JUDGE LESTER Q. GORE AND

Mr-aad Mrs.-L Lestef--0 Gore and children are outgoing pas sengers today aboard the NJ. 5. North Star of the Office of India1 Affairs bound for Seattle, enroute to their former hame at Ketchi- kan. in southeastern Alaska.
 MT. Gore, who has been Federal Judge of the District Court here, for the Second Judicial Division. obtained a leave of absence which permits him to leave aboard this vessel. His business interests in lsoutheastern Alaska demand his presence there as soon as possi- ble.
 Recently Judge Gore telegraph ed his resignation to the Depar< ment of Justice. and subsequently, new Judge was appointed by President Roosevelt. In lieu of the fact that MT Morrison. the newly appointed Judge, has not arrived at Nome, it was necessary for Mir. Gore to obtain a leave Of absence from his position at Nome, lin order to take this trip outside, However, it is expected that some l definite information as 10 when ! the new Federal incumbent will arrive here, will be received very shortly,

Fmuch of the civic life of the com munity, the absence of Mir. and Mrs. Gore from Nome will leave a mark which will long be remem- bered
 Coming from Southeastern Alas ka to occupy the position formerly filled by the late Judge c. J. Lo- men, Mir. Gore discovered many Nomeites who at one time or an. other had been associated with his life in Ketchikan. his home city. l0f fine, upright characters, with principles of the pioneer Alaskans at heart, MT. and Mrs: Gore were
 enthusiastically welcomed to Nome. During their stay here they engaged in the life of the com munity to a great extent All of their close friends and acquaint- , ances have, nothing but pIpise to offer as tribute to a fine friendship and helpful citizens.
 During the period of Judge Cores occupancy of the Bench at Nome, his foresight and deep quality of understanding and judg- ment have been reflected many times. His clear and impartial at titude during times when legal at 1 fairs were before his bar, has done much to mold the law-abiding citizens of Nome in lines of mu- tual understanding and philosophy.
 As a jurist serving Nome Mir, Cores term of office will be long
 remembered, and il is assuredly he wish and hope of everyone that both MT and Mrs Cores andt their ehildren's voyage to Seattle and Ketchikan will -ma~kca by
 good fortune and happiness.

Our fields and gardens have again
been freshened by showers. Little
do most of us realize. here in our
habitat of plenty, what havoc and
chaos the absence of water can bring
about. Nearly all the people in the
rural and most in the urban locali-
ties can obtain the best of drinking
water by merely spending an atom
of energy upon a force pump; yet.
host of us still complain about the
mosquitoes. mOles in our lawns, and
other minor trivialities. What if
even the water for our automobiles
cost twice as much as the gasoline?
This is true in portions of the
drOught-stricken west.
