Enthusiastic Meeting to Plan for Red

 to Go Over the Top in Contributions.

to Go Over the Top in Contributions.
 The final arrangements in the big drive for funds by the committee of the Baltic branch of the Norwich Red Cross chapter were completed on Tues day evening when a meeting was held in the fremen's room in the town building to devise ways and means to carry on successful campaign.
 Chairman Charles Barnes of the committee instructed the workers and offered suggestions as to how the cam paign solicitors should work. The big drive opened Monday evening with street parade in which members of local societies participated. The mem bers of the Baltic Dramatic club and Choral society gave an entertainment in St. Jeans hall after the parade.
 Mrs. James G. Burr, general chair man of the committees, has been as sured by the business men and resi- dents of Sprague that it will be over the top when the final result is an- l nounced. Confident that they are well come to call at every home in this village, the. solicitors began their work on Tuesday evening and canvassed the | different sections assigned to them | They were very successful as the fol- lowing amounts were collected, $2416 | Tuesday evening Miss Agnes Bren- nan, treasurer of the local branch, was given $57.62, the amount derived from 1 the play given Monday evening.
 | George Morin, proprietor of the Baltic inn has generously given the use of the Baltic bowling alleys to the | ladies of Sprasue to be used on after moons during the campaign. Friday night the gentlemen and ladies ot | Sprague are entitled to the use of the alleys. All receipts taken in are to be donated to the Red Cross fund
 1 The following captains are in charge of the different teams: Thomas Suili- van, w. c. Park, Lawrence c. Dresch- CT, Aime Gordon. Charles F. Charon Louis J. Fontaine, John Chadwick Napoleon Duff and Wilfred Grenier Misses Ethel Mullen, Rena Smith.
 Honor Flag.
 An honor flag displayed above a window at the Red Cross room in the town building signifies that Sprague exceeded it's quota. The allotment foI Sprague was S61, 1900, but the canvass CTS were not satiied when they ob- tained this amount With renewed courage they started in to go it a few | better. They did their best and when /! the closing hour came Sprague was l $20,G00 over the top.
 A number of the men who helped tC put Sprague on the honor list during the Liberty loan drive are on the Red Cross committee and Baltic people are confident that the score will be shot Eacross the line and knocked for a goal and then some!

 George C.

HaZelet does not hope to strike any gushers but feels confident that when the wells are driven below the strata of shale the output will be increased to several hundred barrels day.

INEVITABLENESS OF DEATH REFUTED
 BY STATISTICS

The common belief that death is the inevitable end of aviators who rise to be aces if they only continue in their risky business long enough, has prompted the suggestion that after a certain number of victories these men be retired with honor and not per mitted to go on until fate overtakes them. But the plan takes for granted the inevita bleness of death, which is refuted by the statistics, and it also fails to take account of the feelings of the aces themselves, who doubtless
 would be among the last to sanction
 it. Provision is already made for re-
 tirement with full honor of aviators who have acquitted themselves with
 credit but who feel that they have lost their nerve" and no one thinks
 less of those who avail themselves of the privilege, but for successful one, in full possession of all his flyin fac
 ulties, to forego the excitement of just
 one more go at the enemy would be almost unthinkable. The issue for the present is safe in the hands of the aviators themselves.

feeding the Allied armies and those millions of peoples behind the lines, left destitute and absolutely dependent on Uncle Sam to feed them.
 A soldier needs more food than the ordinary civilian because his life is more strenuous. Moreover, his whole diet must be made practically from wheat, meat, fats, sugar, condensed milk and coffee, for excepting a few varieties of canned vegetables, these are the only foods that it is possible to ship to him from distance.
 Furthermore, Uncle Sam must lay up vast reserve stores of these foods to meet emergencies-such as food lost during battle food sunk by sub marines, food spoiled in transporta- tion and bad crops next year.
 Just how we'll fed the American sol diers are and just how we'll Uncle Sam is able to meet one or all of these emergencies depends on how thrift fly American men and women save wheat, meat, sugar and fats.

WAR GARDEN PARTIES SHOULD BE POPULAR
 ALL THE YEAR

If the suggestion of the United States Food Administration are heed. ed, garden parties, instead of teas and receptions, will be the vogue for the period of the war
 The garden parties are not to be entertainments on spacious lawns lighted with lanterns and dotted with tables on which rare food delicacies are served, but garden parties in the
 sense that on all occasions the food will be furnished from the home or local gardens.
 According to the Food Administra.
 tion, for church supper, political rally, Sunday school picnic, or a company dinner" it is far more patri- otic to use foodstuffs out of the home or local gardens than to eat the food freighted into town, because trans portation is the greatest problem of
 the war and shipping space the most precious thing in the world.

CHARLES PINE CHARGED WITH A
 SERIOUS CRIME

On a complaint sworn to yesterday, Charles Pyne was taken into custody charged with the violation of Chapter 60, Session Laws of Alaska, which charge is seditious utterances. The complaining witness was Chief of Pc lice Frank Wiseman.
 The offense as alleged in the com. plaint was a statement of the ac. cused alleged to have been made in the Fairview hotel on June 15, and in which he said: "The conscription act is a slur on the republic. The con scription act is joke. The rich man doesn't have to go and the poor man does. To me personally it makes no difference if the allies or Germany wins the war. The United States has three men paid to lecture about the war and to lie to and fool the public.
 On his arrest by Deputy Marshal H. R. Full, he was immediately brot before Commissioner Heilig for ar raignment, and when asked as to his plea entered that of not guilty. Bonds were fixed in the sum of $700, pending which he is confined in the federal jail. The hearing has been set for Wednesday June 26.
 Pyne was at one time an operator on Ester creek and served as foreman of the grand jury during the incum- bency of J. J. Crossley as district at- torney Fairbanks Citizen.

 But Yin Hepatica has changed all that I don't have to get up at all in the night. I now eat potatoes, beans, onions-anything had about decided I could not nor would not live another week, but after I saw in the papers what Yin Hepatica had done for others In the same fix, I thought would try 1t and now feel better than have felt in forty years. Have put in 21a dayN solid work this week and am going to Start in for full time Monday.
