BUILDING ROADS IN ALASKA
Road Commissioners Find Trouble In
Maintenance. on Account OF Mar.
row Tired Trucks.

Alaska has been building roads since
1905. 1t has built 920 miles of wagon
roads, 500 miles of winter sled roads
and 2,210 miles Of trails. One of these
roads was built for motorcar traffic,
but more than $50 trucks and passen-
ger cars were in use over them at the
close of the last fiscal year.
Much damage has been done to the
roads by heavy narrow-tlred trucks,
and the board Of road commissioners
finds troubles of maintenance with
them always. In addition. they found
1t necessary to build five-mile road
along hillside last summer by cover
ing the road bed with willow cordu-
roy and surfacing the corduroy with
gravel because the material underlying
the location consisted of six feet of
gravel on the bed rock, forty feet of
clear Ice on the gravel and two feet of
moss and tundra on top.

SCOUTS AIDING THE NAVY.

Immediately following the declara-
ton Of war steps were taken to effec-
lively organize. along lines similar to
the coast guard work Of the Boy
Scouts Of England. older boys special
~ selected In order that there might
be available a resource for use by the
navy department, should the occasion
warrant.
Special organizations were perfect
ed covering a large part Of the Allan
tic coast line, and In each case the boy
enrolling secured special permission OF
his parents. All Of their work was
done privately.
The boys agreed to hold themselves
In readiness for any emergency call
They also undertook to make a careful
survey Of the actual conditions In
definitely prescribed territory so that
there might be available information
as to the full resources Of the com
munity In case Of disaster, including O
list Of all houses suitable for hospital
purposes, names Of all doctors, infor
nation about all automobiles, motor
boats, etc, which might be Of service
In addition to this, In some Of the
naval districts, boy scouts co-operatet
in the early days of the war In locating

WHAT FOREIGN SCOUTS DO.

We must produce food as never be
fore to keep America for Americans.
Secretary Houston urges the boy
scouts to double their production Of
food In 1918. 1t can be done. The
scouts Of every country In the world
have made good.
Belgian boys carried dispatches
through the very enemy's lines when
the most skillfully trained soldier cou.
riers failed. Belgian scouts gave up
their lives rather than betray the Sc
crtSs Of their country.
French and English scouts have
many times secured information abso-
lutely necessary for the safety Of their
countries armies.
Certain 1t Is that American boys
would live up to the records made by
these European scouts, even to the CIV
ing up of their lives If their country
needed these supreme sacrifices.
American scouts, scoutmasters and
scout commissioners already are In the
trenches of Liberty's front lines de-
Tending civilizations freedom from
barbarian onslaught.
