There is no organization so truly representative of the entire Uni ted States as the American Le- zion. Its members are from ev. cry class. Geographically the membership takes in every state, territory, county, city and town ship. Those who are its mem- bers were taken in equal propor- tion from those districts for ser vice during the war. Maine, at one extreme of the Atlantic coast has 5000 members, Florida has 5000. On the other coast Cali fornia has 20, 900 members, Ore gon 10, 1000. Minnesota has more than 35, ,00O. Arizona more than 5000, New York more than 85,- GOO. Nevada, the smallest state in number of men in service, has nearly 1000 members. So the legion's voice truly reflects every part of America. The views of every section and of every class will be heard on every subject that is brought before the con vention for consideration.
 One thing is assured. The thought, America frst' will be kept in the foreground and not relegated to the background. In that thought the organized men and women who were in service have a common ideal and rallying point which circumstances cannot alter.-American Legion Weekly.

Industrial development, ship ping and home comfort on the Pacific Coast are to a large ex- tent dependent on oil for fuel. There are no great deposits of coal in the Coast states, but Ma ture has given a compensating advantage in the great oil fields O. California. From these comes fuel for most of. our industries, our railroads, the ships that call at our ports. including the grim, grey warriors of the Navy. The oil fields also furnish the crude oil from which is derived the su- per-refned water white oil for heating, cooking and lighting in our homes. The Standard Oil company has done a great service in perfecting methods of refining coal oil, or kerosene, for in Pearl Oil they, have given the house. wife a convenient and economi- cal fuel for all household purposes,
 which burns without smoke or odor. Pearl Oil has become a most important factor in the com fortable home life of the Pacific Coast

Cramer las proved not only efficient official, but he has been very enterprisng and popular citizen of Ju- and the other communities in which he has resided.

However Alaska needs young of the ability, high char acter, energy and stability of MT Cramer greatly that it is unfortunate for that fate gave him his opportunity on the other eide of the Continent rather than in Alaska
 The hundreds of friends of MT. and Mrs. Cramer in Alaska will wish for them all prizes that sue cessful career can bring ~to them, and should the fates ever decree that they return to Alaska the welcome will be general and genuine

 One nice thing about being mar rled IS that you can always cuss your wife when you make a mistake
 In the old days when the land was wet man didn't have to stay at home all night and fight with his wife. He could go up to the kali and spend part of his time.
 You can tell when a girl is posing for you by the way she acts as if you d,d not know that you were mo- ticing her.
 If men would not insist on eating when they have no appetites the Undertaken would not have to use up so many tires on his hearse

Alaska Still Seattle's Big Opportunity
Seattle Times)


 The chief burden of Alaska is the burden of fed eral bureaucracy.
 The resources of the Territory have been con sistently over-admnstered that they have not been developed to anything like their full extent
 A change in the governments policy toward the Territory is due in the near future
 Having completed a railroad there, the Federal authority must see to it that the line pays-if not at once then speedily possible.
 There is but way in which that end may be achieved
 Alaska must be made attractive to settlers and investors.
 The first step be the bringing of Federal control to whatever extent exercised, closer to the country.
 This move inevitably will result in a consoda- tion of Federal bureaus.
 Instead of a flock of them. each having to do with feature of Alaskan affairs there will be bureau dealing with all these matters and resident in the Territory.
 of this kind inevitably would lead to the relaxation of the absurd regula- tions that have acted brake the wheel of prosperity in the Northland for many years
 In achieving this desirable result the assistance Of Seattle be rendered freely the fullest extent
 No other local enterprise should divert the city's attention from the Territorys development.
 Many things influence industry Commerce is directed this way and that by international trade competition.
 But Alaska always will remain at Seatte's front door, contributing to the prosperity of this city just in the proportion that it's natural available for the of increasing population.
