to her and not her to it, and the tangent
being offered to her and not her to it.
Why should he not say so?

well what Mr. Chesterton meant. To

CTORY telling, along with everything
~ else, has been reduced to a science
In the good old days, which weren't as
good as they might have been in some
respects, the only way of responding to
a child's demands for stories was to seize
the nearest book and read until you or the
child or the book became exhausted. There
are born story tellers, of course, though
pitifully few and far between, and for
them one feels an admiration almost too
deep for expression. But out of consider
alton for the rest OF us and the children
two books have been compiled 10 relieve
the situation.
Wilhelmina Harper is responsible for
Story-Hour Fdr0ritcS and +. L. and A. VI.
Skinner for Happy Tales for Story Time.
The Skinner sisters and Miss Harper are
experts in their line which is amusing
children and 50 we are safe in relying
upon their judgment as to the modern and
scientific selection of stories.
Miss Harper is children's librarian in
one Of the New York Libraries where her
story hours are a great success. Her
selections include myths, fairy stories and
legends from all lands and for children
of varying ages. Oscar Wilde, joel
Chandler Hurts, Carolyn Bailey, Eugene
Field and others as well known are rep

value. Her book has the distinction.
whether for good or bad, of being the
only collection of stories for children
within the memory of man without one
from Hans Christian Andersen.
One of the most happy of her selections
is The Kingdom Of the Greedy "a story
for Thanksgiving from the French of
=. j. Stahl. This is the story of how the
King Of the Greedy cured the Unsuitable
lust for tarts which was undermining his
country by having a tart as big as the
capitol baked and forcing his people to
eat it all up. The eggs alone that went
into that tart would have filed saucepan
as large as a skating pond and the latest
cook that ever lived could never have held
the handle. The pastry cooks rolled up
their sleeves and began to knead the dough
with cries of iii. Hi" that could be
heard for miles when they saw what was
before them, which was only another way
of showing the same spirit that our boys
in camp do when they sing, "Where Do
We Go From Here, Boys" as they tackle
u particularly hard job. When the tart
was finally eaten there was no more COM
planning of the good wholesome soup that
the King fed TO his subjects.

kLUKWAN NOTES
Especial Correspondence)

Klukwan, April 21.-sam VII Hams, a rative of the Chilkat peo- pie died at his home in thls village on April IS. He leaves a wife and three children to mourn his loss. He was buried Sunday, in the Klukwan cemetery.
 Mir. Williams was members or the Klukwan band, and was one or the strong supporters of the or ganization. He was liked by all his friends and neighbors, and he will be greatly missed.
 The Klukwan Native band has dis banded for the summer, after meet , ing twice each week all winter Their practice has been very faith ful, and by it marked improvement has been shown. If the members are too far separated during the summer, when they go to their respective fishing grounds, an ef- for will be made to take them to Skagway on the annual ndepend- ence day celebration.
 Sholtie Gin-da-gan, one of the old residents of this village passed away after an illness extending through the greater portion of the winter. The deceased was a very old man, and died at his home here. The Chilkat people are sad at heart for those who are in trouble.
 Owing to the two deaths which have occurred in the Klukwani viii Iago, during the past week, the basket social which was planned by the members of the Presbyterian mission has been postponed out of respect for the departed relatives of those who have gone beyond the Great River. The social was to have been held in the new house which has just been completed near the residence of the late MT. Gin-da-gaN' and it is out of respect for the dcparted that the Red Cross bas- ket social benefit was postponed.
 The Native Branch of the Haines Red Cross society are very much in terasted in the work of the organ ization, and great many of the women are industriously engaged in knitting sox and other articles for the soldiers in France.
 The slogan of the Native Red Cl5ss branch in Klukwan is "Our Government is Educating our Chil- drrr Free" and this has been a great incentive for the people to show their appreciation and do their bit. Their work with the yarn aud needles is excellent, end some of tbe workers have become very proficient. n,

The Stacker Dollar

Frank A. Vdnderlip hit the nail on
the head in speech at Cincinnati,
when he said that "a boarded dollar
is Stacker" Work for the war is
necessary, and of primary Importance,
but industry and business cannot be
overlooked without fatal results.
The campaign against the enemy
must be backed by industry and
business going on to a great degree as
usual, else the wherewithal to finance
the war will be cut off. To stop
manufacturing, trade and transporta.
ton. to hoard is killing the goose.
Money must be kept in circulation.
and let 1t be kept at home so that it
will come back in the natural cycle
of business dealings. Trade with
intelligent discrimination, that's
always wise, but do not hoard. =
Denver Telegraph.

above will obviously conflict
with the federal licensing
schemes which Mr.. Hoover IS
developing. The national
food administration would
probably welcome co-oPera-
ton from the state council,
but it will surely brook no
interference with schemes OF
national scope and state
control of food supplies
would be just that. So far as
speculation in Liberty Bonds
is concerned there is probably
not an exchange in the state,
and in any event the price OF
Liberty Bonds in Idaho and
elsewhere will be regulated
by the price these securities
will fetch in New York or in
other recognized centers OF
trade. For Idaho to attempt
to keep Liberty Bonds at par
by legislation is as absurd as
was Governor Alexander S
guarantee of the first issue
put out last summer.
There is much work for the
State Council of Defense to
perform without having that
organization attempt to usurp
powers already conferred on
existing authorities.

County Agents Fix Wages.

10 a meeting of county agents from
over the state, held at Idaho Falls,
last Friday, the menu beers took up
measures defined to control the labor
situation in Idaho. A committee
was appointed to make a standard of
all prices to be used by farmers In
each county in the state. The wage
schedule will be on sliding scale,
ranging from Sc day for expert help
to $3.50 per day for common labor.
1t is also the plans of the conven.-
tion before adiourning to form a
statewide farm bureau, which will
consist of the president of each county
organization. 1t is planned by TIE
bureau TO ask cooperation from the
legislature when 1t convenes for
special session for law which will
give the bureau power to commando.

Evades Anti-N epotism.

Boise. Idaho DIR. Fl. G. Bodle,
state veterinarian, despite the anti
nepotism law, has found work Ia his
department. for sou. Cohen Bodle.
Young Bodle is employed for the
purpose of counting tails clipped from
gophers and ground squirrels on
which the state pays a small bounty.
The law placing bounty on the
rodents became effective January /.
Bodle put his son to work about that
time, but there is nothing to show
that he drew salary until after
January 10, when the state livestock
sanitary board convened and agree d
TO keep the young man at work. for a
time at least.
The state law prohibits a depart
ment head from employing a relative.
DIR. Bodle has not done that. He let
the state livestock sanitary board
retain the sons services.
The anti-nepotism law was enacted
in 1915 by Republican legislature,
at the request of Governor Alexander.
About the capitol DR.. B odle's action
permitting the son to draw a salary
Is spoken of as an evasion of the
spirit OF the law.
