When it is known that there arc
over 5000 employees in the John Wan
amaker store in Philadelphia, it is
very evident that the generosity of
the proprietor will yield consider
able sum TO the Salvation army fund
since Mr.. Wanamaker has offered to
personally chip in" dollar for dollar
of the amount contributed by his en-
ployes But the point is this That
Mr.. Wanamaker has just recently re-
turned to his business after a pro
longed sojourn in Florida. Naturally
the question arises: Who is the man.
however generously inclined, who can
bask in Florida's sunshine imbibing
it's vitalizing ozone, eating of its gold
en- fruits of orange and grapefruit,
and not feel all the more kindly to-
ward humanity, whether in the lowly
garb of Salvation army lassie Or
the more elegant attire Of those f.
nanciaIly well endowed? - Times

About this time in the history o:
every Legislature the solons are, the
objects of considerable criticism for
real or fancied sins of omission or
commission. The present Legisla-
ture is no exception, and there ara
many who are insisting that it has
done the things it should not have
done and left undone the things IL
should bave done. We confess to a
disappointment in its work, because
some legislation of general nature
that seemed very important to the
progress and prosperity Of the State
apparently will not get through But
the Legislature is an average body
reither much better nor much worse
than its predecessors, its member
ship on the whole averaging up to
a pretty high standard. 1t will soon
be a thing of the past and when the
finished work can be reviewed we can
arrive at better estimate Of its
value. We know there are some good
men and big men in the body, and
we know, too that the work OF these
men can be nullified and thwarted by
some mighty little men.

Suppose there should be Legisla-

any measure that would increase

Sometimes we print things that we
feel make people wonder as to our
sanity, but 1t is because of the pc
cnliar ideas some people have about
what is proper matter for publicity
They come to us with all kinds of
things they want written up, and
where no harm can result we print
what they want, though sometimes
with considerable reluctance. We
flatter ourselves, though, that we
have contributed vastly to the peace
OF this community by persuading
people to forego their desire to print
sharp and bitter things, and !nduc-
ing them to go their way and forget
their grievance. In this way we have
been able to nip in the bud many an
incipient enmity and we believe that
is something worth while.

Taku Inlet, Alaska, 900 miles
north of Vancouver and 400 miles
south of Juneau, capital of Alaska,
is unique in that it can be visited by
all the coast steamers and because 1t
is the only place in the world where
a dead and a living glacier OF any
magnitude can be compared side by
side. The dead glacier is on the left
when steaming up the inlet, and. &C
cording to Indian tradition, has not
moved for over 200 years. In that
time, however. it has actually re-
coded about u miles. It's length is
estimated at so miles, width about
two miles, depth of its face about
ESQ feet
The live Taku Glacier lies a mile
and half from the dead one. II is
III miles wide, 800 feet high, from
the water level to the apex of its
pinnacied face, and about 80 miles
long. It's movement varies some
what. hut it moves on an average
about ten feet day into this arm of
the Pacific. Where the wall of ice
leaves the rock channel forming the
shore line. the mighty walls break
and give birth to icebergs which at
times are more than half a million
tons in weight, with a roar which
can be heard for many miles. A
terrific crashing and grinding is
heard continually.
The face of the glacier when cx-
posed to the sun for any considerable
time turns to dead white When the
