The next Sunday morning after
the chief had been chosen, Allison
put on her full dress of leader. She
wore dress of killed plaid, half
stockings with pumps, a scotch hat
with red quill. Over her shoulder
she threw sash knotting it one side.
She was pretty picture with her
reddish curls, black eyes and rosy
complexion.
She was too early for church but
she knew there would be some lag
CARDS to make GO to meeting.
She walked gown towards the river
and coming around a bend she saw
Lazy Davy, the town loiterer, whit
Ting and whistling Aud Lang Syne.
Are you ma going to meeting this
fine day. said Allison. "We'el
said old Davy II had ma thot of it" i.
well you better march right up and
60 to church. Davy, without a
word, but look of surprise to be
ordered by lassie. A little farther
on she came upon her lover Jamie
Macleod. Go and get your testa-
ment" said Allison fourishing her
whip. BE shamed on yourself
jamie Macleod. A young lad and
not even in church. Jamie fled
without word surprised to find so
much change in his sweetheart.
Jamie hurried home to get his book
and coming around on one side of
the church he saw Allison with a
crowd of men, women and children
going in the door. The women and
children had look of fear on their
faces and just as jamie was quietly
laughing she said, Hurry in here
the rector is starting, and he start
ed in just as meak as the rest.
The next evening in the woods of
Dunkirk Allison's and Jamie be-
throtal was held. AS was the Gus
tom all the people in the community
gathered around and the four lovers,
for there was another couple, said
charms and played games. A
beautiful yacht was seen coming up
the xiver.
It was Allison's aunt who had
lived in America tor two years where
she and her husband had grown rich.
Hearing of Keith Macdonald hel
brothers death, she had sailed to
Scotland and was now cruising the
river in her luxurious yacht, intend
ing when she went back to take ALI
son with her. Standing back awed
at the sight of the yacht Allison al
at once ,spied her aunt.
The next day jamie and Allison
were married quietly at the rector'

across the river where Jamie ha6
been given position in one of Ali

The Word Umbrella,

The English word umbrella is very
like the Latin, coming through the
italian "ombbrella," or little shade"
The French, German, Spanish and 9th
ers give it distinctive name, such as
Aparapluie," "regenschirm" and para.
guas."
"Umbrellar and "paraso" are ety.
mologically precisely the same thing,
but custom has given them the dis
tinctions that we understand today.

GERMAN PRISONERS
TO REBUILD COUNTRY

Washington. Nov alderman and
Austrian prisoners OF war will prob
ably be utilized In rebuilding terri.
tories devastated BY the enemy.
This was the conclusion drawn By
officials here from the fact that the
armistice terms melted out both to
Austria and Germany provide for the
return of Allied prisoners without
reciprocation." High authorities con-
firmed the belief that the enemy
prisoners would be put to work.
That this course is Justified in
view of the damage done by the
central powers in occupied territor-
lea. and also by the fact that Ger
many took thousands Of Belgians and
French into her own country to
work during the war Is the thought
advanced here. Also the drain OF
war has created q shortage Of man
power in England, France and Bel.
GUM such as will make 1t necessary
for their troops to return home to
work az rapidly as possible.

80 CARS OF BREAD
DAILY FOR YANkS
Soldier Boys In France Are
Great Eaters.

Bread for the American soldiers is
brought to the American base in
France by trainloads from the great
army field bakery a few miles dis
tant--one train of thirty cars a day,
Iall loaded with white bread from the
best of wheat -four
1t was the same with other classes
of supplies. ratlons, forage. fuel and
Ioil--,all came In huge bulk to this
concentrating and distributing point.
for this is one OF the great nerve cen
ters of supplies for the lighting men.
Here the trainlosds are broken up
| into fifteen parts two cars TO a part,
and eachSpart goes toward making up
new automatic train" carrying
supplies of all kinds to the soldiers,
fifteen trains a day automatically
leaving for the front loaded with food
or lighting material
Putting yard engines were doing the
work of splitting up the trains and
reforming new ones. Gradually the
confused mass of cars. the bread and
lmeat trains. melted away, and the 10
automatic trains took definite form.
As they were completed they moved
off to sidings to take their turn In
the steady stream OF trains moving
out to the fighting front This is the
process, repeated day after day, in
the formation Of the automatic trains,
| that marvel OF transportation which
has so bewldered and surprised the
foreign observers.
The last stage as the supplies pass
to the troops at the front is where
the automatic train reaches the rail-
head of the division. Each American
division has It's fixed rallhead, or ter
minal, where the train delivers It's
daily quota. This Is as near the
troops in the field as fighting eondi-
tions win permit But in many cases
It Is not possible to bring the divis-
ions railhead close to the front. so
that in these cases canton transit
fills the gap between the rail.head
and the actual line.
A rail-head officer Is in charge at
these points, reporting back nightly to
headquarters here as to the strength
OF men and animals in the division,

NO REASON CAN BE GIVEN

M. A. s. has written to the editor of the Gateway asking why the government persists in building wharf at Anchorage and spending large sum of money to dredge channel in Cook Inlet when any sane man knows that the ever changing waters of the Inlet will sooner or later leave the wharf high and dry and the dredged DOT ton must be gone over every year to keep it open?"
 This Is question the Editor cannot fathom unless 1t IS to build wharf which will stand as tombstone for somebody's Obstnacy
 Not so many years ago steamers were going to a wharf at Hope Launches do not go to that dock Not so very many years ago launches went to Paers store at Knik Now Palmers store is mile from water. But one can't seem to impress the fact upon those handling the governments money that dredging Cook Inlet and building mammoth dock at Anchorage is a waste. The experiment must be tried And in the meantime war will perhaps continue coal will be short throughout the Unit ed States as it is now and the coal will be kept in the bow els of the earth at Matanuska and other places because there will be way ship it out even if it is mined be- cause a channel must be dredged in Cook Inlet and wharf built It takes money to dredge channel and to build large concrete docks money that should be spent to connect Seward with the coal fields and for the mining of the coal which could be brought to Seward and shipped outside the year round.

THE DUPLICTTY OF THE EIGHT HOUR LAW

An eight hour day for the fishing industry in Alaska has been suspended Attorney General Grgsby in a cent opinion has ruled that government employees do not come under the eight hour law which, in the vicinity of Seward means that the employees of the Alaskan Eng Deeing Commission can work eight hours overtime, etc.
 Peculiar interpretation can also be given to the eight hour suspension as relates to the fishing industry Dur ing the summer months when there is fishing fleet oper aed from Seward the eight hour law would not apply business houses here naSuuch as without the neceSa reS the fishermen could not bring in the fish food and neceSsareS include groceries boots and shoeS bread meat hardware paint clothing and every other article found in Seward today which directly or indirectly af- fleets the fishing industry All business houses carrying the above articles must keep open longer than eight hours clerks must wait fishermen customers eight hours or more if necessary because the eight hour law has been suspended regarding fishing If fishing steamer should arrive here early in the evening" unload and intending to put to early in the morning the merchants must open their stores if the fishermen desire to be accommodated and the law has been broken But the fishing in dustry must be helped The suspension of the eight hour law permits this for the fishing industry
 This summer with the fishing craft coming here the railroad employees working any hours they choose-what
 travesty it that those not engaged in work for the government the fishing industry must labor only eight hours and no overtime.
 The total suspension of the eight hour law for the remainder of the and until labor is more plentiful is absolutely necessary.

Barge Line Needed

In order to carry out the enterprise successfully, it is said it would be necessary to build a small fleet of ocean going barges and about two tugs of average size and power. The claim is made that the barges need not cost more than about $25,OOO each, and ample material for their construction may be had right at home Altogether the transportation layout, it is estimated, should not cost to eX- ceed $2OO,OOO.
 With a mine being worked in the Matanuska fields next spring by To- cal company it is declared that the concern would have a prosperous busi- ness from the start if it would also establish and maintain the barge line. On every trip, it is asserted, the bar ges would be going out from Portland laden with lumber and general freight for delivery to the Alaska Railway commission and to private firms Tn the Far North. On the downward trips they could always bring full cargoes of coal.
 In this connection it also is said that this would solve the problem of furnishing bunker coal to ships load ing at Portland It is also suggested that the enterprise might be handled to advantage by the Port of Port land.

PORTLAND DREAMING
 OF BOATS
 ALAS KA

PORTLAND, Jan. 8. - (SpeciaD. - Groceries, building material and other products of the states are pur- chased annually by the Alaska Rail way commission, amounting in the aggregate to several million dollars. The grocery bill alone ran up to $l,-. 100000 this season. The great bulk of these needs is supplied by the three Pacific Coast states. High prices pre- vail and even under these conditions it has been difficult for the commits sion to obtain all of the commodities required.
 The government railroad has been completed to the Matanuska coal fields, containing immense deposits of the highest grade coal. 1t has with stood the tests made by naval experts. With the rail line finished it will be possible next spring for the coal to be carried from the mines to Anchor age and rcshipped to any point down the coast if ocean transportation faci- Hties are furnished. On account of ice conditions Anchorage is a closed port during the winter months, or this plan could be carried out immediately it is argued, providing a good strong company obtained a lease on mines in the district and would open up mining operations.
 Seward Branch Soon Completed
 An extension of the railroad is be- ing made to Seward, open to naviga ion the year around, and this spur will be completed in few months. It then will be possible for ships to go to Seward at any time of the year and take on cargoes of coal, if some en-. lerplising companies will go into the fields and take out the coal. The gov ornment is conducting limited opera tious in mining the product, but only for the purpose of supplying its own needs in Alaska and the local demand i'm the several towns in the district The plan is to lease the major portion of the fields to private concerns.
 The suggestion has been made that this situation offers an excellent op- oortunity for a Portland company to get in on the ground floor and estab- fish a thriving enterprise. 1t is eX- plained that coal has to be brought in here from other sections to supply the needs of Oregon. The claim is made that Alaska coal could be placed on the local market at a price consider ably lower than the best grades brought in from other outside sour
