is probably a little more backward than some of them. In this town there are nine stores, many of them carrying a stock of from sf0,000 to s25,000, and this is all paid for and not one of these merchants came to Wrangell with anything. Talk about opportunities and a sat- isfied people, you find them in Alaska.
 AS for scenery, travellers tell us that there is nothing in the Alps or in Norway to compare with it. Alas ka will soon be recognized as the playground of the world. It has re- sources for wood pulp, paper mak- ing, marble, mineral of all kinds that have not as yet been scarcely touched. We are satisfied with Alaska"

Odd Fishin4 Ground

Amphioxus is a little creature that lives in the sea, and also in labora- tories where he serves as a specimen to students of zoology. He is some thing like . fish and something like a worm. and is about two inches long. The Chinese eat him. This taste on their part has caused the development of one of the most extraordinary fish ing grounds in the sea, located in the narrow strait between the mainland and the island of Annoy. In this Him. tied area POO fishing boats are en- ployed daily from August to April in the dredging up of amphioxi which inhabit the bottom of the strait in enormous numbers The average daily catch of the fleet Is more than 300 tons. It has been calculated that this represents 6,5OO,OOO individuals, and that the average annual catch amounts to 1.0O0,oOO,O0o amphiox. Since most of them are not caught. the numbers of these tiny creatures on this stretch of the sea bottom may be better imagined than calculated.

Quite Satisfactory

There is an elderly artist in Wash ington who appreciates fine millinery. the Kansas City Star reports. His young married daughter. however. was practicing domestic economy when a hat, a beautiful affair, arrived for It, ne Marie from her devoted grand parent. whose eye had surrendered to this bit of baby apparel the mo- ment he saw 1t in department store.
 "That hat Is too extravagant for this family" remarked the young mother. I'll take 1t back and see what I can do."
 4 few days later the grandfather called to see the baby in the new hat.
 Do let me see how she looks in il" ," he said. And how did you like itT'
 "very much, father thank you. They gave me two hats, two dresses, . sweater and 49 cents in change for it."

Sees Earth a Desert
 Were Birds to Perish

While man fondly imagines himself lord of the world in which he lives he is actually nothing of the sort The true masters of this planet are the insects. and while man can easily hold bis own against the beasts he Is help less against the insects. Helpless, that Is, without the help of the birds. Few have the faintest notion of the might of the insect world, which far ex- ceeds in number of species, in voracity and in power of multiplication all oth. CT living things. More than three hun dred thousand different sorts of in- scots have been classified, and there are tens of thousands still to be de- Gcribed.
 Were Insects left to work their will and multiply unchecked, it would be merely a matter of two or at the out Ede three years before all crops and all green things would be destroyed. The earth would be a desert.
 Farmers and gardeners arc constant ly at war with birds because some spe- cies eat considerable quantities of grain and fruit. It is, however. es- sential to remember the fact that the food of birds consists mainly of in- sects and that the bird is the ono force which swings the balance of Ma ture against the insect hcrdes.-T. c.

Made of Iron and Has no
Head or Tail Congress-
man POkes Fun at Execu-
tive'S Innovation

Washington, Feb. 13.-The House
was thrown into an uproar when
Rep. Vinson. Democrat of Kentucky
attempted to read poem entitled
"Cal's Hobby Horse" and Rep. Ince
Rep. Mass, sought to have him stop
ped as .lhes,concluded the first line,
Mr.. Ince cohtended that it was a
breach of house rules for member
'to cast ridicule" at the president.
After a hot debate in which doz-
Ell members participated, Rep. Smell
of New York, presiding, overruled
MIR. Ince and Mr.. Vinson continued
his reading.
Washington, Feb. l3.-Old Iron
Sides, the sturdy hobby horse on
which President Coolidge goes gal
Looping three times daily, has taken
the national capital by storm.
Incidentally no small amount of
the storm is >centered in and about
the White House as the result of
the news leaking out.)
Everyone is asking how the dob
bin happened to become the vogue
with the executive.
Here is how:
While the president enjoyed horse
back riding he suffers somewhat
from nasal affliction which is ag-
gravated by the effluvia arising from
the horses hide and any dust that
might be kicked up by canter along
the road. Added to this is the be-
lief of secret service men that horse
back riding is attended by unneces-
sary danger. So the president cast
around for something similar be.
cause his doctors recommended this
type of exercise. Mentioning his
dilemma one day to luncheon guest
who is said to have been Dwight
Morrow, New. York financier and
classmate of the president, at Am.
herst, the guest told of couple OF
electrical mechanical PAGERS which
he owned and if the president would
permit he would send him one.
The horse arrived at the back door
of the White House one day and was
uncrated by the staff. The president
it is said. enjoined secrecy. Rumors
of it's existence had never been con,
firmed until someone innocently LEI
it out yesterday.
The horse is made of iron ant
has no head or tail, though equipped
with regular army saddle and stir
rups. The buttons are placed il
front of the saddle although it i.
now, reported there are only two, {
pace and canter bit, with. three
speeds each.

Probers, in Report, Says Con.
= gress Should Seriously
Consider This
RECOMMENDATIONS
Perfecting of the Corrupt
Practices Act Is Urged
Upon Congress
RECOMMENDATIONS

Washington. Feb. 13.-Congress
should give serious consideration to
the practice Of political organizations
in collecting large sums Of money in
| certain states for use in influencing
elections in other states, the special
senate campaign investigating COM
/ mittee says in report filed by
Chairman Borah.
Besides this recommendation the
committee proposes enactment Of the
corrupt practices act recently ap-
proved by the senate, 70 to 3. as a
rider to the postal pay and rate in
crease bill which now is pending as
part Of the postal bill recommend
ed by the senate postoffice commit
F., tee as substitute for the house
measure.
Makes Recommendations
| Moreover, the campaign committee
suggests that in perfecting the cor
rupt practice laws an effort be made
to accommodate the limit Of eXpendi.
ture by candidates for federal Offices
to the size and population of the
state. 1t says it is neither wise nor
just to fix the same amount for a
candidate in a state with a popula-
tion of 100000 as in state with
population of 100000 or more.
Besides these recommendations for
legislation. the report contains de.
tailed accounts of receipts, expendi-
lures and contributions as given by
! the national committee of the three
major political parties for the last
campaign. The report says the in
vestigation conducted by the com.
mittee in Washington and Chicago
in the closing days of the 1924 cam.
paign showed that.
The Republican national committee
collected $4,3e0,47S and expended
$4,270.4O9.
The Democratic national commit
tee collected $S21, ,O37 and expended
$9O3. .9OS.
The progressive or independent ma.
tional committee collected 1921 ,83'
and expended $221.977.
Believes Reports True

| With respect to the practice o
using funds from one state in an
other, the report says:
| "This may we'll become the sub
