REFERS ONLY TO JUNEAU

It seems to be understood by some that the notice of the closing of the services of the churches to those uq- der IS years of age applies to all channel towns. This is a mistake. The Ministerial Association notice only refers to Juneau, and the action of the association is to help in car rying out the proclamation of the Mayor of Juneau.

Beautiful Norma. Talmadge Will Be cean Toniuht

Seen Tonight.
 Tonight at the Coliseum Norma Talmadge will be shown in "The Childern in the House."
 From the dreary slums of great city to the most entrancing realms of fairyland is the far reach of the scenes shown in the new Triangle Fine Arts release, "The Children in the House." in which Norma Tal- madge is featured. The story is one of love, deception, parting, reunion and final renunciation by two pee pie who put honor above affection, the governing factor being the chil- dren of the woman who has mar ried man unworthy of her respect Because of them, she sends out of her life the man for whom she really cares. Miss Talmadge con veys wonderful appeal in the principal role, and some remarkable work is done by the noted Fine Arts children" principal among them George Stone, Carmen de Rue, Francis Carpenter and Ninon Fov- ieri.

DENTAL WORK FREE OF
 CHARGE FOR RECRUITS

The State Council of Defense is ad- vised that Dentists of Arizona, as members of the Preparedness League of American Dentists, have volunteer led to do work for recruits free of charge that will make them dentally fit; this does not mean to put their mouths in perfect condition, but to make them fit for military duty and covers necessary extractions, certain filings and cleaning of teeth-the lat ter not in excess of one hour.
 Each dentist is authorized to act independently, except in the following ten cities where the dentists named shall act as local chairman for their irrespective cities and apportion the work as equitably as possible-H. H. Wilson, Phoenix; w. A. Baker, Tue son; L. B. Cary, Douglas; w. P. Sims, Bisbee; w. L. Spates, Globe; J. A. Rosenberg, Maimi; J. Harvey Blain, Prescott; L. A. Hawkins, Jer- ome; J. L. O'Connell, Flagstaff and J. P. Yeman, Yuma.
 The dentists can do such additional work out of the goodness of their hearts as they may see fit.
 The league does not ask for more than thirty hours per month of any dentists time, but more time will be gratefully accepted.

 in the head, eyes. ears, back or other parts of the body and feeling of se- were sickness. In most of the cases the symptoms disappear after three or four days, the patient then rapidly recover ing Some of the patients, however, develop pneumonia, or inflammation of the ear, or meningitis, and many of these complicated cases die. Whether this so-called Spanish influenza is identical with the epidemics of inf1uen- "a of earlier years is not yet known.
 "Epidemics of influenza have visited this country since 1647. It is interest ing to know that this first epidemic was brought here from Valencia, Spain. Since that time there have beer numerous epidemics of the dis ease. In 1889 and 1890 an epidemic of influenza, starting somewhere in the Orient, spread first to Russia and thence over practically the entire civ ilized world. Three years later there was another flare-up of the disease. Both times the epidemic spread wide ly over the United States.
 Although the present epidemic Is called Spanish influenza there is no reason to believe that 1t originated in Spain. Some writers who have studied the question believe that the epidemic came from the Orient and they call at- tention to the fact that the Germans mention the disease as occurring along the eastern front in the summer, and fall of 1917."
 How can "spanIsh influenza" be rec ognized?
 "There is as yet no certain way in which a single case of Spanish influ- enza' can be recognized. On the oth- CT hand, recognition is easy where there is group of cases. In contrast to the outbreaks of ordinary coughs and colds, which usually occur in the cold months, epidemics of influenza may occur at any season of the year. Thus the present epidemic ragged most intensely in Europe in May, June and July. Moreover, in the case of ordi- nary colds, the general symptoms (fever, pain, depression) are by no means as severe or as sudden In their onset as they are in influenza. Final ly, ordinary colds do not spread through the community so rapidly or O extensively as does influenza.
 "In most cases person taken sick with influenza feels sick rather sud denly. He feels weak, has pains in the eyes, ears, head or back, and may be sore all over. Many patients fssl dizzy, some vomit Most of the pa tients complain of feeling chilly, and with this comes fever in which the temperature rises to 100 to 1O4. In most cases the pulse remains relative ly slow.
 "1n appearance one Is struck by the fact that the patient looks sick. His eyes and the inner side of his eyelids may be slightly 'bloodshot,' or con gested,' as the doctors say. There may be running from the nose, or there may be some cough. These signs of a cold may not be marked; never theless the patient looks and feels very sick
 ''ln addition to the appearance and the symptoms as already described, examination of the patients blood may aid the physician in recognizing Span. ash influenza. for it has been found

J. A. MOORE, FORMER
 HIGH SCHOOL TEACHER WRITES FROM FRANCE
My Dear MT. Linville:-

MY DtdT MT. LlNNlllc.-
 You notice am writing this "Some- were in France" but I cannot tell you the name of the town although l would like to. Left for Camp after I had been in the service five weeks, Had very pleasant trip across the states-six days on the road. Took a northern route, via Salt Lake, Chi cago, Buffalo, etc. Had been at Mills six day when I left for port of em- barkation, which was some little dis tance therefrom. (Another town l cannot mention.) Had splendid voy- age "across," sea being very calm and weather ideal. Have travelled over quite a little of France and can say it is very beautiful, especially where am at present; trees and veg citation everywhere. The farms appear to be very productive in this part of the country and the people seem to be of very good spirit. The setting of our present camp appeals to me more than any place before, but there is that old question: "How long will it be before we have to move again:" Have become so accustomed to moving that it doesn't seem real unless we are moving somewhere, somehow. Have been billeted for the present in bea- utiful old building, constructed of brick, concrete and stone and timber, evidently a grist mill years ago (no doubt a modern and prominent struc- ture 100 years ago, and which is still in a good state of repair.) It makes very comfortable quarters and it's cas-. tle-like appearance adds fair touch of antiquity to the place.
 Was over to England two days about two weeks ago and what I saw of it was beautiful-very much like France in that it has trees and veg citation everywhere and the farming tracts are very, very small; in fact there seems to be more town than country there.
 The climate here is ideal, but it rains about half the time. They tell us we will have rain and snow from now until next March so suppose we will soon get used to it. It is indeed a very great contrast from the beau tiful fall and winter yau are so for tunate to have there in Arizona, and there's one thing sure; I'll take the first train for Arizona when I land in the States again.
 We'll, I suppose you are preparing for another year of school. Regret very much that I cannot be there again this year but my best wishes are with you, faculty and pupils for a very successful year. This army life is great and I think I was very for tunate in getting across so soon after entering the service, for which I am thankful.
 Kind regards to Mrs. Linville and yourself.
 Very respectfully,
 J. A. MOORE.

Three Travellers Come Home.

Three Travellers Come Home.
Esteban Varona made slow progress
toward recovery. In the weeks follow
ing O'Reilly's departure from Cubitas
his gain was steady, but beyond a GER
tain point he seemed unable to go.
Then he began to lose strength. Este
ban awoke to the fact that he was los
ing ground, and his dismay was keen,
for a wonderful thing had come into
his life and he spent much of his time
in delicious contemplative day dreams
concerning it, waiting for the hour
when he would dare translate those
dreams into realities. 1t seemed to him
that he had always loved Norine; GER
tainly she had enshrined herself in his
heart long before his mind had re-
gained it's clarity, for he had come out
Of his delirious wanderings with his
love full grown.
The time came finally when he could
no longer permit the girl to deceive
herself Of him with her brave assump-
ton Of cheerfulness. Norine had just
told him that he was doing famously,
but he smiled and shook his weary
head.
Lets be honest" he said. "You
know and I know that I can't get
we'll"
"You mustn't be discouraged she
told him, earnestly. Remember this is
a trying climate and we have nothing
to do with. Even ehe food is wretched.
I'm going to take you away"
Esteban stroked her hand softly.
"You can't do that, Miss Evans. You
have been wonderful to me and I can't
begin to express my gratitude" No
rine stirred, but he retained his grasp
Of her fingers, gaining courage from
the contact to proceed. II have been
trying for a long time to tell you some
thing. Will you listens"
"Not now" she exclaimed, with a
visible lessening of color. "Don't
bother to tell me now"
"I've waited too long; I must speak.
You have stayed on here just to nurse
me. Isn't that true?"
She nodded somewhat doubtfully.

American Soldiers Can Crush the
Hun Only If Equipped by
American Dollars.
DUTY OF ALL IS CLEAR
War More Than Armies-To Provide
Food, Clothing, Weapons and Hun
dreds of Other Things Is Oppor-
tunity of Those Who Do Not
Offer Lives-Buy Bonds!

America is the Atlas on which the
world is resting. Not only must Amer
lean soldiers fight and win the war
for democracy, but American dollars
must equip and maintain American
armies and, in addition, they must
maintain the armies Of the Alliss.
Never has so colossal a task fallen
to the lot Of any nation; never before
In the history OF the world has any
nation been in a position to accom-
plish such a task. America can do
all that she is expected to do, but
she can only do it if every citizen of
this greatest republic does his full
share.
The war in Europe is more than
the splendid army of young American
manhood fighting under our banners
In Flanders; it is a matter of food,
shelter, clothing, munitions, weapons,
roads, engines, cars, ships, hospitals,
medicines, Of hundreds Of other i'm
portant things that take labor and
