FRENCH REFUGEES
 HAVE NO HOMES TO
 SEEK SHELTER IN

PARIS, Nov. 21.-Carrying their little bundles of household posses sions, the French refugees are re- turning to their homes in Chateau Thierry and the little French vii. lafes around it, to Vaux, Lucy, Bel leau, and the rest, places now a part of American history.
 They are coming back to ruins of villages and houses demolished by German or American artillery, to live in cellars and in the shelter of tottering walls until they can re- build their homes and their return is a pitiful spectacle.
 Sometimes they find no home at all. Never do they find any furni- ture. Often they find no food, and then the American Red Cross steps in and helps them. The woman who can dig her stove from a heap of dirt and plaster and patch it up again so that it will burn counts herself inordinately lucky. One woman found remaining of all her house hold goods just one big salt-cellar Forks are worth their weight in gold, and a feather bed is prized above rubies Five thousand five hundred blankets the Red Cross shipped out to returning refugees in single week.

AMERICAN SAILORS SHOW GREAT NERVE
 WHILE SUFFERING

PARIS, Nov 21.-The spirit ot American soldiers passing through casualty stations is admirable. One "doughboy' from Kansas hobbling up to an American Red Cross can teen on one leg and crutches, shout ed, "Here I come. I'm only hitting on three cylinder but still able to get about"
 Another boasted of his luck be- cause he had only three shrapnel wounds, one in his hand, one in his shoulder and one in the back.
 An American Red Cross canteen at a receiving station oftens offers men their first chance to talk over their experiences. They stand around with a cup of chocolate in one hand, cookies in the other, and fight their fights over again until officers have to drive them to the dressing rooms.

 It is said that a physician is badly needed at Unga. and that there is an excellent opening for one there. Mrs Katherine Stroup, an old and well known pioneer of the Northland. died recently at Seattle. She came to Dawson in 1902, later removing to Fairbanks. A few weeks ago she visited in Fairbanks, returning to Se- attle. On the boat from Cordova she was taken with an illness which cul minated in her death Surviving her are four daughters, two of whom are married in Seattle and two of whom live in Alaska.
 Some time ago request was made | to the government by Jules A. Mari on and James Wigger for official per mission to conduct a tram business at a place known as the Log Jam on the Tolovana river. The request has been granted and the tram will be in stalled which does away with the ne- cessity of portaging over a bad part of the river, the logs having obstruct cd navigation in the stream for some years.
 The appearance of moose and cari bOu in the suburbs of Dawson has kept the nimrods of the realm busy the last few days. Many caribou have been seen near town, on both sides of the Yukon river, and num- Der have been shot. Fred Reynolds, | living in the Sunnydale district, saw a band of caribou and one moose at the haystack near his house.

lately for a wedding trip to More

Quite bit of excitement was
created in Stanton by the appear
ance of a harmless old lady, Mrs.
Ann Simmons who formerly lived
at Richmond, but had been a nurse
most of her life. She was taken for
a spy by many and treated as such,
but she was not. Her mind had
been a little unbalanced once before
in earlier years and such was her
case this time. However, we believe
spy would receive rough treat
ment at the hands of Stanton peo-
pie if one were to appear here and
we wouldn't blame them at all.
They had better stay away from
our town if they know what is good
for them.
Charley Wells, of Torrent, came
in Monday night to be at school.
His mother took him up to Jackson
to enter him in school but Charley

By the way we do have as fine
school here as you can find in Feat
ern Kentucky. And its going to be
finer every year. Mr.. Giffen tells
the writer that the Board is going
to put up large dormitory for the
girls that will be up to date and
modern, with laundry outfit, cleo
trio light, hot and cold water all
over the building and many other
conveniences. i on had better open
your eyes and watch Stanton Col
lege grow. Better make reserva-
tons now to get your girl in that
new dormitory for it is going to be
put up this summer. A man came
he Tuesday night to look over the
sight anc draw up plans for it. Mr..
Giffcn will go to Tennessee this
week to look over q new dormitOry

Principal to see if such building

letter was received from James
Atkinson this week in which he tells
of many interesting things in
France. He has been in the tren-
ches and faced the enemy but at
the writing of this letter was on a
furlough to one of the famous wat
ering places of Europe for a rest.
He said the good women of Ameri-
ca made this possible for the boys |
and the soldiers appreciated it
so much. James also told of the
marvellous work the Army Y. M.
c. A. is doing and that the SOL
diers could not get along without
them. He spoke of meeting Mrs.
Teddy Roosevelt, Jr., and how she
was trying to help the boys have
4 good time while there. Several
times James spoke of the wonder
full work of the Y. M. c. A. and so
let us all help to carry on this great
work. 1t seems that the boys APP
preciate this more than any other
thing while they are on the battle
field. A picture OF James came in
the letter and he looks as natural
as can be. He said he would have
to return to the front soon and en-
er the trenches. We trust that he
will come seafely through TO the |
