Mushers Have Exciting Time When Chatanika River
 Ice Breaks

FAIRBANKS, April 5.--Fairbanks ans find little comfort iu the an nouncement of railroad plans made by Col. Mears during his brief visit here. The Panama river bridge was included in the estimates presented to congress when funds for the com pletion of the railroad were sought more than a year ago and 1t was thought the s17,000,0oO authorization included the money to build the bridge. It now develops, however. that Col Mears contemples complet. ing the railroad to Nenana before giving further thought to the Panama river structure. which will mean a delay of at least another year, and to do the work then will require a special act of congress, which may mean much additional delay.
 MT. and Mrs. Al Raymond, who arrived from the Circle hot springs several adys ago, in company with Leo Rogge and H. I. Miller, had an exciting experience on the Chatanika river, as the result of breaking through the ice near fl Crossing. The water, which lay on top of the main ice, was about three feet deep, and it was necessary for the men to break a channel through the top ice in order to get Mrs, Raymond and the sleds to the bank of the stream The entire party, including Mail Carrier John Palm, receiving a drenching, but luckily the day was warm and dry blankets and clothing available

Obesity Undesirable,

Are you fat? Be on your guard If
you are. Doctor JOslin of Boston has
gathered striking statistics that show
an undeniable association Of obesity
and diabetes, the condition in which
sugar, the most common of food fuels,
is not properly metabolized or stored
in the body. There are In this country
alone more than half a million dia-
betics. "The penalty of taking too
much alcohol is well known, and a
drunkard is looked upon with pity or
contempt" says Doctor Joslin. Rare
ly, persons who become fat deserve
pity, because of real tendency to put
on weight despite moderate eating, but
most Of them should be placed in some
what the same category as the alco-
holic. In 900 cases out of 1000 be-
ing fat implies too much food or too
little exercise, or both combined."-
