Daily The Falcon gets REQUESTS t,

Daily The Falcon gets requests to
publish announcements about drives to
raise money for this purpose and for
another, but we are not needing many
such requests this year, for the reason
that we believe our people have had
drives enough for the present. The
F icon and its editor would be willing
to join with others in pledging ourselves
not TO ask a penny during 1921 for
these drives and not to contribute one.
We have had numerous words of ap-
prevail to staten ent similar to this
that appeared in these columes the first
issue in January. We will all do we'll
if we keep ourselves and ours together
this year, without giving to all these
causes we have been giving to, regard
less of how worthy they may be.

HUNDRED FIFTY MISSING
FROM STEAMER ALASKA

Wrecked on Blunt's Reef
South of Eureka, Calf.

Eureka, Cal, Aug. S.---Although
all eyes We're turned to the mourn
full beach, where the passenger
steamer Alaska was grounded Satur-
day might. no bodies of the missing.
estimated at 1853, had washed up on
the sand today. The coast guard cut
ter, patrolhlng the tragic waters OFF
Blunt's reef. had discovered none OF
the dead whose lives the water had
apparently claimed OF the seventee
bodies lying in the morgue only nine
have been identified.
Official investigation into the
wrec'. was started today. The spot
where the Alaska lies inside of
Blunt's reef should have been missed
by miles by the vessel had it been
properly navigated.
True to traction of the sea. Cap
tain Harry Hovey went down with
the ship. The treacherous waters OF
the reef ripped open the bottom of
the vessel.
All survivors saved by the AnyoN
and brought to the short We're in a
most pitiable condition. Nearly all
were drenched with fuel oil from the
bursting of the vessels tanks.
Speeding between coastwise vessels
is blamed in marine circles for the
Alaska disaster. as we'll as for most
of the other wrecks which have
strewn the reef and beaches of the
Pacific during the last 20 years.

IMPROVEMENT SHOWN IN
GENERAL LUMBER MARKET

The weekly lumber market review
from the American Lumberman, Chi
cago, shows that on the whole the
market trend has shown Improve
ment. Not only has the volume Of
inquiry increased considerably but
the volume of sales has increased and
the character Of the business is more
varies Orders have been placed for
considerable car material and rail-
road timbers and at the same time
the volume of purchases of yard stock
by retail lumbermen has shown an
increase. In the southern pine and
Douglas fir regions a considerable
shortage of staple yard stock is de-
veloping, as a number of the mills
are dversOld.
Purchasers, particularly retailers,
are not plading orders until the stock
is badly needed. This situation is
emphasized by the number of wires
received by sellers from customers
asking after orders recently placed
and how soon shipments may be
made. In the south, particularly,
many of the producers are short OF
flooring, ceiling, siding and finish.
Some manufacturers are also Oversold
on certain items of dimension.
Production continues slack for this
season of the year, and is just about
equal to the volume of shipments.
Prices are somewhat frmer and it is
not easy to obtain concessions as it
was a week or ten days ago.

BEMIDJI NAVAL UNIT
ENJOYS LAKE CRUISE

According to word recaived from
the, Bemidji Naval unit on board the
U. S. S. Essex, the boys are having
big time, and are enjoying the
Pageant 'of Progress being held at
Chicago, although the cit itself is
nothing much" The Essex is the
guard ship of the fleet.
The ''gobs' are showing up well in
comparison with the other ships, espe-
cially in signaling. The signal divi-
sion Of the Essex has them all beaten,
and the boys on the Essex even adj
NIT it. They say that the division
is made up mostly of Bemidji boys,
and of course that is why the Benhidji
boys admit it is good. They are en-
joying boat races and; say that they
are becoming quite "salty' although
they have been on fresh water ever
since leaving Duluth.
Shore leave in Chicago apparently
appeals to the boys and they are TAX
ing lit as often as allowed. AS far
as can be ascertained they are all
in the best of health and are enjoying
every minute Of their cruise.
