ALASKA PRIEST IS
 INFLUENZA VICTIM

The Rev Philip Howard Williams, priest in charge of the mission at Panama under Bishop Rowe, who re- gently went out to engage in army work, was stricken with Spanish in fiuenza and died in Baltimore.
 To go to Alaska. the Rev. MT Williams left parish in Baltimore. where every one from the rector whose assistant he was. down to the young est child loved him. In two years. after leaving the theological seminary, "evorything was done to spoil him. kindness was layished upon him. and his life was made easy and delightful at every turn. From all this he delib- rrately turn away and set his face to- ward Alaska He positively rejoiced in selfdcnial. He felt it an honor to be accounted worthy to suffer. And so it was with great happiness that having overcome all obstacles, he was able at last in July. 1915, to carry out his long cherished wish to come to Alaska. His letters made much of the great interest of the country and the work.

MAIL SERVICE CAUSING
 ALASKANS MUCH WORRY

At recent meeting of the Cordoya chamber of commerce 1t was again proposed to take up the matter of the mail service to Alaska and try, if possible. to affect some arrangement whereby the people of the North could be given service adequate to the importance of Alaska.
 All Alaskans are complaining bit terly over the governments inactivity in forcing the steamships to carry the mail expeditiously and properly. As an indication Of the manner in which the steamships handle the mail mat ter, the Victoria arrived in Valdez at o'clock Thursday evening with nearly a months mail on board. The postoffiCe was thronged by anxious people, but the mail never came up until midnight. Fifteen minutes be fore the cast-off whistle was blown the obliging officials bethought themselves of the mail, and it was hoisted out of the hold, the citizens and the post. master in the meantime standing about waiting.
 If the people of Alaska had the backbone of worm they could bring these companies down on their knees in d hurry. One way to do it is to get territorial government and appoint a mi fn lut rtrf fl steamships and other public carriers.
 There is no excuse for the rotten and reprehensible handling of the mail by the steamship companies and q howl should go up that would con vince the government that Alaska is entitled to more than buying Liberty bonds and helping in war work.-Val- deZ Miner.

PORTO RICO SUPPLIES
 JELLY TO THE SOLDIERS

SAN JUAN. Porto Rico, Dec. 8 Porto Rico has completed the ship ment of l2O 900 glasses about @l tons of guava jelly to the Red Cross in France to be distributed among the hospitals. The jelly was made by the Porto Rico chapter of the American Red Cross and sent to France as contribution from Porto Rico.
 Last year the island Red Cross made and sent to France about twelve tons of guava jelly and it was so greatly appreciated that Charles Hartzell, the chairman Of the Porto Rico chapter, recently received cable from the National Red Cross headquarters at Washington saying the supply in France was all gone and asking if any more was available.
 Ten thousand cases of jelly which the Red Cross had ready for shipment to France recently were sunk at the pier at New York.

FACE the FACTS

EFT face the facts. The situation is critical.
II Unless the Allies fight as they never yet have
fought, defeat threatens Hungry men cannot fight
at their best; nor hungry nations France England,
and Italy are going hungry unless we feed them.
Wheat Savings-They must have wheat. It is the
best food to fight on 1t is the easiest to ship. We
alone can spare it to them By saving just little
less than quarter of what we ate last year-we can
support those who are fighting our battles. And we
can do it without stnting ourselves. We have only
to substitute another food just as good.
The Corn of PIenty-Corn is that food. There's a
surplus of it. Providence has been generous in the
hour of our need It has given in such bounty
as was never known before Tons OF corn Train,
loads of corn. Five hundred million bushels and
above our regular needs. All we have to do is to
learn to appreciate it. Was patriotic duty made
so easy? And so clear?
Americas Own Food-Corn! It is the true American
food. The Indians, hardest of races lived on it.
Our forefathers adopted the diet and conquered a
continent. For great section of our country it
has blong the staff of life. How well the South
fought on it. history tells. Now it can help America
win world war.
Learn Something-Corn! 1t isn't one food. It's
dozen. It's cereal. It's vegetable. It's a bread.
It's dessert. It's nutritious; food value in it,
dollar for dollar than meat or eggs or most other
vegetables; It's good to eat; how good you don't
know until you've had corn-bread properly cooked.
Best of all, it's plentiful and it's patriotic.
Corn's Infinite Variety-How much do you know about
corn? About how good it is? About the many
delicious ways of cooking it? And what you miss
by not knowing more about it? Here are few
of its

Q a 8 TO RIA

What would be the result if ev-
cry person in Ohio should save a
nickle a day during 1918?
The Ohio War Savings COM
mlttee has answered this ques-
ton satisfactorily. This states
$1O6, 900. ono quota of United
States War Savings Stamps and
Thrift Stamps would practically
be absorbed without the least
difficulty.
"A nicMe a day." from every
one of the 100000 people of the
state would produce a daily saw
ing of $3.50, 900; in a year this
would produce the enormous to-
tai of $91, ,25O.OOO. This amount,
With equal savings from every
state in the union, would come
close to furnishing the $4,000,
600, 600 needed by the govern.
ment from this source; it might
be the two billions the govern
ment needs to carry the stars anC
stripes over the Rhine into thu

In addition, this saving invest

In a recent communication to

"There has never been a SINH

France. They have entered this
war with the highest devotion to
duty and with no other idea than
to perform these duties in most
efficient manner possible. They
fullv realize their obligation to
their own people, their friends
and the country. A rlgld pro-
gram of instruction is carried

healthy, interesting exercises IN
the open air. with simple diets
officers and men, like trained
athletes, are ready for their
tasks. Forbidden the use OF
strong drink and protected Oy
stringent regulations against sex
ual evils, and supported by thelr
own moral courage, their gooo
behavior is the subject OF most
favorable comments, especially
by our allies. American mothers
may rest assured that their sons
are a credit to them and to the

forward to the proud day when

men will shed a new luster OF

US for the next six weeks, He
saw his ''shadder," and that
means that we are to have a con.
tinuance of cold weather for that
period. 1t began to get cold al
once and has so continued ever
since, growing in severity, which
isan assurance that there is re
trif1iEg about this matter and we
must take our medicine whether
we will or not, and whether it is
pleasing or not. What Can we
do? The only thirg ] see to do is
possess ourselves in patience un-
til the cold weather passes and a
more congenial temperature pre-
walls. This cold weather spell
would not seem so cruel if this
grorrd hog or some other hog
had not shortened our fuel sup
ply. But whether we are able to
fathcm the cause or not, We only
know we must endure what we
cannot cure.
Our supply of coal is woefully
short of our needs and it seems
that neither our coal dealers nor
our mayor or other important
functionaries are able to get it in
our bins. We will have to either
reduce the number of places of
consumption and. double up more
and more in our households or 90
to bed to keep warm. Which
horn of the dilemma will we take:
We had our Sunday school and
preaching service in the M. E.
church of our village yesterday.
We are sort of getting used to
deniaIs of usual things and scarce
think it worth while to complain,
and if we did it would not help
the situation a bit. So let us be
cheerful and quiet our rebellious
natures if we would be happy.
