Some men work for power,
Some men work for fame,
Some men keep on working
Because they like the game;
Some men work for health's
sake,
Some to show their grit
Most men work because they'd
Starve if they should quit.

Church Notes
DAY ar LOCAL CHURCH
GOES OVER BIG.

Last Sunday was Women's Day at
ST. Peter A. M. E. church. The Sun
day before the men of the church had
observed their annual Mems Day.
On the past Sunday the church was
crowded at three services as the wo.
men showed the men how a big day
should be put over in great style.
An excellent program was given
at all three services. The women out
stripped the men in the raising of
money. The weather might have had
something to do with 1.-THE women
deny that emphatically On Mems
Day it rained while the sun was
bright last Sunday as the women led
by Mrs. Fannie Pierre Lewis carried
the day.
Very helpful in putting over the
financial part of the program were
Mrs. Eva L. Abbey, Mrs. Mamie King,
Mrs. VIM. Modem and Mrs. J. A. Alex
ander who presided well at the col
lection tables.
Principal speakers of the day were
Mrs. Olivia Lewis who delivered a
well prepared and delivered sermon
at the morning hour. Mrs. j. Bon
ner, Of Kansas City, who substituting
for Mrs. Lillian Parkinson made
very appropriate talk and Miss L. O..
Smith who thrilled auditors at the
night services with an address on
Woman's Day. A pantomine present
ed by IA little girls in the evening
directed by Mrs. Rhoda Lee Escue
was one of the features of the eve-
ming services also.
1t was some day for the women of
the church and the men enjoyed it
fully as greatly, as did the women
despite the fact that the women
raised omre money than the males.
One gentleman pointed out that the
money raised by the women came
out of the mems pockets just the
same" Everybody was well pleased
by the rivalry exhibited by both
groups. Rev. John A. Alexander, St
Peters pastor, praised both groups
highly.

 First, we went to No Name creek it's riches for to find. And all we found were mosquitoes and one old porcupine. Next we went to Flat Creek it's riches to unfold; twas by Brunn's tree we found it in the form of heavy gold. Mike and Ivor were across the creek; Shorty was close by Cation jumped round like a fly as he banned his dirt and poeketed his gold and thought him self quite sly.
 Along came Peacock with his dogs, he had quite a bunch. He looked us over and lightly smiled as we asked him in to lunch. In came Hyland's pack train. It brought us in our mail. Cation, Mack and Lafayette they took the outbound trail and of the original party there are left now only four. But we four wll make a stake in the Cassiar or leave it never more!

CALIFORNIA FRIENDS

MT. and Mrs. Robert E. Durr of OXnard, California, were guests of MT. and Mrs. w. J. R. Reed while the Prince George was in port Sun day afternoon. They were delighted with Wrangell, and though they had made the Alaska trip on the recommendation of friends, they said the trip far surpassed their ex- pectations. Wrangell, particularly, appealed to them, and they said they had never seen anything lovelier than the view of Wrangell Harbor from where the Prince George was berthed at the dock. Mir. Durr is a banker at Oxnard, and is friend of Mrs Reeds brother who lives in Oxnard.

"The outlook is bright" says Michael Dederer, sales manager. MT. Wagner is eminently success full. The new capital will help us enlarge .our facilities. More aud more buyers will be attracted. More and more furs will be graded and displayed to better advantage for selection and increased patronage. As the market improves, the Seat tie Fur Exchange will present a very inviting picture to buyers as we'll as to those shippers who wish to obtain top prices at all times"

 the logical United States port and is, through the Seattle Fur Ex- change, closely connected with eastern markets. It can be said that the establishment of the "Ex- change" has greatly helped to con- meet Alaska and her fur products with the great fur consuming cen ters of the world. Now amply cap italized, plans will go forward to enlarge warehouses and offices, in turn to attract and accommodate more buyers. It is the ambition of the Exchange" to make it the one and only clearing house for furs from Alaska and all northwestern territories
 Mr. Henry Wagner's entrance into the business is a distinct gain for this territory. His experience covers 35 years, almost his entire business career, and his acquaint- anceship and business connections are found throughout the world. He is and has always been active in the fur trade in Hamburg, Leip- zig, London and New York. He has spent twelve years in Japan, China, Manchuria, Mongolia, Kamchatka annd eastern Siberia. His knowl- edge of furs, his wide, acquaintance, his thorough cognizance of world markets and conditions will com- pine to the ultimate profit and earnings of the Seattle Fur Ex- change and it's shippers.
