NATIVE TELLS OF BEAR AND OTHER
 FLYING ANIMALS

FLYING ANIMALS
 One of the most interesting criti- cisms of brown bears received by Governor Riggs comes from Charles Klontech, the Indian game warden at Sitka. In his title. by "other fly ing animals" he refers to eagles, gulls and fur seals. It may be nec- essary to explain that thepe is a bag limit of three brown bears. His let ter is reproduced as written, as follows:
 Things the Bear and Other Flying
 Animals Doe
 1. (Bear) will tell what the AL aska Brown Bear doe. Bear was all right to men. Bear is pretty near ly like human bean he puts up fish for his winter use, this is why he stays in his den for 4 1-2 months with all his put up, also deer meat with fish. And when they come out of their den, then the bear is harm full and dangerous he looks for some birds to catch and also deer or men, anything comes in his way that will be his game. And this is why I don't want this 3 Bear to be killed, the Bear is plentiful.
 Now suppose there are 4 bear walking, what will the man doe shall he let the 4th Bear go? Or the 4th one to eat him up? It is im- possible to do that because if you give him a chance that animal is going to get you If you do not hill him, therefor you cannot tet the 4th one go.
 We'll Gentlemen have under stood how the law is written about the game. as it says every hunter should kill 3 bear in season. I will ask you whether you value a humans life OF the bears, do not value dangerous animals life like 1 do humans life, l am talking about this bear, because the law is written that person should net be killed, and see, how much nurve this beay hase to disobey the law of the United States, l look at it this way, that the bear is disobey- ing the law SO the only salvation will Dc foV the people is to kill off all the BeaS in a country. that will bea great releaf foT every hunter and also will be good for che proS- pectoFs.
 do not understand that bear could kill person, there is a boy got torn up by the bear, this fall, you just ask him, and how he got hurt, he will tell you all of it, 80 there is a witness here in Sltka when the boy was in dangerous his name is MT. HIP Bailey, so Gentle- men there is more bad about beaY than good SO wish that the law will strongly look into this matter of bear, so this will be all about the bear a while.

G. w. Chaalham, superintendent for the Bureau of Public Roads in Alaska, arrived from Ketchikan on the Taku and Is acquainting him. self with conditions here which af- feet his department. In company with Road Foreman T. H. Evans he made a tsip to the site of the bridge across Salmon river near the mouth of Texas creek and was pleasurably surprised by the small amount of snow on the ground as compared with a corresponding date last year
 No road appropriations were made by the last session of Con- gress, said MT. Chea than, but suf- ficient funds remain from the old appropriation to complete the work here already laid out and give the Salmon valley the transportation facilities so urgently needed. The bridge at Texas creek will be rush. ed to completion, a full crew being employed at present putting in the center pier, which must be placed before the river rises. A prema- ture breakup delayed operations for a day or two, but the present frosty nights have checked the thaw and good progress is being made. With all the bridge mater ial on the ground, the structure should be completed within 30 days and the task of finishing the road started last summer will then be undertaken.
 It is proposed to give the surface a good coating of gfavel, keeping up with the grader as it forms the roadbed. Experience last fall dem- onstrated the futility of gfading any faster than the eVaveling can be done, as tins hsaty hauling to

The Disappearing Family Dinner.

The Disappearing Family Dinner.
American leisure is driving the good
old dinner from American homes The
gap is ever widening beween the group
that believe that the home Is the basis
OF America and make the fireside the
keystone of life, and the other group
that look on the home as place to be
avoided except at roosting time.
Twenty years ago when father had
finished an honest days work he went
home. Mother and the children were
at the door to meet him. and the cir
Gle was one that got fhe fundamen-
tails OF life. Each had some work to
do in keeping the home up. The Ma
ton was built by fathers, mothers,
sons and daughters OF such.
Then came the automobile. movies.
jazz, auction bridge. and what not.
They have affected and continue 10
affect the American home. Where II
all will lead, who can foreteil?
Father comes home now early in the
afternoon. Mother is at the door. but
not with the idea OF home. She has her
finery on and is waiting for father to
motor out TO the golf links for a game.
The family fireside no longer calls.
One can dine in a country roadhcuse
or at the club. The children will get
along all right. They or the maid can
shake supper out of tin can in less
time than II takes TO tell. The kids
will then be OF for the neighborhood
movie house.
Motoring takes one to the cool spots
and the fine outdoors. Golf is an ex-
cellent exercise. The movies have their
uplift. Dancing Is pleasant pastime.
Play OF any kind is good. so long as
II is balanced with work and is not
overdone. But regardless of that.
home is still the keystone OF the Ma
ton.
Rural America still has its family
dinners. But in the larger communi-
ties where the number who are burn
ing the candle at both ends is ever
growing. the fundamentals OF life are
being lost sight OF in the chase for
the pleasure at the end OF the rain
