Thus it is apparent that while the American shipyards in 1920 launched more than either the yards of the United Kingdom or all the other coun- tries. the lead of ,OO0 tons of America for 1920 transformed to a British lead of 531OOo tons last year. and the gap Of 1146 900 repre- senting Americas lead all other countries was converted into lead 790 900 tons for those coun- tries last year.
 For the first time since the war, the Register gives figures the production of German shipbuild- ing. These explain the increased output the ship yards of all other countries than the United States and Great Britain while the two latter declined The German production is given as 509O64 tons Without this output all other countries would have

outside and it is probable she will
 hereafter stay at home during the
 season of the snows. Mrs. Barrett S home at Mccarthy is one of the most
 picturesque in this part of Alaska.
 Visitors declare the scenery is almost as impressive as that of the Grand
 Canyon of the Colorado. Mccarthy is a coming city, Mrs. Barrett believes. Erstwhile it began to put on city airs, with it's electric power from Mother Lode and it's movie show at 75 cents | a head The house was always packed, notwithstanding the price, but since the Mother Lode was taken by the Kennecott Corporation the electric plant has not been available and the movie show had to close. Some day, Mrs. Barrett predicts, Mccarthy is going to be lively mining city, with | it's modern facilities and all conven- fences. The water supply now is un- excelled and there are many other compensations.
 Once upon a time there was a Wise Man. Not wise like Socrates whose wisdom consisted in an un- derstanding of his lack of Knowl- edge. Our Wise Man had reason for the title. He had shown his sagacity when he married He further clinched his title when he become proud father of twins, and he made his niche in the Halls of Wisdom secure by taking up his residence in Cordova Having played the double A three times and won he became over-confident. He was heard to boast that nobody could ever put anything over on him. This was his first mistake. His second was that he repeated the remark in the hearing of his good wife. From that time dates his fall. Something had to be done.
 One week ago today this Wise Man had birthday. He had reached the nothing had ever been put over on him. From now on however, he will be chiefly noted for his modesty, for on the evening of his birthday some was put over on him. This Wise Man was Bill Henderson of the Pioneer cannery. When Bill returned home last Saturday evening prepared to live up to his daily regimen of wisdom by going early to bed, to his real surprise 1 he found that his wife had summoned group of friends who had taken 1 possession of his home without his knowledge, prepared to celebrate his birthday with jest and youth jollity. To Bills everlasting credit he ad- mitted that as a Wise Man he was a bloomer compared with his wife. Had she not proved it by marrying him.
 The assembled guests included MT. and Mrs. Wm. Ellis, MT. and Mrs. Roy De Leo, MT. and Mrs. J. Haw- thorne, Mr. and Mrs. Jacobson, Mrs. H. Leach, MT. and Mrs. l.. c. Pratt, Mrs Weedin, Miss Elsa Thomson, and Messrs. Muller, Medley, Lillie and P. E. Nettleton. Mrs. Henderson act ed as hostess and Bill was also pres | ent. Cards were indulged in, the first prize being captured by Mrs. Leach and the second by Mrs. Pratt. Mrs. Ja- cobson won the cut prize. Needless to say the lunch that was later served was faultless. A splendid time was had by all, especially by one of the young men, who abhors publicity and | therefore we refrain from mentioning his name, but who ended a Perfect Day by remaining after the guests | had departed and washing the dishes.
