Juneau Business Man Ad. Wses Men to Get Jobs With Mining Companies
 and Stay With Them
CAN SAVE $1OO MONTHLY
Says Miners Are Better Fed and Cared For Than Average Resi-
 dent of City

H. R. Shepard, the hustling agent of the Equitable Life and other in. surance companies, has returned from a trip during which he visited the Alaska-Jualin mine, located in Der ner's Bay, and the Chichagof mine, located on the west side of Chcha- gof Island. He was greatly impressed with conditions at the mines and gave the following interview to 9 representative of The Empire re garding labor conditions as he found them:
 "In the first place, there is such I demand for labor these days that to secure labor outside if is absolute ly necessary that every convenience possible be supplied in order to re tain help. Not only is it necessary that the men are comfortably housed largely into the question of satis- fving the men. At both places l f1rnd these conditions ideal Al Chichagof they are erecting a large concrete drv-room building which will No cunnlied with stoves. baths, etc , They have spent at least one guar ter million dollars the last year in permanent improvements and the next improvement contemplated, am informed, will be the erection of a large bunk house similar to those at Treadwell and Perseverance mines. These buildings, when com peted, will leave nothing lacking in , the way of comfort. The Jualin mine is already supplied with buildings of this nature.
 Now, just a word regarding the food supnlied at these mines. Evi dently they purchase their supplies and provisions at wholesale prices It is an absolute fact that 1t is costing these firms at least one dol lar and fifty cents per day to feed their men alone and they are boarded and roomed for one dollar per day I have eaten the food prepared for | the men and can state frankly that they are getting a greater variety ol lOOu udliy tudu ny oCii dih nDiS u purchase. In this connection I wish | to say that the food furnished these
 men is properly prepared by com potent cooks and it is not thrown UT
 in any old way.
 q was surprised to learn that mef are coming and going on every boat
 that the camp crews are continually changing, with the exception of tho
 heads at the different departments
 These men seem to fit their position
 and know a good thing when they see it.
 1 Regarding wages, both mines art
 paying four and a half dollars pei day and board for what is termed
 common labor and if man cares
 to save his wages he can live wei
 and save a least one hundred dollars
 per month Where. ask, can com
 mon labor do better?
 You frequently hear some persor
 knocking this or that mine. l want
 to call your attention to one particu lar case that came under my per
 sonal observation on my trip to Chi chagof last week: Several men were employed here at Juneau by the em

100000 YANKS ARE
Y. w. c. A. VISITORS

Four hundred thousand persons and
more served in the cafeteria In one
year is the record Of the Y. w. G. A.
Hostess House at Camp Lewis, Amer
lean Lake, Wash.
The majority of the 100000 diners
were mothers, wives, sweethearts ard
friends who went to the camp to visit
their soldiers. The remainder were
soldiers themselves who broke the mo-
notony Of "chow" with home cooked
meals. In addition to all these guests,
$4,000 little children were cared for in
the nursery and the rest room served
10000 tired wives and mothers.
The workers at the information
desk received and answered $4,000
questions varying from how to get the
best connections to destination clear
across the continent, the rates of SOL
.diers insurance and the kind of Gre
tonne girl bride should have in her
living room now that Private John Is
coming home from France. Eleven
thousand of these queries required tel
tephone conversations with various
company commanders relative to hunt
ing up soldier whose parents had ar
rived Unexpectedly.

Price Drug Company

In the last issue of the Midland Meth.
odist is an article from the pen OF
Bishop Gambler that is sensible and
timely. An appeal was before him
from New Jersey society, for some
kind of an elevation of social conditions
in this country and calling for his finan-
cial and moral backing. Bishop Cand-
Ter uses the appeal as warning to
southern people that the recent war
conditions have served to bring into
existence thousands of these commit
tees, societies. bureaus. etc.. which
are playing upon the sympathies and
feelings of the people to fitch money
from them, much OF which never gets
further than the pockets of the CON-
mittee members. Every citizen of the
country has received many such APP
peals as that before Bishop Gambler and
thousands of them have responded with
believing they were and may
be it was case that the Blsnop warns
against in which the money goes into
the pockets of the committee and gets
no further. Not many of the causes
worthy of support will depend on send
ing letter this far south to appeal for
help. for the very good reason that nine
tenths of the worthy organizations
have committees in each state and in
each county to look after these things
for them. The country certainly needs
a rest from such appeals.
