RED CROSS

The Coliseum theatre was the scene of a Red Cross Rally last Sun day afternoon that took older resi- dents of Wrangell right back to the days of World War 1 when rallies were an important part of war work. Most of those taking part were O. a younger generation but the spirit was the same.
 Presiding at the meeting was Chairman E. R. Sharnbroich of Wrangell Chapter, ARC Speakers were H. c. McKowan of the Ameri- can Legion. Brig. Gillingham of the Salvation Army, the Rev. Arnold Krone of the Episcopal Church, Principal George T. Barrett of Wrangell Institute. the Rev. N. Har-

sich accOmpanist.
 Big surprise of the rally was the presentation of S172.36 from the Wrangell Institute to the Red Cross War Fund following the report of Chairman Sharnbroich on the a mount raised to date toward the quota of S750 set for Wrangell. The presentation was made by Melvin Charles of Hydaburg, president of the student body, and was greeted with enthusiastic applause and sin cere appreciation of the help thus rendered. The Institute gift brought the total close to the S700 mark and it was announced that members of the Red Cross Committee would be , stationed in the lobby to receive further contributions.
 Chairman Sharnbroich announces at this time that money received since the rally has completed the quota and it has been found unnec- essary to make a house-tO-house canvas as had been planned. Those who have been missed in the pres ent drive will have an opportunity . to help in the next one. Radio pub . licity indicates that Wrangel lis no doubt one of the first communities of the country to complete her quota toward the War Fund of fifty mil lion for the Red Cross and the mon ey, less fifteen percent which may be retained for local use, will be Wrangell Chapter treasurer, Mrs. l Howard Hungerford.

possible the purchase of four ships
in all the latter three named
the Columbus, Cabot and Andrew

The date, October q, on which
Congress in 1775 acted to establish
our Navy, is celebrated annually
as Navy Day. The purposes of
Navy Day are to pay a deserved
tribute to the splendid service the
men in the Navy have rendered in
making and keeping us nation
and to better inform the American
people of what our Navy is and
does for them. When originally
chosen, October 27, marked not

only one of the most important
dates in u. S. Naval history, but
also the birth date of Theodore
Roosevelt whose life was devoted
to furthering a sound naval policy
for the United States.
In its early days, the history of
our Navy was turbulent one. Dur
ing the revolutionary period 73
vessels of all descriptions were
used, but through sale, capture and
destruction only one was left in
1885 and during that year Congress
abolished the Navy, leaving the
burden of the protection of our
country in the hands of an army of
only so men. In 1894 our Navy
was revived by Congressional Act

BIRTH OF THE U. S.
NAVY

One hundred and sixty-six years
ago a committee of three men
John Adams, Silas Dean and John
LangdOn purchased the merchant
ship, Black Prince, of Philadelphia.
Renamed the Alfred this vessel
had the distinction of being the
first ship in the United States
Navy. These men were appointed
by Congress, through the efforts of
George Washington as naval
committee responsible for the pur-
chase of two vessels. An origina

authorizing the construction of
several frigates to deal with the
Algerine pirates and the first U. s..
Navy Department was established
four years later. One of these new
frigates purchased as a result of
this act of 1894 was the Constitu-
tion-with the Constellation, Unit
ed States, President, Congress and
Chesapeake making up Navy
which, through successful encoun-
ters with French cruisers and pri-
vateers, established an enviable
reputation for itself. In 1901 a
series of engagements with the
Barbary states and the ensuing
treaties rendered commerce in
the Mediterranean safe from at

tack and ended the payment of
tribute by Americans.
The outstanding performance of
our Navy and privateers during the
War of 1912 insured freedom of the
seas for our commerce and further
increased our national prestige
abroad.
The effective work of the Navy
during the World War is still fresh
in the minds of most of us. The
astonishing fact that no American
soldier escorted by the U. S. Navy
lost his life in transit across the
Atlantic amazed even those in the
highest positions of authority.

defense work! Every thing is done

the Courier Reporter reader who
covers front page news. Maybe some
thing could be done to put the small
business man in this big business
picture. There are $4,000 small and
medium sized industrial plants that
can undertake defense work and are
ready to do so if they are given the
orders. There are many factors in
the favor of the gigantic factories
and more reasons that they can at
ford to do the work. BUT there has
been much time lost through big
business trying to fight the strike
situation, a situation that doesn't
seem to keep the small fellows from
producing. There are wide changes
that must be made on big business
machinery that takes more time.

the desperately needed contribution

YOU CAN HELP HERE

Years ago, history tells us, man
chose wife who was skilled hand
at herb growing, in mixing potions
to allay the ills of the body and the
mind, to cure broken promises, bro
ken bones and broken hearts. Es-
pecially in OUR country has this GUS
tom of growing herbs, disappeared.
It became necessary for us to i'm
port herbs and aromatic plants for
drugs and spices and commercial
houses who manufacture medicines,
sprays, paints and varnishes have
had to cultivate their own plants
or get them from abroad. War has
made these companies appeal to
gardeners here at home to give
space in their yards for certain val
liable herbs that we sorely need.
Garden clubs have responded and
through their efforts are furthering
the growth of herbs and certain
valuable types of weeds. From
jimson weed comes a preparation
needed by occulists in enlarging the
pupil of the eye. Dispur yields a
drug for scalp disease. With each
little plot added to each other little
plot through our countryside we will
have an answer to the problem of
shortage of important plants. If any
of you in KenneWick wish to assist
in this cultivation of medicinal
plants, get your offer in to the Ma
tional Farm Chermurgic Council in
Washington.

warning to Courier-Reporter read
ers to take care in addressing, writ
ing plainly and registering cash
when sending out mail. Such plea
comes from Uncle Sans post office
all during the year and it is worth
needing if what the dead letter de-
partment holds is an example of our
carelessness Over ten million pieces
of mail must finally be destroyed
after experts have unsuccessfully
worked on them to decipher the
mail. In cash the department found
about $4,000, which means that
many folks didn't get what was COM

dress upon every piece of outgoing
mail and in case you have made a
mistake you will not have your let

If we should, in our program of

FATHERS DAY

We have worked on so many of
the Ten Commandments and altered
them to suit our own tastes that to
find one that is left unscathed and
unchanged, is a victory. Coveting
what belongs to the neighbor is
practiced even by whole nations.
Thievery is entered into by once
honored governments so that the
individual who steals looks amateur
iSh. But still stands one of the Ten
that is not changed and which al
ways remains as yardstick of mans
principles. Consider Honor thy
father and mother" This theme of
Righteousness is the text of the
family life of every nationality.
Those people who cast aside the
reverence for their father is indeed
lost people.
AS we celebrate our annual Faith
er's Day on Sunday, June Is, con-
slider the manhood of tomorrow from
the training received from the man
hood honored today Perhaps your
own family circle covers a vast
amount of land, members not losing
touch only wandering far afield,
but within each of them remains
their appreciation of their family
The act of fatherhood is one of the
greatest responsibilities placed on a
mans shoulders and his treatment
of this obligation forms the core of
the family life. AS the head of the
house, as the mentor of family be-
havior, as the breadwinner for the
welfare of his own, sits in state the
father. Share this day with him.
Regard his Importance and hope
that one day you might sit in the
seat and bring to it as much honor
as your father before you.
