He has cancer of the stomach and is so en- feebled that he is compelled to make the long journey on a stretch CT, being unable to walk. He is ac- companied by friend, It is con- sidered doubtful if the sick man will survive the trip to Seattle. Blay- lock was a resident of Fairbanks for many years, and recently staked number of claims on Indian river, in the Koyukuk district. where he and his partner did considerable de- veIopment work last summer. He was preparing to make another trip to Indian river when his illness com pelled him to seek medical relief in Fairbanks.

WATER RUNNING SMOOTHLY
 IN SNAKE RIVER

The Spring freshet on Snake River this year is rather backward, prob ably due to the fact that there is not much snow in the hals. The amount of water running at this time is not felt in regard to ice jams, as. the ice at the mouth of the river has gone cut, thus relieving any strain or pressure which might have happened had the freshet increased as usual. Small TOW boats are now able to go ir and out of the river and shortly after the ice of Boring Sea went out, several row boats were seen on the briuy deep.

 At this writing it is not fully known just what the nature of the exercises will be. but it Is stated by those in charge. of arrangements a very fitting program will be staged
 The following resolution was paas- ed: We the undersigned members of Thomas A.

Members to meet at the Coast Guard Station. at s a. m., on Memorial Day"
 The local post of the American Legion will place the cemetery at Fort Davis in first class shape, draining the grounds. strengthening up head boards on the graves and causing the last resting place of their departed Buddies to take on an appearance of attention and care
 The question of obtaining head stones for the many graves at the Fort was discussed at the meeting, and it is expected that before the Summer is over, headstones for all the graves in this cemetery will have arrived in Nome.

A HEALTH CENTER DAY
Meeting at Court House Next
Week for Parents and Chill
dren.

DIR, Cora Allen state board of
health physician will be in charge
OF the Mother and Baby Health
center to be held at the Court
House, Eagle River, Jan. 31st from
y a. m. to p. m.
Complete examinations will be
given children under six years of
age; parents may receive advice
and instruction as to their general
care, feeding etc. Examinations
and advice are also offered to pros
pectlve mothers.
Parents should avail themselves
OF the opportunity offered at the
health center to determine whethl
er or not children are in GOOD
condition and should plan to re-
turn regularly to check up and
see that this good condition is
maintained. 1t is easy to keep
a well child well, and should de-
fects exist the earlier they are
discovered and corrected, the bet
ter for the child. Children do not
outgrow physical defects, on the
contrary, these defects retard the
average growth and development
of the child. The center offers
mothers one opportunity to learn
the methods of feeding and car
ing fore babies which give them
the best chance for healthy growth
and development. 1t is Just as
easy to learn the right way as the
wrong one and much better for
the child.
In addition to the examination
and advice offered prospective
mothers, the center nurse has pre-
pared and will have on display at
the center, complete layette; pat
terms for same may be obtained
at the center. An obstetrical
package, containing materials ne
cessary for use when children are
born at home will also be on dis
play. The staff at the center will
be very glad to confer with inter
ested women concerning the pre-
paration of supplies necessary for
use in home deliveries.
The service at the center, which
is under the supervision of the
state board of health, is free to
all; it is part of the plan of the
state board of health in their ef-I
forts to reduce the maternal and.
infant mortality in Wisconsin.

GERMAN RELIEF CAMPAIGN.
Special Clothing Campaign.

We can have only a faint idea
of the economic situation in which
the people of Germany are strug-
Cling. All are in want, but espec-
tally in the cities the working
people and those Of the middle
class are literally facing starva-
ton. In the winter, which has al
ready set i'm besides the lack of
food there is the want Of neces-
sary clothing; so that freezing is
added to hunger. 1t is needless
to say that because of these pri-
vations children, the aged, and es-
pecially pregnant and nursing
women, are perishing.
In the face of this sorrowful
spectacle it is not the time to ask
who is responsible for it. Rather
it is the duty of all those whose
hearts beat with sentiments of hui
mainly and Christian charity, to
come as quickly and as effectively
as they can to the aid of these
poor victims, who, surely cannot
be held in any way responsible.
To alleviate the distressing con-
ditions of the German people, a
nationwide campaign is being
made, especially in the larger
cities. The Catholic Church of
America has undertaken to direct
special clothing campaign. Ev.
cry citizen is asked to help in this
campaign regardless of creed. The
clothing thus obtained will be dis
tributed to the poor sufferers, re-
gardless of creed. The things that
are desired are given in the fol-
lowing list:
/. Flannels and cottons, under
wear, stockings, socks, shirts, APP
rons, overalls. All for men and
women and children.
2. Outer garments, suits, coats,
trousers, overcoats, hats and caps,
especially for children, shawls
(not hats) for women, winter
gloves, wristlets, capes and rain
coats. -
3. Linens and ,muslins, towels,
handkerchiefs, blankets, comfor-
tables, sheets and pillow cases for
the home and the hospitals. Also
small linens for babies.
4. Remnants of wooden and cot
ton goods, yarn, cotton thread,
buttons, needles for sewing and
knitting. . 90
s Shoes and overshoes for men,
women and children.
6. Money. Some are willing to
donate money rather than cloth
