 Many of them devoted parts of their usual adVer- Using space to stirring appeals to their patrons and friends rally to the call of the country for money with which to conduct the great for Amer1cas freedom and the of worldwide democracy.
 It is unprecedented thing which our business men have been doing-a ne splendid thing, and it's mean ing should not be lost people It means that with these business men, personal and private interests have been subordnated to the greater call and the greater need.
 Many there who believe that the Government should have bought and paid for all of the advertising the officials of the Government have not yet provided the patriotic donations of our business AND THIS NIFICENT RESPONSE ACCORDED TO THE CALL
 The business men, knowing the absolute necessity for advertising the bonds-knowng this better than statesmen and leaders at Washngton-have answered to the emergency and have shoudered the burden will lingly, cheerfully, eagerly!
 All honor B due them. All patriotic people will cord it to them without stint.
 And this newspaper would impress upon it's readers the proprety and duty of letting these loyal merchants and business know how highly their practical SUD- port of the nations is valued.

FALCON J0SLIN
 WELL PLEASED
 WITH HIS WORK
KataHa Oil and Bering Coal Development Is Proceed ling to His Sat
 isfaction.

Well, pleased with his coal devel- opments in the Boring River coal fields and with his oil outlook in the Katalla region, Falcon Joslin, head of two promising developing compan ies, passed through Juneau on the Northwestern for the South.
 "The coal proposition in the Der ing river coal fields which we are developing is one of the best look ing that l have ever seen," said MT. Joslin. "The deposit bears every evi- dence of being large and well situat- ed and the quality of the coal ex- cellent," he continued. Our great est problem seems to be to solve the transportation end of the propo- sition under the present high cost of construction conditions.
 We have put down one well. and struck oil, though not in great quan' titles. I think the showing is satis- factory, however. considering the linn ited amount of work that we have performed. We expect to be able to make a better showing before the end of the season.
 Mir. Joslin is convinced that the Katalla oil fields will prove among the valuable ones of the Pacific coast.
 From here Mir. Joslin will go to Seattle, and later in the season he will probably proceed to New York.
