Alaska is being flooded with literature beg ging the residents to buy stock in Texas, Oklahoma and Arkansas oil companies. Pick ings must be getting poor in the States or else the brokers are offering gratuitous in suit to the intelligence of Alaskans.-Hyder Miner.
 So many are keen to do something for tour ists, which is all right in its way, but if they exerted the same effort to do something for resident and needy Alaskans, their names might be inscribed in halo of greater glory in the great book where deeds and not words count.-Juneau Capital.
 The Pioneers of Alaska unanimously en- ,lorsed the proposal for governmental regu- laton covering the shipments of fresh and frozen fish from the North Pacific waters to the American markets making it necessary that they be packed or prepared for shipment .n an American port. That endorsement IS ot importance and should carry much weight from these men who have been in the Territory for twenty years and more.
 Prior to the meeting there was some object ton among some of the Pioneers, and 1t devel- oped that as soon as the matter was thorough ly explained to them they readily gave their Endorsement and so advised the delegate from Alaska-Ketchikan Chronicle.

The Good Luck club met at the
home of Mrs. Nellie Derwacter
Nov. 2, for an all day meeting and
pot luck dinner. Twelve members
and one visitor. Mrs. Icy Sevall,
were present. The ladies were very
busy making a comforter which
they expect to sell later. The roll
call was answered by relating some
funny but embarrassing moment.
Officers were elected for the COM

Mrs. Carrie Osborn: vice president,
Mrs. Marietta White; secretary,
Miss Georgia Richardson treasur-
er, Mrs. Nellie Derwacter. The
next meeting will be held Dec. %

with families invited.
The ladies of the club and their
families were royalty entertained
by the husbands at the Carl White
home Saturday evening, Nov. H.,
with an oyster supper. There were
54 persons present. The ladies
certainly enjoyed the evening, as
there was no cooking, waiting table
or dish washing to do, the hus-
bands doing all the work. The
oysters were cooked ''fit for a

New System Bakery Closed

AS the result of an attachment
being filed in the Mayors court
here against the machinery and
equipment of the New System bak-
cry here, it has suspended opera
ton. Two attachments were filed,
one by the Cochran & Pinkerton
Co, for $40; the other by the
Dover Produce Co., to satisfy a
claim of $105 A preliminary
hearing was held in Mayor Raj
ston's court Wednesday afternoon,
but final action will not be taken
until next week, the time being al
lowed in order to give the pro-
prietor Chas. Stratton a chance to
raise the necessary money to salts
fy the claims. The New System
bakery proprietor came here from
Murray City about three months
ago, and opened up in the G. w.
Partesius rooms and seemed to do
quite a good business. They had
only been here a few weeks when
suit for money was filed against
them by parties at Murray City, to
satisfy a claim for baking material
gotten while in business at that
place, before coming here.

Blessed is the church member
who will not lose the dare of faith,
or cut the nerve of aggression.
Blessed is the church member
whose optimism sees through the
clouds, knows God reigns and helps
daily to make it right with the
world
Blessed is the church member
who finds time to keep the home
fires burning, who has a place for
the family altar and will let moth
ing hinder him from daily offering
thereon the incense of prayer.
Blessed is the church member
who will not shelve the midweek
and Sunday services for his own
pleasure or profit.
Blessed is the church member
who is generous with his money.
Verify he loveth in his purse as
we'll. as in his professions. He shall
be like the ocean lavish with bless
ings, like the sun bestowing a kind
ly light on many, like his Lord rain
ing his benedictions upon the race.
Blessed is the church member
who has no criticism he will not
share first with his pastor, no
crouch he will not give speedy
funeral, no hammer he will not sur
render the moment he has knocked
to pieces the thing majority of
his fellow members thinA should
go, and no imaginary or real slight
that will make him sulk.
Blessed is the church member
who regards Gods house as the ap-
pointed meeting place with his
heavenly Father, a spot where the
rich and the poor, the wise and 9TH

worship before common mercy~

A Hunting They Did Go

Three of our prominent citizens.
Messrs. Geo. M. Scott, Perl Potts
and Rev. R. o. McRae, have organ
lied themselves into a coon hunt
ers' trio, and Monday night went
out on a chase. Where they went
was unbeknown to them all, but
they went just the same. McRae
and Potts have since been quite a
bit peeyed, because Scott got home
sick and made the others take him
home little after 8 a. m. We un-
derstand that the next time they
go they are going to take along a
block and tackle. in order to help
Scott ascend and descend the hills.
If there were any fewer coons after
this hunt, it can't be charged up
against these hunters.
