There will be regret over the

panies have 1t in their power to
make up for this to q large extent
by closer cooperation with Ameri-

have shown a strong inclination
to favor the American flag.
It would bC unjust and discrilain-
story wholly to deny the compensa-
tion provided for freighters to the
ships owned by the Standard Oil,
United States Steel and other in.
dustrial corporations. However.
ships of these great fleets will re-

course Of the years is a consider.
able one.
Those foes Of American shipping
legislation who describe the bill as
having been rendered worthless by

present form. AS matter Of fact
the bill still offers substantial ad-
vantage to the American merchant
marine. The compensation, or sub

WILLIAM FARNUM AT
 PALACE IN SEA STORY

The sea always has peculiar charm, but when you know you are going to see William Farnum aboard a big ship you know you are in for several reels of excitement and re nance Farnum will be seen at the Palace Theater tonight, Saturday matinee and Saturday night, in a William Fox production called ''The Scuttlers." by Clyde C. Westover.
 "The Scuttlers" is replete with un- usual incidents and is said to have thrills enough to satisfy the most eager Farnum fan. When the scut- tiers begin their work Farnum is a prisoner in the hold of the ship. Then things happen that stir the blood. There are two typical Farnum fights, and the romance centers upon the mutual love of Farnum and the daughter of the ships captain Jackie Saunders, a most capable leading woman, plays opposite the star. Re ports from other points indicate a picture of smashing force.

If You Need a Medicine
 You Should Have the Best

Have you ever stopped to reason why it is that so many products hat are extensively advertised, all at once drop out of sight and are soon forgotten? The reason is plain the article did not fulfill the promises of the manufacturer. This applies more particularly to medi cine. A medicinal preparation that has real curative value almost sells itself, as like an endless chain sys- tenn the remedy is recommended by many of my customers testify. No those who have been benefited, to those who are in need of 1t.
 A prominent druggist says: Take ! for example, Dr. Kilmers Swamp | Root, a preparation 1 havesold for many years and never hesitate to recommend. for in almost every case 1t shows excellent results, as other kidney remedy has so large a sale"
 According to sworn statements and verified testimony of thousands who have used the preparation, the success of Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root is due to the fact, so many people claim, that it fulfills almost every wish in overcoming kidney, liver and bladder ailments, corrects ur- mary troubles and neutralizes the uric acid which causes rheumatism
 You may have a sample size bot tie of this always reliable prepara- tion by parcel post, also pamphlet telling about it. Address Dr. Kill mer & Co.,, Binghamton, N. r., and enclose ten cents, also mention the Alaska Daily Empire, Juneau. Alas ka. Advertisements

"TiLliE'S PUNCTURED
 ROMANCE" AT COLISEUM

When Charlie Chaplin and Marie Dresslor made their debut in society no detail of luxuriousness was lack ing, in that side-splitting Mack Sen nett masterpiece of comedy, "Tillie's Punctured Romance" which is at the Coliseum tonight and matinee tomor- row.
 To inherit three million dollars just as things look their blackest is sufficient provocation for causing an even more domesticated and country bred maiden to forgot her parlor manners. Which perhaps accounts for her lack of ball room etiquette.
 Charlie and Tillie give their first grand ball to the moneyed magnates of their realm. But they give much more than a mere ball. and one of the many extras" is dance by the host and hostess themselves How can anyone explain the kind of dance executed by the inimita ble Charlie Chaplin and the agile bulk of Marie Dresslcr.
 After the ball comes a blow for the married pair, and then their troubles begin in earnest The luxurious fur nishings of the millionaire's mansion are little needed in the precipitous flight of the bewildcred guests. All raappearance of Tillie's uncle. and their domestic peace is shattered.

ADDRESS MADE TO HIGH SCHOOL
 BY HENDERSON
Advises Students in Daily Conduct Discusses Pro-
 posed School Meet.


 Llst Thursday and Friday Mr. L.
 D. Henderson, Commissioner of Edu
 cation. visited all departments of the
 Juneau schools. He was well pleased , with the work of the students and teachers. We hope he will be even better pleased on his next visit, and as this is the beginning of a new semester we have more opportuni- ties to earn his approval.
 Friday afternoon Mir Henderson spoke to the High School about the value of planned school work He the Yukon. Before starting, they re. c2ived a good deal of advice, given by those who had made the trip be- fore. For a while the advice was followed. But gradually the scenery !! along the banks attracted their at they found they were not progressing very fast. It was also necessary, in order 10 reach their destination in good time to keep in the general current and not go over to one side as the current was not strong there and they could not make much head way.
 Then there were the obstacles. In one place a huge rock stuck out a considerable distance into the river and as the water rushed past it, il made a tremendous noise, which could be heard a mile or two up the r.ver This would have frightened them had not they been warned about it before and when they got to the place all that had to be done and they were safe. This trip showed to us how important it is to take the good advice of friends or teachers and not let the sidelines take up too much of our time. It also showed how much greater obstacles are at distance than whom we get up to them.
 Another thing Mr. Henderson spoke about was the conduct cf the stud cats outside of school. It is then that the public gains their impres- slons of che nature of the school and we do not wish anyone to fain false Impressions. Ha.
 MT. Henderson also mentioned the coming school meet in which the diff fcrent schools of Alaska will com etc Thero will be contests of all kinds, including debating The de- tailed plans will be given later. The g.udelts were very much interested.

EDITORIAL

In a recent talk given by Com missioner Of Education L. D. Hen derson to the Juneau High School student body, the fact that the con duct of students outside the school be gditable and proper was empha sized It is well for all of us to take this very seriously because our actions outside, although seemingly innocent, may give false impressions and create an opinion of which we would be ashamed if we were to hear ot it.
 The conduct of boys and girls in school may be very estimable, but street corners and stand talking and taking up room which other people need, and at night go to the moving picture theater and enjoy themselves 5 by being noisy and causing disturb ances and discomfort to the other people, it shows they have not much respect for the public and do not realize what the results will be. Pub lie privileges such as the library are often abused in just this way. while people wonder where the training of students comes in.
 Furthermore, it is not only our own reputation which we injurc, but that of our school. The teachers do their very best to have classrooms appear orderly and quiet, and show us the value of good conduct. They have us all work together for the common good in school, so why shouldn't we do the same outside? It is very evi- dent that we can get nowhere in our struggle for knowledge unless we do all work together. Just so in other things of life, we are only taking that much longer to accomplish our task in life, and hindering others from doing so
 It may be seen, then, that the public judges our school largely by our words and deeds outside of school. By keeping this constantly in mind we should endeavor to make it our first duty to ourselves and our school to so deport ourselves everywhere as to reflect only credit and praise on dear old Juneau High School

"A SMALL TOWN IDOL" CLASSIC OF THE STICKS

The opening scenes of Mack Sen nctts siX-rccl supcr-cOmedy, "A Small Town Idcl." are set in that kind of l town where the railroad track and 2 struggling stream provide the sun burnt inhabitants with their only ideas of motion. This opens at the Palace Sunday matinee for two days.
 Ben TurDin is the hero; Jimmy FinlaysOr is the villain; charming Phyllis Havcr is the country maid and shares heroine honOrs with Marie Provost, who is seen in later episodes when the plot shifts to a city where in Turpin, unjustly accused at home, takes refuge and becomes associated with the piquant Marie in a thrilling she is the feminine principal and he is the puissant hero in chaps.
 On the fame of this film Ben re- turns in triumph to his village home. But things have moved rapidly there during his absence The lovely maid is about to be condemned to matri- mony with the wicked villain and a scandal of tremendous consequence has broken out in the village church. Charley Murray, the constable, is hardly able to quell the riotous de pertinent of the citizens, and Turpin is. by a sequence of strange acci- dents. nearly lynched-not for his acting, but for his glibness with his gun Of course everything reaches the sea of tranquility like the strag- eling stream, and "finis" is a fade out with wedding bells celebrating he most novel and picturesque story that Mack Sennctt has yet given to the screen
