DR. GILBERT LEAVES
 FOR FISH RESERVES
 TO STUDY PROBLEMS

Dr. Charles H. Gilbers, expert ad- wiser to the Bureau of Fisheries in Alaska, left Juneau at o'clock this morning on the Bureaus service boat Widgeon for Ketchikan. where he will make connections with the Pacific American Fisheries boat Redwood en- route to the False Pass section of the fishery reserve at the end of the, Alaska Peninsula. Dr. Gilbert will leave the Redwood at Ikatan in the False Pass section and begin his study of the reserve system of fish cry control.
 It is the purpose of Dr. Gilbert to spend the summer or greater part of the summer in the reserve. He will also carry on his scientific work for the bureau. He expects to make considerable progress toward deter mining the aactual percentage of sal mon that must be permitted to spawn, in order to insure against depletion of the supply: and also to determine the best methods of regu- lating the salmon fishing industry to provide the means for assuring freedom of the necessary percentage for spawning purposes.
 Late in the summer he expects to devote some time to his scientific work in the Loring section north of Ketchikan. And an effort will be made to determine whether certain runs of salmon now being caught and packed on American territory have their spawning grounds located in the streams of Canadian terri tory, to the end that means may be devised for insuring sufficient spawning percentage to prevent the depletion of the supply

 Dan A. Sutherland, Delegate to Congress from Alaska, is in favor of having land offices at both Anchor age and Juneau and says that If the order of removal>.of the land office from Juneau to Anchorage is carried out, which in his opinion will be done. that he will endeavor to have another established at Juneau.
 Delegate Sutherland has been out in the Westward section of the Ter ritory since early in May. looking over the country and taking notes of developments He visited the| Cold Bay oil district and declares that outlook is hopeful.
 The Associated Oil Company pros pecting in the east field of the Cold Bay district is having better luck than the Standard Oil Company which is operating in the western field The Associated has two drills going, one is down 40 feet and the other has attained a depth of 500 feet. The work has been retarded on account of the hard rock en- countered until the present depth was reached, but the drillers claim to be entering softer formation now and more rapid progress is ex- pected. Those in charge of the drill- ing believe that this hard capping is an indication of a sealed pool of consid erable magnitude and are very hopeful of results to be obtained.
 The Standards drilling away and have penetrated to a depth of about 200 feet The hole, however, is crooked and necessitates consider able extra work as the drilling pro- gresscs. Where the kink occurs the hole has to be refilled and redrilled to make it straight. The drillers in .charge have the same optimistic feeling as prevails in the camp of the Associated company
 Delegate Sutherland expects tc join Henry O'Malley, head of the United States Buraeu of Fisheries Senator Wesley L. Jones of the State of Washington and Wallace H White, Congressman from the State of Maine and author of the White Fisheries Bill. at Ketchikan early ir July and make the trip with then lover the salmon fisheries of the Ter. ritory The party is coming nortf | for the purpose of investigating thu | fisheries of Alaska, including the ful seal industry of the Pribilof Islands with the purpose of making recon mendations to Congress for future Legislation on the fishing industry | MT Sutherland said that it was hi hope that both he and the party could be in Juneau at the time President Harding makes his yisi | here

MARSHAL'S COURT IS CALLED IN JUNEAU FOR THE FIRST TIME

For the first time in the history of the First Division of Alaska a Marshal's Court is in session at Ju- neau this afternoon, with Chief Dep uty United States Marshal Elmer E. Reed presiding and a jury of six persons summoned to attend and render verdict. The court is pro vided for by Chapter 42 of the Al aska Session Laws 1915, to pass up- on the validity of claims to owner ship of property in the hands of the United States Marshal under execu- tion to be sold The rendering of verdict by the jury as to owner ship indemnifies the Marshal from penalty attaching to wrongful seiz- ure and sale of property.
 The matter upon which the present case impends arose from the action of Peter Hildre vs. Sam Ross, Ed Ramstead, K. B. Basher, Fanshaw Herring Company and Beacon Trad ing Company.
 -a Plaintiff attached fishing equip ment and various stores in the hands of the individuals named as defend ants alleging claims due plaintiff for services performed for which com pensation had not been received; the Fanshaw Herring Company al legged to be the partnership name under which the individual defend ants did business was made party defendant: the Beacon Trading Com pany is Seattle organization all leged to be identified with the busi ness conducted by defendants.
 In due course the individuals as defendants confessed judgment and execution issued against the property attached At this moment the Beacon Trading Company appears and sets up claim of ownership to the property attached to prevent sale of the property on the execu- .tion. The United States Marshal be- ing in doubt as to the real owner has summoned the jury to pass on the matter. The costs of the action must be borne, by the losing party. Wickersham & Kehoe appear for the plaintiff and Hellenthal & Hellenthal represent claimant Beacon Trading Company.

Christmas Gift
for Mother

III It NEVER comes to Christmas, hut
1 think about the times
X We used to save our pennies and
our Dickels and our dimes;
And we punched them all together,
even little baby brother
Put In something for the present that
we always gave to mother.
We began to talk about it very early
in December,
Twas a very serious matter to us chill
dren, / remember,
And we used to whisper nightly our
suggestions to each other,
For by nothing cheap and tawdry
could we show our love for mother
Hers Eaust be a gift of beauty, fit to
symbolic her ways;
1t must represent the sweetness and
the love that marked her days.
1T must be the best our money, all
combined, had power to buy,
And be something that she longed for;
nothing else would satisfy.
Then it naattered not the token, once
the purchase had been nlade.
1t was smuGgled home and hidden and
with other treasures laid.
And we placed our present proudly in
her lap on Christmas Day.
And we srnethered her with kisses ana
we laughed her tears away.
# never comes to Christmas, but L
think about the times
We used to save our pennies and our
niclSles and onr dimes.
And the only folks envy nre the sis
tiers and the brothers
VINO still have the precious privilege
Of buying for their mothers.

Dan Cupid apparently holds sway
in West Virginia!
Marriage must be considered in tais
state as the outstanding event Of life,
for figures show that it is regarded
even more important than birth or
death.
To be sure, some people consider
birth an event worthy Of record, but
the entrance into the world of a hui
ton given marriage
But alas grim death Is forgotten
one-fourth of the time.
Such Is the story as told by the
records showing the number of births,
marriages and deaths occurring In
West Virginia Practically all mar
riages are recorded because ministers
will not marry couple without Ger
tificate
Babies born within the state should
also have q certificate according to
law, but the records Of births in West
Virginia are too inaccurate for the
U. S. government to recognize them.

graved certificate free. Registration

parentage and age and 1t also informs
the health officials how many bhbies
are being born and where they are To-
Gated To date, only about feur-fifths
as many babies are being registered
as should be- Both the parent and
person attending the mother are ex-
pected to see that this record is made
with the nearest registrar. Registrars
are scattered all over the state not
more than ten miles apart.
As for deaths, only about three
fourths Of them are recorded. With
out death certificates, insurance or
pensions cannot be collected, property
inherited, nor can the health officials
know what diseases are taking human
life. Without this knowledge, effective
measures cannot be taken to prevent
these diseases. Death certificates also
protect those handling the dead from
being suspected of murder
The state health department is striv-
ing to get all deaths and births oc-
curing registered with the division OF
vital statistics.

to fulfill that promise, at once human

dUOuL OITISlludS. but some
thing has happened to lot of people,
declares writer in the Delineator.
There is only one way to have
Christmas, and that is to make it for
someone else.
If there is so little Of the child
left in you that you scorn Christmas
and f1out Santa Claus-if there is SO
little love and sympathy for those who
suffer (for suffering makes the strong
est of us as little children) then find
some excuse to go away on Christmas.
Enjoy your gloom all by yourself. You
will know then what you have lost.
You will prove what is left in life
your life-material facts, and doubt
Of all else.
This is the dross of life. The gold
is in the hands Of little children and
of the men and women who bind theis
souls to that indefnable, mysterious
something in man that lifts him above
the beasts.
Santa Claus is a part of that spir-
itual side Of us; Santa Claus with
his RENDERS, his sleigh bells, his
round little belly and red coat we al
most glimpsed in our childhood-w
never failed to conquer all obstacles
Of storms and roofs and narrow CHM
and no chimneys at ALI Even
in war, when gray death put her
black finger on the heart Of the world.
Santa came down from the nowhere
TO the little children.
