(By A. M. Tonseth)

The assembly of last Monday morn ing was occupied largely by the reading of a letter from B. k. Brit ton, formerly of Alaska but now connected with the quartermaster's department at Camp Lewis, Wash This letter is of general interest, as it gives a description of training camp and the fitting of untrained men for the front. Because of this it is printed in full at the end ol this article.
 The public is always being asked to contribute, usually in cold cash to the Red Cross, the Neuilly hos pital bed fund. Belgian. French and Armenian relief funds and finally to the Halifax relief fund. But we wish to ask for something further that all will be only too glad to supply. The French children need clothes-clothes that are clean and mended and ready to wear, without a button missing. The high school girls are going to undertake the making of clothes for these chil. dren, and ask that the people of Fairbanks and vicinity look over their wardrobes and send to the school anything that can be made over into children's clothing. Ladies, have you any old-fashioned dresses or any that you are willing to give to this work, or have your husbands any discard ed suits? If so, let us know or send them to school by some pass ing child or student. Have you any children's clothing in which there is still strength and wearing quail. ties that your little ones have out. grown? Surely you must have some. thing. Men, have you any old suits which your judgment tells you are not ready for the stove that you are willing to let us have? We will mend garments that are not beyond repair Help us and the needy chil- dren of France by looking over your clothing and let us have all we can.
 One thing more. The girls also desire all shades of bright colored yarn that can either be knit or cro- cheted into caps, jackets and bootees for the children lover there." All donations of either kind will be wei. comed by the school and welcomed far more by the poor. suffering chil dren of France.
 The semester examinations have oc- cupied most of the past week, being given in all grades beyond the sec ond. The second grade pupils, on hearing that the grades above them were having examinations, begged their teacher most earnestly that they might have them. too. By the time they reach high school their wish will be reversed.
 The third and fourth year English classes entertained in assembly Fri. day morning, the following program being given:
 Life of John Bunyan and a brief synopsis of his best work, Pilgrims Progress" Carlson, represent ing the senior class.
 The Life of Virgil-Anita Nordale, of the juniors.

MA FORD JrINS NAVY AVIATION

Word has been received here that Berkeley Manford, nephew of MT. and Mrs. J. H. Groves, of this city, has joined the naval aviation branch of the United States service, and is now in California in training. Man ford was an expert auto driver, and is thoroughly conversant with gas engines. so should be of great ser vice in his department.
 He will be remembered in base ball circles here in Fairbanks as one of the best third basemen and heaviest hitters who ever came to the camp. Every local baseball fan remembers the long drives Manford used to make out to the ploughed ground at the ball park here, and he comes pretty close to having the long distance hit record of this camp.
 There will be a meeting of the Pioneer Women of Alaska Saturday evening at the Odd Fellows hall. Considerable business is to come up, and all members should try to be in attendance at that time. After the business meeting the usual lunch will be served and a social time will be indulged in.

 It is urged that everyone who is doing any knitting for the soldier boys send their completed articles through this Woman's Bureau of the Red Cross. which has been estab- lished here as 1t is in cities Outside to expedite and facilitate the hand ling and shipment of the hand-work of the women of the country, so that it will reach the soldier who needs 1t most, and in the shortest possible time. The Red Cross orga- nization has inspectors in France and in the training camps whose sole work is to study the conditions thoroughly and make a weekly re- port on the same, so that the Red Cross may know all the time just what Is needed most and where. For this reason the request has been made that all the warm hand-knit sweaters and socks. especially, be sent direct to the Red Cross for dis. tribution. since 1t is the agency au- thorized by the war department for this work. The Red Cross will see to it that the men actually in France and facing the hardships ol trench warfare receive the hand. knit warmer articles first. and that if there are not enough to SO around

FOOD ADMINISTRATOR CONTROLS PRICE ON
 SUGAR IN ARIZONA
RETAILER MAY NOT MAKE MORE THAN ONE CENT PER POUND ON HIS SALES; AT SAME TIME WAsHINGToN ANNOUNCES NEW BASE PRICE BEET-CANE

FLAGSTAFF. Ariz., Sept 13.- Prompt action has been taken by the federal iCod administration for Ari- zOna to prevent retail dealers from seliin- sugar at mere than l cent a
 pound profit.
 CliHriGent with the announcement
 from Washington that a new base
 price has been established for beet ahd cane sugar, teiegrams were today sent Co all county food administrators
 in Arizona instructing them assto the method Of arriving at the new retail price or sugar.
 Tho new price to tine refiners at sea board has been fixed, ii is explained. at S9 per hundred To this is added
 the wholesalers margin Of % cents and ;he etaiier's margin Of $l, and the actual freight rom seaboard to the .Cbbcr. Under his plan the price CT sugar will not be increased more than cent pound to the consumer.
 The new price. however, will not af- feet the consumer Lmtil present stocks are disposed uf The food alministra- tion has ordered that there must be 20 increase in price until the present stock of old sugar is exhausted. How ever. carloads set at warehouses or on Uurc lasers' tracks or other private Ira hs after the close Of business Sac- urday. Sept z. have been considered as unbelievable on the opening Of business Monday. Sept 9, and will take the new price. Neither the wholesaler or the retailer is permitted 10 average the cost Of old and new sugar.
 The sugar industry is now under the absolute control of the govern ment. This was effected Sept. 9, when the United States equalization board purchased all refiners' stocks of sugar in the country or in transit at the old price, and Immediately resold them 10 the holders at the new price. By this devise the extra profit which oth- erwise would have accrued to the re- liners has been absorbed by the equalization board which is the gov ernmelt agency charged with the equalization of sugar prices and dis tributiOn.
 In explanation of the new sugar basis. the food administration at Washington has given out the follow ing statement:
 Tn the near future the domestic beet and cane sugar crops will De coming on to the market. The increas- cd cost of producing these crops re- Quires an increase in the price, which can be charged for refiners' sugar. The food administration feels that it will be mere satisfactory if a uniform price for sugar prevails throughout the United States after allowing for ieight differentials than a tw0price system which was developed last fall
 "In any event, it is not proper to allow refiners to sell refined sugar manufactured from raws, purchased at the price of the 1917-1S Cuban crop, at the higher price. One Of the pUr- poses for which the United States sugar equalization board has been in co-pc-ated is for equalizng the price of refined sugar in cases of this kind"
