Making ShrRpnal.

New inventions have been made by Americans. and American machine tools for shell making have been sent to Europe and are used in the factories there. The number of shells of shrap- nel made in this country Is almost be yond computation. Long before we en- tered the war our different factories were turning out hundreds of thou sands Of shrapnel 6 week, aRd t was due to this demand for munitions that enabled us to turn out the big product we are now making. This iS so not only of Shrapnel, but of powder and explosives of all kinds. Before the war one company was making about 4OO,- 900 pounds of military powders per annum, another was turning out 800 I2-Inch shells per day, and third making 6OOOOO loaded time fuses a month. The orders of the allies ran into many hundreds of millions Of dol lars and it is said that almost S2,OOO,- 100000 worth of war supplies were contracted for by J. P, Morgan X Co. alone

FOOD WINS THE WAR
 DON'T WASTE IT

The people Of AaskIa are facing a crisis. They are confronted with tha necessity for a decsiol as to wgr,her they i'll be guided oy the spirit of optimism which has prevailed for the last five or six years or whether they wlu return she grUuchy days Of tEe decline which followed the locking up Of uh- Territory, when majOrities yot- ed against people and against pro positions rather than for prOgressiY msu uaI for constructive plans. Tn. burdens of war conditions are bearing down heavily, and inc rgwyrauon to get even on some a0dy for hardship is great. The land is filled, with petty politicians, lazy fellows with small minds and ,it-,o OF 10 enterprise, who have To constructive policies and seek rasy berths, who thrive only when a.s.onteut stalks about. who have been trying for some time to pro fugs condition of turmoil. They are mnn who do not fear stagna- ton recause they are stagnant rommuaity progress means nothing 2, them because they know not aow to progress. They are op- pcsca 70 community growth because their importance is greater undel ~--i~siug conditions than growing. rtesa men are working with the
 n.r.5 rhey possess to manufacture liscJutent. The fates which have taken so many of our enterprising a-d patriotic citizens off to fight tor their country in the time of ure7 has added to the numerical importance of these little souls.
 This is a condition which makes F necessary for those who have .ame to this country to live and to 'gY-lop au American citizenry and American civilization here to take counsel and to cooperate. Every dollar that has been invested in Al asaa. every business that has been developed, every home that has been established, every good posi- ton created by enterprise, all the institutions of civilization, are ia jeopardy. It would be an easy matter to set Alaska back fo1 anoth er ten years. The danger that tcera may be period of destruc- rioI is great.
 Not in Q half dozen years has there been g time when it was so necessary for those forward looking men and women who are striving with all their might to improve conditions in this terri tory to face the future, with Pur- prse strong and upper lip stlff' and stand. shoulder to shoulder, by their guns.

 The Empire believes that ma jority Of the people of Alaska are that they are purposeful, trat they are anxious to accomplish something for civilization and for their own. The one necessary thing for them to do in order to get re- suits Is to stand together and hold Empire.

which the singing of the national songs
and patriotic speaking We're evident.
Senator J. J. Barber Of Chicago filled
the place of Clarence barrow on the
program and he was worthy substi-
tute and made a stirring address. All
eyes were turned 10 the flag Of freedom
and all hearts dedicated TO liberty was
the keynote Of his speech, which was
warmly applauded.
The races and all events scheduled
were very much enjoyed by the crowd
and the profits Of the day viii reach far
above the average Attn of July celebra-
ton The crowd was immense. the
grandstand. grounds and dance floor be-
