Under the Caption; Nome Robin will be on the Job Next Year, the Seat tle Times of December 18th, has the following to say concerning well known former Nomelte.
 When the first ships from Seattle swing into the roadstcad off Nome next spring laden with freight and passengers for the Seward Peninsula district. there will be a keen disap- pointment for hundreds of old timers who in the past years have become &C., customed to see the rotund form of Frank J, O'Connor loom out of the off ing.
 .O'ConnOr has been agent in Nome for the Pacific Coast Steamship Company and it's successor, the Pacific Steam ship Company, for nearly a dozen years and always went North from Seattle in the spring on the first liner. As his arrival is coincident with the open ing of navigation and the resumption of mining operations far into the in- terior, O'Connor has been heralded as the Nome robin," despite the fact that he weighs more than 300 pounds
 Because the Pacific Steamship Com pany needs a good man in Vancouver B. C., to act as agent, Nome will have to get along as best 1t can without O'Connor and some other employc of the Pacific Steamship Company will have to assume tho role of robin for the company. Some of his Nome friends are consoling themselves with the hope that by spring another agent of the hne may be placed in Vancouver and O'Connor given his old post in tho Seward Peninsula district.

BIG DINNER WAS EVENT
There Was Turkey in Plenty and
Candy, Cigarettes and Cigars
From the Officers for
the Men.

Clifford T. Floyd who is with the
149th field artillery, somewhere in
France, has written an interesting
letter to his mother, some parts OF
which are reprinted here from the
letter which was forwarded to his
grandfather Joe c. Thompson of, this
city. Mr.. Floyd enlisted from Chi
cago. In his letter, which was dated
December &c, 1917, he writes:
Dear Mother: l have received
about twelve or thirteen letters from
you since l have written you last. l
just got yours of the twentieth,
twenty-first and twenty-second Of No
yember, today. That is the way they
usually come, three or four at a time.
am ashamed of myself for not
writing sooner, but l just couldn't
sit still long enough to write a decent
letter. Lord knows l started enough
times. l have three letters here now
that are not finished. l will just
copy them down in this letter.
How did you enjoy your Christ
mas? / surely enjoyed mine, the
dinner and the day we had. Here is
the whole day: Reveille, 1880; mess,
$3.50; lay around until about ia
when we, had mess, coffee and dough-
nuts, so we would not waste the real
dinner; went back to rest until about
two, when Mrs. Judah's (mayor's
wife) boxes of candy came in along
with two packs of Fatimas, and a
cigar for each man from Lieutenants
Bokum and Shelldrake. And then
about 3:15 o'clock came the big event
of the day, namely dinner.
I'VE had about two pounds of tur-
key apiece with mashed potatoes,
gravy, dressing, some kind Of carrot
gravy, biscuits, pie, chocolate, nuts.
apples and pears. Some mess!
cit couldn't have tasted better any
place except home, and then ] doubt
it, for at home it would have been
taken for granted to have a good
meal for Christmas, and then, too,
one would have turkey oftener than
on Christmas or Thanksgiving, while
here we don't have turkey every day.
That meal tasted like million dol
lars!
II am sending you the card that
was in Mrs. Judah's box. Oh, by the
way, ! got box from Mayme the
other day, and about two or three
weeks ago, l got a box of candy from
you and soon after we got here,
got a carton of cigarettes. l haven't
gotten a Christmas box yet, although
expect 1t every minute, more mail
coming in tonight.
20, yes, you wanted to know what
to send me. Well, send candy, to-
bacco, cigarettes, socks, gloves,
sweaters, six foot scarf, helmet, good
thick skull cap, cookies, in fact any
thing to eat, but above all send candy
and cigarettes and heavy wooden
socks, also stationery and envelopes
and a box of pencils, and half
dozen rolls of films. Keep me well
supplied for I want lots of pictures
to remember this trip by.
I'VE sleep in barracks here, no
tents in this country. 1t is cold here
and is either going to rain or snow
tonight"

They Can Be Used Best,
Is New Plan of

The localization plan, adhered to
in the formation of the infantry and

eighth national army division at

In increasing the personnel of or

new recruits will be assigned to the
regiments needing more men regard
less of the district from which they

result of the selectives in their

ELK PREACHER
MAKES ADDRESS
Rev. Jones Of Oswego, N. Y, Pays
Visit to Local Lodge and Tells
Spanish-American War
Naval Story.

At the regular meeting last even
ing Of the local Elks lodge, a most
interesting address was given by a
visiting member of the order, Rev.
H. w. Jones of Oswego, N. Y. state
chaplain of the Elks of New York
and who served on the battleship
Texas during the Spanish-American
war as chaplain in the navy. 1t was
also past exalted rulers night at the
lodge and nine of these were present
and conducted the meeting, occupy
ing the various chairs. Following
the session a lunch was served and
about 100 members Of the lodge
greatly enjoyed the evening
The daring feat of Hobson and his
little crew in sinking the Merrimac
in Santiago harbor~ was told by Chap
lain Jones in most entertaining and
thrilling manner. He was a specta-
tor Of this incident which is now
part Of American naval history,
watching the ship with it's nine
volunteers slipping into what was
expected to be certain death He
also told Of the destruction of the
Spanish fleet and the ire Of the Ger
man admiral there who interfered
and afterwards said that in a few
years America would be attacked by
Germany. 1t was by but hairs breadth
that the worlds war did not start at
that time, according to Chaplain
Jones who said such was Germany's
intention, but the presence of Brit
ish squadron thwarted the plans of
the Teuton.
An eloquent appeal to patriotism
was made by the speaker who told
of Americas entrance into the pres
ent great war and of his seeing his
only son leave for somewhere in
France with the New York troops
last fall.
Rev. Jones is a member Of the
lodge of Elks at Freeport, NJ Y.
which numbers nine ministers in it's
membership.

Captain Has Been Saved.

United Press Leased Wire Service
NEW YORK. Feb. S.-A cable
message received at the Anchor line
Offices from Glasgow gave first news
that Captain Peter Mclean. COM
mander of the Tuscania, had been
saved The message also said that
Purser Young and William Wheate,
the chief steward, were safe.
Shortly before leaving this side on
the last voyage, Captain Mclean
modestly whispered to some friends
that some kind of a decoration was
to be given him for his war work.
Captain Mclean is humorous
Scotchman, as well as a modest one,
and he remarked:
We'll, it's funny thing, but the
men they decorate always seem to
be torpedoed shortly afterwards"
