THE CITIZENS DUTY

One encouraging thing about this political
pagn is the Indication that a record vote will be
polled.
Everywhere there is deep interest in the politi-
cal situation. The Straw Votes piling up into
enormous totals. The issues are so important, the
careers of the two principle candidates fascinating
and coorful, that everything points to record
ber of voters Election Day.
Let hope each and will do his
her duty. Let try to make real showing this
year.
So often voters stay away from the polls because
of laziness Indifference! These absentee voters
are bad citizens. They are shirking an important
duty.
They cannot delegate their voting power to
someone else; they must appear personally to vote
or their political sympathes find no expression
If enough that might vote stay home the result
of the election may be entirely different than it
would be if they voted. Every single "X' mark
counts Don't fool yourself that your individual vote
means nothing 1t means great DEAL It may be your
one vote that will contribute much to a turn of the
tide in the election.
If like candidate, do not hamper his
chances by remaining away from the polls on Elec-
ton Day.
To the pos-everyone! Use your franchise Do
your duty as citizen.

SPEEDING UP THE BUSY BEE


What is becoming of good old-fashioned
adages and maxims?
''Busy as Bee has long been a byword. We
all brought up to regard with admiration the
business-lke, active of the bee. The bee
a model Of industry, virtue, sobriety Now must
face the fact that the bee is little better than loaf
er. Alas! Alas for youthful Illusions
DR.. Lloyd R. Watson, pursuing research work
at Cornell University that the supposedly
busy bee should be synonym for conscienti-
Gus toll.
The average bee, he says, works hard for
little while then knocks off for the day.
Dr. Watson is trying to "speed up" the bee
now reducing ideness in the hive
Well, we hope he succeeds If he can get the
bees to work hard, we may not have to go to the
trouble of thinking up a new maxim!
Anyway, many persons who have spoken about
being as "busy as bee spoke the truth even though
thew NAV have thought they WE'RE lying!

1. Gritty surface-which affords rubber tires
a grip, even in wet weather.
2. Pleasing Color-which night outlines not
only the road but also any object in your path.
3. Low CroVvn--Sshich makes the road almost
level crosswse and does away with the dangerous
"center-of-the-road" driving.
Thru crowded city streets, and open country roads
concrete gives sense of safety which adds much to
the joy of motor travel.

GUTHRIE RESPONDS

Speaking with deep feeling, Captain Guthrie responded, saying he could not express how much he appreciated the gifts, not from the standpoint of value, but of the good will, friendship and spirit which prompted them. Though lie has been here for two years, he said there wasn't very much he could say "as I leave,' explaining that every day that he has been here he has freely expressed his views and attitude toward Alaska.
 He then spoke of the similarity of the days spent in Nebraska when a boy; of the spirit and feeling of those pioneer days. akin to Alaska The pioneer wilderness of Alaska had al ways appealed to him, and for years he had wanted to come, Many other officers wished this post, he said, in fact many of the oldtimars in the service are anxious to come here. He added that it is probably the most preferred post outside Tientsin, China.
 While on duty in the States, he heard marvellous fish stories from out the North. He believed ihem all. But now that he has been here he is more apt to believe them then ever before. So with all this background he was, in a sense. prepared in ad- vance for what he would find here.
