 We wish to congratulate the Cor dOva Times on the way it puts up it's telegraphic news. We venture to say that's the best first page of news in the territory.-Juneau Clean.
 There are numerous old ShaCkS in Juneau that are untenanted, unsani- tary and unsightly. They should be removed. The city council should act in this matter.-Juneau Empire
 Judging from the number of tour ists that are coming to Alaska this season, crowding the Northerners off the boats, it certainly appears that the former are practicing the slogan of seeing America first "-Ketchikan Chronicle.
 The assignment of Captain M. H. Faust to duty Outside is a distinct loss to Valdez. Captain Faust has virtually grown up with Alaska, hay ing been stationed here many years, first as M. E. of the signal corps, and later in charge of the office here. We believe that Captain Faust knows Alaska better than any military man within the borders of the territory to- day, and many of his suggestions, adopted by the war department, have made great saving in time and money.

Dillon Boy to be Decorated.

A letter received in Dillon = re"
DAYS ago states that Jesse Evans son
OF DR.. and Mrs. A. ]. Evans, is TO De
decorated for distinguished bravery
on the field Of battle. Jesse was with
CARLYLE Bracey when he fell. In the
party were two other boys whose
names are not given, but when Car
lyle fell badly wounded the other
bows ran. The shells were coming
down almost as thick as hailstones'
but Jesse knelt beside his fallen com
panion and bandaged the lacerated
arm, thus probably saving Carlyle S
life. When he had stopped the ITO"
of blood four Germans who came
along as prisoners were ordered TO
take up q stretcher and Carlyle was
carried back to the emergency nos
pital. For this act Of signal bravery
Jesse is to be among those who Will
receive decorations from the king.

EDITORIALS:
ADVERTISEMENTS ARE EDUCATING.

THE day has passed when the manufacturer and mer-
chant looked upon advertising of the evils and
penses attached to the conduct of business They realize
it's value to all lines of business and appreciate it's worth
in selling their products and wares Take new article
on the arke-how is it soldthe first steps to be taken
by the producer is to advertise it. Without proper adj
vetising the article would not be known and all the talk
of an army of travelling statesmen could not make it
success. Through the newspapers it is announced; its
merits given and the people buy Ii the article is what is
claimed for it by it's producers it will find ready SALE
if properly advertised but if it is not reputable
in their columns However, it has been proved that
article Of merchandise can be successfully placed on the
market without newspaper advertising and that advefs
ing has ceased to be considered expense business
man. but it is considered an investment which pays
dividend to any business advertised.
The Associated Advertising, leading journal on ad-
vertsng the following to say of the value of advers
ing and its worth:
"Gladstone was once quoted with the statement that
his best gauge of the commercial progress of the United
States was obtained through the reading of the advertise
ments in American magazines.
"Jesse H. Neal of the Associated Business Paper,
Inc told few days ago. of letter from in South
they could read but few words of English often asked
him for American magazines when he was through with
them and he found that they used dictionary to trans
late-not the articles, but the advertisements
1.-TWO or three years ago man in very small town
in the Southwest wrote this association that he had
education himself through the reading of advertisements
He had learned in this manner to read and write; and
he wrote WE'LL too"
All this leads to the thought that we who have grown
accustomed to the wonders of modern advertising is
applied to the needs of business this continent hardly
realize how dependent upon advertising for new
ideas for information and education in most of the
useful things of life
