WOMEN MN
 W|NSOhE WORD

Charley Walker says he has changed his mind about women workers. This change was caused yesterday when he was assisting in packing up the shipment of clothes and shoes for the Belgians which the ladies of the local Red Cross have had under their care.
 Charley said that he has always heard that it was proverbial that there was more talking than wor king at women'a gatherings, but yester- day afternoon he declares the la dies worked as If their lives de, oendel on it and not a word was heard but the necessary talk incl dent tn the packing, weighing and labelling of the boxes. All of which tells in a few words how well the women of skagway appreciate the needs of the hour and are endeaVor' ing to ameliorate the suffering d. rising from the cruelty Of .kultur. The more power to them.

LIBERTY LOAN COMMIT
 TEE REPORT PROGRESS

A. the meeting of the Fourth Li- berty Loan committee last night at the Bank of Alaska, reports were made by the sub-committees and good Irogress was reported. Over halI of the people who were listed have heen seen and almost every on, has subscribed or promised to do so and the committee is satis- fled thst the Skagway quota will be more than subscribed.
 The fact that the Alaska Packers Association had subscribed Alaska's quots has not dampened the ardor of any one who has been seen and the desire that skagway make good was evident on every side.
 It has been noticed that those who had relatives at the front were subscribers and were willing to make great sacrifices in order that there should be nothing needed at the front that money could buy.
