above, this fun distance. A railway from Nome to Haines, along the foot of the north slope of the range would give the Interior crosswise transportation, so to speak, which is as essential as lengthwise transport ation. This lateral railway would open up the Interior side of the Alaska range as nothing else can do. It would bring back to activity a host of prospectors. It is big plan and it will give big results. It will open up an empire.
 How can this lateral railway be obtained for the Interior? My sug- gestion is to deal with "big men, who can see the future and who are statesmen at heart. Men like Payne or like Hoover, set up by his ow1, profession as the ranking engineer of the world, and who is in line to succeed Payne in the interior de- rartment, can grasp the results that can be obtained by such develop ment. Brooks is a man of the proper calibre and could do much for us. Col. Steese and Col. Gotwals, when they started the campaign for a million dolloars every year for ten years as a road fund, showed them selves as constructive engineers to whom it will be worth while for us to tie. Such men as the above, through the positions they hold, car, do much to advance our interests. Let Washington know our wants and needs.
 Last month the Mt. Mckinley Gold Placers located power right at Wonder lake. This lake is 300 feet above Moose creek, on the lief; limit and is located a short distance above Eureka. The stepaee and spill-over from the Nj ,K;nlcy rive, replenishes the water in the lake By running ditch for six or eight miles to tap Mckinley river enough power can be manufactured for the whole of Kantishna, right or the ground. kantishna has neither coal nor wood. With cheap power concentration of the leaner ore: would bring many propositions tc the producing stage and save ths awful waste under present condi tions of mining.
 During the summer of 1919, wher the Treadwell representatives visited the Kantishna, Mcdonald, one o. the members of the party, made tn, statement that if their company hat the ''Atken holdings" they would build a smelter, treat the ore on thu
 ground and not ship q pound of ore
 His suggestion gives food for thot ! The Nenana Commercial club ha done some good work on the 'smelt

When the Strand opens it's doors this
afternoon. Phoenix will be given the
oportunity to witness another produc-
ton which further establishes Cecil B.
DeMsile as the screens greatest direc-

his latest success, Something to Think

There has never been a picture play
at the Strand that comes with any
higher recommendations that have pre-
coded this production. It's record run
at Grauman's Rialto theater in Los An
geles is NelI known to Phoenicians, for
the picture is still the attraction at that
house where tremendous crowds are
still on hand every day TO see it, and
this despite the fact that the produc-
ton has already enjoyed an engage
rnent extending over several weeks.
There is no sign of abatement in the
interest in the acost city. and it has
become the reigning topic OF converse

out the country it has attracted the at

EDDIE YOUNG. ACORT,
IS ALSO COMPOSER

There is a lad with the Brandon
Stock company at the Elks, theater
who is attracting more than passing
notice each week and has won himself
place that could not easily be filled
He is Eddie Young, the clever dancer
who also stages the numbers with the
girls and is responsible for a great
deal OF the comedy.
An interesting feature that is not
generally known, is the fact that nearly
all of Eddie's stuff" is original. He
writes his own sogns, sets them to
music and arranges his own dances.
This week, starting today at the mat
inee, he will introduce his latest song
hit, Dancing on the Moonlit Sands"
1t is a very catchy strain with a pop
ular swing and serves to introduce
dancing novelties that will make il a
| feature number
Mr., Young has written several songs
| for vaudeville acts playing the biggest
| circuits and has some very flattering
| offers from the eastern publishers for
| Moonlit Sands" Just as soon as he
decides on his publisher and this big
novelty number is released 1t is bound
to have a tremendous sale.

absolutely new to motion pictures,
md with that same genius and skill
which has marked every release bear
ng his name, Cecil B. DeMille has
succeeded in establishing new stan
lard of motion picture excellence and
Influence. 1t is regarded as one of the
most important pictures the screen has
seen in years, and has inspired a line
of thought everywhere that has never
before been accomplished by any di-
rector.
Cecil B. DeMille's well known proc
livity for exceptional casts is main
tanned to the utmost in the company
which interprets this theme Gloria
Swanson is the leading lady, with Ell
lott Dexter playing the opposite role
Monte Blue will be seen in the biggest
assignment he has ever had. Theodore
Roberts is again in the company
fact that guarantees the character lead
in the best of hands Julia Faye and
Theodore Kosloff are also members of
this DeMille cast, as are James Mason
and Mickey Moore.
The Strand announces that Some
thing to Think About will be offered
without advance in prices, and again
urges attendance wherever possible
during the matinee screenings.
Special music by both the Strand
orchestra and George ]. Hays at the
giant pipe organ will feature this en-
gagement, which will doubtless prove
one of the most notable so far this
season.

RED CROSS TOCARE
FOR WOUNDED VETS
Appropriates $4,000 to Pro-
vide Treatment for Men
AT Vocational Schools.

An appropriation Of $4,000 TO pro-
vide medical care and treatment for
wounded war veterans under training
by the Federal Board for Voca atlonal
Education has been made by the
American Red Cross.
Through decisions OF the Comp
troller OF the Treasury. the funds OF
the Federal board cannot be expended
To provide for these men medical at
tention for disease or injury not
directly traceable TO military or naval
service.
Great hardship has been worked on
those In training who are financially
unable TO provide the necessary care
and treatment for themselves In the
event OF injury or illness. and the
board asked the Red Cross for assist
ance until Congressional action can
relieve the situation.
Instances of the need for medical
care among these men are brought 10

from all its districts From one dis
trict comes the report OF the injury
OF q veteran who was being taught
saddlery. While at his machine his
hand was pierced by the needle and
otherwise bruised. The ruling OF tbs

use OF funds for medical attention
necessary In this case, as in many
others.

provide care for the trainees until tho
matter is placed before Congress.

"True community spirit was Gre
ated and cultivated BY the pioneers
who are 1t this messing today"
Miss Mollie McEniry Of Moline said |
in welcoming the Old Settlers as
ISOLATION which met In It's fifty NTH
annual reunion 1t the Watch Tower
yesterday.
THE people gathered here today
and their ancestors" Miss McEniry
said, had the real community
spirit. In the early days when they
settled these broad fields, they ex-
tended welcoming hand to the
newcomer, made him feel at home
among them. Their hardships and
privations made them one in this
primitive age. They worked to-
gether in this way. In the days be-
fore packing houses the neighbors
helped each other butcher. the w0-
men helping in the house. This
time each year was looked forward
to with a great deal OF pleasure, as
It was threshing time, apple-par-
ing time. etc.
Played and Worked Together.
Community workers say We
must play together, must sing to-
gether, must work together and
must get together. Our members
and our ancestors did. They
worked their farms together, that
had apple pairing meetings. they did
their butchering together. they held
spelling schools, singing schools
and then even though these singing
masters didn't have as much pep as
the masters of today they got by
lust the same; in time Of sickness
they nursed each other: they shared
each others sorrows and joys.
