To Our Readers

No person is in a better posi-
ton to know the attitude of
the business concerns of a
community than the one who
solicits the advertisements
and comes in personal contact
with the heads of the bust
ness concern.
When the advertisement Of a
business firm is carried in the
Tribune, it not only serves
as an announcement of the
special prices or the line of
goods handled by that con-
Germ, but it is a Direct Invi-
tation to members of the race
to patronize the business
place; further, it is assurance
of fair and courteous treat
ment.

AT COLD BAY MEANS MUCH TO ALL
 PARTS OF ALASKA

Not since the discovery of the first bonanza placers in Alaska has there been anything of more importance to the Territory transpiring than the movement of the big oil producing companies into the oil districts of the Alaska Peninsula, is the belief of Col, J. c. Gotwals, Acting Presi- dent of the Alaska Road Commis- sion. "It would be difficult to mag nifty or over-emphasize the signifi- canoe of the fact that the Standard Oil and Associated Oil companies are on the ground with drilling compliment and that other companies of similar nature are waiting for the results of prospecting before entering the same field," declared Colonel Gotwals.
 Colonel Gotwals is planning to make a hurried trip to Kanatak in the near future to look over the new camp springing up there on the shores of Portage Bay and to offer to extend any assistance to the pros pectors that may aid them in sue cessfully carrying out their program, for winter operation The charac- ter of the country in which the field where drilling is to be carried on makes winter work very difficult, he said. and every possible natural obstacle should be guarded against
 The present venture involves mil lions of dollars to be expended for the building of roads, erection of camps, drilling. putting in pipe lines. construction of docks and wharves. The companies involved in it have shipped tractors for trans porting supplies, houses for quarters for their. employees, radio equipment to establish a sytem of constant communication. If successful, 1t means the opening Of section Of the Territory heretofore barren of industry and population, said Col onel Gotwals.
 It is of such magnitude as to jus tify the Commission in doing what ever it can to aid the undertaking, and it is for the purpose of offer ing this aid that Colonel Gotwals ex- poets to make the trip.-Juneau Empire.

TRADERS
 LOSE IN SIBERIA

Last year the schooner Polsr Bear was caught by spring freshets and beached on the flats of Kolyma riv- CT. James Castelle was sent north in the Belinda to launch the beached boat and bring her to Nome this season.
 Arriving at the Kolyma river he proceeded to launch her by hauling the vessel out on the ice and ex- pected that when the ice broke up in the spring the vessel would be ready for her return trip. Fate, however, decreed otherwise When the ice broke up the boat was let into the water, but storms arose and the ice crushed her to pieces. Castelle then returned to the Be linda and continued his trading ven ture. E
 A member of the Belinda left the vessel and was seen at Chaun Bay where he told the story of both the Polar Bear and the Belinda. When he left the Belinda that boat was without fuel oil and was caught in the ice some thirty miles west of Cape North. zs># a-t .ef
 The Belinda was boarded by the White Russians who took over the entire outfit. When first approached by the Russians they attempted to levy tax of 10 Der cent upon all goods entering the country and a like tax on all stuffs taken from the country. Conditions were such that Castelle decided to let the Russians take over the boat while he retained the furs acquired by him. After the change had taken place he pur- posed to leave the Belinda, freight his skins to East Cape and if possible make connections for Nome. It is not known whether he was success full. as nothing further has been learned concerning him or his boat.
 According to the report of, the crew member the Belinda was in complete control of the White Rus sians and Castelle was merely a passenger. Ice conditions were such that the report further states that the Belinda will likely suffer the same fate as the Polar Bear.
 About thirty five miles north ot Cape North the Chuckotsk was. met headed for Chaun bay, but decided to go no further The Blue Sea and the Silver Wave were also at this point, and their present whereabouts and condition is indeed a serious matter.-Nome Nugget

eoREoTRY MOVEMENT
GIVEN GREAT IMPETUS

Tho contract entered into by the
Department Of Conservation and the
Great Southern Lumber Company,
setting aside $1,000 acres Of cut-over
land in Washington parish for refor-
estation, is a great forward move
ment In forestry, and q distinct tri-
umph for the policy adopted years
ago by Commissioner Alexander.
When that official entered into the
first contract of this kind with the
Urania Lumber Company in 1913, his
friends told him he was committing
political suicide, for the plan was Ger.
tain to arouse bitter opposition be-
cause It involved the fixed assess
ment Of the land for q long term OF
years. But Mr.. Alexander knew the
timber of the State could be renewed
under no other process. and he bold
ly took the action.
What followed is well known. The
reserve at Urania became q mecca
for forest conservationists through.
out the country, and the action Of
Louisiana, the first of the kind, was
generally endorsed by every section
of the United States. The opposi-
tion strong at first. passed away with
the years, and the contract with the
Great Southern not only aroused no
opposition, but went through without
q dissenting voice. The foresight OF
Commissioner Alexander had been
put to the test and found to be the
safe and sane policy for the State to
adopt The plan is equally beneficial
to the State at large and to the land
owners. Reforestation 10 absolutely
necessary II the people Of the State
are not to be left at the mercy Of
lumbermen at far distant points for
their building material. and to exces-
sfvs freight charges from the States
Of Washington and Oregon. The land
owners cannot afford to wait without
revenue for a crop for from fifteen
to forty years II taxes are to be ele-
waited with the annual growth of tim

vided he is made of the right stuff
and can produce satisfactory results.
What l mean by that Is, if fellow
wants to make his future bright and
put himself in a position for life
that will at all times enable him to
look his fellow man square in the
eve and at the same time give him
a fair return for his efforts and
ability, 60 into the Navy and see
what you are made Of. That is a
sure way to find out your value, as
in the Navy to-day men are square,
honest and upright in al their deal
ings. The schools are Of the finest
and are in charge of commissioned
officers, who after years of hard
study and application are well fitted
for this duty. They are usually grad
yates of the Naval Academy.
Every man that enters the Navy
today has the opportunity, provided
he has q high school education or
it's equivalent, to attend the Aead-
emy at Annapolis and take the course
to become commissioned officer.
That alone is chance that is worth
more than money can buy.
Choice Of many trades can be had
if q man desires to make good, and
along with the travel and experience
that comes with this training is the
lev of satisfaction with clean, up
right young Americans.
One of the finest schools in this
country to-day is the School Of Aerial
Photography, located on the banks
of the Potomac River in Washington,
where a man may go as an appren-
tice seaman and come out as q first
class photographer in every way.
After two years practical experience
he may become an expert in his line
with q financial return Of $126.OO
per month and a splendid education.
Photography is one Of the modern
wonders, and the Government school
teaches it in all it's phases.
The most interesting part Of the
Navy course is Motion Picture Pho
Biography. A camera is installed in
the bow of one Of the giant sea-
planes and moving pictures are made
Of objects thousands Of feet below
with accuracy and detail as fine Al
can be produced in still picture.
After completing this course,
was transferred to the U. S. s
SHAwMUT, flag snip Of the At.
lantic Air Squadron where fifteen
giant seaplanes guard the fleet and
remain with it at all times. During
my trip with the fleet as Chief Pho
tographer, many cities were visited
as well as official photos made al
over the country.

Aviation Units he is given bonus
Of 500 Of his pay which brings it
to about $4,000. Thanks to the
work of the Navy Department and
Congress, the new base pay is very
satisfactory and will not be changed,
unless it is to the benefit of the
officers and men.
Life in the Navy is absolutely what
man wants to make it; it is up to
him. Of course it is not a path of
roses, as there are hard knocks and
times that a man is called upon to

LOUISIANA RESOURCES
ARE FOR lOUleIANlANo

Some days ago Commissioner Alex
ander Of the Department Of Conser.
vation, was In Baton Rouge in con-
ference with Gov. Parker on the mat
ter Of conservation. The question
Immediately under discussion was
the situation pertaining to the use Of
natural gas IN the State and a broad.
er distribution Of this product to the
people. Coy. Parker since his inaug-
uration has put forth every effort to
interest capital in the building Of
pipe lines to distribute the natural
gas from the Monroe fields to New
Orleans and other points. With this
In view, by his direction the Depart
ment Of Conservation made . thor.
ough survey Of the situation, and 1t
was clearly demonstrated that the
plan was entirely feasible and practi-
cal TO pipe gas to New Orleans at q
cost which would Justify the building
Of the line.
Both the Governor and the Commits
sioner are now much concerned over
the published statements recently
that Q Combination was being form
ed by capitalists with large holdings
in the Monroe gas fields with the
avowed purpose OF taking gas from
that field to Texas points, leaving
the distribution at New Orleans and
other cities Of Louisiana entirely
out Of the question" Commissioner
Alexander declares it win BE- the pol
icy Of his department to fight any
movements to distribute gas outside
of Louisiana from Louisiana fields
