GEORGE BEBAN LAST TIME AT t COLISEUM TONIGHT.

George Beban's introduction in the Morosco-Paramount produc- tion "The Cook of Canyon Camp which will be seen at the Coliseum the last time tonight, shows him as the chef of the lumber company arising in the cold, gray dawn, to prepare breakfast for the men. He is seen shivering and rubbing his unwashed hands. These scenes were taken high in the mountains right after blizzard. During the showing of the picture in the stu dio projecting room someone in the audience remarked, That looks as if it was cold" "Cold is right, D replied MT. Beban. "It took us four minutes to take that scene and it took me four hours to get warm after we were through"

SHOULD MAKE ALASKA DAY '
 A BOND DAY
Charles w. HaWkesWorth ! Suggests That Our Hol-
 iday Be Made Bond
 Drive Day.

Charles w. Hawkesworth makes the suggestion that Alaska Day., which comes next Friday and is next to the last day for closing the Lib- erty Loan drive be made special Liberty Loan drive day for this part of Alaska Already he has commun. icated with the Natives with a view of getting them to make as much ofs a showing as possible on that day z
 He suggests that arrangements be made in Juneau for some sort of a program.
 "It would be most appropriate, said the Superintendent of Educa--,, tion," for the Natives of Alaska, that our Alaska holiday this year should be devoted to the cause of the war in giving our money for the Libertys Loan."

Many Liberty Bonds Sold and Several Speakers Dwell on the Import
 anCe of War.
LARGE CROWD PRESENT
Judge Jennings Reminds People That the War Is Still in Pro-
 greSS.

Without question, from the point of attendance, patriotism and a good time enjoyed, the farewell dance given the members of U. s. s. c. 3O9 was one of the brilliant social events this season. Juneau and Channel residents vied with each other in extending the hospitality of the com munity to the men in Uncle Sam's service, who have made so many friends while their boata was in port.
 The Governor Speaks
 Bidding farewell to them, Gov. Thomas Riggs, Jr., spoke to the of ficers and men of the U. s. s. C.. 309. He told them how much we appreciated them and the service they had rendered up during their season here. He said that knowing them had made us like them and invited them to come back to Alaska after the war, for, he said, they had proved themselves to be the sort of men we need in the North country-honest, loyal citizens-and Alaska is brimming with opportuni- ties for such as they. Thanking them again for what they had done while here, Governor Riggs bade them God-speed.
 Judge Jennings Warns People War
 Not Vet Over
 Judge Jennings spoke particularly of the Liberty Bonds and the Red Cross. Speaking of the Liberty Bonds, and the necessity to sub scribe he said that the rumors of approaching peace .accentuated the necessity for an over subscription. "The fighting is still in progress over there" he said, "and it will not

stop until the great Commander-in- Chief tells the men under arms to sheathe the sword, the war is over." He said likewise it is the duty of at home to support those who are risking their lives and giving them for their country and our coun- try with all the money that we can raise until the great CQmmander-in- Chief tells us that the war is over and the Government needs no more money. He said nothing would help to hasted a satisfactory peace as much as an over-subscribed Liberty Loan, and nothing would be sweeter music to the Kaisers ear than the news that we had fallen down. The speaker paid a glowing tribute to the Red Cross. He said the women of this organization have already built a monument for themselves that will live forever in every cline and every country for all time.
 Hospitality Appreciated
 Speaking for Capt. J. J. O'Donnell, who, he said, was prevented from speaking on account of official regu- lations, told of Capt O'Donnelrs ap- preciation of the hospitality and cour- tesy which had been shown him and the other men of this service while they were in town and saying goodbye for him said that Capt. O'Donnell said that he was leaving here with a heart full of love for Jul neau

GOVERNOR RIGGS AT THE PALACE THEATRE
 SAYS PEOPLE MUST GIVE

The speech of Gov. Thomas Riggs, Jr., at the Palace theatre Saturday evening in the interest of the sale of Liberty Bonds, made a hit with the large audience that remained after the first show to hear it. Gov. Riggs said it has only been since the people began receiving letters from those whom they know at the front that the personal realization
 that we are engaged in a great war had become keen. He referred to the circumstance that he had eight nephews in the war, and when he returned from his recent trip there were letter from them and their parents which brought the conflict very close to home. He referred to one nephew who had re- ceived permission to come in from the front to visit his father at the American headquarters. The father 'said the boy came dirty, tired and his uniform torn and soiled, but his face was radiant with eagerness, and his first words were, Father. we're giving 'em he'll" It was one of many such letters that Americans everywhere are receiv- ing, said Gov. Riggs, letters that make us clearly realize that the United States is at wa- and bring home to us the duty and the pleas ure to support the Government with our money. Gov. Riggs said every man and every woman ought to have one or more Liberty Bonds, no matter what the sacrifice might be.
 Gov. Riggs urged that people not permit rumors of peace to stop the Liberty Bond drive. He said that Germany has made many promises and has broken faith many times.
 No one knows yet whether she is i sngood faith in her efforts to se- cure such peace as will be accept ible to the United States and her Allies. He declared that it is the duty of the American. people to lend all that they can to their Gov ernment until the war is over, and until she ceases to ask for money. He said the war is still on, and the Liberty Drive is still on. and both must be continued successfully.
