SEIMS-CARLSON ROAD CAMP IS
 ONE OF COMFORT
NEW WORK BEGUN THIS MORN ING ON kENAl-SEWARD CUT
 OFF BY SUPT. WOODS
ELIMINATES STREAMS
Superintendent Woods Praises Activ- ities of His Crew of Thirty Men.
 Road Will Circle Hill

Grading work on the new Seward Kenai cutoff began this morning with one crew on the job, announces V. K. Woods, superintendent of the Seims and Carlson road crew. Clearing was also begun this morning at point zero, the Seward end of the cutoff. A crew has already penetrated to a distance of three quarters of mile from Sta tion 174, the other end of the trail. The going at that point is particularly difficult owing to the heavy under brush and numerous trees. At this juncture, where the new road meets the old one, it will circle the bottom of the mountain, going through by the old McPherson homestead. When completed the cutoff will eliminate the glacial stream which in times past has hindered traffic to great extent, the road being inundated at certain seasons. In length the road will be
  splendid scenic section.
 Over Thirty Men Employed.
 Over thirty men are at present em ployed on the project and a trip thru the company's camp at the far end ot the cutoff reveals most modern outfit, so equipped for conscience and comfort that no hardships of any kind fall on the crew Three large tents house the men, each accommodating eight or nine men. They are warm and comfortable, and furnished with single spring beds. No double deckers are in the tents. Another tent serves as the office for Supt. Woods, and this also is his quarters. The blacksmith shop is off to one side.
 Fred Schrenger Is Chef
 The cookhouse and meat house however, is the center of attraction at the camp, for here, under the man agement of chef, Fred Schrenger anc wife, the destiny of the inner man 1s presided over. The kitchen is a mar vel of cleanliness, with systematic orderliness apparent at all times. MT Schrenger is one of the best cooks O. this. district, having served as chef 9 the Seward Grill for a year or so.

gathered in the camp. Not a garbage can is glimpsed by the visitor to the camp. Coal and wood for the camp is purchased by the ton and rick. One can easily ascertain why the firm of Stems and Carlson is so familiarly known about the Territory after mak- ing a visit to one of their ideal camps. In addition to this they have the name of always completing their pro- jects which they may have under con- tract.

CROSSES OCEAN TWICE;
SPENDS SEVENTY CENTS

Dorothy Reilly, 16, of Englewood
N. j., arrived in New York Tuesday
on the liner Drottingholm, after an
involuntary round trip from New
York to Stockholm. She was greeted
at the dock by her overjoyed par
ents.
The girl went aboard the Drot-
tingham May 8, with a companion,
Segfried Handel, to bid bon voyage
to friends. They failed to hear the
warning whistle and when she came
on deck they were at sea. Capt.
Anderberg communicated by wire
less to the girls parents. Miss Han
del was told to visit relatives in
Stockholm, but Dorothy's parents
asked the captain to bring her back
on the return trip. Financially, Dor
othy's trip was a success, as she
started with 81 and returned with
80 cents.
Never again." Dorothy declared.
II was homesick all the time.
Passengers said she had cried
almost continually.

SCHOOL BOARD
OFFERS RELIEF
VIII Give Additional Teacher II Pat
rons Pay Salary

The meeting Of the County School
Board on Monday attracted repre-
sentative citizens from several Sec
tions of the county intent on getting
additional teachers for various
schools or making other changes.
The session lasted almost the en-
tire day and Woodstock had it's hear
ing for an additional teacher in the
High School. A committee, of which
Frank S. Tavenner, Jr., was chair
man and spokesman and composed
cussion Ksschool shr en- en- ct e
OF DIR. j. B. Rush, Wilbur l.. New
man, Philip Williams, H. Morrison,
Jr., Mrs. John A. Heller and Mrs.
Frank B. Riddleberger represented
the Civic League and these acted
with citizens committee of which
Joseph B. Clover, Rev. A. o. Price,
Russell Boyer, Milton Bowman,
Frank Boyer and George Barr were
members.
The local situation was placed
squarely before the Board in an in
telligent and unmistakable way, but
the Board because of its limited fl
nances could see no way by which
the condition could be remedied ex-
cept by the citizens of the town as
Stunning the cost of such teacher. The
same reason was given to schools at
Forestville, Toms Brook and other
places for the Boards inability to
furnish additional teachers.
The Board, however, agreed to
provide a room for an additional
teacher in the High School condi.
toned upon the assumption by the
Civic League of the teachers pay.
The reconstruction of the Mt
Jackson High School building, which
was Quilted by fire, is about half com
pleted and work is being pushed tC
have the structure completed within
few months.
The Woodstock petition for ;
teacher presented by the committee,
was signed by 257 patrons and tax
payers.

DECORATION DAY

Those who deprecate the devotions
paid our soldier dead when once
each year we strew their hallowed
mounds with lowered tokens of our
love, must assuredly trace their fore
bears to that unenviable class who
were invincible in time of peace and
invisible in time of war.
Whatever may be our individual
ideas of war or the attendant evils or
possible good which grow out OF
strife and slaughter, We must know
that those who made the supreme
sacrifice in clash of arms dared and
died in a cause they loved and for
principles which they believed to be
right
True, many went west not fully
comprehending all that was involved
in bringing about clash of arms,
but these were spurred to noble deeds
by duty to the land they loved, and
in the hour of triumph or defeat
they shared the common glory of
those who led.
Certainly in their sacrifice We
should find a higher sense of duty to
our flag, and in their martyrdom a
keener appreciation of what it stands
for.
God pity the land which forgets
the men who battled for its rights
and faced the belching guns for a
cause which in their consciences they
believed to be just
The wreath-strewn graves of he
roic dead should teach us all that
indeed duty is the sublimest word
in the English language" and those
who died that we might live in a
country made better by their death
should feel it an honor to pay HON
age where homage is so justly do.
And so it should be deemed priv
ilege and an honor to lay our gar
lands on the graves of those who
having served have reaped the re-
ward of those who were faithful
even unto death.

SHENANDOAH LAMBS
TOP JERSEY MARKET

A recent shipment of lambs pro-
duced and shipped by Mr.. o. B.
Barnes of Mt. Jackson to the Jersey
City market topped the market on
the day of sale. His lambs have
now topped the Jersey City market,
which is considered the highest
priced spring lamb market in the
United States, for three successive
years.
Mr.. Barnes uses practical, every
day methods that it is possible for
every farmer to use in producing
market topping lambs. Probably the
main factors in the quality of his
lambs are that he uses pure bred
rams, docks and castrates his lambs,
and takes good care of his breeding
ewes.

These are but few of the news
features of the day, and when there
is added to those the great rum war
now being carried on by the United
States Revenue Service along thou
sands of miles of ocean front, it can
be seen that there is little placid on
the face of the earth. Incidentally,
cyclones and earthquakes are being
intermittently served up in America
and abroad, with an occasional mine
horror to add to the woe.
And yet, withal. these things are
but recurring events and in reality
there is nothing unusual going on.
1t is a repetition of the same old
story told and retold thousands of
times in as many years, and it is the
same story which will be retold as
long as men are human and natural
laws remain unchanged.
Probably the most serious menace
to civilization, and one which really
arouses pessimism, is the unholy
strife in the churches of today, fol-

it will be done through the power

and this influence is diminished just
in proportion as there is strife among

BRIGHT FUTURE
FOR VALLEY
Staunton Capitalist Predicts Big
Things Through Publicity

"Some day there will be a real
city in the Valley. l don't say it
will be Staunton, but If you say it
will be Staunton, then it will be
Staunton, declared julius Witt,
prominent local banker and manu-
facturer, in addressing the Kiwanis
Club in Staunton Tuesday.
Mr.. Witt said he saw the Shenan-
doah Valley, Inc, and in the public
ity campaign it is conducting, day
/ in the not too distant future, when
the Valley would be recognized and
glow in the national limelight like
the Florida and California of today
1--WE have everything here we need
to develop the Valley into the great
est spot in this country. And thru
publicity well not only know it is
the greatest place, but outsiders will
be led to investigate and. after an
investigation, will agree with us and
seek openings here.
There is no reason in the world
why Staunton should not double its
population in the next five or ter
years. Here where the Valley
reaches its greatest width; here
where we have splendid Transports
ton facilities; here where we have
great people, great churches, great
schools, we also have the money tt
+ finance almost any proposition.
1T is up to you men of Kiwanis
to the Rotarians, and to those il
other organizations to say whethel
or not Staunton will be the grea
city that is bound to spring III
somewhere in the Valley. There il
no reason why our city cannot ge
results"
I'VE have got to do something TO
our boys; we must keep them a
home and bring back those who hav,
gone elsewhere" said Mr. Witt il
stating that it is up to the men o
affairs here today to provide tn,
proper working environment for tn
youth of Staunton; the youth who i
finishing school and desires to re
main here. 1--WE must begin thei
training by moulding character il
the homes. They must be taught t
go to church. That is very essential
They must be given an education
/. And in speaking of education, l d
not believe in higher education TO
those who do not want it; don
force education on them. They mus
be taught that it is to their interes
to take more interest in politics"

1T is ALL WRONG

A facetious follower of fashions
recently remarked that in this gen
Grafton a woman dressed about as
much for a banquet as she did for
a bath. Assuredly, the wad OF
fabric used for flounces by latter
day fappers is little more than that
required for a lamp shade, but hard
ly enough to drape the Goddess OF
Liberty Modern dress seems to have
struck a medium between "Septem-
Der Morn" and grandma's crinoline
and more calves are seen on Main
Street than are sold in the Chicago
Stock Yards.
To all of which we have no objec-
tion and, even if we did object, not
a hem would be added to milady' s
skirt nor a single bead to the bodice
What jars US, though. is the incon-
sistency, almost the cruelty, of the
fair sex, fair only when pulchritude
is involved, but unfair in prescribing
sartorial settings for miserable man.
It's just this way:
Now when the thermometer is
teasing the top of the tube the scant-
lily clad female of the species de-
mands that mere man tog himself in
garments of torridity, wrap his
Adams apple in four-ply neck
band and conceal his shins with
sweat-producing sox.
He must wear coat suitable for
the social function into which he is
unfortunately thrust, and even his
salvation is handicapped by the ta-
boo on shirt sleeves during the Sun
day morning sermon. He dare not
dine where debs or dowagers gather
unless his apparel has been properly
hung and even when he dies he is
dressed as if for an arctic journey,
when perchance a Palm Beach suit
would add comfort to the long, long
voyage to the domain where Dives
needed an electric fan
Why not allow men the same lati-
tude in dress, or undress, as women
arrogate unto themselves? Why
should the bobbed hair sister be
shocked by the poor form, exceeding
ly bad taste and apparent vulgarity
of suffering brother who chooses to
sip his soup in semi-negligee, when
the mercury scars, when she toys
with her salad, while attired in the
fullest material from fashions
loom, and scarcely enough of that
to make window draperies for a
dolls house
1t is all wrong.
Some day men will dare to be COM
Portable in church, at the dining ia
BILE, the bridge club or in the ball
room in the caloric season of the
year. False pride will disappear as
did the dodo, and it will be a hap
pier world. At least it will be more
comfortable.

Amy inclination toward pessimism

complex problems of these kaleidio-

some of the attributes of our Chris
