Uncle Samuel
By James J. Montague,

By James J. Montague, He doesn't so round with a chip on
 his shoulder, Hunting excuses to fight any more; He's getting a little bit wiser and
 older:-
 Fond of his comfort and weary ot war. He isn't as boasttul, he isn't so breezy,
 Nor half so convinced he cannot be wrong, He's got in the habit of taking things easy,--
 For old Uncle Samuel is getting along. The pastime of setting the eagle to screaming Is almost forgotten; He takes more delight In sitting around In the twilight and dreaming, Somehow assured that the world is all righ.. He isn't so quickly aroused to resent ment
 Nor nearly so eager to reach for his gun, The thing that he hankers for most, is contentment And time to reflect on the things he has done He knows he has wealth and an en- vied position Enough for an old man to ask for forsooth. What need then for nursing the rest less ambition That stirred in his breast in the days of his youth? What need as he muses with self sat isfaction, On the place he has filled upon history's page For the bOyish craving Tor tuFmoll and action? Far better the leisure of restful old age. He IS getting along, for he dwells on the glory, He fought for and won in the br9ya days 0F old He lives upon dreams going back through the story That. somehow, he tancies is ready told. And yet. if the war clouds should gather about him, If ever his country by foes be be set. He'll rouse from his dreamiug,-the old man. God love him; Win suddenly find there is fight in him yet. -Vaucouyer Daily world.

ALASKA WILL OUTDO
 CALIFORNIA IN OIL

In an article published in recent issue of the San Francisco Examiner, Miss EstelIe Lawton,a special writer, has the following to say In regard to Alaska
 Will Alaska outdo California as an oil center?
 Albert F. Traser, for IT years a resident of Alaska, ard just now a visitor in Los Angeles, predicts that she will. Fraser Is in the freight de. partment Of the government railroad, and he has through his work an un- usual opportunity to know of the re- sources of the great territory
 His enthusiasm has the vigoT of the far north. When speaking of AL aska he is almost scornful of our boasted climate, aud if by chance you happen to meRtion-the extreme cold of Alaska MT Fraser just snorts and advises you to inform yourself on the facts of physical geography.
 Don't you know that every harbOr in Alaska from KetChikan to Dutch HarbOr is open all year?" he demand ed. Our climate is no severer than that of Boston or any New England state. True. our summers are short but they are glorious, with fruits and flowers, every kind of vegetable that anyone could desire.
 "The recent completion of the gov. ernmeut railroad has opened a mary elous scenic route and the service is excellent.
 During the gold rush everybody was talking about Alaska; now all the world remembers Is that We used to be on the map.
 "If people but knew 1t we are the great natural sanitarIum of the west ern continent. You see no pale people in Alaska, no anemic ones. Weak lings who come to our country get strong. Even the mosquitoes are harmless. though ca-nivcrous. There are no germs to poison their backs We are on the way to oil development that will furnish potential death to every mosquito on the continent.
 Several big companies are now drill ing inside the Arctic circle and the indications are excellent I'll bet that within the next few years we shall witness an oil rush to Alaska that will exceed in interest and excite ment the gold rush of the sos.
 The government makes it possible for anyone honestly wishing to begin development to drill on 25OO acres of land. Now between Cook Inlet and Bristol Bay the ground is staked for miles True, the ground is always frozen a few feet below the surface, put that helps rather than flinders oil drilling.
 And when 1t comes to natural wonders, where can you find the like of the Valley of the Ten Thousand Smokes?" That Is believed by most people to be inaccessible.
 Tt is not. Anybong who cared to take his own food and bedding may reach the valley in a three-day trip from the end of the boat line. It con- tains the largest active volcano in the world and colors that make the Grand canyon look pale and uninter- esting. As a potential tourist cam ping ground Alaska cant be beat All We need is adequate hotels, and there you have an opening for some euterprising capitalist.
 "A prophet may be without honor in his own country, but a country seems to be without honor among its own sons. I've seen California and I've seen Alaska, and I tell you that Alaska has more opportunities, more beauty and a better climate than your bOasted California That's why I live there I love ft."
