 John Josephs, watchman at the garage; opened the door to ] knock yesterday morning ani three men overpowered him. They covered him with pistols while two others climbed on board the truck and got it under way. The porter at the garage, known to Josephs only by the concise a..
 pellation Of John, emerged from a store room at that moment. He
 too was held up. The bandits tied the men, gagged them, de- posted them in stored automo-
 piles and waited fifteen minutes. At the end of that time they too
 departed in an automobile they had left at the door.
 When customers came in an hour later they freed Josephs and the porter, John, who gave such descriptions Of the five bandits as they could remember to the detectives of the Miller Avenue Station.

AN EDUCATIONAL CREED

Reprinted from the Alaska School Bulletin issued by the Territorial Commissioner of Education
 l believe in the school system of the United States of America as an institution of the people, for the people; conceived by the founders of this Republic; nurtured for near ly three centuries by our fathers; sustained today by the consent and support of all our citizens. I believe in free universal education, equal opportunities for all children, which guarantees our democracy within a Republic established upon the prin ciples of freedom, equality, justice, and humanity. I therefore believe it my duty to the school to love it. to help my neighbours child to have the same opportunity, and to defend the school against all enemies.-Dr J. J. Tigert, U. s.

Chicago Whenever John H. Git izen pClishes up the old family bus for a Sunday jaunt he makes it easier to heat his home next winter, unrelated as the two circumstances may seem.
 ''The oil burner provides a market for oil that is produced in the manu- fracture of gasoline" declared c. U. Williams, Bloomington, H., address, ing a gathering of motor sales men. When you sell a man a car you are making it cooler for him this summer, and warmer for him next winter. In making gasoline d great supply of fuel oil also is pro duced, and an il-burner designed to consume this cheap fuel thus heats a home economically and sue cessfully.
 ''In a half-miIIion homes of the United States oil heat already is in use, and indications are that 200, 900 more homes will be equipped before cold weather comes again.
 "Advance purchases of oil, and especially of the cheap fuel oil which can be used in some burners, arc far in advance of those reported for the same date last year, indicat- ing the rapid spread of oil heating Prices now are at the lowest figure of several years. If they go up al all late this fall it will be on ac Icount of sudden demand for oil by home owners who have delayed to, long in making their purchases"

STEWARDS FOLLY"
(From the Seattle P.-I.)

Observance of the sixtieth an niversary of the purchase of Alaska has been arranged for October 21 by the chamber of commerce.
 When William H. Seward, as secretary of state, proposed to pay Russian czar $7,2OOO,OOO for the Northern empire, he met in con- gress a blast as chilling as ever faced by sourdough on the tundra. But he ''mushed on' and won. The United States flag was raised iu Sitka on October IS, 1867
 Seattles annual trade with Alas ka now is several times the amount involved in the transaction once known as Stewards Folly"
 We are prideful of our modern material achievements, and rightly so. But it is fine exercise once in a while to forget them for the moment and pay honor to the vision and steadfast purpose of those of another day. We are only builders. They it was who supplied the material.

CONSERVATION OF SALMON IN
 ALASKA THIRTY YEARS AGO
By AHN-KUTTY By AHN-KUTTY

The tour of inspection stretched
 out to trips to Union Bays, An-An Creek, Ratz Harbor, Tolstoi Bay, Eagle Creek, Whale Passage, Stikine River (the mouth of Pillar Band and several lesser salmon regions. That summer no fences were erected in RatZ Harbor nor in Whale Passage.
 But two or three loads were taken
 out of Eagle Creek The season was one that ran nearly all fish streams full, Lake Bay especially,
 and there was no need to put in the number of fences originally
 planned. This flush season made it
 quite easy to show clean streams in
 most of the places. As the officials time to depart drew near and the visit to Lake Bay, after many post ponements, was next in order, either
 Mccullough had to quickly clear this wonderful fishing ground or the inspector had to be sidetracked The
 latter scheme was decided on. It
 happened that we were lying at AnAn Creek and the inspector was struck with the idea of visiting Lake Bay before returning to Wran-
 gell. This wasn't according to the scheme of things It was too sud den. At five it was decided that tho Arctic had to go back to Wrangeli to fix up a leaky boiler. But I drew
 the line here. I knew quite we'll that our visitor was not to sec Lake
 Bay. I was a party to the proposed
 deception insofar as keeping the
 wheels going around and showing the ship ahead on which ever course they cared to place her. But so far in the season had logged around
 10000 miles without incident nor accident. There had never been any delays in the vessels movements through machinery troubles and I
 didn't care, then, to log a mishap that hadn't occurred So I object ed. Fashion any excuse to go to the cannery that you may think of,
 l told the skipper, ''just so long as
 my end of the ship isn't involved.
 Of course l was wise to the fact
 that, right here, time was the big factor. The aim was to postpone this Lake Bay inspection to the last
 drawn minute. We went back to
 the cannery, with a very badly bent
 CD rudder stock. Had our guest
 been anything of a sailorman, he'd
 have tumbled to this bit of fraud, for the Arctic's rudder stock was of wood and six inches in diameter. But it worked. We arrived at the cannery, beached the steamer on the mud-f1ats, went through a lot of hokuspokus under her stern and after two or three tides We were ready for Lake Bay. It was SUD-

HARD TIMES
By Bruce Barton


 A gentleman, whose name is so we'll advertised that we need not mention it, has predicted that the United States is about to enjoy 100 years of uninterrupted prosperity.
 When that prediction was pub lished, I happened to be with man wise in these affairs.
 will there be hundred years of uninterrupted prosperity" asked.
 He shook his head.
 "Why not?"
 I expected him to show me a chart or say something about the business cycle" or economic fund amentals," or to use some of the other we'll worn phrases. But to my relief he took an entirely diff ferent approach.
 There will not be a cannery or uninterrupted good times, because the universe is not arranged on that basis,'' he said What is taking place on this earth is a great experi- ment in the development of human character. The Creator is not inter- ested in money or markets, but in more enduring men.
 Such men are not developed when everything is easy. They nev- CT come out of countries where the sun shines every day. Trials devel- op them; problems develop them; suffering develops them. As long as the present divine plans continue to operate, we shall continue to have enough setbacks to keep the race from growing altogether too soft"
 Years ago Roger Babson made a chart on which wavy lines repre- sented national prosperity and the other wavy line showed church mem bership. It was decidedly interest ing. When money rolls in too easi- ly and too long men drift away. not only from their churches, but from hard work and simple living; they form extravagant tastes; they take long chances.
 Then comes the panic Their easy wealth evaporates. Theu clear their lives of rubbish and start in again on the sound basis of econo- my, worship and work.
 Sometime the race may develop to point where it can stand pros perity all the time, but in our pre- sent state hard times have still their needed work to do.
 Ignatious, the grand old Bishop of Antioch, on his way to suffer martyrdom in Rome, sent this ring ing message to his younger col league Polycary, the Bishop of Smyrna:
 Be diligent. Be sober. Stand like beaten anvil."
 It is the men who stand like a beaten anvil" who have done the big things. But men can't stand like beaten anvils if they're made of French pastry. Or are wrapped up always in the gentle softness of prosperity.-From Red Book Maga- zine

PO0OO "y hoWS IhdI NANO U1AOu61 Il would have d fake camp up and all ready to receive company.
 Well, we steamed into some hole in wall that 1 had never seen before, nor have 1 seen it since. Sure enough there was a fish camp. A number of tents had been spread, seines were racked--on brand new racks, and drying in the afternoon sun, two big seine skiffs, with about 30OG salmon in them-the fish had been caught elseWhere-a number of canoes lying under dampened socks and canvas, on the beach and some IS or 20 native folk taking life easy. Mccullough was absent, but Montgomery, first lieutenant, was in charge. The southbound mail steam CT was due ill Wrangell early next morning, so the inspector didn't have any time to spare. He took a number of photographs, saw that there was no fence nor had there ever been one, jutted down lot memoranda in a sort of field book he carried bade the populace q cheery goodbye, and we pulled up our mud hook and churned out
 So far the visit of our official friend had been handled nicely. What the A. F. A. wanted him to see, he had seen. What they didn't desire any one to investigate, hadn't been investigated. And, still, the inspector was leaving the country with clear conscience until.
 Now, in all of our galvinating around the country our official friend had made the Arctic's engine room kind of idIing place The quart CTS were large, there was a big, comfortable lounge, and plenty of light So, as was his wont he came down and made himself comfortable directly after we got under way.
 With the worries of all this inspec- tion off his mind he became more loQuacious than usual Laying aside his field book that he had been look ing over, he remarked
 Well, always had an idea that Lake Bay was much larger and older camp than it appeared to be to me. was certainly surprised at it's smalIness and it doesn't seem possible that such little stream of water can supply so many sokoi salmon. Sorry that 1 had no more time to look the place over.'
 So he had doubts, after all There was lurking suspicion, somewhere that all wasn't right.
 But you didn't see Lake Bay" lurted out I don't really know just why but I got a deal of sport, at this stage of the performance, in tossing a monkey wrench into the smooth running machine that Me Cullough and Babbler had construct ed. The inspector turned to me with questioning eyes and a lower jaw dropping in sheer amazement
 '' I haven't been in Lake Bay, you mean?"
 Sure" I answered. 'I don't know where We were, myself but by the looks of surrounding country Il should judge we were some place On Prince of Wales Island, all right enough, but not within a dozen miles of Lake Bay.
 You don't know where we were, he repeated. "Not Lake Bay, Say-!n' He grabbed up the stuff he had lying around on the lounge and went up the iron steps out of the engine room, as if a derrick chain had a hold on him.
 Straight to the chart room he went, and later, when I was up onI the boat deck turning one of the ventilators I saw him and the skip per bent over charts and talkingl
