Supplies Gathered and Shipped by the Red Cross Society Makes
 a Showing.
WORK OF FEBRUARY
The People of Gastineau Channel Have Been
 Doing Their Bit in Many Ways.

Facts and figures prove Alaskan people to be among the most loyal and patriotic citizens of the ma tion The latest figures bearing up on this subject are those contained in the Red Cross Military Relief Committees report upon the last shipment of Red Cross supplies. These figures indicate the following iinshed articles shipped to head quarters:
 2800 9X5 gauge congresses.
 l,OO5 T-bandages.
 240 pairs bed socks.
 60 suits underwear.
 "A pairs paiamas
 113 sweaters
 123 pairs socks.
 50 pairs wristlets
 25 helmets
 scarfs.
 These supplies represent the Feb ruary work of Thane, Perseverance md Juneau, and though February S the shortest month of the year. the amount of work turned out shows an increase over January's work, which, in turn, surpassed the month preceding.
 The people of Juneau Chapter are giving unstinted support to Red Cross work in all its branches and auxiliaries, and in Juneau itself Juneau women are showing a splen- lid spirit of service, and many are giving three days a week at the work rooms besides extra time spent lpon home work Others, unable to appear thus frequently at the work rooms, contribute valuable as distance by redoubling their home work, while many take advantage of the Monday night session to aid in the work.
 An approximate estimate of the workers at the Juneau workrooms indicates 21S Juneau women en- gagged in Red Cross work, of which number 11S report regularly at the work rooms, while the rest work at home.
 Thane and Perseverance, while possessing fewer workers, are ob- taiping excellent results. Thane is the proud possessor of a record breaking knitter, Mrs. D. J. Giard, who though having the care of a family of four, has attained the un- usual record of knitting four sweat ITS within one week. Any knitter )f sweaters will promptly hand to Mrs Giard the laurels as champion 'tnitter of Alaska, if not of the United States, or of the entire globe.
 Perseverance conducts Red Cross york in a systematic, business-like manner, and each month makes a most gratifying report to the Chap ter.
 Branches at Skagway, Haines. Petersburg, Sitka, and Chichagoff Ire actively engaged in Red Cross york under the jurisdiction of Ju- leau Chapter, while auxiliaries, either white or native, at Juneau, Suloia Bay, Hoonah, Rake, Killis- 100, Kluckwan, Sitka, ad other To- ;alities are most loyalty contribut- ng work and funds tosthe cause Yakutat has native auxiliary in process of organization.
 The Junior Red Cross is strongly organized throughout the Chapter, md is busily engaged in Refugee Relief work, shoulder shawls and infant layettes now occupy their chief attention.
 Everywhere along the line the people of Juneau Chapter, men, women and children have responded enthusiastically to the work of the Red Cross and have given their ime, money and labor. Beyond loubt the response to calls for

NolY tlat tho war is over and peace once more reigns throughout the world America will again be a Nation of shooters.
 The word again is used advsedly. In bygone days, before my time and yours, every American could shoot and shoot straight. Shooting in those memorable days was necessary for the protection of the home and to supply the lardor.
 As the population of the United States increased and America gained wealth and strength through its var jed industries many. of us failed to give the same time and consideration to firearms that our forefathers did Hereafter every son of Uncle Sam will be friendly8with a gun. whether he is now wearing khaki, or still in his teens. We have learned some thing that we will be long time forgetting.
 When the Tanks return home, one twa or three million of them, after Ia years fighting over the battlefields of Flanders, and knee-deep in the muddy trenches of France, and hay ing for companion all this time a rifle or shotgun, they will be expert shooters. The return of the Tanks bring us back to our original state ment that America will again be a Nation of Shooters.
 The day is coming when no city or town, big or small. will be able to meet it's requirements without a gun club. There are now 1923 of these gun clubs fin America and there will he double that number in the days that we will live to see It was these schools of shooting in struction that helped answer the charge of unpreparedness against the United States for they turned out the shooters who in their first fight stopped the Huns and drove the Germans back As x3SI

1 while intolerance" will be shown only Saturday night.
 When one sees these two features they have witnessed the last word in the motion picture achievements. The Birth of a Nation is undoubt-
 edly the greatest educational and
 historical photoplay ever produced
 of the important events that took
 place during the Civil War and the
 immense difficulties that had to be
 overcome during the reconstruction
 period following this great conflict
 All of it's historical scenes are Rso
 duced in perfect replica of the or
 iginal event, as near as it is possi
 ble to show it from the direction of eyewitnesses. It is picture that no American should miss seeing.
 Intolerance" is unquestionably the
 greatest picture that ever was or
 ever will be produced It cost two
 million dollars to stage, and employ
 ed the service of one hundred and twenty-five thousand people in its
 making. The story embOdies four periods of the worlds history, an cient Babylon in all it's original Or iental splendor and grandeur Jerusa lem in the days of Christ, France in the time of Catherine de Medici. and a modern story, all of which correlate and show the same spirit of intolerance in all times. It is q wonderful opportunity to see the events of ancient and medival days reproduced as nearly perfect as his torical fact is known. This will posi- lively be the last opportunity that the people of Alaska will have to see either of these two pictures, and all should avail themselves of the opportunity.

In order to give every person in Juneau an opportunity to see "The Birth of a Nation" and Intolerance w. D. Gross, the manager of the Coliseum Theatre has bought these two pictures for two more days, Fri day and Saturday this week. The owners of the Alaska rights are un- der contract to not produce the pic lures at less than a one dollar price, and this alone prompted MT. Gross to buy these masterpieces, as he felt that number of people did not feel like giving that amount for a
 picture, but would be glad to see it at a popular price, so they will both be seen for the first time on any screen at reduced prices. 'The

DEER INDUSTRY ,, AT NOME IS IN
 FINE CONDITION
Eskimos Have 120,000 Reindeer; Are Shipping Meat to People of the
 States for Cash.

The reindeer industry of the Eski7 mos of Seward Peninsula is thriving, according to Superintendent w. T.. Lopp of Indian Education in Alaska. There are now about 120,000 reindeer in Alaska in the hands of the Ma tiyes, and they are now deriving a considerable revenue from 'the pro- ceeds for reindeer meat shipped to the States. There were two ship ments of considerable size last sum- mer, mostly to Minneapolis and St. Paul. Some of it was used in Se-
 In addition to these shipments, the Natives use the meat for their own subsistence and sell it to the peo- pie of Nome and other Seward Pen insula communities. The reindeer supply many Eskimos with their livli- hood, and many of. them are reach ing a position of affluence through it.
 Recently there was formed so- ciety among the Seward Peninsula NatlVeS where the qudllllcdtlOH loT membership is the ownership of rein deer. The society discusses the care of and uses to which reindeer may be put, and urges thrift and industry upon it's members.
 Speaking of w. c. Shiels, Super intendent for the Bureau of Educa tion for the Second Division with headquarters at Nome, who has done great deal of constructive work in connection with the reindeer indus try among the Eskimos, who died of the influenza recently, MT. Lopp said very valuable man had been lost.
 During his work in the North, said MT. Lopp, MT. Shiels has tray eled over 25,000 miles of Arctic in the summer on the revenue cutter Bear and in the Winter behind rein deer. He inaugurated the mid-win- ter reindeer fairs which were attend ed by people from all over the Sew ard Peninsula"
