The eruption, late in August, of Megic volcano, on the Alaska Penin- sula across shelikoff strait from Ko- diak, is reported by Captain Harry Crosby, who returned to Seattle re- gently on the cannery ship Salmon King Thousands of tons of pumiee and ashes showered over a fifty mile area, it was stated. Crosby said: We were about 50 miles off the peninsula, in clear, still weather, when suddenly I noticed a puff at the top of Mount Megic. Soon the air was filled with volcanic ash and it began raining pumice stone. The volcano smoked like a factory chim- ney for five days. The eruption con- tinued and the mountain was still smoking when we left. Each morn ing the decks and rigging were GOV cred with fine powdered ash resem- bling snow"

WORD FROM WRANGELL
 PARTY N EUROPE
Mrs. Nick Nussbaumer Writes Home
 From Switzerland

The following excerpt from 8 let ter written by Mrs. Nick Nussbaum- CT at solothurn. Switzerland, under date of September 27. is typical of the letters written home by members of the WrangeIl party who are now touring Europe after attending the American Legion convention at Paris:
 We arrived here this afternoon and found letters addressed to Paris waiting here. We spent a week in Paris and then went to Nancy. France. then to strassburg. While there we crossed the Rhine river into Germany. Have seen lots of strange customs and places. Saw the battle fields of Verdun and Argonne For est which were quite a sight. Went to two noted theatres in Paris and saw enough to last us for quite awhile. Saw lots of ruins but the homes the French are building in their place are certainly nice. They are very much like American homes on the outside.
 We are here with Niek's folks, that is. Nick and I are. The rest of the party are at a hotel in town Nick is surely having a good visit It seems strange that I can't talk. might just as we'll be deaf and dumb. Have had a good time with a little girl here about Lois's size. She has taken up with me but thinks am a joke.
 "The country here is very pretty. We are not in the mountains yet. Nick and I called on Carl Stoekels father in Basic last night. The old gentleman was delighted to see us. It was his birthday and he was z years old"

DRY LAW TRIALS PROVING
 SEVERE ON VI0LATORS
Percentage of Convictions on the h.
 crease, Federal Report Indicates

WASHINGTON, D. C.-The per centage Of convictions in dry law trials, is steadily increasing. accord ing to data assembled by the United states Department of Justice for it's annual report. According to Dr. James M. Doran, prohibition com missioner, the percentage Of conyic- tions has risen from 68 to 7O1a per cent in the past fiscal year. The per eentage has increased for some years.
 Attributing the rise to better en- foreement work. and greater care in preparing cases, Dr. Doran cites statements of judges in widely sepa- rated cities who say that time for lenfeney in wet violations is past.
 pr. Doran cited the report of the annual judicial conference of the Senior Circuit Judges in Washing ton, under the chairmanship of Will liam H. Taft, Chief Justice of the United States, to support his view that dry cases are being speeded.

THE BUSINESS OF GETTING
AHEAD.

The head OF an employment agency
in New York recently told me that
the hest advice that he can give ~
beginners is to start with high-grade
concern.
Associations with shyster or dis,
reputable enterprises become part OF
the record OF an employe.
II business concern is well rated
and progressing, the mere question
Of size Is OF some Importance. Ere
auently there are special bars to prog
ress in small concerns. Nepotism
frequently exists---a system whereby
the best jobs are automatically dis
tributed to the near relatives OF the
owner. Even where this does not
exist, ownership and management are
usually one. whereas in the large cor
poration the meritorious employe
without capital can through sheer
merit rise to great heights.
business Grows with Him.
Sometimes business, is too small
for a big man, but usually II the
capable individual gets into place
NJ power In A small enterprise it Will
grow with him. However, able en-
plores In small enterprises frequently
find themselves blocked by narrow
minded superiors.
The chief advantage Of working for
small concern is the promise oil
being able to win partnership. In
earlier decades. when the bulk OF
American business was carried on by
small concerns. the ambitious en-
p1oye would ultimately set up in bust
ness of his own. Now that big husl-
ness has come increasingly to the
fore. even the ablest men are to an
increasing extent looking forward TO
a career as hired men.
In considering the relative advan-
tages of working for small enter
prise or q larger one, the possibility or
ultimately acquiring control OF small
business is important. There are
marked satisfactions in working for
Yourself. The experience liberates
new energies.
Winning Of Recognition.
In choosing between large and small
concerns the prospective employe
must recognize that each has its
dra VIDA cks and its compensations.
Recognition il usually more quickly
won in small concern. Advance
ment in a large enterprise may come
more slowly. but for men of eXtraor-
binary talent the ultimate rewards in
large corporation are likely to be
greater.
Charles H. Sabin, chairman of the
Guarantee Trust Co, once said to an
interviewer, in discussing the prob.
lem of where young person should
begin his career: He must first of all
be sure to hook up with concern
that is growing"
The preacher will say that real abil.
ity will win in anv environment.
There is an element of truth in that
platitude. but, in bringing human
services to the market place, 1t Ia best
