Who first called Boston "the Hub
of the Universe?
This humorous appellation, pop
ularly applied to Boston, originated
with Oliver Wendell Holmes in THE
Autocrat of the Breakfast Table:
Boston Statehouse is the hub of
the solar system. You couldn't pry
that out of a Boston man if you had
the tire of all creation Strengthened
out for a crowbar."
How were the markings of the
Fahrenheit thermometer arrived
at?
Fahrenheit arrived at the mark
ings of his thermometer by taking
the point reached by mixture OF
ice water and sal-amoniac as zero.
The second point he determined by
mixing water and ice, which he
called 80, the freezing point. His
third point, blood heat, was taken
by placing the thermometer under
the armpit of healthy man. He
then divided the distance between
the melting point of ice, 80 degrees,
and the boiling point of water, 212
degrees, into $50 degrees, or 'half
the number Of degrees in a circle.

Evidence of Wedlock

A dancer, called a witness in divorce suit at
New York, testified that she always had supposed
that a man and woman appearing on the vaudeville
bill with her were married.
Why did she suppose so? Had they called one
another endearing names and seemed devoted to each
other? Well it was partly that; but the thing that
convinced her was the fact that they fought contnu
ally that the man frequently beat the woman and
that the two we're forever having some kind of 2
scene"
There, if you please is a lovely comment on our
modern life. If we have reached the point where
marriage can be recognized by the discord it pro-
duces, we are indeed in bad way.

JAMES C00NEY

At two o'clock in the afternoon of September 2Sth. James Gooney. a naz tiFe citizen Of Nrangel, departed this life. James gooney was one of Wrangellss oldest citizens. and no native man in this region has held .a higher rating in honesty and kind Illness Of disposition than he; with kind word for everybody as he went quietly about his simple tasks in Life. it was not surprising to know thaI his last words were a prayer for the blessings of peace upon his fellow citizens. natives and whites alike. From the date of his conversion to Christianity under the ministry Of Dr. s. Hall Young. James gooney tried to exemplify his new faith for the upbuilding of the younger gen eration of natives. believing that in righteous living was their only hope of successful continuance as a peo= pie.
 James Cooney saw the first Ameri- can flag raised in Wrangell. He asked many questions as to what it all meant, and on being told what a flag signifies and what this one es= pecially represented. he. a compara= lively young man, whole-heartedly accepted the new Government and urged it's acceptance upon his fellow natives. At an early date he came into possession of a flag. and throughout his long life he treasured it. keeping it ever in plain view Of all who entered his humble dwell ing. When the great war came on and he learned that his own country was engaged, by word and by money contribution he lent what support he could, often expressing the wish that he was a young man so that he might follow his flag in the cause of world freedom. Though lacking the advantages of education, such as the younger generation of natives so generally enjoy today James Cooney's thinking and judgments pertaining to matters of public well fare can scarcely be said to have been surpassed by the positions held by any of his race. James Cooney's age cannot be definitely determined. but he was at least eighty-five years old. Donald Austin, Mrs. Charlie Boreh and Richard Boreh are the close of kin, locally, who mourn the departure of this gentlemanly old native man.

LOND0N-Speaking at Birming- ham Ramsay Macdonald in the La bor party's annual rally prior to it's general conference, delivered a sharp attack upon the Conservative govern ment for putting obstacles in the way of disarmament, making reser- vations to limit the effectiveness of the Kellogg anti war pact and re- verting to secret diplomacy in the Anglo French naval agreement.
 The former Premier of the Labor party demanded that Prime Minister Baldwin publish immediately not only the text of the Anglo-French pact but also the text of all letters and notes which passed between the governments in negotiating it, so the British public might know exact ly what the treaty pledged the eoun- try to do.

MAJOR #CARRUTHERs
{ Juneau =Empirep

While it will please his many friends in Alaska that the abilities and faithfulness in Christian service of Major Carruthers. commander of the Alaska Division of the Salvation Army, have been recognized and that he has been rewarded with a com mission to command in the populous Province of Manitoba, the regret that he and Mrs. Carruthers will cease to be residents of Alaska is general. Major Carruthers is a strong char acter and his work here, especially among the Indians, has been faithful and fruitful It is repeating the ob- vious to say that he has made many friends among those of all classes in this section.
 That Major Carruthers will make good in his larger, if not new. field goes without. saying. He has the ability and the earnestness of pur- pose to make good in whatever he undertakes. The loss to Alaska will be a gain to Winnipeg, for Major Carruthers is one of those who make good citizens in whatever commun- ity their lots may be cast.
 The we'll wishes of many, many friends will accompany Major and Mrs. Carruthers to their old home in Winnipeg, and the wish that he might again come to Alaska, if not to serve then to visit, is everybody's.
