A BIG UNDERTAKING

On Sunday, November ~, the Red
Cross will endeavor to canvass every
home in Hartford County in its annual
roll call for members. To accomplish
this feat a force of 500 canvassers
must be enrolled and the different
branches are busily engaged in secur-
ing these workers. The plan Is to
have one canvasser for every ten
homes, SO that the only thing neces-
sary 10 the full success of the UNDER
stsking is the securing Of a sufficient

NOT THE TIME FOR STAMPEDING.

Maricn Goldstcn, just returned from Cold Bay, ad- vises people not the oil fields there unless they know what they going fer He there is no demand there for people at this time.
 MT Goldstcin's warning is timely. There is no than there are men do it, and who goes there should have the funds with him for return trip
 Oil prospecting does provide large payrols, nor. for that matter does oil development It will take time to prospect the country and it would be far better for all concerned if the development should be orderly and that the country should not be populated "Stampeders' rarely get anything out of stampedes except hard experience
 This warning, of course would not apply to pros situation and have enough money with which to get out of the country after they have it and something to come back to if the verdict should be against a permanent residence there
 These good times for the with job to stay with 1t unless he is of the next step. This applies particularly to those fortunately situated the people Southeastern Alaska. This section of the universe is prosperous and living conditions are good. The situation is much too satisfactory to quit 1t to take leap into the dark.
 The time may when the situation in the when it comes It will be far better for the Cold Bay region to permit it to with the needs of the country until the situation becomes settled and the demand for working people certain than it is at the present time The present it time for stampeding anywhere, and MT Godstein says it specially is not the time for rush to Cold Bay.

 Our guess is that the fellow who marries girl who rolls her own is gonna have to get his own--break- lasts.
 Before he marries her a men is perfectly willing to neglect his Lusi- ness for her, but afterwards the only thing for which he will neglect his business is golf.
 contemporary published an arti. cle telling girls how to make d man propose. This should be follow ed by articles telling fish how to swim. birds how to sing and the sun how to shine.
 woman just loves to change the furniture around, but we understand she does not love to hear the lam guage her husband uses when he stumbles over the newly arranged stuff in the dark.

Railroad Towns Standing on Own Feet.
(Nenana News.


 It is indeed gratifying The News to learn from recent arriy as from Coast that business conditions in Anchorage have not been impaired by the estab- lishment of through service the Alaska Railroad to know that judgment of those responsible for the founding of Anchorage is being proven sound
 It is the natural thing for towns to spring up along the line of railroad in country and, in view of the fact that the Government re- served all of the land along the railroad right of way in Alaska before commencing railroad struction the natural and proper thing for the Alaskan Engineering Commission to designate where town building should start.
 It was not to be expected and it not pected by investors in townsite property that the Government would continue beyond the period of con- Gtruction contribute directly to the support of the towns created by it's road building organization, but it was natural that investors should place reliance lin judgment of those entrusted with the respon sibility of founding towns; and it is gratifying now to find that the oldest of the towns is able to stand Ion it's own feet and undisturbed by the withdrawal of bolsterng influences. Business is good in An chorage declare those who know. The community is well organized for the advancement of the general welfare and the Government dollars dwndle in number sources of cultivated to take their place Anchorage is learning to be selfreliant and is making a good job of it.
 Nenana, and the other towns established by the Alaskan Engineering Commission, also must learn to be self-reliant and it is to be hoped that time will prove the wisdom of their creation. The News believes sufficient business be created to insure prosperity for all the towns along the Alaska Rail- road and large volume of tonnage for the railroad; but each community must work for it's own advance men just as Anchorage is doing for no matter how advantage may be the location of town, full benefit be realized without effort. There must be unity of action aertness for opportunities and a constant reaching out for business,

 It might have brought other commodities had it chanced touch at points where consignments were waiting-copper canned salmon, gold in bars, dust and nuggets tin reindeer meat. timber coal grain, root vegetables, wood pup-the list could be extended indefinitely.
 There is disposition to assume that Alaska is a country rich only in minerals and of these minerals, rich particularly in gold Its gold resources enor- mous-more of the yellow metal, experts declare re- mains to be recovered than yet has been mined-but this is only of number of commodities which are being exported which would be exported if the ter ritory developed.
 In spite of dscouragements, Alaska does a business of $1OO 900, 900 per annum with the United States. If the Federal Government were to encourage development Canada encourages the opening up to settlement and use of virgin areas, that trade would be five times ten times what it is now.

 For nearly 900 years Turkish and atrocities have harrassed the civzing influences of three tinents. extending in Europe times to Poland on the north, Spain the and the Ural mountains the east.
