SGT. BRICE, FROST VICTIM.
DIES VANCOUVER HOSPITAL

90. Thomas Crozier Brice, aged
40, of the Royal Canadian Mounted
Ponce, who suffered frozen feet in
February while on Lizard patrol,
DIED recently in the Vancouver Gen.
eral hospital. Death followed an
operation for stomach ailment.
"hiie patrolling his beat in zero
weather, Sergt. Brice became snow
bnnd and both of his feet were
frozen. Fearing gangrene, he oper-
ated on himself with an old knife,
seVerlng two toes on his right foot.
When assistance reached him he
was removed to Carmacks, Yukon,
where more toes on both feet were
cut off.
Sergeant Brice was flown out
from Carmacks TO Carcross with
Inspector T. V. Sandys- Wunch of
the K. G. M. P. in February. He
went to Vancouver by boat and was
removed to the General Hospital
where it was found necessary to
amputate more of his toes.-White-

A QUIZ ON WORDS

In a recent QUESTIONABLE sent to
a number of eminent persons ii
was asked: What word seems to you
most annoyingly oyerused or mis-
used?"
Among those suggested were:
Intrigued, kiddies, cute, gorgeous,
awful, very, sure, nice, grand,
glamorous, colorful and l.
Another question was: what
word in English seems to you most
beautiful in sound?"
Replies included the following:
Mother, love, violet, lake, laughter,
willow, melody, and 1. A we'll
known educator voted for payday,
with which most teachers will
agree, while a Mexican poet liked
the sound of cuspidor best.
In answer to the request to pick
the most useful word in the Ian
guage, these were suggested: No,
yes, the, of, and, in, it, is, have,
do, and l. An editor thought eat the
most useful.
1t may be observed that the pro-
noun | was selected in answer to all
three questions, and a prominent
physician declared it to be at once
the most beautiful, the most useful
and the most annoyingly overused
of all words. Many of our readers
will probably agree.

books now, and pencils. and home
made desks. Wonderful desks! The
kind our forefathers cut their
names in and got strapped for their
attempt to make their mark in the
world at SO early an age. OF course
five Riddles are crowded at a desk
which should at best do service for
| three, but what is that? The walls
are now clean, and sunny curtains
adorn the windows and altogether,
1 love my little school room.
] First Christmas Tree
Our Christmas was great. The
| first Christmas tree held in our
fair city took place on Christmas
! Eve followed by an impromptu pro-
gram and refreshments well served.
The whole affair was lovely. The
previous evening our entertainment
took place, and being of a sacred
have it on the same night at the
I tree. The kiddies did the Shepherd
scene in costume with song and
scripture recitation, also the Wise
Men grouped about the Manager,
and then at the close the shining
angels and drab-coated shepherds
Justify sang Joy to the World"
Later on a sixty-five foot flagpole
was erected with the aid of every
man, woman, child and pup in the
municipality"
Besides the teaching of eighteen
day school pupils, the Captain has
diligently carried on a night school
for the older young people, who
have been deprived of earlier oppor
/ tunity of attending school, and for
all others who wish to improve
their education.
Nursing Service
Not less important than the
teaching has been the nursing of
the people. The Captain is a grad
attending to the many demands
made upon her in this connection
whether maternity, measles, boils
or broken bones. Her nursing work
has been seriously hampered be-
cause of the need of a small cottage
hospital. The physician responsible
for the Mas River medical work
has a coast line of seventy-five
miles to cover and consequently is
rarely available owing to distance
and weather conditions.
Captain Kenny has worked de-
votedly and conscientiously, never
complaining of the hardships she
has faced, many of which would
deter strong men, but ever counting
it a privilege and honor to serve
where real service is needed. She
says her people are second to none
and that they have no home brew
behind the scenes. She pays trib-
ute to the work of other mission
aries working in other places along
the Mas valley.

WINNIPEG BABIES WON'T BE
WRAPPED IN NEWSPAPER.

WINNIPEG, Canada-Let no one
in Winnipeg ever again fear babe
will die of exposure here, for lack
of clothing at least. In response to
an appeal for infants layettes,
made early in the year by certain
social agencies, yeritable deluge
of baby garments has poured into
official welfare groups.
Touched to the heart by the state
ment that 1.-The spring crop of ba-
bies among the needy would go
wrapped in newspapers" women's
organizations have been busy stitch
ing garments since the first of the
year until there are no longer ba-
bies enough to use them all. The
child welfare department of the
provincial government has enough
layettes on hand to take care of
the normal demand until next fall.

Salvation Army Girl Teaches, breaches,
And Nurses Sick In Lonely Indian Village

i out year after year, but to find one
willing to live SO far from white
! association and in such an isolated,
! though beautiful spot, was difficult.
! There is but one mail a month dur
| ing the six months of winter, and
even this is uncertain due to the
storms which sometimes sweep
across the country. However, so in
sistent were the people in pleading
for a teacher that two years ago,
| Staff Captain ]. Acton succeeded in
securing the permission of the Sal
walton Army leaders to appoint Cap
tain Alice Kenny as teacher and
nurse to the villagers.
Already the Captain had given
devoted service for two years as
teacher at the Salvation Army Day
School at Glen Vowel, British Col
umbia, among the Natives there, as
well as several years in charge of
the Native work at Petersburg, AL
aska, where she endeared herself to
the people through her self-sacri-
ficing work, especially in the con-
Quoting of day nursery for the
small children and babies of Ma
tives working in the shrimp can
merry.
Isolated Spot
For six months of the year, it is
impossible to get any freight up the
Mas river, and as Staff-Captain
Acton reached Canyon City with
Captain Kenny in October, 1880,
her first winter there is one she
will never forget, but about which
there has never been a murmur.
The cold blasts of winter winds
whistled through the crevices in
the walls of the old cabin in which
she lived. No boards could be Sc
cured in the village and to keep
from freezing the intrepid little
captain made bread dough and fill
ed as many of the cracks as pos
sible The hospitable and apprecia-
tive Natives scurried around and
each found some ueful household
article for their teacher and nurse,
but when they had done their best,
an old table, a tin heater and one
or two old chairs constituted the
of the home, SO she was
left to face the winter amid the
age-blaGkened walls and without
many things which the average
housewife considers absolutely nee
essary. Never hero faced difficulty
more bravely than did this little
woman.
natn xfyh Idif I'D hU q
white woman officer, MRS. Acton,
the Last white woman she has now
seen for nine months), the captain
was rejoicing over the arrival of
a small cook stove for burning wood
only, as she had been trying to cook
her food on the top of the tin heat
er for a year. Such things as table
cloths, roast pans, or even a rolling
pin, which most housekeepers take
for 81 anted were still unknown lux
uries in the missionary teachers
home, but still no complaint.
Five to Desk
In writing of her little school
room a few months after her arriv-
al, the captain said, "Our school
room is transformed. 1t = is not at
all like the little old bare, untidy
room, where a bakers dozen of lit
tie Natives squashed into a church
pew while I held forth on the sub
iects of Tom Tinker, and the pro-
verbal little Red Hen at a black
board of tar paper and little hunk
of pink chalk more precious than
gold. The tar paper still does its
duty right valiantly, but there are

Staff Captain ]. Acton, division
al commander of the Salvation
Army in Alaska and northern Brit
ish Columbia, solemnized the mar
riage of Captain Alice Kenny and
Envoy John Foster on Tuesday
June 81, at Prince Rupert. Mr.. and
Mrs. Foster left after the ceremony
for Canyon City on tn Mas river
where the bride has been stationed
for the past two years.
The fortitude and heroism dis
played by Captain Kenny at her
lonely missionary post, prompted
the Sentinel to ask Staff Captain
Amy Acton to write an article re-
garding the work of Captain Kenny,
who became acquainted with a
number of Wrangell residents
while she was stationed at Peters
burg. Mrs. Acton consented and
wrote the following article:
Near the head of the beautiful
Mass river there can be found the
remnants of an old historical Indian
village called Gwinaha. There is
music in the name which means,
"Oh, how lovely" The picture of
the little village lying caressed by
the luxuriant foliage in the cradle
of the Mass valley calls forth from
the lips of the observer exclama-
lions of delight. Unfortunately, the
former residents of this village
found to their dismay, one sunny
spring morning, that due to the
heavy snowfalls on the mountain
concurrent with the breaking up of
the ice in the river, their little
homes were flooded This meant
that to avoid recurrence of such
an event they must leave Gwinaha.
They moved just a few rods further
up the river on an elevated piece
of land, to reach which one must
climb up several natural steps of
rock.
Totem Foundation Posts
One would need the tongue of
Demosthenes, the pen of Aristotle
or the brush of Dore to describe the
picture which gladdens his eye as
he reaches the top of the cliff. Per-
haps the huge international flag of
the Salvation Army would be the
most conspicuous object as it is the
largest flag of its kind in the world.
Many feet below rushes the Mas
river through the mighty canyon
from which the new village deriv-
ed its name, Canyon City" Then
one sees the neat and serviceable
Salvation Army Citadel, surrounded
by the orderly avenues of Native
homes, each painted white, and
made more charming because of the
gardens of flowers and vegetables.
Unlike most Indian villages no to-
TENS are visible, as those which
were in the village previously were
cut down and used for foundation
posts for the Citadel when it was
erected three year ago.
The people have high ideals of
morality. No Intoxicating drinks
or even tobacco are allowed in the
village. There has been no inter
marrying with the white races and
consequently a better race of peo-
pie is the result.
Plead For Schools
For some time, the work of this
place had been carried on success
fully by one of their own race, a
Nishga Salvationist, but the great
difficulty was that there was no
school, If the parents wished their
children to have school privileges
they had to send them away. Urgent
appeals for a teacher had been sent
!. .
