was esteemed above all

workmen of Eastern coun-
tries have held the supreme

Harry C.

And Harry is glad to get back, too. Fourteen months in the States was quite enough for him. and he is now in Nenana to settle down. Get that, girls? settle down.
 Harry was in California practically all the time he was Outside, and admits that he had pretty good time. But when Dr. Smith hunted him up and talked to him about get. ting into the harness again at Ne mana, he was ready to come. He made the trip in with the Smith party. .. .~.:"

BRIDE ACCOMPANIES
 RETURNING MERCHANT

Among yesterdays passengers on
 the steamer Yukon were Richard C..
 Morris, of the firm of Fowler & Morris, and his bride, their arrival here completing a journey of many thousands of miles, North Wales to Nenana
 MT. Morris left Nenana for the
 Old Country last April, going out by way of the Broad Pass trail. He went almost direct to Dolgelley, North Wales, the home of Mrs.
 Morris, who was Miss Luned Lewis before the arrival there of the sour dough Northerner, and six weeks were spent .on the other side of the Atlantic.
 MT. Morris says that considerable difficulty was experienced in secur- ing passage to the United States, all reservations to New York hav- Ii ing been sold out for some time ahead. In order to avoid long wait, the newlyweds took a steamer for Nev Orleans
 The reason for the congested con- dition, MT. Morris says, is not due so much to increased travel as to
 the lack of boats, the majority of
 which are still engaged in transport ing troops, to the exclusion of all other business.
 ] MT. and Mrs Morris will make
 their home on the second floor of
 the Fowler & Morris building, where
 comfortable living quarters have been arranged.

FNE-OAY WEEK
 FOR WRITER'S IS
 PUBLISHERS PLAN

. LONDON-All the regular edi- tors, special writers and reporters of The Times, the Daily Mail, and the Evening News are to have two days each week for rest or recrea- tion under the ''fve-day working week" which Lord Northcliffe is in- troducing in his newspaper proper ties.
 The writing staffs of The Times and the Daily Mail already have been reorganized on this basis, and the system is to be extended to the News.
 | The same system is to be ar ranged in the near future for all others on these papers, including all members of the business staffs, the printing and mechanical forces. This is not possible at present on account of the scarcity of skilled labor. 1 Lord Norhtcliffe's view is that all men, especially those engaged in brain work, attain their highest ef- fciency by this division of work and recreation, and by a complete change at these regular and ire quent intervals.
 ] The chief rival of Lord North cliffe in adherence to the theory of short hours and better work is the great soap magnate, Lord Lever hulme, formerly William Lever. His ambition is to have working day of six hours for all his thousands of employees, and he has even hinted at a four-hour day as a pos sibility of the future

STEAMER IANANA
 HERE WITH LOAD

The steamer Panama, which was sent down the river to relieve the Seattle No. of two barges enroute up the Yukon from St. Michael. returned to port shortly after nine last night and will leave for Fair banks sometime this evening. A considerable portion of the freight landed by the Panama was discharg- ed here, including 130 tons of gen. eral cargo for the Northern Com mercial company and 40 tons of frozen beef for the Alaskan En- gineering commission. While the freight was being unloaded, the Tan ana washed boilers.
 The passengers aboard the Tana- na included Mir and Mrs. D. L. Me Cornell, for Fairbanks, and A. L. Manger, Louis Lupan, R. NJ. Cope land, and M. T. Robinson.
 Upon arrival at Fairbanks, the Panama will be tied up and Captain Green and the members of his crew will transfer to the Reliance and proceed to the upper Tanana with load of freight for Tanana Cross. ing and points in that district. The Reliance has been undergoing re pairs for the voyage, which is one of the hardest known to Interior river boats.
 The barges in tow of the Tanans are the Arizona and the cold stor. age barge McNab.

SMITH IS BACK
 FROM WAR ZONE;
 KEEN FOR WORK

Dr. Malcolm E. Smith, who came to Nenana as chief surgeon of the Alaskan Engineering commission hospital when work Was started on the Government railroad in Interior Alaska, and who gave up his work here temporarily to assist in the hospital work overseas, returned home yesterday on the steamer Yu- kon, to resume his old place as head of the local hospital. He was ac- companied by Mrs. Smith. Dr. Thos. o. Lake, who will be assistant sur geon, and Harry G. Abercrombie, who will resume his old place as anaesthetist at the hospital.
 Dr. Smith left Nenana fourteen months ago to enter the medical branch of the American army. He was stationed first at Camp Fremont, California, and from there was sent to Base Hospital No. 95, at Perigueux, France, with the rank of captain, where he remained for six months, returning to the United States after the close of the war, and starting for Nenana at the first opportunity.
 Dr. Smith believes that Alaska is on the eve of an era of develop ment which will bring prosperity to the various districts which have been standing still since the early days of the war. Nenana, in his opinion, has a splendid chance to gather in large share of that pros, perity, and he says he is here to help in the forward movement in any way that he can.
 Times are good in the States, he says, but there appears to be a feeling of unrest everywhere Out side and conditions, on that account are very unsettled. There is bound to be a readjustment sooner ol later, and he believes Alaska vii be helped greatly when the change comes.
 During the absence of Dr. SmitF in Europe, Mrs. Smith divided hel time between Danbury, Conn.,, an. Brooklyn, in both of which cities sht has relatives.
 The Smiths will occupy the cot tage recently vacated by Dr. ans Mrs. David H. More.
