ruined
By Washing With Soap

Soap should be used very carefully,

is better than the most expensive soap

One or two teaspoonfuls will cleanse
the hair and scalp thoroughly. Simply
moisten the hair with water and rub
It in. It makes an abundance of rich.

SAYS U. S. AERO FLEET
COULD WIN WORLD WAR
Captain De Ia Grange, Of French
Corps, Sees Victory.

THE intervention of the United
States with a great and powerful air
feet would. without doubt, give 4 de-
cisive victory for the allies over au-
tocracy," declared Captain de La
Grange, OF the French aviation sert-
ice, in an interview today.
eff this decisive victory is not at
tanned. the question will be brought
up again within ten years, and would
then probably be fought out, not in
Europe, but on American soil.
There are now about 5000 allied
airplanes against the same number of
German. Imagine what would hap
pen IL America threw in the balance
1000 or 5000 more in 1918. There
would be two or three allied air
planes against each German machine.
This would establish absolute supe-
riority OF the allied aviation"

1t is for the classes above re-
ferred to, we are making this ur-
gent appeal to our friends and
sympathizers.
We hope many of the readers
of this appeal will use us as a
clearing house in reaching these
unfortunate children. Through
you this institution has been a

gard, and we sincerely hope this
year will not prove an exception.
We very much hope all will
bear in mind that the greatest
good accomplished in this effort
does not come from giving a few
children Christmas gifts in diff
ferent forms, but the calling the
attention of the young to the
birth of the Savior of men,
through Christmas tokens,
quickens a spirit of spiritual
gratitude and stimulates an abid-
ing interest in the Savior's mis-
sion upon the earth which prom
ises to live in the hearts of these
people permanently.
With the two above conditions
in mind, we make this our annual
appeal to all "who would like to
live in a house by the side of the
road where the race Of men go
by"

A Christmas Appeal For Unfortunate
Negro Children.

For a number of years the
Voorhees, Institute has served as
a distributing station for books,
magazines, or any other kind of
periodicals, cards, packages and
fruits, that have come to us from
friends in different parts of the
country for the poor, yet worthy
Negro children upon our campus
and in the rural sections of our
community.
Except for this means, large
number of children both at the
school and in the counties ada
cent to the school, will have no
way of being reminded of the
date concentrating the birth of
the Savior, the Christ. In past
years very large number of un-
fortunate children have been
told through this agency for the
first time the significance of
Christmas.
Not only has this been true of
children, but we have found it
true in many cases with the
adults who live in the parts of
the rural country beyond the
reach of educational influences.
This does not describe by any
means all of the unfortunate
children here at Voorhees, or in
the rural districts. We have
students upon our campus who
will only be reminded of the oc-
casion which brought the wise
men from the East by reason of
seeing others enter into the joy
Gus festivities Of the Yuletide
season who themselves and
whose parents are so impover-
ished that they will not be able in
