EDUCATING SHIPPERS

\ nationwide campaign to i'm prove the nations express service was inaugurated on February 10 by the American Railway Express com pany through the 135,O0O men ar ! women employed in the express business. The purpose is to interest the shippers and the people gencr- ally in this government organiza- tion's plan to raise the standards of packing, wrapping and marking express shipments with view to minimizing the waste of time. effort and money that result from pack ages being lost or damaged through lax methods of preparing them for sending forward.
 While shippers and the public are being educated to pack. wrap and mark shipments properly, the Amer ican Railway Express company will campaign among its own employees, instructing them to avoid rough handling, mis-routing and other devil ations from correct express methods in offices and terminals, and this closer supervision is expected to improve internal operating condi- tions. Better service campaign committees" will be organized and -four minute speeches" will be made to drivers. platform men, office and claim bureau clerks, car messengers and other employees. Start express shipments right" texts will be placed on posters to be placed on express wagons and on window placards.
 Between July l and Nov. 30, 1918 mo mark bureaus of the company received l27,S59 shipments which the company had been unable to de- liver because all means of indifica- ton of either shippers or consignees had been lost, and part of the cam paign will be made to eradicate this mo mark" evil and induce shippers to place Identification marks on shipments in addition to the address tags. Use of inferior quality of irvine and paper will be discouraged.

LOCOL SLAV INTERESTS
 MEET ENCOURAGEMENT

The Slav men who are seeking to interest men of their own race in a general and orderly effort for self improvement are meeting with very decided encouragement. They are showing the true American spirit in the way they are starting their movement. Each man who becomes interested in the plans and declares his purpose to support the movement, goes out to find at least one other man whom he may inter est and enlist in the work. One man, in thinking over MT. Diven's address on the relations of foreign born people to the Government. ex- pressed his hearty conviction that. as a class, they have been better treated than they would be in any other country in the world. and that they have not been availing them selves of the opportunities already offered for self improvement in line with the spirit and aims of the United States. He feels that as a people they should not confine their thought merely to getting enough to eat and to wear, and to pay travel ing expenses to some other locality whenever they may wish to shift around a bit. but that the time has come when they must acQuaint themselves with the language of the country, with the country's institu- tions, and link themselves up with the many lines of public effort in behalf of public improvement. For example, all should understand the value and aim of the public library and should support the public lib- rary. at least to the extent of the small yearly membership fee, even though they may not yet be able to make any very extensive use of the library's contents. This man realizes that our country's strength and greatness depend upon the united interest and effort of its individual citizens Many older resi- dents of Amerca might profit by such a bit of wisdom. carefully con- sidered.

NEW BRITISH AIRCRAFT

British naval authorities announce that the rigid airships" of the super-Zeppelin type now under con- struction in Great Britain will be at least twice as good as anything Britain now possesses and probably superor to any other airships in the world"
 Although no details of these new airships have been made public, the naval authorities say the German modern super-Zeppelin have capac- ity of approximately 100000 cubic feet of gas, and possess a range of action from 4,0OO to 5000 miles with maximum full speed of about 75 miles an hour and the ability to rise to height of about 10000 feet.
 IL is claimed that the rigid air ships now in use or about to be constructed could, in settled weather cross the Atlantic and return with out descending. It is also asserted that a rigid airship of 10.0O0,000 cubic feet capacity could carry a commercial load of about 15O tons over such distance as the trans Atlantic passage. Naval authorities are quoted here as saying that the building of these huge airships is a practicable proposition

MRS. CHANQUIST LEAVES
 FOR HER HOME AT PANAMA

On the last stage leaving Fair banks for Panama, Mrs. Charles Chanquist took passage for the army town and, it is believed that she intends to dispose of her holdings there and go Outside.
 Mrs. Chanquist arrived in Fair banks recently from the States, en- route to Panama. and has been re- siding in the upper town for a few days.
 Mrs. Chanquist has recently been through very trying times; fate has been more than unkind to her She went Outside last summer and it was the intention of her husband and son to join her in the States, going out on the last boat of the season for that purpose.
 Shortly after her arrival in the States her baby was born, but did not live long. The influenza then made a raid on her family, with the result that her mother, two brother and sister succumbed to the dis ease and she herself had a bad at tack of it. Shortly after her re- covery she heard of the Sophia dis aster, on which boat both her hus- band and son had taken passage.

FOR WORLD REFORM

An appeal to the Christian public of Great Britain to support the prin- ciple of self government of all peoples qualified for 1t has been sent from New York to the leading newspapers of Great Britain and Ireland by the National Committee on the Churches of the Moral Aims of the War. This committee has been conducting a campaign thru the American churches in support of President Wilson's policies in prosecuting the war, international justice and a league of nations. l. comprises representatives of the Church Peace Union, the League to Enforce Peace, the Federal Coun- cil- of the Churches of Christ in America and the World Alliance for international friendship through the churches.
 The appeal is signed by former President William H. Taft, Alton B. Parker, Hamilton Holt. the Rev. Charles s. Mcfarland. and the Rev. Sidney L. Guilck and others.
 They assert in their appeal that foremost among the moral aims of the American church is ''the principle of self-government, self determination and, in the due and fit end. independence for all peoples with reference to their development, their training in elf-government and their final and complete self direction.
 We believe" continues the ap- peal. that this policy should be applied to all the acquisitions of any of the Allies. Lands, islands and peoples, not yet advanced in social organization, government. or capacity for the articulate ex- pression of their desires may re- quire control, direction and educa- tion. Such should be kept in tutel- age until they are able to speak for themselves and act on thei, own account; but this should be done solely for them, for their de, velopment, and for their free and self-governing future, and not unde, preteXt whatever to provide the world with their products and fur. nish profit for others.

 Writing to Mrs. Maude Bishop from West St. John, N B., under date of January s, Mrs. Love, for mer postmaster of Nenana, says that she got right into war work as soon as she reached her home and is still hard at it. The work she says. is greatly different from the Red Cross work i'll Nenana. as they are more in the actual war zone, as it were.

 The city was in darkness every night and even the street cars ran without lights, as the people ex- pected to be bombarded by the sub marines where were believed to be close by.
 The news of the signing of the armistice was received by the people with wild delight, and great cele- bration of a lengthy nature was in- dulged in.
 Then the flu invaded the town and caused sad havoc, she says. The disease wiped out whole families and caused more distress and suffer- ing than could be described. Owing to the inability of the majority of the people to attend to their house. hold duties, iiet kitchens were started by the government, and if teen women at time took turns at cooking food. which the autos distributed and in thls manner thous. ands of lives were saved Mrs. Love expresses the hope that the flue will never reach Nenana Her family escaped the disease.
 Just now, she says, the govern ment has it's hands full in getting back and relocating returning sol diers. From six to eight thousand of them come in at a time. Most of them are married to French an English girls. The soldiers arrive on one transport and their wives on the following. Twenty thousan women nave arrived so far and. shr, says, seventy thousand more are due shortly. This, she says, is hard on the Canadian girls. The incoming women are met by delegation of women from the city; those who are i'll are sent to hospitals and those who are able to travel are sent to destinations in care of nurses who are paid S4.10 a day by the government for their services and are allowed a rest of four days after their duties have come to an end.

'oay-an institution which fills an impor-
tant place in the business life of Seattle.
Originally the farm followed the GUS
tomary practice of wholesaling its prod
ucts, but because of growing interest in
the farm, and demand for its products
at retail, the farm established its own
delivery service six years ago. The pres
ent city plant was established in 1916,
principally As a distributing depot for
the delivery trucks. A retail store was
opened As part of this plant, where the
Hollywood products were sold directly
to consumers. Because of the greatly in
creased cost of delivery in recent years
it was possible to sell the products in the
store at prices considerably less than for
the same article delivered, and the store
customers were given the advantage Of
this saving. As a result of this policy,
the store grew to such proportions that
delivery service was abandoned alto
gether more than a year ago, and the
producing capacity of the farm has been
steadily increased to keep pace with It.
The store has been twice increased in
size, until it now occupies more than -four
times it, original floor space. The lat
