 According to MT. Hawkesworth's s figures, Metlakatla heads the grand total with ten thousand seven hun dred odd dollars to it's credit; Kla- wock follows with $7,677. Sitka, Rake and Hydaburg come next with forty ynine, forty-eight and forty-seven hundred records respectively; then Hoonah and Yukatat with thirty seven and thirtyone hundreds. Wrangell reached the twenty-six hun dred mark; Haines seventeen hun dred and forty-nine; Juneau sixteen hundred and nine. Douglas broke even with a thousand. Killisno and Klukwan rested on their efforts of the previous year, claiming lack of funds as an excuse for not joining the ranks of the Fourth Liberty bond buyers.
 It must be remembered that apart from the large centers and mining sections, the average Alaskan native of this district has to subsist whole year on his summers earnings Aside from his native environment he has little interest in world affairs and

Just so long as the Alaskan native is regarded as an inferior being and treated as an
 irresponsible dependent, the mapority of his kind will live up to it. But treat him as a responsible party, meet him half way in a square deal, and he responds with surprising cheerfulness.

NEW YORK, Nov. 15.-An interest. track meet, held recently in an Am erican Army base town in France has reached this country. In part it is as follows:
 Before the war, the park where the events were held had been un- doubtedly well cared for, but the scarcity of man-power for nOn-essen tial pursuits accounted for the grass grown walks and tottering fences. The grandstand, indeed, held vivid reminder of the struggle in progress many miles to the north of us, for it was packed from floor to ceiling with war supplies.
 Most of the events at an army track meet are run off in military form. No spike shoes or running suits are allowed, the contestants being put on their marks in ordinary army brogans, the regulation puttees and army brooches. This meet, how every, was more pretentious and the contestants began to make their ap- pearance in long-forgotten running suits. Although billed as a Franco American meet, there was a sprink- ling of other pationalities, drawn from the armies of the Allies. Be fore the interested crowd they linn bered up their muscles and tested the boards at the jumps
