ALASKA POSTAL SERVICE

There is auothccr side to tho story of Che decision of the U. s. Posto1Ice Department on the rejection Of all bids for tho carrying on Of mails to Alaska and the statement that mails i'm the future will be sent by freight or express. It will be recalled that some years ago the postonico depart mcnt deliberately broke its contract for the carrying Of the mails with the Juneau Steamship Company. forcing that concern to go into llouidation. Service was then trans fcrred to a gasboat which conn plctely failed in maintaining the service. said service never having been satisfactorily destored. This is but one illustration of the manner i'm which the Alaska mail service has been mismanaged while on the whole tho various steamships oper- atug have been called upon to han dlo the steadily increasing mall ton- nagc under most arbitrary condi- tions and without fair and just TO- muneration.- Railway and Marine News

CREPE HANGING
 HARD HIT
Writers of Letters to Soldiers Are Cautioned to be Cheerful and
 Optimistic

One of thc Red Cross workers who is at Che front with the soldiers, wrote a lottor the other day to the parents or a boy who is lover there." i'm reply to a request they had made to be informed what they should send to the boy. The first limo in the Red Cross workers letter said. "sond him something funny
 The lottor went on to say that friends Of Che boys should write them often, not long letters, but short. cheerful mlssives. And don't expect tho boy to wrlto to you too oftcn." he said. Letter writing with the boys is hard task, after their other work, and they have little time for writing, and few convent cnccs. So don't expect too many lot ters from tho boys. but wrltc to thom often.
 "Don't burden him with an sorts of useless glfts'-that was further advice. "Ho will likely throw tho non-ossentlals away. He can't take care of them, and ho can generally buy them anyway cheaper than you can send them"
 But here is a part Of the letter that will be encouraging to friends of soldiers: Don't worry 1T Inc ls reported wounded, for nearly every scratch is called a wound and lots of times a slight wound is welcome change. It gives him a rest. And don't worry about his morals; he is getting along in that direction bet ter than 1T he were at homc.'
 No class Of men have a keener appreciation of humor than soldiers. It is probably due to the fact that they see 80 much that is not humor- ous. But at any rate, thc funny stories in the newspapers, the comic pictures. the cartoons ns-thcsc things are i'm greater demand among the troops than anything else in the way of reading matter or literature. The paper printed in tho camps and cantonments for the soldiers abound with wit and humor, and of course thc editors on Che ground understand what the soldiers most desire in the way of reading matter.
