portunity to get first hand information con cerning all of our resources and to meet us and really find out just who we are. Now comes another letter saying that Dr. and Mrs Hibben find it impossible to come to Fair banks towing to the shortness of his time and the trouble in reaching Fairbanks by way of the Yukon.'
 We are long-suffering and patient but the fact is that we are getting just about all we can stand of the treatment that is being handed to the tourists and would-be tourists from the Canadian side of the fence Of course we don't expect tourists to willingly put up with the accommodations that are in operation from Dawson to Fairbanks via the Yukon river route. The problem is ours and is for us to solve. Naturally our friends in Dawson are not going to solve it for us, for up to the present time they do not seem to ap- preciate the fact that it would be to their in terest to do so All they can see is a round trip from Whitehorse to Dawson. That means no tourists for the Interior of Alaska via the river route. It is contended that the service by scow and motor boat is all that IS Justi- fled at present. That seems to be all we are getting, though the opportunity is offered for those who are good cooks to do their own cookin' en route
 It is to be hoped that the recent trip of Gen elal Morton to the Interior will be the means of effecting a solution of this problem. We want to see the Government river boats turn ed over to the Alaska Engineering Commis- sion to operate between Nenana and Dawson. In other words, we want to have an even break in the tourist travel because the tourist, as wa know wants to come here and besides, too, we want to see Col. Mears have at least an even break in the operation of the Govern Iment railroad.-Fairbanks News-Miner.

THE OBSTACLE RACE

Life with no difficulties in it would be a dull life, indeed.
 No man of energy and ambition hopes to go to heaven where there are no struggles and no problems.
 It is by overcoming difficulties and the solving of problems that the human race has developed mind
 The chief reason that few men of affairs ever want to retire is that they cannot be con- tent with life of absolute ease.
 It does not seem natural to them. It is not natural. No being worth his salt can be con tent to think that he has nothing to do but rest for the remainder of his life. .r
 Elderly business men who are forced by ill health to abandon their work take up golf, which creates artificial problems-and prob lems that are by no means easy to master.
 Games have been invented as human pas times because each of them involve some diff ficulties.
 Utter rest-save for very little whle-is not at all pleasing to the rightly constituted man or woman.
 Reading is not rest, for when 1t is done in tellioent1v it involves thought, and thought IS by no means easy.
 The student of history discovers very soon that life is really work, and that the more of it there is the happier is the individual who does 1t.
 The youth who begins a career with the idea of amassing fortune which will enable h1m to loaf will never gain the fortune or get the endowment out of loafing he expects
 Life is really an obstacle race. Hurdles are set un for us, and we take them as best we can. Sometimes we stumble, but If we are the right sort we pick ourselves up and go on.
 The taking of the first hurdles enables ns better to take the second. When we have talk en few thousand none of them seem so big or so troublesome to us.
 We have acquired the obstacle habit, and we are fairly well equipped for the rest of the journey.
 The work hater-the man who seeks to have others do his work for him-does not belong in life. He will find it very unpleasant and dis tressing, unless he cultivates enough common sense to pitch in and do as those around him do-make an obstacle race of it, and get a lot of fun out of running it.-Seattle P. l.

WASTING BRIGHT IDEAS

Enonoh brains exist in the world to solve most of our problems, thinks Edward l.. olos- son. writing in Science Services Science Ne"s Rnl]etin The trouble is that the power IS neg lected or improperly applied, and that our ideas are wasted The rarest and most Valu- ablo thino in the world, writes MT. Slosson, is that scintillating but impalpable exerctlon of the cerebral cortex known as 'brlght idea ;, There are in any generation only few onnces or, at the most pounds, of gray mat ter sufficiently active to give OH thls oil- liant emanation. He contlnues
 s.Ypt large part, and probably the most valuable part of what is produced by the ac- tivity of this thin, gray film Whlch covers certain brains, is lost for time and Ill some cases forever through the carelessness ol col- temporaries There is no form of conserVa- ton that is so important as the conserVaIloh of ideas. ,
 'sThat much abused word 'conserVatloh has two meanings totally opposite. ConserVa- tion in some cases means uslng cohserva- tion: in other cases means not usllg. 1ne M 1epislator with his agate bearing tongue Will talk of the conservation just as though the two things were alike and required the same treatment It is just as absurd as II hlah should ask painter to have hls house paint cd .the color of snow and ink. The COIL servation of coal means saving It, tor what is not used today will be of use tomor- TOW. The conservation of water-poWer on the contrary. means using 1t, for what IS not used today will be lost forever.
 ..The oreatest waste is our failure to utilize, not our carlessness in methods of utlllzatlon' We waste 50 per cent of our petroleum through irrational and competitive drllllng We waste two-thirds of our coal before its energy gets into the engine But we waste all of the sun shine that falls upon our arid reglon lands' and that means greater loss of energy than we get from all our oil and coal. The richest region in the United States IS Death Valley' California Even the green places are not able to catch and incorporate more than one per cent of the power of the sunshine that. falls on them If some one would invent solar en- zine with an efficiency of even five per cent it would add incaIculably to the wealth of the country through the utilization of the wasted sunbeams that fall upon our arid land
 '.Here is prize bigger than any grasped by coal kings and oil magnates. But nobody comes forward to claim it. Yet very likely the knowledge necessary to achieve this supreme triumph of chemical engineering is already in existence-somewhere.
 eff it is not, there is certainly enough brain power in the world to solve the problem if 1t were set to work at it. We are all of us the poorer because of this waste of ideas and in ventive genius"

THE "GYPPED" TOURIST

Writing to President Bunnell few weeks ago, Col. E. Lester Jones of the Coast Guard and Geodetic Survey stated that Dr. and Mrs. Hibben were coming to Alaska this summer and would visit the Interior. Dr. Hibben is president of Princeton University, and his proposed visit to Fairbanks was looked for ward to with great interest. Col Jones is a great booster for Alaska and he was anxious that this famous Eastern educator should visit the Interior of Alaska and have an op-
