WICK ADDRESSES
 ANCHORAGE VOTERS

According to telesraphic adviccs received from the Anchorage Times yesterday afternoon, the News is informed that Judge Wickersham addressed an audience of 800 people in the railroad town Monday night. His speech was made at the Empress theater.
 The talk was simialr in many respects to the address delivered in Nenana. Wickersham questioned Sulzer's loyalty, referring to him as a stacker. He also arraigned the Democratic ring, and paid a high tribute to President Wilson, and compared his own record with that of the present delegate.
 The Anchorage paper says that Wickersham is making a splendid impression among the people of that section of the territory and ex- presses the belief that he will carry Anchorage and neighboring district by substantial majority. It is the intention of Wickersham to visit Chickaloon, Matanuska, Eska and other towns in the Anchorage dis trict.

TRAIN SERVICE OUT OF SEWARD
 |S ANNOUNCED

ANCHORAGE-The first through train from Seward arrived in this city early Monday evening, having negotiated the distance between the two towns without incident and at good rate of speed. Officials of the Alaskan Engineering commission are authority for the statement that a regular schedule will be inaugu- rated at an early date to accommo- date the travelling public and to de liver railroad material at the front which will reach Seward from the States during the winter months.

continue after your tactful remark,
but If he should you should speak
to him in low, confident tone, let
ting him understand that he Is to
discontinue making comparisons be-
tween his possessions and those of
the others.
One mother wrote a few days ago
that her two boys were extremely
jealous of each other, which Jealousy
L found was due to her putting too
much emphasis upon which one beat
dressing in the morning. She should
not have spoken about beating at all,
but should have spoken encourag-
ing words to both about how quickly
they accomplished their tasks.
Do not allow an older child, or any
one in your family, to talk about
being put upon or about others
being more fortunate, in any way,
because this not only makes a bad
example. but the habit itself in the
one speaking only brings more un-
happiness.
Search out a good point in others
about you and tell those. in your
children's presence. If you accustom
your children to 1t while they are
young, they will learn actually to
like to hear and tell about the good
points and traits in those about them
They will like it as well, in fact,
as poorly trained children seem to
like gossips and fault-finding.
Approve your children a great deal,
and as a general rule, make it a point
to approve all the children in your
presence in some way rather than
singing out some one. The spirit of
jealousy will gradually leave your
home and feelings of pleasure and
happiness will take it's place.
Harrisburg telegraph. [volume] (Harrisburg, Pa.) 1879-1948, 1918-12-05

Does your child show signs of
jealousy?
A jealous person generally is un-
popular. He is pessimistic, self-cen-
tered, he pities himself and often as
sumes an anti-social attitude toward
those whom he inwardly admires and
with whose talents and accomplish
ments he is always comparing his
own.
1t is all we'll and good for us to
have pride in ourselves and even to
strive to excel, but selfishly to COM
pare ourselves others brings unpleas-
ant thoughts and invariably leads to
unhappiness.
Jealousy in adulthood is the result
of jealousy in childhood. AS parents,
let us not permit this detestable and
degrading trait to develop in our
children.
Even our child only eighteen
months old shows decided signs of
Jealousy, is this not unusual? Please
ADVISE cure" writes one mother.
Jealousy in child as young as
eighteen months is not uncommon.
While it is a habit, yet it will not
be nearly so difficult for you to over
come as II the child We're several
years older.
Let us look for the causes of
Jealousy. Perhaps the most common
cause is that the child thinks that
some one else is treated better han
he is. This idea is very often fostered
by an older child who has a slight
tendency to bully. For example, an
older child may, through his love for
teasing, hold up something which the
younger child cannot have merely
to taunt the latter.
jealousy is also caused by SIM
pie imitation. When any member of
the family is seen by younger child
TO assume the attitude that he is
not getting square deal. the young
er child will very quickly assume a
similar attitude. And after the
child is allowed to practice this at
lude on consecutive days, it becomes
a habit.
To cure this habit, the causes men
toned above must be entirely re-
moved. When you have playthiugs
or candy, or anything to give to the
children, divide them in such a way
that all will be satisfied. Laugh and
make them all have q good time.
Simply do not tolerate any one child
to compare his gift or privileges with
that of any one else. Comparisons
stimulate children to jealousy. There
fore, do not permit them to be made
at all.
To avoid antagonizing the child
who starts to make a comparison saw
somS'aing like this, Yes, yours is
nice, and brothers is nice, too. They
are both nice" The child who start
ed the comparison will probably not

Mr.. ]. A. McCrea, we'll known
resident Of San Francisco, who was
called Daddy and Grandpa on ac-
count of his white hair. and who

made mixture, recently made the fol-
lowing statement:
Anyone can perpare simple
mixture at home, at very little cost,
that will darken gray hair, and make
it soft and glossy. To a half pint
of water add 1 ounce of bay rum, a
small box of Barho Compound and
u ounce of glycerine. These in
gradients can be bought at any drug
store at very little cost. Apply to
the hair twice week until the de-
sired shade is obtained. This is not
a dye. 1t does not color the most
delicate scalp. is not sticky or greasy
and does not rub off. My friends

EAGER FOR FRIENDSHIP
EAR MISS FAIRFAX:

DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
I am Fl and a few weeks ago went
to work for a concern that offered me
unlimited opportunities. I was invit-
ed to my employers home for dinner,
and met his daughter. Since then she
has paid me almost daily visits. I find
that am interested in her and am
beginning to think she is interested
in me.
Would it be proper for me to ask
her to go to q theater with me, and
how should I go about it2 Or should
1 wait till she invites me to her home
1 am very anxious to have her as my
friend, because l have no girl friends
and IL / did really meet the one /
could like, life would probably look
better to me. Her father. my em-
ployer. likes me very much and treats
me like his son.
A FRIEND.
I should say that you had an un-
commonly radiant prospect. Since
your employer is so friendly and the
young woman herself so frank in her
liking for you. why need you be
ttmid? BY all means invite her to the
theater If you wish. You might write
her note of invitation, or telephone
her IL you prefer. and at the same
time ask her what play she would
like to see.

I that was all wrong for him? Has
he ever asked the least bit of n
| lift from me? Why, little lady. he
wouldn't even accept favors from
his own country, When he couldn't
fight for her did he let her fit
him to an easy job? Not Jimmie!"
You're leading somewhere. Ter
ry. Show us your goal" said An
thony Norreys with n quiet air of
authority You brought me here
to win over n proud little woman
so she would persuade her husband
to take on this job of mine. And
she and I have concluded that
there's far more patriotism and
commonsense than pride involved.
So we've made the work all clear
to her, and now she's ready to put
it up to her husband. Now where
is-the hitch?"
"Jim's stubbornness.H said Terry,
and set his lips so firmly that my
anger died in amusement.
"Of course. this isn't what they
call a fixed idea of yours, Captain
Terry" l smiled. You aren't just
imagining difficulties and insisting
on them. Oh. no."
mo, by Jove-I'm not" Terry Wig
orously protested. Listen, you
two. For two years before bad
shoulder pulled me out of the Air
into the Infantry, Jimmie and I
were in the same squadron. 1 know
the boy-and there's only one thing
he isn't brave enough to face. But
he's fair hipped on never being in
debted to a pal for a lift in his
work. He might smoke my last

a hard fight and 1 tried to divert
the Hun fire from his machine, he'd
blaze out at me when we got back
to camp. Don't you feel the truth
of that Mrs Jimmie?"
Yes" I confessed slowly, II do"
For the memory had come to me
of how Jim could accept casual So
cial attentions from his friends
dinners and motor rides, where
he felt that his society repaid them
and yet how he had told me pas
sionately that he'd starve before
he'd ask one of them for help in
finding work. 1 had let Jim take
the inspectorship, which had shat
tered his newly recovered health.
So far l hadn't helped him at all on
the road to finding his place in the
business world. And now, If his
devoted friend, Terry Winston, had
a plan to aid my boy-I dared not
refuse it a trial.
Captain Terry, I'll not be a party
to the deception OF my husband,
but if you see a way TO help Jim
without his knowing, I'll not stop
YOU" 1 said quietly. 1t was q VOW.
Il want more than that - your
help. Now listen. Up to the point
of saying that this job can't be
handed to Jim as a gift-we agree,
don't we?"
