The Loyal Order of Moose, founded as it is upon the
true manhood theory, is surely an organization that ap
peals to the person who is interested in the uplift of hu
manity and the betterment of conditions along all lines.
This order is one whose great endeavor is the amalgama
tion of the better element of each community into one
Big Brotherhood whose objects and aims are the advance
ment of social, educational and moral development, and in
view of this fact the Order solicits all men of the Cauca
sian race of good moral character to join its ranks and as
sist in the great work that has now advanced from the
stage of theory to realization. The world admires a man
who is willing to sacrifice for others, but when the sacri
fice is a pleasure and brings benefits directly to him It
then becomes a business proposition. The Order has now
passed the million mark in numerical strength and Is mak
ing wonderful strides In the fraternal world. We are pre
paring for the future of our membership by building Vo
cational Schools, Homes for the Widows and Orphans and
Homes for the Aged. Each member contributes $1.00 per
year for the maintenance of these institutions. Think
what one million dollars will do to provide for the help
less. It will sweep away pain from countless sickbeds and
bring hope to the aged and homeless. We accept all men
of the Caucasian race between the ages of 21 and 55 years.
Men over the age of 55 years may Join as non-beneficial
members. There are Moose Lodges in nearly every Alas
kan city and Valdez will soon be in line with the others.

Organizer.

NEED MORE TROOPS
IN UNITED STATES
General Witherspoon In Annual Re
port Asks for Army of Fully
Two Hundred Thousand.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 18—Chief of
Staff Witherspoon, in his annual re
port today to the Secretary of War,
strongly urges the increasing of the
United States army from its present
strength of 80,000 to fully 200,000 men
and officers. General Witherspoon
points out the fact that large num
bers of troops are needed to protect
the over seas possessions of the Un
led States in the Philippines, Hawaii,
Porto Rico and Guam and that a
strong detachment is needed to pro
tect the ¥350,000,000 Panama canal
from sudden attack in case of war.
“With the present ‘force it is im
possible to protect the long coast line,
the canal and the over sea colonies
with a force of men, which congress
limits to 100,000 and provides for on
ly four-fifths of that number. At least
200,000 men are needed and also a
more mobile reserve to be called up
on in case of need,” says the report.
It is be'ieved here that the next
session of congress will provide for
a larger army.
CARRANZA TO

Denies Intention of Resigning—Will

Fight To End—Expects Victory
Over Villa.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 18.—The rep
resentatives here of Provisional Pres
ident Carranza, of Mexico, have been
instructed to inform the State depart
ment that President Carranza had no
intention of resigning his office, but
rather that he was determined to
fight Villa to the end and that he
expected an easy victory.
Carranza claims that he will pro
tect all foreigners and foreign owned
property from destruction by the reb
els and will also protect the lives
and property of foreigners within his

GANGRENE GERM
ISJISCOVERED
PARIS, Nov. 17.—A microbe caus
ing gangrene to develop in bullet and
shrapnel wounds has been discover
ed by Drs. James Scarlett and George
Desjardine of the American ambu
lance service. Previously initial cul
tures all were impure, leading to the
belief of scientists that the disease
was caused, not by a single germ, but
by a combination of germs. After
much research and experimentation
on horses and guinea pigs a single
bacillus has been discovered and iso
lated, and the serum is now being
prepared by Dr. Henri Weinberg of
the Pasteur Institute. The discovery
is expected in medical circles to have
world-wide importance.
RUSSIANS HAVE NO
WINIERJIARTERS
LONDON, Nov. 17.—The Standard’s
corrspondent at Petrograd says:
“There Is good authority for stating
that the Russian army will not go in
to winter ’ quarters, but will pursue
the campaign without a break no mat
ter what the weather.
“Poland and East Prussia may be
cold in winter, but their climate is
mild compared with some parts of
Russia, and the Russian army after
its experiences in the winter cam
paign against Japan has no fear of
being unusually hampered by the
weather in the present operations.”
