TO MAP ALASKAN LOST LAKES.


 The Forest Service plans to locate,F and photograph many undiscovered lakes in the National Forests of Alaska by seaplane, flying from Ketchikan as base. Many of these lakes may be sources of valuable water power
 It has long been known that there are many lakes on the headlands and islands traversed by the inside passage between Seattle and Skag- way that do not appear on any map. During the New York-Nome flight made by Army avaitors, lakes were frequently sighted which could not be found on the latest and most authentic maps of the Territory. Tales of Host" or unknown water bodies are constantly being brought in by trappers and prospectors. Less than year ago lake four and a half miles long and one-half mile wide was discovered at the head of Short Bay. This lake has over 1000 acres of surface area and is less than one and one-fourth miles from tidewater, yet because of the surrounding country's rough topo- graphy has remained unknown and unnamed. A few days flight, it is said, will be sufficient to cover the area with a degree of accuracy that would require many years and great expense to accomplish by ordinary methods. The work has been ap-,l proved by the Federal Power Com mission.

THE MAN HE NEEDED

A steamboat was stranded ill the river, and the captain could not get her off. Eventually a hard-looking fellow came on board and said:
 Captain, understand you want a pilot?"
 The captain asked, Are you a pilot?"
 "Well, they call me one"
 Do you know where the sandbanks are?"
 'No, sir"
 "Well, how do you expect to take me out of here if you don know where they are?"
 q know where they ain't," was the reply.-Good Hardware.

PRINCE OF WALES SEEKS
 ADVICE OF LLOYD GEORGE

LONDON, Aug. Il. - David Lloyd George, England's Prime Minister, has many tough nuts to crack, but few people realize that he acts as adviser to the youthful Prince of Wales.
 The Prime Minister, and the Prince are chums. The Prime Minister looks upon the Prince as wholesome young friend and treats him as such, and those who are close to Buckingham Palace. say that the democratic man. her which the Prime Minister adopts toward the Prince has made him the closest friend the Prince has.
 Lloyd George doesn't treat the Prince like Prince, and this youth ful heir to the throne appreciates and delights in conversing with the Pre- mier as man to man.
 The Prince has many problems of his own, and it is generally understood that when he wants advice on his diff faculties he goes to the Prime Minis ter and gets his views-views which are little broader perhaps than those which he could secure in the close confines of the royal circle.
 The Prince, it is reported, has even taken some of his affairs of the heart to the Prime Minister for solution.
 ENGAGEMENT EXPECTED
 Prior to the return of the Prince from his Asiatic tour there were very well-founded reports that his engage ment would be announced shortly after his arrival. The names of at least two popular English women of nobility were mentioned frequently, and all England was waiting for the formal announcement
 The Prince came home, but no en- gagement was announced. It is known that members of the royal fam fly feel that the time for the marriage or lIG IIlICG IS at ietIltl. u llStO S'S Si+ been rumored that efforts have been made to hasten the Prince in his SC lection of a bride, and there are un- founded reports that some persons high in royal circles have gone so far as to actually propose certain alli- ances to the Prince.
 The Prince is a youth who makes up his own mind, who has a will of his own, and there is little doubt but what he will insist upon the right of choosing his own wife, despite any pressure that may be brought to bear upon him.
 The Prince has been a frequent wis itor at Downing Street since his re- turn from Japan, and he has had numerous conferences with his "pal," the Prime Minister, and popular re- port has it that there has been a good deal of sound fatherly advice handed out at No. 10 Downing Street relative to royal affaires de occur

French profiteers insist upon getting their commission out of any recon struction work.
 Germany will be given her opportun- ity to work out her debt. But the French will not permit the Germans to rebuild Northern France. Districts far removed from cities and where as few French live as possible will be selected. German industrial cities will be built on the Rhone, where Ger mans will build large dams and in stall hydro-electric equipment.
 EVERYTHING TO BE GERMAN
 In these German colonies to be installed in the heart of France every thing will be German except the French engineers who will supervise the work. German workers must leave their families in the Vaterland, and the laborers will be housed in temporary wooden barracks, many of which served to shelter American troops during the war
 The labor regulations will all be German. The laborers will be paid in German marks, with small supple ment in francs to be bought by the contractors. Discipline will be up to the Germans to manage.
 Five large construction enterprises have been approved by the French laborers will be exclusively German. In all five, however, the German gov ernment will be compelled by the material from French firms.

OPEN WATER MAKES
MAIL CARRYING
EASIER ON LAKES

Michigan City, Mich.-After a
winter of unusual hardship, due to
ice conditions, mail carriers who keep
residents Of outlying islands in touch
with the outside" are beginning to
enjoy their long boat trips in the
straits or Nlakes.
After months Of pushing their
boats through .slush ice or dragging
them like sleds over ice none too firm,
the representatives of the postoffice
department declare it is a real pleas
ure to head their small crafts into
ope water again. p
Although his exploits are little
known outside the northern Michigan
country, the lake mail carrier pre-
sents one Of the most romantic figures
In the country today. While workers
in other parts of the country are TAX
ing advantage of all the advancements
OF science and invention to aid them
in their work, the carriers are per.
forming their daily task just as it was
being carried out so years ago, fight
ing single handed against the forces
of nature.
Islands near the mainland receive
mail each day, where possible, while
those more remote are visited twice q
week. With the close Of navigation
the mail carrier becomes the chief
link in the lives Of the island folk
Win persons on the MAINLAND.
In the fall. before ice comes, the
carriers deliver their pouches by
means of gasoline launches. With the
coming of early winter the mail ar
rier is confronted with his hardest
task. of the year. A part of the dis
lance over his route is filed with
slush: and the remainder with solid
ice. He equips his rowboat with
runners, rows, through the slush, and
drags the craft when firm ice is en-
countered. Hours of hard toll often
are required to progress but a short
distance and only men accustomed to
sue houtdoor exertions are chosen for
the service.
In mid winter. when the ice be-
comes solid, over the entire route dog
or horse teams are employed in the
mail delivery. with the breakup in
the spring the boat with runners again
is brought into service. Later on the
carrier returns to- his gasoline launch,
whic his used until passenger steam
ers again appear and take over the
work. - iE ..
The mail carriers repeatedly risk
their lives each winter to carry mail
to those cut of from the mainland.
