ND IT EVER OCCUR TO YOU ?
MOVING PICTURE ETIQUETTE
On entering a moving picture thea
ter make as much noise as possible.
This will advise those already'seated
that you have really arrived.
On taking a seat, push your el
bows out as far as possble. When they
come in contact with those on each
side, it will serve to teach your neigh
bors to make way when you arrive.
These lessons cannot be taught to
vigorously.
After you get comfortably seated n
your chair, cross your legs, and then
bump your knee against the back of
the seat in front of you, keeping t'nne
with the music. This will be greatly
appreciated by the person whose chair
back is being used as a bass-drum.
If you fail to appreciate any part
of a picture hiss loudly or shout "rot
ten," "bum," “awful” or some other
such appropriate word. This will
prove you know a thing or two and,
by gum, that you aren't afraid to
spea k u l>.
In passing in front of others, take
all the time you want and step on a
foot now and then. The other need
stirring up occasionally.
When the comed'ies are shown don’t
laugh at anything you see . Hearty
laughter is so vulgar.
If you have seen the pictures be
fore watch carefully and shout out the
plot before it come in view on the
screen—ttiis will prove you are a pret
ty smart feller.
In passing down llie aisle to secure
a seat don’t waste time and 'if possible,
run at full speed. Those you knock
down in the rush will learn to get out
of your way the next time.
If you are a good -guesser, tell your
neighbors what's coming next. They
will be grcutful for the advance in
formation.
If a fine picture has a few flaws in
it, always remember them and forget
the rest. It is a sure sign of high in
telligence to pick as many flaws as
possible.
Criticise the .acting as much as pos
sible, and speak in a loud tone of voice.
This will also convince your neighbors
that you know a lot.
If the pictures are so good that you
can't find fault, say mean things about
the music and if the music is all right,
roast the seats or the ventilaton. Re
member, if you look sharply you can
always find something to kick about.
Always make it a point to tell how
much better the other theatres in
other towns are and don't fail to key
vour voice so that it carries far. The
management will hear of it eventually

GERMAN WOMAN JUST HEARD OF
WAR STRUGGLE IN EUROPE
Daltimore.—A person hits been found
who, until the other day, was una
ware of the war in Kuropc. She is
neither deaf or dumb, nor blind, nor
ill, and she has not lived in the back
woods or Jungle. She comes from
Indianapolis. Lena Kolb 'is her name,
and she was born in Germany and
came to tills country 1" years ago.
The German consul here and others
who have met her are finding her
story hard to believe, but she insists
it is true and apparently wants to
get back to Germany for no other
reason than to live there on her mea
ger savings hoarded »n 17 years.
Lena stepped front a train in Union
station and naked a railroad officer to j
threet her to the docks or offices of the |
North German Lloyd line. She gasped
in astonishment when she was inform
ed that the ships were not running
and had been idle for two years or
more.
"Why?" she asked.
"Because of the war." the policeman
told her.
"What war?” she gasped again.
When told of the war in Europe and ;
Germany's part in it, sin' betrayed |
much foehng and when she recovered
her breath, she exclaimed: "Mein!
(iott! that's the first I hear of it. It
iss too bad.”
Taking note of the fact that the salt
bag which the woman clutched palp
ably containing money, tbc policeman
sent her to a hotel. In the morning
she was taken to the Herman consul,
who 'informed her she was no longer a
Herman citizen, and that an attempt
ed trip to the Fatherland would be
fraught with many dangers, consider
ing the possibility that she might be
taken for a spy.

Whitehorse is rapidly becoming the
center of a great copper mining in
dustry, the mines of that vicinity hav
ing become regular shippers of ore.
An unusual amount of mining ac
tivity is reported from the creeks of

*
Henry Burke, an employe of the
Martin mine on Willow Creek, and
another miner were seriously injured
recently by an explosion. The explo
sion was caused when one of them
dropped a lighted fuse in a box of
caps.
A slight difficulty occurred recent
ly between the miners and the man
agement of the Mother I.ode mine

While hunting near Copper Center
reoently It. Macauley was attacked by
a large wolverine, and severely bitten
and scratched. The animal had kill
ed a rabbit and was sitting over his
prey when Macauley stepped around
a rock directly onto him. Before he
could shoot the wolverine leaped for
him, and for a time it looked as if the
man would get the worst of It, but he
beat the animal oft with his gun and
•hot It, Macauley had scratches ten
inches long nnrl half on inch deep on
one side.
The ley Straits Packing Company
is the name of a new $100,000 corpor
ation recently organized at Juneau of
following the fishing and packing
business in the waters of Alaska.
The Juneau city council, at a recent
meeting, unanimously voted to en
force the curfew ordinance to the let
ter. Children tinder tho age of six
teen found on the streets after nine
o'clock at night unaccompanied by
parents or older people, will he taken
home by the police on the first offense
but will be arrested for the second
offense.
The Fairbanks News-Miner says it
has positive information that the gov
ernment has had a special agent in
that town for months, whose duty It
Is to report rablrl utterances on the
war question, and the names of per
sons who showed an unneutral inter
est in the war. The editor of the
New-Miner must think the govern
ment is much concerned in the utter
ances of the Fairbanksans or else
he is seeing things.
There is much excitement in Chena
over the discovery of coarse gold,
made by Dick Stein as he was sinking
a well in his back yard, says tho Fair
banks News-Miner of February 3.
The well was sunk forty-two feet,and
although not to bedrock, coarse, gold
was found. This dlscavery, added to
the fact that some of his chickens,
which were hatched and lived in the
same yard, when killed were found to
have picked up gold nuggets, con
vinces the owner that his prospect
will turn out well, and with this en
couragement he has started to sink a
new shaft to bedrock, and already Is
down eight feet. As prospectors in
tho early days of Chena found some
good prospects, and, believing that the
gold comes from the same hill that
furnished the fortunes of Ester ccreok,
old timers are interested greatly, and
arc anxiously watching developments.
Many are staking claims in the town
of Chena, as the exact status of the
property is not known, many contend
ing that the original town lot makers
have no more rights there. Today' a
number of old timers rushed to Chena
from Ester and from Fairbanks, and
I at Inst reports about everything In
sight had been staked.
