OlOOu Cl1o uSSC11pClOu IS amazing.
 "The Legion was the stamping ground of the typical ex-German as he has been described for gen erations. Seventy per cent of the Legion were Germans, and it was German food, German manners, Ger man discipline, German militarism, German arrogance, German insol- ence and German arbitrariness. One of the Majors was a German-Alsa- tian, the Jewish Lieutenant had German name, every sergeant-ma- jor but one was a German, every sergeant but two was German, the cooks were Germans and the in- firmary nurses were Germans. The severity of the punishments was decidedly German. It was a Ger man regiment of the lowest type transplanted to Africa. The soldiers spoke German among themselves and aired only German sentiments. They retained all their German habits, excessive drinking, eating, smoking, swearing and blasphem- ing"
 The whole book seems to be one of disillusionment, as can be seen from the following paragraph:
 "Genuine feeling was unknown in the Legion. There was nothing to redeem; man was a living shell, with his soul dead, with no con- science or scruple, without heart or feeling, with only belly to feed and fill with drink, and sexual or gans to serve him for his depravi- ties. To rob openly, to steal se- cretly, to murder when lust prompt ed, were all one to him. There was no friendship, no respect for others, nothing was sacred. Every thing was calculated, every feel ing only existed theoretically, was called into service to obtain money, drink, food, tobacco and animal sat isfaction. And having once suc- ceeded, the victim was publicly laughed and jeered at, treated with contempt for his stupidity and soft ness and when bullied by others who exploited their knowledge of him and finally harassed him into submission until any attempt to re- tain self-respect was impossible and the last ray of decency was eS- tinguished."
 M. M. finally succeeded in scc ting away from the Foreign Legion. This he did as he described in the next paragraph:

LETTER TO PHILADELPHIA
MT. B. K. Wilbur, Philadelphia, Pa.

monds was defeated for renomina- ton from his Philadelphia District. The most discouraging aspect of our fight for fair fish laws, was the fact that this man was the rank ing member of the committee for the Merchant Marine and Fisheries, and thoroughly committed to the side of exploiting interests. The situation in Alaska is worse than ever before, on account of the ap- parent alliance between the Bureau of Fisheries and the trap interests.
 The law which gave MT. Hoover complete control of fisheries with out limitation wo uld be a good law if our public officials were free to do whatever the circumstances war rant, but these officials are be- holden to the large cannery and trap interests, and therefore they are not free. In side-stepping the issue of placing responsibility for the depletion of our fisheries as it relates to the kind of gear, to- wit: fish traps or seines, these of ficials state that they will not en- ter into the controversy whatever on the ground that it makes no diff ference how the fish are caught, since in any event the fish are dead. They continue the argument by saying that if all the fish are caught by seines or by traps our fisheries would be destroyed. Their business they say is the conserva- tion of fish by guaranteeing the escapement.
 These officials then promulgated rules to guarantee the escapement, and in every case the rules merely extend the restricted area an addi- tional distance from the mo uth of the creek, and as you know our seining grounds are altogether in this area. Consequently the seine catch is being reduced constantly, whereas the trap catch is undis- turbed. For example: my family's fishing ground is at Salmon Bay, North Prince of Wales Island. There my family has been able to make a living by catching three or four thousand red salmon each year, bringing us an income of about two thousand dollars. The big traps mile or so below our fishing ground, which catch the fish as they pro- ceed to the spawning grounds of Salmon Bay, catch during the same period of time something like three hundred thousand salmon. As a consequence Salmon Bay is con- sidered as an example of fishery depletion. Therefore the Bureau If Fisheries have closed Salmon Bay to fishing and driven my family from that District This guaranteed

 The local company will carry Ellis electric amalgamators and cyanide plants and the Ellis automatic grip sheave for rope powoer transmission, and the Ellis air ways.
 The local agency announces that it is the desire of the agency to serve it's patrons as sufficiently as possible and since so many of these mills have been erected around Seward and in Alaska, the company and the agency have come to the conclusion that a large supply of parts and supplies will be carried at Seward.

 COOK INLET CITY
FORMER RESIDENT SEWARD IS ACCIDENTALLY KILLED AT
 SELDOVIA, REPORT.

 Mrs. Simons left Seward a number of weeks ago for the Anchorage hos pital where news was forwarded to- day of the death of her brother No details were received of the acciden- tal death but according to the wire additional details aEe being forwarded to Seward by letter.
 William Lowell was quite well known in this city, and for the last several years has been making his home in the Cook Inlet country. It is understood another sister is re- siding in Tacoma. A brother, Albert, met his death in Lake Kenai some years ago.

NEILAN'S TESS
 BRINGS FAMOUS
 NOVEL )!1 TO FILMS
THOMAS HARDY'S WORLD-LOVED STORY AT LAST REACHES
 THE SILVER SCREEN.
Blanche Sweet Takes Lead
Featured Player Does Greatest Work Of Her Entire Career. In
 Title Role

Marshall Neilan's filming of Thos. Hardy's "Tess of the D'Urbervilles," :" which comes to the Liberty Theater tonight, brings to the screen one of the outstanding novels of all time.
 Neilan has transferred this tale to the screen as the author wrote it. He has retained all the power, all the appeal, all the beauty of the original. The young director, who has so many film successes to his credit, has invested the dramatic progress of the story with a pie torial beauty that adds to it's in terest, and the development of the plot is done in scenes that gratify the eye as well as grip the mind.
 Another advantage "Tess of the D'Urbervilles" has, is that the ex- terior scenes were photographed in authentic locations. Neilan made the rural episodes in the Hardy Wessex country in England, which enforces the drama by having the absolutely correct atmosphere.
 The only change from the orig inal Neilan made has been to ad- vance the time to the present day, which makes the story far more interesting for present day con- sumption. The director considers "Tess of the D'Urbervilles" to be a story fitting all time and con- sequently feels this is not. taking liberty.
 "Tess of the D'Urbervilles" tells story of country maiden in Wessex who falls victim to the brutality and passion of wealthy and interruptions young man. Later, Tess meets and marries the

man she really loves-only to be deserted by him when she con- fesses the truth about her unfortu- nate past Left alone in dire pov- erty and misfortune, Tess is again
 victimized by her original lover,
 who compels her to return to him, where she lives in lavish splendor. It is then that her husband, re- pentant too late, returns and preci- pilates the tragedy that follows. But the great love that Tess and her husband, Angel Clare, feel for each other is shown to live thru eternity.

coughing, loud talking close contact,

A GROWING Menace
CAMPERS

The nomadic race that we seem TO
be developing is fraught with consid-
cradle danger to the stay at homes
and also to those camp followers who
come along after a carrier of disease.
Thousands of people are constantly
en- the go; many Of them carry a camp
outfit and camp where night over
takes them. Every one Of them is
potentially dangerous. They have no
sanitary arrangements at vast ma
JOrity of the camps; they generally
seek a camp site with running water
II possible. Streams and wells are
liable TO become polluted from the
surface drainage. Especially Is there
danger from ali diseases that come
from human focal matter. Food left
scattered causes flies. and these seek
ing their natural element for laying
their eggs get communications and
bring them into our homes. We need
some kind of legislative measures to
control this menace to our health. If
all of our itinerants would observe the
given ny hOoSS dAl WOuld w VSAA5
but the sanitary laws as well as the
moral code are set at naught by many.
We believe that our Highway De-
Partment should Sc aside a sufficient
sum for the examining Of camp sites
and mark officially all places that
would meet the approval of the State
Board of Health. The regular road
men employed by the Highway De-
partment could be appointed as SAM
tary Inspectors and given the neces-
BaFY power to condemn any camp that
did not come up to the specifications
that would be promulgated by the
State Board of Health The State
Board of Health should pass the nee
essary rules and regulations to pro-
tect the citizens of Georgia and also
our itinerant visitors. We think that
this should be done Immediately.
AS protection to our passing guests
we should have sufficient and coDven-
tent water supplies along our import
ant highways, examined by the State
Board of Health and prominent signs
placed. certifying the water as being
good or bad.
In making this suggestion. we do so
realizing that our State Board Of
Health has no funds for this purpose,
but as stated above, we believe that
this too, could and should be borne
by the tay imposed on the sale OF
gas:
We respectfully suggest that the
Highway Department and State Board
of Health get together on a program
and that 10 time be lost We would
also like to urge upon our State Board
Of Health the necessity of promulgat-
ing rules for the conducting of mu-
nlcipal and for hire camps in Georgia.

duction released through producers
will come to Dudley's Tuesday.
The story deals with Grandad
Steele, who is considered the burden
of the household and IAN old fool"
because he is continually telling
yarns of his Civil War days. John,
his youngest grandson, the only one
who has any affection for the old
man, takes him to Texas when Johns
brother wants to put him in an as
YUM.
Granddad proves that although he
is old, he is mighty good buddy,
for he not only helps to capture q
band of smugglers but saves the girl
that John loves.
Here is a picture that promises to
be a real treat for it's atmosphere
lies not in lavish sets and atmosphere
but in a real story with real people.
An extremely capable cast has been
assembled. James Barrows has the
title role; Lloyd Hughes plays the
part of Johnny, Betty Francisco Is
his leading lady and Louise Fazenda

PHYSICIANS SHOULD LEAD
PROTECT THE INNOCENT.

Every time the Legislature meets,
someone introduces a bill about mar
rage. 1t is a subject that needs Sc
rious thought and mature considera-
ton. All WIG know anything about
the results Of the marriage Of those
mentally diseased say that they should
not be permitted to marry. Family
histories prove that many criminals
are descended from criminals.
We also have those marrying who
are infected with venereal disease.
This is great crime against our
daughters and not alone these dis
BASES, but others, such as the tuber-
cular.
We have given serious considera-
ton to this problem, and have come
to the conclusion that our physicians
should take the lead in the matter
At the next meeting OF our State Med
zeal Association. they should appoint
0 committee to draft bill that all
Of the physicians can get behind, en-
dorse and push. II they think neces-
sary, let them draft on their commit
tee some OF our best lawyers and min
listers. Every one who has the inter-
est Of his State at heart wants the
necessary safeguards thrown around
this sacred institution. We hope that
the president Of the State Medical As
ISOLATION will advocate this in lis an
nual address, and that the General As
sembly at its next session Will give US
q statute OF this subject that will be
Of service to the State and to future
