stances the money saved will be in
excess of that needed for the trip.
The legionnaires have accumulated
their savings in devious ways, other
than their everyday occupation. In
an eastern city the veterans collected
the waste paper from the homes and
sold it for Paris convention expenses.
veteran living in the city has quite
chickenS farm in his back yard and
eggs and poultry raised there have
netted him considerable cash. Still
other veterans attend filling stations
or take part time work after hours to
earn money sufficient to carry them
to France.
The France convention committee of
the legion realized early in the move
ment that an opportunity must be
afforded the> veterans, that so desired,
to save. In the principal cities of the
United States one bank was desig-
mated as the official depository of the
American legion savings club with the
approval of the local legion post of
that city. A campaign of information
was then started to induce the veterans
to save in small or large amounts for
the Paris pilgrimage.
Arrangements were made for the
veterans reservation to be made when
he had accumulated $50 and the money
remain in the bank drawing interest
until a date near the time for sailing.
Upon request of the veteran the bank
sends in a transfer certificate to the
France convention committee in lieu
of the actual cash for the down pay
ment on a reservation. While many
veterans took advantage of the various
American legion savings clubs others
retained their accounts already started
in other banks or carried additional
Christmas savings to cover the cost
of the France Journey.
Among the half a thousand banks
that are official repositories of the
American legion saving clubs is one
in Honolulu, Hawaii, in which a good
ly sum is on deposit from veterans.
Some 26 reservations, including those
of four women, have been received from
Hawaii These legionnaires must
travel almost 10000 miles one way to
reach gay Paree. They will land in
California after the long sea voyage
from the islands, cross the continent
and then jump off in the regular move
ment for France.
An attractive travel folder giving
the rates, plans and official informa-
tion concerning the Paris trip is
ready for distribution This folder
may be obtained by writing either to
the department France convention Of
ficer Of your state or to the France

quarters, the American legion, Indian

REVIEW
SHOWS RAILS AT
new HIGH LEVEL

NEW YORK, Feb. 19 (P.-A sensa-
tional rally in railroad stocks, which
carried them to the highest general
level since 1910, a perceptible slowing
up in new security offerings, and an
easing of call money rates to the low
est level since last June were the high
spots in this weeks financial markets.
Trading in stocks showed marked
expansion in volume, due to the in
Grease in public participation, but
bonds sales fell off materially
Rumors of further new alignments
in. the railroad field, coupled with ex-
pectations of favorable dividend de-
velopments, provided the background
for the widespread speculation in the
shares of the country's transportation
systems. The general price average of
the rails was lifted to the highest level
since in 1910 while the average of 20
leading industrials closed tonight
within five tenths of one point of the
record high established last December.
Time and commercial paper rates were
unchanged. Despite the apparent ple-
thora of funds available for stock mar
ket purposes due in part to the recent
accumulation of gold shipment from
Europe and the reduction of over $780,
100000 in brokers' loans during the
year, no perceptible softening of money
rates is looked for in Wall street,
where hopes have practically been
abandoned for an early cut in the New
York federal reserve rediscount rate.
The principal commodity markets
moved within extremely narrow limits
during the week. Cotton and wheat
were practically unchanged, while cof-
fee and sugar futures showed slight
recessions.

Coast Guard Picket
Boat Is Being Driven
Ashore By High Waves

PROVINCETOWN, Mass, Feb. 10
R,-Engines and wireless disabled
and rolling in mountainous seas
churned by 5O-mile gale, the coast
guard picket boat 23S was being
slowly driven toward shore tonight
despite two anchors overheard three
miles northeast of High Light, on
the tip of Cape Cod here.
The 23S, carrying a crew of sevenl
men including her commander, Boat
swain r. X Rivenback, made known
her plight soonN after dusk by
blinker signals to the highland coast
guard station. The shore crew was
poworless, however to do more than
notify base five at Boston. Launch
ing a surf boat in the boiling seas
was out of the question and the
helpless picket boat was too off
shore to reach with beach cannon
and breeches buoy line. The coast
guard cutters Redwing and Tus-
carora were dispatched under forced
draught from Boston to the 2SS's
aid and coast guardsmen here felt
that they could reach the scene be-
fore the picket boat dragged too
near the beach.
The Highland crew was standing
hy ready OF run down to the shore
with the beach cart should the bat~
tereH crafts anchors let go, and
those on shore were being kept in
formed of conditions on the boat by
the winking signals.

ABOUT ALASKAN ADVERTISING.

The Post-Intelligencer intimates that there is too much advertising of Alaska a tourist attraction to the exclusion of advertising it as a land of great resources and potential develop ment. Perhaps, but it must not be forgotten that the tourist advertising brings direct results while most of the development comes through other sources than advertising. The investor comes here to investigate specific propositions that are presented to him by those seeking capi- tai He rarely comes as a result of news stories or general advertising.
 Furthermore, tourist advertising frequently is the indirect cause of the development of re- sources. It brings tourists or big game hunters who become interested in the country and either return to develop some opportunity that has come under their notice they invest money with someone or concern that already is developing something That has occurred frequently in All aska Just as California tourists have remained in that State, and aided it to become great, former Alaska tourists among our best de- velopers

The Revolutionary Wars Turning Point.
tNew York Times )


 It is fting that the Saratoga celebration should be the climax of the years anniversaries, just as it was the climax of the campaign or 1777 It is customary to regard the three encount- CTS of Oriskany Bennington and Saratoga as part of the same movement. The defeat of the British General Burgoyne and his aides at these three places-a defeat which sealed at the Battle of Saratoga early in October-marked the turning point of the Revolution British hopes of controlling the Hudson Valley and thus cutting off New England from the rest of the States were finally shattered. What is perhaps even forces was a deciding factor in influencing the French to recognize the United States and to furnish active aid in the conduct or the war The year had opened inauspiciously for the Americans, with enthusiasm for the Revo- mton at low ebb, with Congress impotent, albeit verbose and with funds practically un- obtainable Abroad the French and Dutch sym pathizers with the Revolutionary were hav- ing a hard time to convince the leaders that there was even chance of American success
 Saratoga coming just before Winter set it, was from the strategical point of view, inn portant that it showed England's enemies in Eur ope that help to the revoutionsts might well embarrass England, and that there were ex- cellent prospects of ultimate victory In the United States the morale of the public was raised and the guiding hand of General Wash ington who had by his irmness and devo- tion borne most of the task of keeping up the spirits of the patriots, was strengthened, and he was enabled to turn to campaigns elsewhere The historical pageant at Sartoga is sched- iuled for October S. This happens also to De 1 "Governors' Day" and it is hoped that the Governors of the original States will join with Governor Smith in commemorating New York's role in the Revolution. The occasion is one which is expected to attract upward of hundred thousand visitors. It deserves nation wide recogni- tion

Just What Is Service.
(New orleans Times-picayune. ]

tNew Orleans Times-P -Picayune)
 We hear lot about service these days but see very little of it-so little, in fact, that it has tangible significance in the mind of the average person.
 Just what has been said about Service With Smile" that one might be forgiven for reply ing Mat service is exchanging merchandise for dollars and throwing h grin"
 It is really much more than this, however.
 It has been pointed out that the very best example of service may be obtained at the gaso- line filling station; you drive up and ask for five gallons of gas. You not only get the five gallons of gas, but you get fresh air, water in your radiator directions to the correct road to take from that point on, and such little extra attention as having your windshield, radiator cap and gasoline line. gauge dusted by smiling young man in white coat who politely but firmly declines the proffered tip for the service. This is service; giving just little more than you are paid for and something that the recipient does not ask or expect, but which peases him be- cause of its very unexpectedness and makes him waht to do you service in return and will, for this reason, bring him back at some future time.
