 All in Their Power to Make the Boys Feel n at Home.
(By Isabel Ambler Gilman


 Patriotism appears to be the domi. nant note in Alaska these days, and in no place could it be more pro- nounced than in the town of Haines where clocks are timed twice day by the boom of the Fort Seward gun
 It may be that the war is made more realistic by marching squads in khaki, extending their exercises through the main streets of the town on sunny afternoons, and by the uniformed audiences at every public gathering, but certain it is that nc one could remain long in this gar den spot of the North without being impressed by the wholesome respons es to public duty.
 The white school, with an enroll ment of thirty-two, has already pur chased six hundred and sixty dollars worth of War Stamps, and contribut ed it's quota to the Fourth Liberty Loan. It's teachers, Mrs. H. F.. Will son and Miss Mary Sloan, have done duty as Four-Minute men at the To cal theatre, and are now putting ir their spare time drilling the children for a patriotic celebration of Alaska Day, October 18th, the proceeds o! which are intended foF the purchase of large Flag.

demanded his people to observe the laws of the country. One of his chief hobbies was to keep in touch with high officials of the country, and his collection of letters, pictures, and trophies from Russian and American officials during the past seventy years are contained in several large cases and regarded as beyond price.
 Since the acquiring of Alaska by the United States, the old Chief never failed to get personal com munication from each of the newly elected Presidents and has many of their pictures, together with person al souvenirs of nearly all the high officials at Washington and the Gov ernors of Alaska.
 At Christmas time, the old Chief often presented the Governors oi Alaska with one of the famous Chil kat blankets, the value of which equals that of the Navajo variety and cannot be purchased for less than $100.
 His collection will be displayed in National Museum some day and the history of his life so far as can be learned, published to the world.

None of his relatives seem to know his age, but all the Natives claim he was considerably over 100 years of age.
