but they haven't yet given
him a regular spot on the air.

George says:

Trouble is. we're having a little

Many critics have tried to
find an easy niche in which to
place Gobel. They seem to
want to compare him with
other top young TV comics
like Herb Shriner and Wally
Cox, but George disagrees.
Maybe it's because I some

Geochemical Kit


 Another advance in prospecting equipment is small chemical kit for testing streams for base metal content. Geochemical pros pecting can be applied to streams as well as soils, since water com- ing from a mineralized area car ries minute quantities of the metals there. Copper, lead, zinc, and nickel are detectable with the kit, and the detection is accom- plished by color changes when the chemical reagents are mixed with the water sample. As with radio activity, any area will have a background count" and it is quantities above this base level that indicate possibilities of com- mercially important mineral de- posits. The manufacturer of this kit is Canadian geophysical company, and instructions are supplied with each kit.

ASTRONOMY NOTES
By OLAF HALVERSON

There is an interesting grouping of four planets in one quadrant of the heavens at the present time. The quadrant lies between the sun and the zenith at sunset time.
 The four planets that are in close proximity to one another are Mercury, Venus, Neptune and Saturn. The smallest of these is Mercury, which revolves around the sun in 88 days and never gets over 28 degrees from it.
 Venus, the brightest of the planets, revolves around the sun in 225 days. This planet never exceeds AS degrees from the sun.
 Neptune can be seen only through a telescope and is 30 time the distance that the earth is from the sun. It takes Neptune 165 years to go around the sun.
 Saturn requires 29 years to re- volve around the sun and is visi- ble without telescope.

September. 1854

September. 1854
 The US. Tin Corp. tin mine at Lost River shipped 183 tons of tin concentrates by Alaska Steam ship Co. last month. This was probably the largest shipment ever made from an American tin mine.
 The concentrates were shipped in 215 oil drums and valued at $225,0OO. They are destined for the government tin smelter at Texas City, Tex. Another ship ment is planned for October.
 Assessment Work Affidavits
 More than half of the assess ment work affidavits currently being filed in Alaska are incor- rect in some way or another. While it is true that the filing of the affidavits is not compul- sorry, and also true that the courts usually place considerable weight on claim holders honest intent, it still seems reasonable that the affidavit should be filed and filed correctly for the claim holders own protection.
 If the affidavit is to be filed, it might as well be correctly made out and filed within the time limit so that future possible claim con- testants or purchasers can not question it or the holders title to the claim. Otherwise it may be a waste of time and money.
 The law states that the affidavit shall be filed within 90 days after the expiration date of the assess mSnt year if it is to be effective. That makes the deadline for fil- ing affidavits at noon Sept. 29.
 The law requires the five fol- lowing items to be included in a correct affivadit:
 CD The name or number of the claims and where situated;
 CD The number of days work done and the character and value of the improvement made;
 (0 The date of the performance of such labor and of the making of improvements;
 (4) At whose instance the work was done or the improvements made;
 (5) The actual amount paid for such work and improvements, and by whom paid, when the work was not done by the owner or his lessee.
 One of the most common mis- takes made is failing to indicate on the affidavit who owns the claim. The affidavit must be sworn to before Notary Public or a Postmaster. It may be made out for more than one claim so long as the claims are named and all details given.

ened by comforting others who are
suffering as much or more than
we are. There is selfishneSs in sor-

OF courage; in time of doubt there
is the ministry Of faith; in time of
trouble there is need for varied
service. In solving others pro-

as James gives II, Is to keep ones
self unspotted from the world. That
is a difficult thing. The temptations
are so plentiful and Satan is so
clever urging us to indulge in this
or that when we know and should
see that it leads to further degra-
dation. "As a man thinketh in mis-
heart, so is he," and the indiyi-
dual who INDUCES in filthy stories
or listens to them, is being not
only being tempted but tainted. A
man cannot any more expose him
self to filth in the spoken word
and keep himself unspotted than he
could by walking through a coal
yard in a white suit without get
ting dirty.
We perhaps have faith, even so
faith, elf it have not works, is
dead in ITSELF" The Church has
spent much time arguing as to whe.
ther we are saved by faith or BY
works. That is like debating as to
which came first, the hen or the
egg. Of course we need the hen
to produce the egg, and the egg
to produce the hen. In the same
way we need works to prove our
faith and we need faith to stimu-
late works. James does not deny
that 'the just shall be saved BY
faith" but it can be seen that

Is.
Unselfish service is the greatest
need of the day. We have been
squabbling over UNCONVENTIONAL
differences for centuries and all
can see we have advanced very
little. It is time we proved our
Christian faith by service. To do
this we must have understanding,
tolerance, compassion.
Our reference in Acts tells of
Peter preaching of the goodness
of God who anointed Jesus with
the Holy Ghost and with power.
He went about doing good, healing
the oppressed, and God was with
him. This is our challenge. Instead
of wars where so many of our
young men have been sacrificed,
we might do good by sending food
to the needy which in turn would
give them faith and confidence in
our Christian ideals. Atheistic COM
munism cannot understand such al
truiStic service because it is a ser
vice Of love.
Paul tells the Galatians to "bear
one another's burdens" One of
these burdens is the temporal
needs Of all peoples. The other bur-
den of course is that of moral
faults. The PhariseeS who followed
meticulously the Book Of Church
Order were unable to tighten the
burdens of sin and oppression. The
Christian can serve his neighbour
best by sympathy and understand
ing, but forgiving q man even
when you know he is at fault.
Sharing q neighbor's burdens is not
nice, soft and sentimental thing,
but = hard practical, common
sense fulfillment Of Christian love
and service.
When Bishop Booth Of Vermont
died an old friend said the Bishop
must be in hell. The astonished
friends asked why he would say
such q blasphemouS thing, for he
said, at isn't blasphemous, for
hell is the only place where he can
possibly be happy, for there's so
much work to be done there" In
the same way 4 youngster was
asked where his father was, and he
said, you've got to look for him
where people are sick or hurt, or
something like that. l don't know
where he is, but he's helping some
one somewhere.
James seems. to get ut the crux
of the problem when he said, .Be
We doors Of the word, and not hear
ers only" James was q brother, or
halfbrother of our Lord, and spoke
rather bluntly. He was perhaps the
first bishop Of Jerusalem and
while he may not have been a good
administrator, he was outstanding
in his Interpretation Of the faith.
In fact he declares q mans faith
doesn't mean much unless his ac-
tons support that faith.
