entire production of natural gas is
lost because of bad pipe lines from
the point of production, said S. s.
Wyer, formerly connected with the
federal bureau of mines, in an ad-
dress to the convention of the natural
gas association of America.
The speaker scored this lack of
efficiency, which results in loss of
natural wealth that cannot be replac~
ed.
''If any other business or industry
in the country was as lax in this
respect" he said, "and allowed so
much waste of its chief commodity,
all of them would be in the bankrupt
cy courts within very few weeks"
Mr. Wyer declared that the only
thing that saved the gas companies
was the fact that they had what they
had believed for years to be an unlim-
tied supply, but in the future they
must pay more attention to conserva-

WOULD GIVE AWAY
ALASKA
Board Will Have This
Power if Bill Passes

Washington.-A bill introduced in
the house would create the Alaskan
development board, which would have
power to give away the natural re-
sources of that immense country. This
board would have control over the
national forests, water powers, bird
reservations, agricultural experiment
stations, fisheries, game and fur
bearing animals and the unreserved
public lands of territory more than
one-sixth of the total area of the
United States. The bill would evict
from Alaska the various departments
of government and set up form of
administration wholly different from
anything that exists in any state or
territory. Even the president could
not disturb the board except for neg
lect of duty and malfeasance in Of
flee, and the Only control congress
would have would be to withhold ap-
preparations or repeal the law Great
ing the board.
In opposing the bill Secretary of
Agriculture Wallace shows that if the
board refused to grant or renew any
application, entry, patent, lease, per-
nit, license or privilege in Alaska,
the applicant could appeal to the sec
retary of the interior, but if, on the
other hand, the board should grant
the application, that would end the
matter.
AS an indication of the untold
wealth that would be at the disposal
of this board, responsible only to
itself, Secretary Wallace shows that
there are 2O,OOO,000 acres of national
forests in Alaska, created between
1902 and 1908.

eral official, "the opportunity to ere

Winona Lake, Ind.-At a meeting

unanimous vote of approval was given

FIGHT STARTS
ON SMALLPOX
Health Office Will Begin Battle
on Old Enemy-Free Vaccine
Can be Secured at Health
Office During Campaign.

For somo years past our county Of
Tazewell has been subjected to All
annual visit of the much dreaded dis-
ease enemy Smallpox" Tho time is
now approaching when we may en-
pect' the re-appearancc of this most
unwelcome visitor. therefore, it be-
hooves us to start early to fortity
the homes and schools with thorough
vaccination.
The Virginia School Laws provide
that: every teacher and pupil shall,
within ten days from entering a pub
lie free school, furnish a certificate
from a reputable physician certify
been SUCCESSFULLY vaccinated or is ELI
culiar physical condition"
Owing to the fact that the schools
have been unusually busy with phys-
ical inspection and class organiza-
ton the Health Department has
postponed starting vaccination until
the second month of school, The
Health Officers will begin SYSTEM
attic inspection of all county schools
at an early date at which time it Is
| expected that all teachers and schoul
children who have not previously
been vaccinated, will take advantage
# the opportunity to be vaccinated
sree of charge.
Any teachers or parents of, schovl
children who. prefer that vaccination
be : done by their family physician
will kindly attend to the matter at
as early date as possible.
! 1t is hoped that very few exemp-
tions from vaccination will be found
necessary, however, in such cases
parents or teachers may secure the
blank exemption forms on applica-
1 tion to the Health Department and
then have them filled out by their
attending physician. All exemptions
will have a time limit as, for in
stance, some temporary ailment may
/ exempt person from vaccination
for n week, month or perhaps six
months but would not be good after
the expiration Of the period stated.
For the benefit of the county peu.
pie at large, free smallpox vaccina.
tion will be given at the Health or.
: flee every Saturday morning from /
to IL beginning November 9th ant
extending till further notice.
Smallpox may be completely ant
forever whipped out in Tazewel
county by complete vaccination ant
it is hoped that all citizens will TAX,
advantage of the opportunity ant
/, will cooperate absolutely.

and esteem, of our late Pesidenr,
colleague and friend. Mr.. Alexander
st. Clair, whose passing occurred OH
Friday afternoon, October 21st. SUBJ
nit the following:
Resolved that; Special montion
should be made Of the long and har-
monious relations existing between
him and his associates; and that for
more than twenty-seven years he
conscientiously, generously and ui,-
selfishly gave of his profound iudg-
ment, and proved his strong fidelity
to this institution.
1t is fully recognized that in tho
taking away of this most worthy
man, the family has sustained an ir-
reparable loss; being deprived Of a
wise counsellor, faithful husband;
considerate father, and truly lover
of home life; and this section has
lost one of its foremost Business men
one of unquestioned honesty and
strict integrity, and q faithful stew
ard of The Master.
This bank which he served with
such faithfulness owes its gratitude
for the loyal support he gave, recog.
nizing the strength that his inhu-
ence afforded, and deplores the loss
of his mature and unerring counsel,
sincerity, and frankness Of speech;
such as to merit the greatest admi-
ration and esteem at all times.
Mr.. Alexander St. Clair was mod
est man, never craving the plaudits
of his fellows; yet, when called upon
to serve, he had the courage and
ability to discharge every obligation.
His strength of character and mind,
humility of spirit, and Difference to
others, most beautifully served as an
aspiration for right living, and his
example is worthy of emulation.
Resolved further that: A copy of
these resolutions be given the fam
lily, and also copy be furnished tht
