VALDEZ YOUTH ALREADY HAS NUMBER HOURS IN
 AIR ID HIS CREDIT

I'm Irish, not a Swede! Further more, I have never even seen Sel- dovia," exclaimed Bill Egan, under treatment at the Seward General Hospital for a dislocated shoulder, upon calling at The Gateway office today to help keep the records straight.
 "All know about Seldovia is that all the fish for the world is packed in those parts and that it is also famed for it's good looking women," Bill added. i've lived at Valdez all my life and we will yet see the day when skyscrapers will pierce Valdez clouds"
 Bill is a brother to Alaska Egan, former member of The Gateway staff, who has been at Oakdale, Calif., for several years past, where he is rapidly gaining a reputation as top-notch newspaperman. The Egan family is one of the best in the Valdez district.
 Bills ambition is to become li- censed airplane pilot and it won't be long before this ambition is at tained for he has already had many hours of solo flying to his credit. He plans to return home on the next steamer.

THE NATIONS POWER

While in high places in the councils of the nation ugged with theorems of political economy and program nine from the moreatesized Western town of Des Moines, Iowa. fed 350,000 meals to the hungry.
 Within few days these daughters of the Old West the subject of the bes and rdicule of the eete East reached back and resurected from the safety deposit of halowed history the traditions which their forbears had builded that great nation lying west of the Appaa chanS.
 The system under which they worked was like that when the praires first peoped by the poneer and man leaned upon and the of one the of all; when the cooling hands of sainty soothed the fevered brow taking turn about in serving without thought of pay; when those yoemen of the soil tldged miles toassist neighbor to barn. clear a field and build fence.
 And while the movement of feeding the hungry was led by this small group of Women rich and poor work ing side by sde the little tradesmen inspired by the heroic and worthy labor reached down and gave of their and stocks of food in the spirit of brother love their ancestors had given to those struggling to gain foothold when Iowa was young.
 Truly Kipling has said: "For the East is East and the West is West and never the twain shall meet"
 The dry rot undermining the Atlantic coast is like that of decaying forest It is born of divorcement of the human traits found nowhere superior to those of the Vest Like wave which has spent itself against cliff it necessary for the West to lash back the East and teach it the way to survive the only principles which may sustain nation-those embodying brothery sympathy and the old traditions, not overlooking the Biblical answer to Gaines question: "Am my brothers keeper?"

Optimist
By ALINE MICHAELIS
The Richest House

The Richest House
This little house is very bare
And very poor and old,
Its tenants live on meagre fare
And suffer cold.
Sometimes a passer feels con.
Germ
For those who dwell inside,
And wonders if they do not
yearn
For wealth denied.
Oh, eyes that stare and do
not see,
Oh, heart that holds no
dreams,
Yours is the house Of poverty
And where no joy CLEANS!
This little house is very cheap
And very dim and small;
Yet here peace Iulls to happy
sleep
And faith cheers all.
And here dwell love and song
and mirth
And every kindly grace;
Perhaps the richest house on
Earth
Is this poor place!

When Manners
Are Correct
By MRS. BEECKMAN
Invitations

Lear Mrs. Beeckman: I have
just moved here, where there
are a number of wives whose
husbands work for my husband.
invited them all over one even
ing informally, not very long
ago. Since that time I have
not heard a word from any one
of them. Am I correct in as
suming that I have done the
right thing? And am correct
in feeling that it is now their
turn to call on me, or invite us
to their homes? Due to our
position, am especially anxious
that they do not think that I
am indifferent in any way.
READER.
You have done your part, and
most graciously you have made
the first gesture. 1t was very
hospitable of you and thor
oughly correct to invite these
women to your home, and you
are right in thinking that now
the next social gesture should
come from them.
