out of life. These things happen all
around us. Two farmers Of families
go far an outing, and, wading in the

drops from the sky and an aviator,

passenger is killed. The fatal casu-

many, but does the public mind them?
Is it not too we'll used to them, its

TRAGEDIES OF PEACE
(From The indianapolis Starr

When a family lost son in the
war, wave of sympathy went out
to the bereaved ones from the entire
community. Everyone seemed to
share with especial keeness some
thing of the bitterness of the grief
felt by the parents and the brothers
and sisters. When two sons were
lost, as not infrequently happened, or
even three, it was recognized as a
tragedy almost too terrible to be
borne.
Such losses occur all around us in
time of peace, but do we look upon
them with the same realization that
hearts are broken and lives darkened
because of them, which follows the
death of young soldier? Or do we
stolidly turn away from the tale with
the passing thought that too many &C.
cidents take place, and it is a pity,
and go on to the reading of other
news? 1t seems a little as if we
show too much indifference to the
tragedies of life which are really in
many respects more narrowing and
more pitiful than the fatalities of
war.
In the news columns day or so
ago was brief account of an auto
mobile accident in which three sons
of one family were instantly killed
and fourth. lad of six, perhaps
fatally injured. They were the sons
of farmer going in a new automo-
bile to the nearest village for farm
tool. The eldest of the four, still a
boy, was driving, and he did not see
the coming interurban until he was
on the track. 1t is easy to under
stand that the younger boys had ac-
companied him for the sake of the
ride and that the driver did not know
as much as he should. But they
were all happy, and nothing was
farther from their thoughts than dan.

THE FARMER AND THE STRIKES

1t may sound almost like joke, but
one of our prominent farmers met us
on the street Monday and said: Gal
lemore, what in the h are we
farmers to do? Are we to be ground
between the stones by this railroad
strike? He stated that it is now
nearing time to arrange for cabbage
seed and other fall and winter crops.
What are we to do?" says he. We
want somebody else to answer his
question. Suppose we raise the
crops, have we any assurance that
this strike will be settled in time to
freight our produce to the markets;
or if this ends nows, will there be an
other? What is to become of your
fruit this fall" says he, ''if this, or
some other strike, strikes about the
time fruit should be moved? With
the high cost of labor now and the
uncertainty of transportation, what
we do?" says he. Further he stated
that if strikes are to be the remedy,
why not move for strike of the
farmers all over the county. He said
he believed a move of this kind by the
farmers might force hurry up of the
higher powers to do something We
don't believe in strikes as a remedy,
but who can say that this farmers
ideas are not based on common sense

This man is sore all over and he has

A plan, nationwide in scope, was
today inaugurated by Colonel Arthur
Woods, assistant to the secretary of
war, for factory owners and industrial
corporations throughout the country.
!. 10000 in number to undertake indus
trial training for their workers at the
same time that they pay them suf-
ficient living wage during the period
of their apprenticeship.
This plan originates in the difficult
situation in which the country now
finds itself because of the high cost
Of living and the general industrial
unrest. 1t is felt by the Office of the
assistant to the secretary of war tina.
the fundamental solution of the high
cost of living lies in an increase of
production; and that industrial train
ing the the same time that accom-
plishes this result will also make
every worker whether skilled, semi
skilled or unskilled, feel that he has
real opportunity for advancement
and for an increase in his earning
power.
Investigation by Colonel Woods Of
fee shows that American factories are
running at very low level Of efficien-
cy In New England, for example, ex-
perts state that the factories are not
more than 60 per cent efficient 1t is
estimated that six million men are
being used today to do the work that
four and half million men could do
if they were properly trained. The
average worker, according to these
figures, never attains an output of
more than 35 per cent of his best eff
cheney, simply because he has never
been trained to'do his work properly
Even slight increase in this level OF
efficiency will mean great increase
in the national production and cor
responding decrease in the cost OF
living.
Those employers who have already
been approached with this project
and particularly those who have al.
ready tried the scheme, are thorough.
ly confident of its feasibility and ire
mendous possibilities. 1t is found tina
not only is the productive power o
these men increased, but that the!
actually pay for themselves at tn
same time that they are learning an,
that by the increase in heir individual
efficiency a fund of labor is create
from which experts in technical an
managerial capacities can be recruit
ed. Some factories report doublin
Of the mems output as a result of in
dustrial training. One shoe factor
in Brooklyn reports that a number Q
apprentices recently taken in at 81
per week to learn the work are nov
after three to six weeks of careful
training, earning as high as $40 pc
week.

GERMAN RELIGIOUS AND ETHICAL LEADERS APPEAL TO WILSON FOR
 MITIGATION OF PROPOSED TERMS

BERLIN, April 4.-(P)-An appeal addressed to Pres iden Wilson has been forwarded from here Paris asking him to spare Germany undue humiliation and urging that he his influence mitigate the severity o the peace terms which will be offered Germany by the allies Re- ports regarding the peace conference proceedings which have reached here have produced feeling of uneasiness over what Germany will be asked to do and German leaders hope to prevail upon the American statesman to aid them.
 The appeal which drawn up and forwarded by the leading ethical philosophical and religious societies of Ger many contains warning against so-caled disregard ot the fourteen points of President Wilson's famous address congress in January 1917. It states that Germany has agreed to accept in accord with these principles and no other that the Germans laid down their this understanding.
 The appeal declares that if the Germans driven to desperation they will rather become Boshevk than slaves It says that the allies have provoked anarstc conditions which prevalent in Germany by refusing to relax their blockade
 Discussing possibility of the revival of militarsm in Germany the appeal says that only thing could again weld the Germans of every state into warke power and that is the continuation of the policy of hate and annila tion which the allies pursuing
 An open threat is in the concluding paragraph of the appeal which refers directly to America In this Wi- warned that the United States with its billion dollar trusts is fertile field for communism and suggested that all the American citizens possessing wealth had better unite support of the league of nations of staying the spread of the Boshevi doctrines prevalent in Eu rope.

WILL PROSPECT
 ON ALDER OK.

Con Whaley and A. Weber left recently for Alder creek for the pur- pose of doing some prospecting work. Alder creek, which is in reality the continuation of Cripple creek. has shown many very good indications of having pay streak somewhere in its wide valley. one of It's small tributaries. Emma creek. having been worked for q couple of seasons several years ago.
 While some of the oldtimers con tend that the rich pay located by the Keystone drill operated by Al Benson on the Golden Channel claim. on Cripple creek just below the mouth of Alder, came from an old channel crossing Ester creek from the Ready Bullion dome. 1t Is never. theless the general consensus of opinion among the oldtimers fami- liar with that section that the pay found on the Golden Channel claim is the Alder creek pay.

FAIRBANKS BOY
 GOOD ATHLETE
 FOR HIS SCHOOL

Vincent Buttorovich, former Fairbanks boy who Is attending the Oregon Agricultural college. is fast attaining prominence in athletics on the Pacific coast.
 During his residence in Fairbanks he was prominent in athletics, being a basketball player above the ordi- nary and a track man. On going outside to school he took up athletics there, entering in the wrestling squad. So successful was he at the mat game that in his second school year he was made instructor and later captain of the mat men. His latest achievement in securing lau- rels for his college was the defeat by his squad of the aggressive men representing the University of Wash ington. His men were returned the winners on points by score of 26- 13. This was his first appearance in an Intercollegiate match and it was due to the training the men re- ceived at his hands that they were returned the victors.

 The caribou are reported to be also abundant at Meier's. on the oth CT side of the hummit.
 Another sight to be seen along the route are bands of mountain sheep. which can be easily dis tinguished from the caribou.
