San Francisco, Abe Reuf, had a friend who wanted the doctors job. Presto! The doctor was without; but not for long. Marshalling her forces like good tactician, she brought them to bear on the opposi- tion. Led by Dr. Edward T. Devine, personal representative of President Roosevelt and professor of Economies at Columbia university, who was at San Francisco at that time, the ar ray was formidable and should have proven successful but, alas!
 The following day the newspapers contained interesting comments re- garding the refusal of Dr. Devine's request by the political powers of San Francisco. At this critical mo- ment General Funston took charge of the situation. Again newspaper comments; but this time upon the ex- traordinary circumstance of young woman holding up San Francisco politics for days and beating the game. Dr. von Zesch had been re- appointed.
 The doctor has also been dentist on the staff of the children's hospi- tai of San Francisco and the Maria Kip Orphanage.
 Again in 1908 Dr. von Zesch ac- complished success in a unique un- dertaking. When the U. s. battleship fleet sailed around the world with its personnel of approximately 2S,00O men, she asked for, and obtained the dental work for the entire fleet.
 The doctor employed forty men during that time who worked on the ships while they lay in harbor at the various seaports on the Pacific Coast, while she travelled from ship to ship overseeing the work.
 Dr. von Zesch admitted being the only woman ever employed in the capacity of dental surgeon for the U. S. navy, but speaking of this ex- perience she said smiling broadly, Never again. Those days were very interesting but to continue such work one should embody the active principles of steel, India rubber and pirate"
 The doctor has made a host of friends in Cordova as she has where terested and proud of her achieve ments.

SAILORS HAVE
 CLOSE ESCAPE
 STARVATION

MANILA, Dec. Il (by Associated ss).-Thirty four Malay sailors, shipwrecked and finally landed on Batag Island, near the island of Sa- mar, were brought to Manila in a seri- ous condition from hunger. They spent nearly a month on the barren island, subsisting entirely on the meager supply of wild fruit they were able to gather, finally being picked up by a reconnoitering party of Philip pine constab bulary from headquarters on the Island of Samar.
 The Malays set sail from Mangias, a Dutch possession in the Celebes sea, in small vessel loaded with rice which they expected to trade to the natives in the southern Philippine group for other produce. Their ves- sel was capsized during a storm and their entire cargo lost They drifted in two small boats to the island of Batag where they were picked up.

ESTIMATE OF ISLAND SUGAR
 CROP FOR YEAR

HONOLULU, Dec Il (by Associ- ated Press) ).-Estimate for the 1921 Hawaiian sugar crop indicate that the territory's output will be approxi- mately 31,O0O tons greater than the estimate for this year, and 1S,000 tons greater than the actual output for the season now drawing to a close. Official estimates of the Su- gar Factors Limited indicate a crop of 4SS,00O tons for that concern in 1921, and S5,O00 tons of other raw sugar in the islands during tn same period, making the total estimated output for the territory 573,000 tons.
 This years estimate of 542,000 tons, made year ago, has been ex- ceeded 12,000 tons by the actual 1920 output, according to sugar officials. Of the 552,000 tons produced in 1920 537 900 tons have been shipped. The remaining stock on hand will be transported as soon as shipping fla cilities permit.

Dr. V0n Zesch Appointed
 Member Dental Board

Are women making good in the bus mess and professional world?
 Yes!
 Laurels that have hitherto been mans sole prerogative, are now with frequence and precision falling into the laps of women.
 A striking case in point is that of our fellow townswoman, Dr. von zesch who has the distinction of be- ing appointed by Gov. Riggs on Oc- tober H. as one of the five members of the territorial board of dental ex- aminers. It is said that the doctor is the only woman to whom has ever been rendered an appointment on any dental board, the importance of which fact is more readily comprehended when one bears in mind that there is board of dental examiners in every state and territory of the union.
 Dr. von Zesch is native of Texas, having been born on her grandfather's estate, Leon Springs, at San Antonio This estate was an officers training camp during the late war, having passed from her families hands some time ago after almost one hundred years of possession.
 At an early age Dr. von Zesch graduated from San Francisco high Sohnn1 lott Lo oe Physicians and Surgeons of that city She is a holder of licenses in Cali fornia, Texas, Arizona and Alaska and is an Alumnus of the Northwestern University of Chicago
 In 1906 Dr. von Zesch was appoint ed acting U. s. army dental surgeon, with rank and pay of a lieutenant, to take charge of the dental work for the refugees of the earthquake and fire at San Francisco.
 This office marked the beginning of the doctors unique career she being the only woman who has ever held a commission as U. S. army officer The average man grins when women and politics are mentioned but those grins have been known to take wing This interesting phenomenon was clearly demonstrated by Dr. von Zesch, at the time when the U. S. army retired in favor of the relief cor poration during the rehabilitation days in San Francisco.
 When the civil authorities took charge, politics entered into the game, and the arch politician of

There seems to be good supply OF
labor just now and men are reported
as coming to the mine offices looking
for jobs quite freely There are a
number OF new faces seen about the
locations weekly showing that the
men who left here are slowly altering
back and that. while there is going to
be very close shave on labor. yer
the supply will be fairly good.
II is a time when operators must
look closely 10 the working conditions
so as to entice men to their proper

have recognized this and are supply
ing everything possible to make life
at the mines agreeable.

SOUND FOREST POLICY

A Washington farmer asks that a
million Japanese be let into the
country to clear logged-off land. The
land is useless as 1t is for farming.
But Is not Its real use to grow more
forest material? To replant this
land to trees is the national use for
which 1t should pe employed. Prt-
vate owners. state and federal forest
bureaus, and lumber industries
should unite to reforest these lands.

lands would affect water supply and
