Spitzbereen Possibilities.

"Spitzbergen Ito the north Of Rus
sia) ought to be a region overlooking
with animal life and the resort of
countless millions of birds beyond
those that actually breed there today"
said Sir Martin Conway at the Royal
Geographical society, London. ut
ought to give occupation and an excel
lent livelihood to considerable num-
Der of hardy folk, who, IL they lived
and fed rightly and were properly
housed, should not find the climate too
extreme for a quite tolerable human
life"
The ravages of irresponsible hunt
ers, added Sir Martin. ought TO be re-
strained by small force of honest
and efficient naval police equipped
with a few seagoing motor launches.

CROSSES THE BAR.

Singing with her group of singers,

alton Quartet, Wednesday Of last week
at the Old Colony Hall, little did we
think that it was the last opportunity
we would have had to hear Mrs. Jen-
who not only made good in the art of
singing, but who endeared herself to
the community in which she lived ms
few women do after qualifying in any
who is no respector of persons entered
our circle and in the carrying out of
his mandate removed from our midst
one, whose death occurring Wednes-
pital, pneumonia having set in after
an operation, has shocked this COM
munity to such an extent that Chris
tians as we are, our human frailty
old, "Hath God forgotten to be gra-
cious?" But we must submit to the
will of the Most High God in Whose
hands lay our destinies, and with tits
submission bear with calm resigna-
tion our trials and our losses. In the
prime of youth this friend of all, this
worker who never grew impatient or
tired in her service to the church in
the Improvement of its music, who in
her devotion to the Y. w. C. \. and
its activities stood shoulder to Shout

In French and in English.

An amusing verbal war has arisen
over the prOpriety, meaning and ex-
tent of the French phrase mon Dieu :"
No two interpreters appear to be able
to agree. The phrase in English would
be my God !" but the shades of asso-
citation connected with the French
form and with the English form differ
so broadly that exactly equivalent ex-
pressions and usages of the phrase are
difficult to reach. In French it may
be an innocent exclamation. but in
English-speaking lands 1t may be fiat
blasphemy. The variance seems to
spring from the varying religious ex-
periences of France and England
after the Protestant reformation. In
medieval Europe the presence and ac-
ton of God in the religious plays hab-
ituated the populace to speak of him
quite Familiarity. and the sense Of rev.
erence for his name grew faint. In
England, however, on account of the
influence of Puritanism and then of
Methodism, great reverence for his
name arose, and use of the term my
Godp became distasteful to fine ma
lures. But mon Dleul" somehow
sounds neutrality-suspicious. Spokes-

WILL LIVE FOREVER
Glory Won by American Marines
lmperishable.
Famous Prussian Guard Fled Before
Them at chsteau-ThIerry as Sheep
Before Wolves, and World
Was Saved.

From Arbela to Argonne; from the
| day when Alexander's phalanx bore
down the Persian lines to the day when
the American marines scattered the
| best of Germany like smoke, the Inn
perial guard OF mighty sovereigns has
been the keystone, the central fabric,
the very basis of military power. De
stroy the guard and the morale of ev-
cry royal army vanlshes like mist be-
/ fore the sun.
| Fierce was the fighting on Arbela's
plain, and vain the onsets of the Mace
| domains until the Persian guard gave
way-and night saw the Persian en-
pire in the young invaders hands.
SPANS resistless infantry shook the
earth till the Spanish guard was mown
down by Condo at Rocroy.
At Austerlitz the Russian ranks held
fast till the cars gigantic guards were
cut through and scattered. And the
soldiers at Waterloo, outfianked. out
numbered. would not yield till the
guard gave back upon the fatal slope
OF Mont ST. Jean. So went the story
through the ages-and the last chap
Ter Vi lilDtTlhl anu
glory is fitting epilogue.
Down through the ravaged fields Of
France came the imperial guard Of
Prussia, and the wearied, WORKOUT
men OF France gave ground In grim
despair. The guard was coming. The
guard was conquering. Paris In few
more hours, and victory-a Prussian
peace, won by Williams matchless
guards.
Then, across the wheat fields and
| hills. came the American marines
young fighting devildogs from overseas.
What to them was the glory of the
guard? What cared they for the tall,
| imposing figures, the uniforms, the ma
| chinelike advance of Williams incom-
parallels? The American marines went
into sheepfold-and the fate of all
the world hung in the trembling bal
ance as the struggle ragged.
1--WE saw a few black dots break
from the guard and struggle down the
hill; then a dark blot on the hillside;
then the guard reeled and its whole
great mass came staggering down. All
is lost-the guard recoils." So spoke
the historians who watched at Water
loo.
So it was at ChateauThierry. First
few gray dots broke from the far
side of the wood then more and more
then. panic stricken. Keeling. whipped,
the Prussian guard came madly out
and onward and away. The guard re-
coiled-the day was lost-Germany
] 90. u
lost.
When the guard breaks. the doom
of any king is sealed. 1t was so three
thousand years ago, and what may be
the last tale of the wreckage of an
Imperial guard Is but the final confir
nation OF the old, old story.

Robert Zilkey Receives
 News of Death of Son

Robert J. Zilkey. a few days ago, received the sad news of the death of his son who was killed in France almost a year ago. Mr. Zilkey had three sons and four nephews in the service. One son and two of the nephews were all killed within four days at the battle of Argonne Forest.
 Mir. Zilkeys son was 2S years of age and enlisted from Challis, Idaho. The death of the son is particularly trying to Mir. Zilkey because of the fact that the last message received from young Zilkey stated that after the wal was over he was coming north tt join his father.
 Robert Zilkey hss been 12 years in Alaska and has lived in tht vicinity of Wrangell for the pas nine years. He has the deepes sympathy of his many friends il Wrangell.
