ALASKA MAY GET
 CREDIT FOR MONEY
 GIVEN BY KENNECOTT

The Kennecott Corporation con tributed through it's New York of flee $25,000 to the recent Red Cross drive, and it was credited to New York. T. A. Davies. chairman of the Alaska committee that worked to get Alaska contributions from the Alaska companies which have offic- es in Seattle, is endeavoring to have this sum credited to Alaska.
 The Seattle Times of June F con tains the following concerning the work of Mr Davies and the Alaska committee at Seattle:
 Q Champaign Manager T. A. Davies of the Seattle-Alaska committee for the recent Red Cross drive, has pre- pared his final report which shows that Alaska subscribed a total of more than time times it's original quota, which was placed at $20,O00
 "The total figures show that out of population of 23,365 credited to the fifteen districts of Alaska 19,2S9 subscriptions were made, amounting Io PISI,iIV'Jo. 1Hc QuOld was uOu bled after the campaign started to a total for the fifteen districts of $39,450, so the final report shows the total received as being three times the amount of the second ap portionment d'
 The Kennecott Copper Corpora tion donated to the Alaska Red Cross the sum of $25,000, but this was paid through the New York City committee. It is hoped, however, that this amount can later be trans ferred to the credit of the Territory of Alaska, which will still further increase the amount of Alaska's re markable showing. Davies has also received two automobiles which will be disposed of for the Italian War Relief Work with the consent of all interested. Of these two ma chimes, a touring car was donated by Supt. c. H. Miles of the Alaska Mines Corporation. The committee working for the Italian War Reliei purchased the other car. These will be disposed of at the Arctic Club July 4th the entire proceeds to be sent to the Italian convalescent Hospital, conducted by Americans at Rome, Italy.

 After several people had worked on her, for about two hours, the child began to show some signs of life though she did not regain con sciousness for ten hours.

HUN PROBABLY
 PLANS ATTACK ON
 THE BRITISH LINES

BRITISH HEADQUARTERS IN THE FIELD, June 27.-In his mad race for a victory this Summer the German is straining every nerve While the battle rages against the French between Noyon and Mont didier, the enemy is exhibiting fever ish activity along most of his front opposite the British.
 At present there is no indication that his thrust toward Paris will be immediately carried out. It seems certain that the Hindenburg Lueden dorff plans call for another big bat tie in the near future on the British front. That engagement should solve the Rupprecht riddle. for Rup precht. still has more than twenty divisions in reserve for any often sive.
 The war has reached such stage that no amount of camouflage, if i were used, could cover up the enc my's activities. He is developing big ger ammunition and supply dumps His railway sidings and termini arr proportionately increasing. and st are his aerodomes. And in his mex offensive he expects. perhaps. to have more casualties than ever before judging from the number of hospital! arising.

GENEVA, June 27.-Several Ger man newspapers openly attack the speech made by the Kaiser at Ger man great headquarters on the occas- ion of his anniversary.

High Food Value Proved.

rated by an exhaustive investigation

These experts urged that because
OF the superIative value Of milk IN
the dietary and because its products
are the cheapest animal foods we
have, the production of milk should
be encouraged as a means of national
safety now and national vitality for
the future.
