MANY SOLDIERS NOW IN ALASKA COMING BACK
 AFTER WAR IS OVER

WAsHINGTON-Major Joseph M. App1egate of Los Angeles, Senior Chaplain of the Alaskan Depart ment, reports that many soldiers sent to Alaska say they expect to return there to live after the war is over.
 Major Applegate said the Army's contingent in Alaska has carried out a three fold assignment. de- lending the Territory, building camp sites. and constructing air fields.
 The Major said the soldiers have learned to like the country and the people and he has so reported to the War Department after 19 months in Alaska.
 Major Applegate said the enter tainment for the soldiers is largely improyised. particularly in isolated posts manned by a few soldiers and who on their off hours from guard fish and hunt for sport and provide game food for their table.

MILD WINTER ON UPPER STIKINE MAKES HARD
 GOING TO TELEGRAPH

A letter received here by U. S. Commissioner R. J. Suratt from Mrs Frank Jackson wife of "Ground- hog" Jackson who. years ago dis covered the Groundhog anthracite coal deposits near Telegraph, tells of an unusually mild winter on the up- per Stikine. The Jacksons live at Grand Rapids. 14 miles below Tele- graph Creek and Mrs. Jackson said that because the river failed to freeze over this year between there and the town, they were forced to use the arduous land trail. which is much longer and more difficult than running up by dog team over the river ice. She also reported that wolves are unusually plentiful this year with a consequent scarcity of moose.

Over a thousand years ago today the man who was to become the patron saint of the Irish died. He IS the man most universally connected with Fire throughout the world and from his saintedness many legends have sprung up. When he died he was beloved all over the Emerald Isle and it was through his efforts that Ireland became the Christian nation it is today
 Let us glance at a brief account of this mans life. He was born in England about 389, and lived in southwestern Britain in the troub- led days when the Romans were abandoning the island to it's fate. He was educated as a Christian, and such education was to have great influence on his later life, as we shall see. When he was sixteen years of age. Irish raiders came by his ome and took him as a slave, car wing him to Ireland. After serving six years in slavery he escaped to Trance where he became a monk. After some time, he returned to his boyhood home in Britain. It was there that he received the vision that was to alter the course of his life. He interpreted the vision as a missionary call to Ireland, and so returned to France where he spent 14 years preparing for his work. Arriving in Ireland with the title. of Bishop. he began the work which was to make him patron saint of the island. His work went forward in the face of much hostility from Territory in war time.
 the fierce tribal chleftanss and it is said. when his mission was com pleted there was not a heather lert on the entire island.
 To the many Irish in our land today, and to those serving with our armed forces, we pay tribute. Surely much of their spirit and great fortitude has been attributed to this great man The people of old Erin who migrated to our country in it's earlier days are fight ing in the present world conflict to preserve such days as honor great historical personnages as Saint Pat rick. Let us remember them on this Friday, March 17th.
