THE EIGHT HOUR LAW FOR
 ALASKA D|ES NATURAL DEATH

convinced they could not get a con viction department of interior deems no action necessary on our applica- tion to have law suspended. Practi- cal effect this decision is that Bun nells decision holds and law IS dead letter"
 The action of Attorney General Gregory in deciding not to appeal Judge Bunnel's decision whereby the Eight Hour law was declared un- constitutional, means that the All aska judges decision holds and that the law is dead letter.
 There were two courses open to the Attorney General in the matter, one was to pursue the indictments against the Northern Commercial company by appealing the case to higher court, and the other was to take no action in the matter and in that case the decision of Judge BunneIl holds good.

banking, of the sanitation of the home the
care of children, and many other things on
which their success and their health and happi-
ness depend; full round of knowledge, such as
is needed for success in no other occupation.
Also the farmer and the farmers wife must
know not only the separate facts of these but
the underlying principles as well, to enable
them to direct their work intelgently and to
adjust themselves to constantly changing con-
ditions.
Such knowledge and training cannot be given
effectively in the elementary schools alone.
Much of it can be given only in high schools
and colleges and to boys and girls of high
school and college age.
The place which farmers hold in the affairs
of the nation and the world and the value of
their work have been revealed by the war The
Importance of these will not be less when the
war is over. 1t is of the utmost Importance
that they be able to fill their places and do
their work inteIigently and well.
That they may be prepared for this, the
schools for the farmers children in small towns
and villages and in the open country should be
better supported and constantly improved and
no boy or girl should be kept out of the elemen-
tary school or high school when attendance is
possible. In so far as the draft laws and the
absolute necessities Of the home will permit
every country boy and every country girl, who
IL prepared for it, should go to college, univer-
sity, or normal school,
There are before us as people now just two
tasks OF supreme Importance: To win the war
for freedom and democracy, and, let us hope
Tor permanent peace, and to fit ourselves and
our children for life and citizenship in the new
world which the war is bringing in Both of
these tasks must be performed with singleness
OF purpose and WholeIhearted devotion to the
public welfare; and no sacrifice, however great
must be allowed to stand in the way of either
Every word of the article can be taken to
heart very profitably by the farmers of Ber-
kelley County and we trust that they may do
their part in this great task

THERE is ONE PLACE WHERE
THE REAL ARTICLE is SERy-
ED COVER THERE"
GBy e. "a. Batchelor)

PARIS, Sept. 17.-(By Mail) Like
$50 many other buildings in Paris, the
~. NJ. c. A. clubhouse at 81 Avenue
Montague holds much of historic IL
terest. Built by Napoleon III to
house his Ministry of Agriculture and
Finance, 1it latter became the resi-
Idence of Mrs. Ogden Mills.
Then it was taken over by the Y.
NJ. G. A. as its Paris Headquarters
The main Offices Of the Red Triangle
soon outgrew even this large struc-
ture, however, and the place was con-
verted into a clubhouse" for officers
and enlisted men.
There is no sept in Paris where the
men in olive drab find more real en-
joyment than in this clubhouse. To
begin with, it is one of the few pla-
ces where it is possible to get a
piece of genuine American pie, the
real New England national dish.
France has many culinary attain
ments to her credit, but UP to date,
she has not succeeded in achieving
an American pie. The soldiers al
most weep for joy when they first en-
counter this homely article of food
| Madame VERIFY, an American wo-
man, who has lived for considera-
bile time in Paris, presides over the
culinary department at 81 Avenue
iMontaigne. In spite OF the difficult
ties attendant upon housekeeping in
Paris in war times, she succeeds in
giving the soldiers just the kind of
meals that they want. Even ice
cream, which next to pie is craved
lby an American palate in strange
land can be had here.
The American meals are made all
the more delightful because they are
served by attractive American and
English girls, who, in addition to act
ing as mattresses, are there to make
the fighting men happy by talking
with them, dancing with them, and
even, it is SO rumored, doubtless false
lyl occasionally flirting with them,
Among these volunteer mattresses are
several girls whose names often fig
ured in the society columns at home.
The facilities of the club house are
for the exclusive benefit of members
OF the A. E. F. No matter how hard
civilians plead to be admitted to the
inner circle, they have to take back
seat while the men in uniform occu-
Ply the center of the stage.

IMPORTANCE OF EDUCATION TO
FARMERS.

We would call the attention of cur readers to
this editorial because we think it sounds note
which should be needed especially by the men
and women on our farms. And we feel that W.T.
and women on our farms. And we feel that we
d very good one since we have taken it almost
verbatim from letter sent out by Mr.. P. P.
Claxton, Commissioner of Education for the
United States
In his letter to the Secretary of the Interior
approving the campaign of the Bureau of Edu-
cation for the support of the schools and the
maintenance of attendance upon them during
the war, President Wilson says: THAT, in so
far as the draft law will permit, there should
be no falling off in attendance in the elementary
schools, high schools or colleges is matter of
the very greatest Importance, affecting both our
strength in war and our national welfare and
efficiency when the war is over" He then urges,
that the people support generously their schools
OF all grades and adapt them as wisely as pos
slble to the new conditions, ito the end that no
boy or girl shall have less opportunity for edu-
cation because of the war and that the nation
may be strengthened as it can only be through
the right. education Of all its people,
For no part of our people is this more i1npor-
tant than for those who live in villages, small
towns and in the open country, mostly farmers
Whatever may have been true in former DAYS,
1t has now come about that for success in their
work and for good living on the farm and in the
farm home, farmers and their wives need a
broader, more comprehensive, and more thor
ough education than do men and women engag-
: ed IN any other occupation and living under any
other conditions. They need not only the gen.
eral information and training for life and citi-
zenship which they should have in common
with all men and women, but they need also
training IN science and knowledge of physics
and chemistry, of soils and fertilizers, of plants
and animals and their diseases and how to pro
tect against them, of the cultivation and har-
vesting of crops, of marketing, of balanced ra-
tons for domestic animals, of machinery and
