GOVERNMENT TO
 HAVEFACT0RY

LONDON, May 15.-An official sausage factory is being opened in London suburb under the control of the ministry of food for the man. ufacture of various kinds of meats which do not come within the "a. tions.
 As the ministry of food cannot embark on business enterprise, the concern has been incorporated as the National Meat Products, Limited with a paid-up capital of two shil. lings. The board of directors, nom. mated by Lord Rhondda, are mum. Der of food experts employed at the ministry of food. A treasury grant has been made of sufficient funds to launch the enterprise, but this sum is to be repaid to the government out of the first profits.
 The intention is to put on the market foods made from by-products of the slaughter house which have been heretofore wasted. The chief products will be sausages and so. called black buildings" or meat pies.

M0VlESTOAD
 IN INFORMATION

LONDON, May 15.-The new min. istry of information has sent out Q fleet of ten automobile moving pic. ture shows. designed to exhibit war films in villages and outlying dis tricts. The screen is set up in the open air at a distance of about 100 feet from the "cine-motor-car," and the installation is powerful enough so that even at dusk 10000 persons can see the pictures with ease. The crews of the ten cars consist entirely of soldiers who have seen service in France
 The selection of films include the usual run of official pictures, one illustrating Great Britain's progress in Zeppelin building. another showing British bOmb-dropping squadrons in flight, another of tanks in action and several showing Americas war eff. fort. The lighter touch is supplied by a number of war cartoons.

LARGE NUMBER
 STAMPS BOUGHT

In a recent checking of the num- Der of stamps sold by the banks and the post office the large sum of $125,7O0 was found to be the total This includes both the war savings and thrift stamp sales.
 Juneau recently made public the fact that $l75,O00 worth had been disposed of there, which is a truly remarkable performance. But Juneau has large number of people to purchase them. The limited number of people in the interior makes the sale in Fairbanks loom up greater. especially so when other amounts that have been raised for war pur- poses are taken into consideration.
 The statement of this large amount need not deter the public from fur ther investing in these small securi ties, and it should be the endeavor to make the sales equally as large during the future as in the past

RESIDENTS OF
 FOX BECOMING
 MARINERS NOW

From reported conditions existing at Fox it seems that the residents and miners there have abandoned the mining game and are taking les sons in deep sea sailing. The water at that place is overflowing the creek until it is broad sheet of water. Some few days ago the statement was made that the mine operators there could not operate for the lack of water. Since the commencement of the warm weather there has been an abundance and then some, the weather man putting the reverse English on weather conditions.
 The bridge which crosses Gold stream at that place took notion that change of scenery was about due and started off down stream. Those present took exception to the bridge leaving without notice and moored it with strong cable.
 Some little excitement was occa. stoned about the time the bridge moved. Six head of horses were being taken over the structure and it moved just enough to let one of the animals into deep water. Several men jumped to it's rescue and after few minutes of hard work 1t was safely landed. It is reported that quite a few took their annual bath at the same time.
 The main channel of the stream has been obliterated by the gravel from claims 10 and Il washing down and filling in the course of the creek, causing it to spread over consider able ground.
 On the higher elevations several cleanups of small dumps have been made, which have proven better than was anticipated. This lucky event has tendency to dispel the gloom that might otherwise prevail.
 Some of the residents threaten to break quarantine today and will come to Fairbanks for short visit. E. E. Drouin will chauffeur the party in a prairie schooner and carry the pas. sengers, among whom will be MT. and Mrs. E. B. Collins. No difficulty is expected in making the trip. as the deepest part that will have to be forded has depth of not more than IS inches.
 Several oldtime sailors there are constructing boat and will give lessons in navigation for the benefit of the landsmen, who are lost when the water gets knee deep.

On the departure of the steamer Panama from Nenana among those taking passage for the Outside were MT. and Mrs. G. Fenton Cramer. Dr. and Mrs. M. E. Smith, Jack O'Neil and Jack Grier.
 MT. and Mrs. Cramer will proceed to Juneau, where Mir. Cramer will assume the position of secretary to the governor. Dr. Smith will report at one of the government camps in California and Mrs. Smith will make her home in San Francisco. Jack O'Neil, who for some months has been in charge of the warehouses, will go to Seattle. Grier, who has been employed in the office of the storekeeper, will also make his home in the Sound city.

HEADED
 FOR OUTSIDE

On this mornings stage as pas sengers will be Harry Martin. Roy RynearsOn and Guy BurclI. all of whom were employees of the N. C. stage company. With the closing of the company's operations in the transportation line the men decided to go Outside and enlist in the ser. vice of the United States as pack. CTS, for which there is a great de. mand.
 All of these men have host of friends in the north who much re- gret their departure, and none so much as their former employers For many years these boys have braved the storms of the trail in the line of duty, and will go forward al the front as unflinchingly as they did in their northern work. Many of their friends will be at the office to give them a good send-off

AN OFFICERS
 TRAINING IS
 VERY THORO

CAMP LEWIS, Wash, May 15.- An officer one day, kitchen mee ,anic the next. That is part ot ns training given the men at the officers train- ing camp at Camp Lewis and it's all part of the days work for the sew officers in the national army new officers in the national army which makes them familiar with every phase of work among the men whom they will be expected to com mand.
 Most of the men have had exten- sive training in the details of sol diery from the enlisted mems view point, however, for they are drawn from the ranks. Not much of the details of the training of the officer is permitted to be published, but it is permissible to say that the embryo officer has very strenuous three months, if he is fortunate to last throughout the training period.
 The third officers training camp at Camp Lewis was finished April 20 and the fourth camp has just started.
 There are interesting scenes about the training camp. It looks very much like the training battalions of the depot brigade, except that in stead of leather leggings and gold and black cords, the officer is desig- mated by a white band around his left arm and all students are dis inguished from the ordinary soldier by the red. white and blue hat cord The non-commissioned officers wear a red arm band.
 The officers are selected for period of one week and the following week they are assigned to the ranks while another candidate becomes com. mander. This is repeated until every man has had his fling at being in command and wedding out process reduces the arnks f.om time to time until only the best fitted remain to be awarded commissions whenever the government has need Of their services in the capacity of second lieutenant
 Beyond this there is little that can be said. The officers work hard they study hard and they play ball hard. They live very much as do the men of the ranks and they may be officers-and they may not

SOLDIERS GET
 GOOD READING

FORT HANCOCK, Tex, May 15.--- Cavalry troops on outpOsts along the border ill this sector are reading new magazines and newspapers, thanks to Mrs. J. L. Browne, of Aber- deen, s. D. Sitting on the back platform of a Southern Pacific train passing through here recently Mrs. Browne noticed how eagerly the sol diers sought daily papers from the passengers on trains passing through. She made note of the name of the station and wrote to Private Paul Heaberlin, troop clerk, asking him if magazines and newspapers would be acceptable. He answered in the af- firmative and regular supply of reading matter for the orderly room now is being sent to this and out posts on the Mexican border.

DRIVE
 IS OVER TOP

With all means of deriving reve. nue for the Red Cross war fund at an end the figures roughly esti- mated give the amount of the quota as oversubscribed. At this time it is not possible to learn the full amount, owing to many of the outlying sec tions not yet making report.
 It will be many days before the full amount subscribed can he learned automatically, but that the amount required has been raised and ex- ceeded is an assured fact. The amount in Fairbanks alone comes close to the sum required. When the returns are all in the full state ment vii be made public.

AMERICANS ARE
 WE'LL RECEIVED

PARIS, May 15.-'In the trenches these young Americans get acclim- ated in a few hours. so our non- commissioned officers assured me-" writes war correspondent of Le 'remps. Good shots, keen. pune tual and cool under shellfire, tn y soon learn the tricks of the trade.
 When 1 asked one of our own great chiefs who has had several hundreds of them under his con- mand. what had dictated the pro- visional form of mixing, Americans with our poilus. he replied:
 For four years we have been hunting a wild beast. The Americans are guests who are going to hunt some time with us to learn the lay Of the land where the wild beast operates and his habits and ours. Soon they will hunt all alone and very we'll
 "Then he added: Tell the public that the American troops have come to France with the intention of really fighting and not merely to serve as tools for an anticipated ar bitration of peace. Each day their soldiers give thousand proofs of their keen desire to leap at the enemy's throat. Wait little and you will see these soldiers astonish the wOrld.'"

NENANA GOING
 HIGH FOR WOOL

At the office of John A. Clark yes. terday was received the bid of Ne mana for the half pound of White House wool that is being offered by the President. The amount tele- graphed in was $210, the bidder be- ing W. L. Packer, superintendent of construction there.
 This bid is higher than the one turned in by the federal employees, and the wool may be awarded to the railroad man. The only thing tbat will prevent the award will be the returns from Ruby, which have not been heard from yet. It may be possible that a big bid will come from there, but owing to the wires being down it is impossible to state what the highest bid has been there.

THE CONCRETE
 SHIP IS THE
 FUTURE BOAT

SAN FRANCISCO, May 15.-The Pacific coast stands ready literally to pour out concrete ships as fast as they are needed, according to the engineers who constructed the big concrete steamer Faith" here re- gently.
 The design for the next boat, big ger than the Faith by 2,5OO tons. dead weight, is completed. It will be followed by three more of the same design, according to the engin- eers.
 All of the boats will be built on | the big flat in Redwood City, near here, where the Faith was given to the waves. but other plants are like ly to spring up anywhere, 1t is agreed, since no elaborate shipyard is needed
 | As soon as the Faith has been given her trial spin on San Francisco bay. moulds will be set for the next boat, and if the steel is rushed and other materials are available, she will be turned out In less than three months. fully equipped and ready for sea. The Faiths builders said.
 The Faith has carrying capacity of 5000 tons, is expected to make ten knots. and will be used in the | coast wise and trans-P Pacific trade, according to present plans. The new vessels will have 1900 tons cargo capacity, will each be 100 feet long. CT than the Faith. and 13 feet wider, and should make. ten knots or bet ter
 There will be other departures in the new vessels. They will not have the flat bottom of the Faith or the same squat lines. They will | carry a gun fore and aft for use against the submarines if used in the Atlantic war zone. Their en- zines will be set amidships. instead of in the stern, as is the case with the Faith.
 The ways down which the Faith slid will be abandoned, according 10 the engineers, and new set of ways will be constructed for the new yes sels.
 All designs for the new vessels are being submitted to the United States shipping board. according to the engineers. The board will have experts "on the job" and naval construction expert is on hand al- ready to advise with and receive ad- vice from the builders.
 ''To show how fast We can build," one of the Faiths engineers said. the workers who were building the Faith consistently ran ahead Of the plans we were making for that yes sel. Instead of having the vessel follow the plans, We were forced to some extent to have the plans fol low the vessel. The plan for the new vessel is all ready, however, and we are ready to go ahead and build her as soon as the Faith mas tested herself on a trial trip"

CHATANIKA HAS
 LARGE SUM FOR THE RED CROSS

The residents of Chatanika have come to the front in their efforts to help swell the quota of this dis trict for the Red Cross war fund During the drive much work was done for the raising of the money turned in.
 Through the efforts of Mrs Anton Troseth the sum of $25 was turned in to the fund. This amount was raised on upper Cleary. the people giving liberally and willingly. Miss A. Raymond and Miss Lindgren can vassed lower Cleary and raised a like amount, meeting with ready re- sponses to their efforts.
 At Chatanika a raffle of doilie donated by Mrs. Jack Edwards brought in $50, the winner being Mrs. Sam Weiss. Mrs. s. E. Ivey donated a crOcheted yoke, which was likewise rallied. the winner being Herman Bloom. The amount real ized from the yoke was BIO.
 Sunday the ladies of Chatanika held an ice cream sale from which $53 was raised. The residents pat. tronized the party to the extent of their capacity.
 With the close of the ice cream party the drive also closed, and there was found to have been raised the sum of $500. Of this amount, $l63 was raised by the above sales and rallies, and the balance was donated by people from various plac' es with public subscriptions.
 Taking it all together, the showing of Chatanika is one any community iuay well be proud of.
