Something to Think About
BvF. A. UALKER

is extremely difficult, but with
heart filled with a struggling radl-
ancy of faith, sustained by qualities
which only faith can give us, we
can do it, and reach the state OF
tranquil content which comes qulet-
" TO the earnest and sincere, like
the sunshine of morning after a night
Of storm.
We may clap our hands to the
heights but we cannot reach them
except by our own unceasing en-
deavor.
We must expect tired, bruised feet,
we must anticipate slips and falls and
a sickening sense Of our own in
firmities. but we must keep climbing
keep holding fast all the while to the
hand of shining-eyed Faith, who, IL
spite of our unworthiness, will lead
us hour by hour to higher ground.
There are many ways in which we
may help ourselves. but not until
our hearts have been properly attuned
to the dominant key and kept In
tune.
Hard work, high thinking and
charitable attitude towards others vii
be found helpful attendants. for with
out their first aids no man or woman
however accomplished or exalted, car
hone to emerge from the shadows ant
write an acceptable record OF a well
spent life.

WILL RETAIN OLD COACHES
Williams College Authorities Likely to
Keep the Men Who Have
Done Good Work.

Present indications are that there
will be few changes in the list OF
coaches for major athletic teams at
williams college next year despite the
engagement of Guerdon Messer as ath-
letic director. Official announcement
has been made in all cases, but Percy
Wendell, the old Harvard star, will
surely be back to coach in football,
while Jack Coombs, formerly OF the
Athletics, is slated to look after fall
baseball practice. Doctor Seeley is
practically sure of being in charge OF
track again. Nothing has been said
in regard to basketball coach for next
wear. but it would not be surprising If
John Shanahan of North Adams was
reappointed, as he has me. with ex-
cellent success during the last two
years, considering the numerous handi-
caps which faced him. He has built
up a system which should commence
to bear fruit next season.

SIN AND CITIES

DON'T blame sin on the cities.
- No community is ever better
than the people within it. II the peo-
pie are honest, God-fearing, law-abid-

their churches, regardless OF denomi-
nation, they'll find little cause for COM
plant no matter where they live. But
when they know what is right and
don't do it or don't insist on others
following the best pathway, they are
likelys to be disgruntled with condi-
tions which they bring upon them
selves.
We know a great deal about most Of
the big cities, but we know just as
much of the small towns and open
country, and proportionately. we be.
lieye. there is no difference In the
volume Of wrong doing. And we con-
fidently believe that II people hailing

It is true that there are many more
amusements and inducements In big
towns which are likely to divert new
comers' attention from church work
and home life. But none Of these will
lead people from the proper pathway

commercialized amusements on the

on those who know they are wrong, II
they wish conscientiously to follow
the safe pathway.

THOUGHT HE WAS OUT

One day the Cardinals were
playing at Philadelphia and Pat
Flaherty, the southpaw, was on
the slab for the Quakers. Pat
had a deceptive motion to first
base and often fooled not only
the runners, but the batters.
St. Louis got a man to hrst
and Steve Evans came up to
bat. Pat kept pegging over to
first and to the plate, winding up
by having two strikes and three
balls on Steve.
Pat suddenly, with brilliant
move, threw to first. Evans
thought he was hurting at him
and took a vicious swat-at
Pats motion.
Thoroughly disgusted with
himself, Steve threw his bat
down and started back to the
Card bench.
Here, there, where are you
going?" demanded the umpire,
81 struck at that; I'm out,
amt II" said Steve.
The Cardinal manager made
Evans return to the plate and
complete his turn.

Uncommon
Sense s,~1a ;sa1 si1a
HONESTY

A TEN-DOLLAR bill is either good
"A or bad. A man Is either honest
or dishonest.
ff he is honest he will not cheat or
steal. or take undue advantage OF an
other man, under any circumstances.
If he is dishonest, his cheating ana
stealing will be limited only by his
opportunity or his timidity.
The difference between big thieves
and little crooks is sometimes dif-
ference Ct opportunity-more often a
difference Of courage.
The little thief doesn't steal con-
tinually because he Is afraid to. Inc
big thief has less timidity-or less
imagination, and steals whenever ne
has q chance.
But one is Just as dishonest as the
other. And often the little fellow Is
the worse, for he adds cowardice to
his crookedness.
A full-grown man or woman, trained
IN life who does q dishonest action,
will do another under the same cir
cumstances.
A boy or girl, lacking this training
will sometimes become straight with
the growth Of intelligence.
For the ancient adage about hon.
esty being the best policy Is so ap.
parent to common sense that even peo
ple who are mentally crooked often
turn honest and eremain honest, mere
lly because more profit can be had ir
that manner Of life.
1t is well to apply the honesty tes
to yourself. and change, your method
II you find that under certain circum
stances you would take advantage O

gally.
It Is well to drop friends that yo'

Neyef think that a man or a woman
Is a little dishonest, or dishonest
about some things and honest about

They are 100 per cent honest or

GOOD ROADS NEEDED

GOOD roads are the foundation for the upbuilding of nation. The Ke- nai-Seward road is a concrete illus tration of the benefits to be derived from an efficient means of transporta- tion. Built but a few years the nu- cIeus of a small agricultural section has been opened, ranches dotting the roadside for a distance of severar miles from town. And from the amount of slashing and clearing other ranches are evidently under way.
 In course of time Alaska will be thickly settled with small land own CTS, who will devote their time to till ing the soil, trapping, dairying, and other rural avocations. Land Is prao- tically free for the asking and all tu- bers and root crops can be raised in abundance. Markets, so badly needed at the present time, will gradually de velop, and these hardy tillers of the soil will be among the most indepen- dent of all Alaskans.

DONATIONS NEEDED

JUST as we had started feeling complacent and self-satisfied over the way business is picking up in the Ter ritory in general and Seward in par ticular here comes another communi- cation from the facile pen of our pes simistic townsman, Thos. B. Drayton that causes the gallywampus to again mourn in the gloaming and our tobac- co to taste like Dead Sea fruit.
 In a recent article to California paper MT. Drayton charges that the good ship of state is becalmed in the doldrums and that Alaskans are so poor that majority of us cannot af- ford sheets on our beds, and that the territory is deluged with mourners of the government to the greener fields of the great outside.
 He piles Ossa upon Pelion by charg- ing that many of us cannot afford to take bath from year to year. With all due regard for the accuracy of MT. Drayton's observations we must ask him to confine himself to facts and not premises. If there is man in Seward who has not slept upon sheets clean or otherwise at least some time in his life, and who has not been swamDed off since his diaper days, one could not tell it by appearance or by the effluvium. There may be one or two exceptions, who have an aversion to water amounting to hysteria, but if this Is the case their names have nev CT been placed upon the roster of mas culine pulchritude that burgeons in 57 varieties upon our streets.
 The statement that the breakfast dishes were not washed in fourth of the homes in Alaska by mid-after- noon reveals a paucity of knowledge of conditions in the Territory. There is no need to wash dishes with score of hungry malemutes hanging about the kitchen The dogs lick the dishes and the owners lick the dogs, 8 divi- sion of labor, as it were.
 The Gateway has received a half dozen copies of the epistle penned to the Californians anxious friends in the States evidently desiring to make up a Christmas box for suffering Alaskans. In case this is done we pray that one nightie, size 72, and one 4x7 foot bathtub be included. A sponge and two bars of soap might also be used at later date. Donations may be left at the Alaska Bureau, Seattle Cham Der of Commerce.

ANCHORAGE appears in no wise
 depressed over the recommendations
 of Dr. H. Foster Bain, the alleged
 government expert, that coal does not exist in the Matanuska fields in suffi- cient quantities to commercialize 1t. Anchorage residents know the coal is there in vast quantities; as do all other towns along the railway. Resi- dents have been at loss to account for MT. Bain's statements, made so soon after his arrival at the coal fields. There are sevedal reasons why the Pacific coast towns will nev- CT be flooded with Alaskan coal, the, chief reason being that coal operators in the states do not want to see any great supply thrown on the markets until the fields of the State are ex- hausted. The state of Washington

alone has vast beds of fine co4! I.--.2n have been held in an undaveloped state for this reason. Alaskans aye chiefly concerned in getting a sut1i- cient supply for their own use at a reasonable price. This is now an aa- sured fact. MT. Bain may have shocK- ed Alaskans by his bald statements concerning coal but he cannot shake our optimism by adverse reports.
