Ar rived Tn the United State 1913. He has been a resident of Nome about 12 years, having worked for the Alaska Road Commission for several years after his arriv- al in Nome Of late years he has been employed as a ditch walker for the Hammon company, and came to town recently after the seasons work.

STORK'S VISIT
 TO BE REWARDED
Nome Landlord Presents Baby Bonds to Babies Born
 In His Apartments

Joe Wallace, proprietor of the famous" Seiffert Flats of early Nome days, and now known as the Wallace Apartment Building, on Second Avenue, made prop osition a couple of years ago, that to every baby born in his apart ment house, he would present $25.00 cash. Thus far, he has only been called on twice to make re- wards, after the Stork paid vis- its to this northern section.
 We do not know whether Pro- prietor Wallace has gone into partnership with the "Stork' or not. However, Joe has made a new arrangement, that hence forth he will present United States Baby Bond of $2500 value to each and every baby born in said apartment house - singles, twins or quintuplets will all be entitled to Baby Bond.
 Since this announcement has been whispered around, it now looks like MT. Wallace will have to construct another apartment house, due to the increased num- Der of requests for renters of his apartments, which also looks like he has started a new way to in- crease the population of Nome.
 If this "Stork' business gets to multiplying at an alarming num- ber-which is not unusual during the long cold winter nights, we can look forward to the Alaska Steamship Company having to add several additional boats on the Nome run to see the apart ment, the proud owner as we'll as the fathers and mothers of the proud babies; pictures and nov ies will then follow the tourists, as they do at Calandar, Ontario, where the Dionne quints are housed, and who are already on their way to fortune.
 Well, folks if this does come to pass, naturally the local cham Der of Commerce, the city coun- cil, and the Nome Kennel Club will have to keep pace with the ever moving and growing city of Nome and it's population.

JOE SHELDON PASSES AWAY

A telegram received by Mrs. Sam Taggart from Mrs. Vesta Sheldon, gives the information concerning the death of her hus- band, Joe Sheldon, at Pasadena, California, Dec. 20th, following a lingering illness. The message also states that his funeral was held Thursday, Dec 22nd.
 At the time of his death he was president of the A. C. Bro man Stationery supply houses of that city. Beside his wife, he leaves three children, Joe Shel- don, Jr., Harry Sheldon and one daughter, Jane.
 Joe Sheldon -came to Nome following the gold rush days, and was a close friend of Capt. E. w. Johnston, with whom he made his home, Capt. Johnston was owner of one of the rich placer mining claims on the famous Third Beach Line, between the Bessie Bench and Little Creek, just about the time of the receiy- ership days when the rightful owners were being forced off their claims by ngsters.
 Joe Sheldon was for a time looking after the cleanups for MT. Johnston and was also an employee of the Alaska Banking and Safe Deposit Company.
 Later he became cashier of the bank and continued in the bank ing business until this institution was absorbed by the Miners and Merchants bank, when he be- came a director and part owner. He was one of the few bankers who held the confidence of the general public and who was al- ways considered the friend of the 'underdog." He disposed of his banking interests here during the panicky days of bank failures in Seattle and Tacoma and with his family left Nome for the States; entering into the taxi-cab busi- ness in Seattle for a time with Vim. A. Gilmore and Sam Tagg- art, who conducted the Yellow Taxi Cab Co.,. finally settling down in business in Pasadena. California.
 He married Vesta Story, dau- ghter of Captain Harry Story of Nome, in the cary days of the camp, the union being blessed by three offspring. Friends will be sorry to hear of the passing of this fine young man who made his start here and the Nome Mug get takes this opportunity to ex-

EXTENSION OF SOCIAL SECURITY
BENEFITS

THE liberalization of the provisions of the Social
Security Act already agreed to by the Ways
and Means Committee of the House of Representa-
tives will, when adopted by Congress-, bring de-
served benefits to an increased number OF WOrklngI
men and women and their dependents.
TO remedy injustice in coVerage the committed
included approximately 100000 employees in natl
onal banks, State bank members of the Federal
Reserve System, and certain building and loan as
sOciatiOns in the unemployment compensation pro-
visions and extended the old age pension provs-
ions to between 100000 and 10000 maritime
workers, now exempt. "n
Other proposals approved by the committee
would increase old age pensions in the early years
of the social security plan, with added benefits for
widows, orphans and dependent parents.
In addition, benefit payments would start next
January instead of January l. 1912.
Chairman DOughton of the Ways and Means
Committee estimated that these changes would
ladd about 81 200, 900 to benefits during the
next five years, while the amendments holding the
|payroll taxes at the present rate would decrease
the tax cost which would be caused by the increas
ling rates contained in the present Act.
Under the new plan proposed by the commit
|tee worker who reaches the age of 65 on Janu-
larry 1, 194O and who has been paid an average of
$500 month since the old age insurance program
became effective on January L. 1887 would be able
Ito retire on his birthday in 1910 and receive pen
sion of $25.75 month during the rest of his life
Under the present provisions of the Social Sc
|curity Act, he would be entitled only to one lump
sum payment of $126.
In case his wife also were 65 years old, he
would receive so per ent more, a total Of
1888 .63 month On his DEATH his widow would be
paid three-fourths of the amount of her husbands
monthly benefit, $19.31, while she lived.
In addition, the amendments approved by the
committee provide benefits for younger widows
land minor children. In the case of a man who had
earned an average of 500 month for three
months and who died on January 1, 1910, his
widow would receive $19.31 month. If she had
two minor children she would be paid $47.O7 al
month until the children 16 or until they
were Is if they remained in school.
Such widow, with or without children, would
be entitled to an additional benefit at 65 years of
S19.31 monthly during her lifetime If the work
er who became 65 years of age on January 1, 194O
died and left no widow or children but was sur
vved by department parent, the parent would
receive $12.88 month.
Single men under the committees amendment
are not treated so generously. A single man with
|4O years coverage and an average monthly wage
Iof 500 during that period would be entitled to-
|only $35 month under the new plan, compared
with $51.25 under the present law

1t establishes rock-bottom universal mini
mum wage of twenty-five cents an hour for the
first year for all workers employed in interstate
commerce. This minimum is to be raised to thirty
cents an hour in the second year, and to forty
cents an hour at the end of six years.
The law also establishes universal ceiling for
hours OF work 1t provides a top 44-hOur work
week for the first year, 42-hour work week for
the second year, and 4O-hour work week there
latter, with time and a-half for overtime for work
lin excess Of these hours.
The Act also bans child labor. It absolutely
prohibits the employment of children under 16
years of age in manufacturing and mining. In
other occupations, employment of children between
the ages of Ia and Is may be permitted, but only
Ito the extent authorized by the Chief of the Child
rens Bureau who is required to make sure that
work will not interfere with the childrens school
ling or impair their health. In occupations declared
Ito be hazardous by the Chief of the Childrens Bu-
reau, employment of children under 18 is pro-
|hibted.
Thus the Fair Labor Standards Act establishes
Ia bottom limit for wages provides a top limit for
weekly hours, and eliminates child labor by Fed
|eral regulation.
The Fair Labor Standards Act went into effect
lon October "a, 1888. At that time employers sub
|ject to the Act were paying over 100000 workers
less than twenty-five cents an hour. Since October
IA practically all of these workers have had their
wages increased to the twenty y-five cent minimum
required by the statute. And half million work
|ers will receive the minimum of thirty cents an
|hour with the second year under the Act begins
next October.
The minimum wage standards imposed by the
Fair Labor Standards Act are not high The short
Ter work week required by the Act is not unreason-
liable.
1t is, therefore, extremely regrettable that the
|Chamber of Commerce of the United States COM
posed of those who profess to represent American
Industry and commerce, should be persuaded to
make the demand that the constructive and social
|ly beneficial Fair Labor Standards Act of 1888
should be repealed and thousands of working men
land women, and even children, consigned to the
industrial slavery which existed for them before

Rest is the most successful method
of treating tuberculosis. Hippocrates
before the time of Christ recommend
ed rest to his patients who were sick
with lung diseases. Today the most
modern tuberculosis hospitals use rest
supplemented with a we'll balanced
diet and fresh air as the basis of all
treatment.
The above chart shows how COM
plete bed rest allows the lungs to rest.
Surgery is sometimes used to sup
plement bed rest.
Artificial pneumothorax is the most
common operation used in the treat
ment of tuberculosis. 1t is simple
method of collasping the lung which
permits more complete rest. The

This, too, is simple method of rest
ing the lung by cutting the phrenic
nerve which controls the diaphragm
muscle. This stops the up and down
motion of the lung. Thoracoplasty Is
