Dear Mrs. Thompson: 1 am nine

my senior We have been engaged
quite a while and I thought l loved
him, but now I know do not, although
he is a good fellow in every way. He
says he loves me dearly, but he does
not show it in any way, although he
is good to me.
About two months ago met young
. man and have since learned to care
very much for him, and al though
am sure he cares nothing for me now,
should like to win his love. At times
he will act as though he cared for me,
and at other times he will act indiffer-
ent. It worries me, for I really care
very much for him, although l would
not want him to know it.
Should break my engagement with
the first man and go with the second
one in the hopes Of winning his love,
or should I give him up and continue
with the fellow am engaged to but do
not love?
Break your engagement since you no
longer love your fiance. In the future
90 not give your love so easily, but
wait until time has tested its depth.
Doubtless you will care as little for
the second young man as you do the
first if you are given the opportunity
to become better acquainted. Do moth
ing to show the second young man that
you are interested in him. Perhaps
when he learns that your engagement
IS broken he will seek you.

for minister to speak in such way,
because he would naturally antagonize
some of his congregation. l do think,
however, that every minister should
be given freedom of speech SO that he
will express what he feels and not sup
press what he believes but is afraid to
say. Language in the pulpit can be
forceful, but at the same time it ought
TO be refined.

ed of chums. Later advices from some of the Canneries are somewhat more encouraging. A heavy run of reds appeared in the Copper river before the season opened, and most of them got up the stream, although some packers of the COrdOva dis trict made a gOOd-sized pack of Cop per river fish at the beginning of the season. For the past month, how ever, the run has been rather light, and the outlook is uncertain. One of the COrdova plants recently re- ported 60 per cent of last years pack for the same date
 Word comes from Ketchikan that the salmon run on the west coast of Prince of Wales island was quickly grabbed by the canneries, and that it has now ceased The information is that the canneries in that section, like those of Chatham and Icy straits and elsewhere in southeastern Alas. ka, have got up about a 50 per cent pack, and they do not expect to do much better than that.-Ketchikan Chronicle.

THIS SEASONS
 SALMON PACK
 BELOW RECORD
Details of Pack of Western and Central Alaska Up to Early in Month of August Is
 Rather Depressing

The Pacific Fisherman in it's Aug ust number prints the following sum- mary of the salmon canning condi- tions along the coast of Alaska:
 Western Alaska pack in 1918.- Kings, 18,3O1 cases; reds, 1,729,622 eases; medium reds, 15,979. cases: pnks, 24,724 cases; chums, *S,965 cases. Total, 1,887,591 cases.
 Early reports of a short pack from the Bristol boy district have often proven erroneous in the past, but advices received from a number of sources during the past few weeks are in substantial agreement to the effect that the pack of this section is only about 40 per cent of that in 1918. These reports were sent out at a time when packing is usually about at an end; and while the final total may show some improvement the pack is evidently shorter than for a number of years. Western Alaska has not fallen below a million cases since 1911 when the pao:I was 743,2O6 cases; the smallest output since then being 1,316,171 cases in 1915.
 The Herendeen Bay pack is very light, the three consolidated canner- ies reporting about 18,0O0 cases at the close of the season, near the end of July, compared with about 65,O0O cases last year and 19,500 in 1917. The Boring Sea canneries were all ready in good time this season, and a very fair pack of kings was re- ported, but the red run was eX- tremely disappointing, and the prin- cipal shortage is in this grade.
 The only favorable report from western Alaska is from the Yukon river cannery, which had some 40,000 cases, mostly fancy kings, before the end of July, with pack of me- dium reds still to come.
 Central Alaska pack in 1918,- Kings, 21,818 cases; reds, 662, ,829 cases; medium reds, 47,9O4 cases; p1nks, 358,491 cases; chums, 313,196 cases. Total, 1,4O4,238 cases.
 The run, even in neighboring parts of this district, seem to have been very irregular. By the end of July the canneries west of Chignik report ed between 30 and 40 per cent of their normal pack, and were waiting for chums, which did not appear. At Chignik, on the other hand, the pack was reported about up to that Of last year on the corresponding date. Reports from Cook inlet are conflicting, but the pack so far seems to be short, the last report showed one of the canneries with 75 per cent of the 1918 pack to the corresponding date, and stated that others were farther behind than that. This section has made a poor show ing for several years. On Kodiak island reports indicate about an average output in the Uyak bay dis trict, while the run on Alitak bay has been very good, with a large pack of reds.
 Prince William sound showed very poor results until recently, and a large proportion of the pack consist
