MUST PRESERVE THE SALMON
Fish in the Yukon River Should
Be Prohibited.

In the Outposts of the far North is
An important churchman, Hudson
Stuck, archdeacon Of the Yukon, who,
writing in the New York Times about
the disappearance of big game, says
that the concern should be not so
much about big game but about far
greater danger which threatens all the
inhabitants of the interior Of Alaska,
namely the destruction of the Yukon
salmon, main subsistence of the whole
country. Indeed he says the whole
economy of the Yukon country is built
upon dried salmon. All the other re-
sources Of the country are more or
less dependent upon this noble fish
The salmon is the harvest Of the riv-
ers, the only generally dependable
recourse, although, like the harvest Of
the earth, it has It's fat and lean years.
To save the salmon the archdeacon
says there Is no recourse but the pas
sage Of bill by congress forbidding
commercial fishing in the Yukon and
adjacent waters.

LAND OF HILLS AND RAVlNES
Reasons Why Mountainous Madeira Is
Somewhat of a Trial for the
Traveller on Foot.

OF all civilized parts of the world,
Madeira is the most difficult to get
about in. This is because so much of
It's landscape Is, as it were, set on
edge.
Once upon time a volcano broke
loose in the sea-floor where Madeira
is now located. 1t built up an enOr-
nous mountain, which 1t presently
thrust above the surface, and kept
on at the business until four lofty
islands had come into being. Two Of
these are even now uninhabited. The
larger of the other two is called Ma
deira and Is terrifcally mountainous,
with many rugged peaks, the highest
Of which has an elevation of nearly
a mile and quarter. Much of the
coast is an irregular line of lofty
precipices.
The islands, built Of lava (the
group is called "the Madeiras"), are
so rugged, with steep hills and deep
ravines, that travel by any ordinary
means is hardly practicable. Hence
tourists who visit them and well-to-do
residents are commonly carried in lit
ters or drawn in curious sled-carriages
by bullocks.
The Madeiras belong to Portugal
and are $50 miles west of the coast
Of Morocco. To keep the rich soil
from being washed off the mountain
side, incredible labor has been eX-
pended in the making of terraces. No
wine of it's kind approaching in quality
the old-time product of Madeira has
been known; but about seventy-five
years ago. the vines were well nigh
destroyed by fungous disease, and
the output since then has been Of
markedly inferior excellence.

) his hand. At the sudden touch Jack
forgot his father, his usiness-every-
thing but the girl at his side.
"Jocelyn!" he cried hoarsely and
folded her In his arms.
And Jocelyn. her velvet eyes lifted
to his, let him see the love and surren-
der in them.
you're going to marry me, girl he
said, shaking her little to emphasize
his seriousness, "as soon as we can get
the license after we dock"
"All-aIl right" said Jocelyn. breath
less, but happy.
True to his word, Jack, the day the
tow reached port, went up to the city
hall to make Investigations. Then he
went around to the post office for his
accumulated mail-bills, letter from
the firm. one from his father. Poor
father! What surprise he was going
to get when he received the letter Jack
had just mailed. Yet father got In his
surprise first.
Dear Jack-Don't know where this
will find you. I shall be In Georgian
bay very shortly. Am going to marry
Mrs. Cynthia Arnold. Everything Q,
X. at factory. Yours,
DAD"
Slowly Jack folded the letter and
slipped 1t In his pocket. SO his father
was going TO be married and going 10
Georgian bay for a honeymoon. He
knew the lady by hearsay-knew that
she was quietly well-to-do. of unas-
sailable social position. This unex-
pected alliance on his fathers part
would not make the bargeman's daugh-
ter any more welcome to his father.
Well, as far as that went, he would
give up his father his business, every
thing, before Jocelyn.
And then Jocelyn gave him the great
est surprise Of all.
'It's all right about the license, hon
ey," he said. Then, holding out his
fathers letter, "as long as you're COM
ing into the family, you might as well
know you're going to have a step-moth-
er-in-lnw. 7 hone no will he happy. No

But Jocelyn was reading, "Am going

WHY
PhonOGraph Gives Us Such
Faithful REPRODUCTION

Few people know why 1t is possible
to reproduce the vocal or instrumental
art Of great artist with the faithful
ness of the modern photograph. In
the first place, 1t should be remem-
bered thet sound waves gradually di-
minish In volume If released In large
space of air, just as the ripples caused
by tossing pebble into a still pool
gradually become smaller.
The record" consists of one long
groove having indentatiOns of varying
sizes in 1t to represent the sound
waves to be reproduced. These small
mdentatiOns are either in the bottom
or sides of the groove. At the begin
ming and end Of the groove there are
no indeDtatiSns, as 1t Is desirable to
have space for the stylus to run in
antil 1t can be removed from the rec
ord, If finishing playing, and when
starting the record it is desirable to
place the stylus In the groove before
any Of the indentations are reached.
AS soon as the stylus or needle is
placed in the groove of the revolving
record, only slight kissing sound Is
produced until the sound indentations
are reached. AS soon as the stylus
strikes these tiny distractions vibra-
lions are set up which are conducted
TO the center Of the diaphragm of the
reproducer.
Then just as the ripples of water
roll away from the spot where the
stone struck, the vibrations spread
throughout the reproducing membrane,
re-creatlng the original sounds, al
though in a reduced volume. The re-
volving Of the record at even speed
causes the vibrations to follow each
other in their proper order.
The diaphragm must be of absolute
Iy even graduations or "blasty" repro
ductiOn will result. AS the sound
waves are then increased, we might
say transformed" by passing through
the graduated sections Of the tone
arm.
AS the size of the tone arm in
creases the sound waves expand, thus
bringing back much of the original vol
uTne. The next time your talking ma
chine" does not work well you can
solve the trouble quicker If you use a
little common sense and remember
about the still pool and the ripples.-

HOW:

CLOTHES AIDED COL. LAW
RENEE TO UNITE TRIBES.
In at least one part Of the
world, and I'm one important
phase of the conflict, 1t now
comes out that clothes played an
important part in winning the
war" and these were the clothes
In which Colonel Lawrence uni
ted the desert tribes against the
Turks. 1t may even be argued
that without the clothes the fact
could hardly have been accom-
plished. "The magnificent Be-
dol.in costumes that Lawrence
wore much of the time"
says Lowell Thomas In Asia,
"were not q theatrical pose.
They were a carefully worked
out part Of his plan for
complete Arab mastery" Know
ing the Arabs as he did, the
young English archeOloglst had
found that the adoption of Arab
dress carried the wearer much
further into the confidence of
the Arabs; but that it must be
done completely or not at all,
for the Englishman In Arab kit
must needs live up to his cos
tune and seem as familiar with
Arab life and etiquette as il he
had been born to it. 1t was no
splendid masquerade of an ad-
venturous being, as many read
ers have probably imagined, but
rather, as Colonel Lawrence
has himself described it, like an
"actOr in a foreign theater,
playing a part day and night
and for an anxious stake" The
part had to be composed" as
well as costumed; the audience
was an audience of expert OBJ
servers; and If the actor had
at any point failed in his part
the Bedouin tribes could hardly
have been held together. Wear
ing Arab costume himself when
ever he was with the tribes, he
advised officers unacquainted
with Bedouin customs to wear
their uniforms. Hats, however,
were always better discarded In
favor of the Arab headcloth, for
Bedouins have a very general
prejudice against hats.

Lawyers Great Britain and United
States Are Trustees of Humanity.

st. Louis, Aug. 28.--The bplshevih
were pictured as enemies of democracy
of Lincoln's ideal of government of the
people, by the people, in an address by
Sir Auckland Geddes. delivered before
the American Bar Associations annual
convention here today. The British
Ambassador declared that the bolshe>
Wiki were the real reactionaries en-
deavoring to establish a privileged
class called the proletarlat; to force
on society a great idea, regardless of
whether society wanted it.
Sir Auckland declared that Great
Britain and the United States "are CO.
trustees for humanity that the theory
and practice of democracy shall not
suffer distortion or dimunition in spite
of avalanches of assault loosened
upon 1t by it's enemies" He said that
democracy should be protected from
the attacks by "all who desire to
benefit humanity through some great
idea of incalculable good. by all who
as individuals seek for themselves
privileges over their fellows and deny
the equality of men before the law"
Sir Auckland defined the idea OF
government that constitutes the prec-
ious heritage for which the two nations
are co-trustees as being: First that
the revelation of the divine will is
made through the understanding of all
men; second. that this can be ex-
pressed in laws made by the people for
the governance of the executive Off
GERS whom they appoint as well as for
the maintenance of national discipline
among themselves
Sir Auckland said that Lincoln best
epitomized the best form of govern
ment the human race had been able to
devise as by the people, for the peo-
pie" but, he added. 81 wonder how
many realize what a tremendous revo-|

how little it has been tested. Only
