ciares 1T is a duty to utilize this vast

"Your Bit"
My message is to womanhood,
Men turn the other way,
You haven't any interest
In the things l wish to say
To the mothers, wives and sweethearts,
And to women everywhere.

Just put on Underwear,
And lay aside your Georgette sleeves,
Your gowns of lace and tulle,
And write across them. Sacrificed,
To save our nations fuel!''

JUST WHAT BECAME OF POND
Foolish Questloner, lt Is to Be sup posed, Was Satisfied With EN-
 planation Offered Him.

Speaking at a dinner, Senator J. Hamilton Lewis of Illinois referred to the propensity of some people for ask- ing foolish questions, and told the fol- lowing story:
 One day a city man happened ID a country community, and while ram bling around he ran across a depres- sion in the earth covering several acres. Some perplexed, he questioned a native close by. and was told that 1t was the bed of lost lake.
 You don't really mean ItT returned the city man. Whatever became or all the water?"
 Tt was this way" readily explained the native. There was picnic out here last August, aud when night came on they had nearly a barrel of pretzels left, which they didn't want to cart back home, so they threw them in the lake"
 "Yes. I see" interjected the other as the native paused, but what had that to do with it?"
 Everything, answered the native. .-The fish ate them. and the salty diet made them so thirsty that they drank all tue wafer"

He Got q Seat.

 This was sprung on an unSuspecting world the other night-mOrning, rather about three o'clock.
 The springer told about 1t to his of fee mates the next morning as fol- lows:
 "Tm so used to standing up in the street car that don't know how to sit down any more, actually" he said. "I feel more rested standing up than sit ting down. We always like what we grow accustomed to, of cOurse-sOrt of force of habit; strong thing, you know. as all our well-known psychologists agree.
 "The other afternoon stood up for two miles, and finally lady got out, and motherly looking woman said to me, Here's a seat and l said, It's a pretty seat, all right
 But that night started to tell you about-belleve me, boys. if you want to get a seat on a Washington street car go home at three o'clock in the morning. It Is pretty late, I'll admit, but the lateness Of the hour has its compensation. =

Meat Is Scarce.

Patrick J. Kennedy, and Thomas Carr, farmers of TempletOn, Ind, came to Indianapolis with three carloads of hogs and cattle. and after waiting all duy at the stock yards were told that there was no demand for them, says the Indianapolis News. The price on hogs fell of from $l769 to Sl7.1O while they were at the yards and finally they had to sell F of the choicest hogs from one car at ST. They were told that these hogs were too fat. The razor- backs, comparatively speaking, brought Sl7.1O. The cattle could not be sold.
 After this experience the two went to q stock yards restaurant nearby and ordered steak. It was Tuesday and, therefore, q meatless day.
 I've can't buy beef or pork" said the waitress. All We have for you Is fish and oysters. Meat Is very scarce, you know"
 "Yes, we know" said Kennedy, as he gave in and bought a substitute.

GRIzZl.Y BROOKS No a1Va, Testimony of Hunters Proves That Eie Is Beyond Question Supreme in
 His Own World.

The grizzly was once the monarch Of the Western ranges, says Walter Prichard Eaton, In Harper's Magazine Nothing disputed his title till man came with the rifle. Of man the gri7. Ely now has q most intelligent fear, ex' cept in places where he is protected and fed. Fierce and formidable fighter that he Is, he doesn't fight man unless he is driven to it, but with the keen ness of hls tribe (the bear Is one of the most intelligent of beaSts) he avoids danger so far as possible, and has de- veloped much cleverness at 1t.
 The testimony of all Western hunt. CTS agrees on the great caution a griz' zly uses before crossing an open or ap- preaching a dead horse or COW put out for bait, frequently charging all the bushes around to drive out possible foes In ambush as a preliminary to feeding. That the mountain Hon Is real foe of the bears our hunter de- nied. The mountain cat is coward. Once, he said, he had put out 6 dead horse for their bait, and watched from a tree two lions feeding on the carcass,
 A grizzly (called a silvertlp by the hunterS) approached, shOuldered in be- tween the lions and began to feed also. As one fat grizzly can take up consid- erable room the lions resented thls third party at the feast and drew of Snarling. Then one of them came back and evidently clawed the intruder or hit 1t. The bear, which had one fore paw employed, swung with the other, caught the lion tremendous blow and knocked him 50 feet down the slope Then Mir. Silvertip resumed hlS repaSt as if nothing, had happened. He did not even look around to see how far the lion fell or what he was going to do when he got up. Evidently the bear felt quite sure of his position. He was justified in this confidence, for the lion rose and with his mate sulked, snarl- ing, off into the timber.
 The man who told this story had Deeu uouululH Huutek ALOu OOyhoOO' and he Is, furthermore, an uncommon ly sharp observer whose knowledge has been more than once employed by the federal government. There Is no req son to doubt the accuracy of his tale, which seems to bear out the statements of other hunters that the grizzly is su- preme in his own world, even con t@nptuouSly so.

RusinAssIlke and Efficient.

It is considered worthy of notice In the papers that q woman has "held down" job as agent at a railroad sta ton somewhere in the West and that woman was agent at a Maine station for a few weeks. People must have short memories not to recall that the agent of the important Grand Trunk station at Lewiston a dozen years ago was a woman, who held the job for some time. And the writer can testify that she was businesslike and efficient, for she once kept him waiting at the ticket window for ten minutes by the clock while she finished the job she was doing on the boOks.-Oxford (Me) Democrat.

HIGH HoNORS RAE ACHIEVED

Alaska has reason to feel proud over the fine record it has achieve iu the Third Liberty Loan campaign recently brought to an end. The territory enjoys the distinction of lsading all competitors in this big drive for funds to be employed by ree United States in war work, in the Twelfth Liberty loan district, which comprises most of the west era states. Alaska and the Hawaiian islands. Alaska exceeded its quota by 24O per cent, or 46 per cent more than the state of Arizona, wlr;ch gained the next highest hon ors.iu the drive.
 Furthermore. an Alaska town, Eetchikan gained the honor, in the Third Liberty loan campaign, Of having more individual subscribers, per population, than any other city, town or village in the whole Unit ed States. One in every three per sons residing in Ketchikan purchas- ed Liberty bonds. In passing, we trKc this occasion to most warmly congratulate the residents of Ketehi- kan for this marked display of loy- al-v and fidelity to their country.
 Or. a recent trip to the statse, the editor of The Times was of ten ,askd the question How does A,aska stand on the war question?' Without hesitation We declared that the Deople- of this territory were as loyal as residents of other parts or the country; that We could be relied upon to do our share, and more than our shue. The question CTS seemed, to think that We were so farr removed from war activities, that We would pay but little heed, Ind take but slight interest in our cauutry's cause. The record Alas ua has achieved speaks for itself. Anchorage Times.
