enrolled In the Modern Health CRU
sade, which Is finely organized plan
for inculcating health habits among
the young. The educational world

tlon.

THE POOR MANS CHANCE 10
WIN A HOME.

J. w. McCulloch of Ontario, who
has 800 acres of good farm land
under the Warm Springs Project has
decided to give four men of moder-
ate means an opportunity to acquire
a good productive farm home. The
plan IS to divide this half section I'm
to four eighty acre tracts, and to sell
to the right parties on such terms
that the entire purchase price will be
paid out of the earnings of the land,
after the purchaser and his family
have had their living from the ranch.
This Is rare opportunity, and
will bring to any industrious person
q well improved farm home fully
paid for in ten years time. Practi-
cally all of this tract Is improved
and ready for crops in 1920. An
abundance of water and good pro-
ductive soil is assured. The only
thing needed is the farmer who is
willing and anxious to work.
See McCulloch and secure a home
that will pay for itself while sup
porting your family.-Ad.

Who Won the War?

(Stars and Stripes) "
 If all goes well the peace treaty will soon be ready for signature. It is quite be expected and altogether to be desired that country will find that treaty exactly to his liking. Should any ons country emerge completely satisfied it would mean that there had been at the conference the full degree of mutual concession which marks the conn munity spirit when tunctioning whoesomely.
 The more acute dissatisfied elements will be very, very audible They will give utterance at the top of their luRGs follows:
 "'rhc war has been fought in vain"
 You will hear that said earneetly and so any sides, that t will be worth while keeping in mind what arrant nonsense it is Americas chief reason for going to war-also Frances chief reason and England's sell tdefense. It to avoid cap ture and enslavenent by Germania tout It was the sane purpose which animates every posse of citizens who are out to catch maniaca burglar.
 That purpose has been achieved The burglar nation is in the lookup. Our chief for going to war then has already been rewarded.
 If the posse before it breaks up, readjust the affairs of the neighborhood to discourage future burgarous enterprises the part of any nation, much the better. But don't let any one kid you into thinking for moment that fought the war in vain.

CELEBRATE THE FOURTH OF JULY

The Fourth of July will be celebrated next week Juneau has made arrangements for fitting ob servance of day insofar sports entertainments etc, are concerned However, the celebration of Independence Day depends almost wholly upon the celebrants-the spirit of the occasion. The Empire suggests that all the people of the City make it a point to join in the festivities of the day. Let everyone get into the game. Give vent to your spirit the patriotism that carried the country through the Great War to a glorious victory.
 The peace treaty has now been signed and the President of the United States whose standh for dem ocracy in the day of humanitys stress carried Amer ica to arms and the field of battle and whose continued stand for democracy has given us treaty which it is hoped will make it possible avoid another world war, will be the high for home. There have been few occasions when Americans had much to make merry they will have when celebrating the 143d birthday ann- versary of their country. Never was there more reason to be proud of the country to rejoice that we are Americans Let show that appreciate blessings.
 Let Juneau, also, make it a point to welcome the visitors in the city, and make them glad they are in Alaskas first city. We make them feel glad they are here only if show that we are glad.
 Let us remember that the spirit of the ceebra- ton IS we'll nigh the whole thing-and let us de- velop the spirit.

AFTER THE SHOUTING AND TuMULT

The shouting and the tumult having died fin the Chamber of the United States Senate stock now can De taken Of the results of the mbroglio created by the announcement that copies of the world peace treaty were in unauthorized hands in New York One Of the effects is the printing in the Congresson al necord or the copy of what purports to be a du. phcats of the treaty which brought to this cohhuy Dy journalist. Upon reflection this may ce sald to bn the only tangible product of the noisy and disasreeable palavering at Washington As pointed cut by Senator Atlee Pomerene of Ohio the possession of this doubtful paper will not for ward acton upon the treaty itself the Sen ate cannot either raty or reject the Presidents ac- compshments until they officially delivered hv that official through proper channels

Democrats Have Edge

(Henry-Ford's International Weekly.)
 The Democrats have the edge in the 1920 cam paign because they not only have fought a great war to remarkably successful conclusion but they have or at least their leader has, taken the initiative in attempting to end war for all time. And that ast if sentiment ascertained be acceted in dicatve of what the majority feels, not only is a powerful argument with the great bulk of voters who did not war, and to the hundreds of thou sands of women who have been newly enfranchised but 1t is even more potent with those who have fought their way the Ourcq and the Vesle anc gone through machine-gun nests of the Ar
 
 Also the Democrats have the advantage of their being able to point to results accomplished in spite opposition; necessarily the Republican contentious must be somewhat of a negative nature.

the name of the friend in whose custody he asserts he saw a copy of the treaty, and he should not be vexed or rritated if other witnesses show the same disregard for proprieties.
 Finally it may be said that if 1t was compara lively an easy matter for a journalist travelling through Paris to pick up what purports to be a of this important document it must follow that other influential interests could duplicate his action.
 In any event as noted nothing is gained or lost, as the Senate cannot take action until President Wilson transmits to it the official treaty with his own hands. s4
