NOT AS LITTLE. BI T SO MITH
The demand of the time is to give.
It is a high demand, and the duty it
creates rests on every yone. Give
money, give service, give time, give
energy, give thought—give anything
we have to help win the war.
Tor most of us the principal busi-!
ness in life is to rec« ive, not to give;
to reap where those preceding us have
sown the seed. We live in freedom
under the government others have
created. We acquire knowledge in
the schools they established. We
worship the Almighty God according
to the dictates of conscience in the
churches they built. In the philoso-i
phies they founded our minds are en
riched. In the literatures they have
given we take delight. Their art and
their music is our intellectual and
emotional joy and inspiration,
comforts we have, the opportunities
that offer for intimate intercourse
and association in which distance is
annihilated and time is not. are he
products of thought and labor which
before our time have achieved the
conquest of nature. We are residuary
legatees of all high purpose, noble
thought, genius, self-sacrifice, enthu
siasm. hero-loving ami progressive
world toll that have gone before.
The fruit of all this past endea.oi
ls the realization of an existence with
an infinitely expanding horizon; and
the motif of that existence is human
freedom. The fundamental expres
sion of human freedom is in govern
ment. In the original and primal ex
ample of government—the family—r
then* were two predominant purposes,
guidance and jyotection. These could
not be served without authority and
obedience to authority. Through all
the developed complexities of centu
ries, government serves the same fun
damental purposes to*lay that it did
when th** race was in its swaddling
clothes.
Government is u>efu to m ?•< in*!
a> it protects the weak from oppres
sion by the strong and as it »
guidance of superior wisdom for the
development of individual life and the
enhancement, collectively, of human
welfare and human happiness. Gov
ernment based upon the collective
conscience, upon the collective intelli
gence, upon the collective concept o’
justice—government that rests upon j
the consent of the governed—has
prove*! in the experience of m •!* that
it performs these functions infinitely
better than any other. That form o:
government responds to the prun'd j
instinct of men to be free. The roots
of it are deep down in the heart of all
humanity. The highest attainment of
modern civilization. The ambition to
establish it, to maintain it, to live by
it. to prosper by it. and so far as may
be to bring through its beneficence
peace and justice to ail mankind is
universal. That government is de
mocracy. and democracy is the heart s
desire of the modern world.
On this continent, fortune, finding
expression in the spirit, the deter
mination and the wisdom o? free men,
has advanced the ideals of democratic •
government to a realization of of the
dreams of prophets and the hope of
altruits who, in past centuries, have
stood upon the heights and over and
beyond the murk of tyranny, of slav
ery ami unrestricted greed and ambi
tion have glimpsed the promised land.
In American democracy the great da>
dream of humanity is not as yet com
pletely fulfilled, but it has at least
attained to reality. It has given more
to those who live under it than any
other form of government has evei
given to its people. In those practi
cal respects which mean a fuller life
to the masses of plain people, which
mean a higher standard of public in
telligence. a keener public conscious
ness of right and wrong, a greatci
degree of public comfort and inde
pendence and a marvelous faculty loi
material progress, American demo
cracy has traveled farthest and is ol
greatest promise.
Against democracy the last power
ful foe is now delivering an assault.
It* the triumph of that foe were pos
sible, American democracy would go
down with the rest. I hat toe wilt
triumph unless American democracy
prevents; and to prevent it, we must
tight and we must give. •
We know that those who shall be
given the right of line, on whom shall
fall the honor and the burden of the
actual blood conflict will not tight as
little as they can, but as hard and a>
effectively as God will give them
strength. To those of us who must
remain in the roar and be content
with giving, the assured example ot
our lighting sons and brothers must
not be lost. That which we would
save to our posterity is worth the
sacrifice of all we have. The duty is
upon us to give—give all we can that
the good we inherited may lie ampli
fied and transmitted as greater good
to those who follow.
Let us give—give—not as little,
hut as much as ever we can.

A JITNEY JINGLE
By J. I*. M.
To Anchorage we're not always kind.
And to her virtues we’re not blind;
Jealous feelings are oft' expressed,
And not directed at our guests.
And to show that we’re not zealous
’Bout the things that people tell us,
We will point with civic pride.
To distinguished men by our side.
Walter DeLong who’s from those
Supplies the food to curb their wants;
He lighters freight cheaper, they say.
Than it can be moved in Seward today. |
To everyone lie's always kind.
And if you know him you will find
That he is a most honest sort,
And efficiency is his forte.

There once was a fellow named
MOMB,
As a poet he susely was Somb
We never did think.
Till he spilled the ink,
That poetry could be so Bomb.
He’s only been with three weeks.
But its plain whenever he speaks
He gives us a hunch,
That l»e thinks us a‘bunch
Of brainless camouflaged geeks.

will prove correct. Boats are worth
almost their weight in pounds and
A’aska, dependent to such a great ex
tent upon boats, needs every carrier
possible.
It sometimes takes Seward citizens
a long time to grasp the importance
of affairs, but it is needless to say
that before December 1st the hundred
dollars to be raised for one hundred
gifts to the soldiers and sailors, Sew
ard’s quota, will be forthcoming.
And don’t forget that you live in a
city where law is order; where you
are safe and there will never be any
necessity for calling on “the presi
dent of the United States” to stop
lawlessness like the Anchorage Times
has sent out broadcast that ma\ ie
sult in the Burg on the inlet.
ACT QUICKLY
Do the light thing at the right
time. ^
Act quickly in time of danger.
In time of kidney danger, Doan’s
Kidney Dills are most effective,
plenty of convincing evidence ot
their worth. ,
Charles Deter Schellberg, jeweler,
SIT F Street, San Diego, Cal., says:
“Doan’s Kidney Dills have done what
is right by me and I don’t hesitate
to recommend them. For years I sut
fered from kidney complaint and ev
erything I did to get relief failed. My
bladder was so weak 1 could hardly
control the kidney secretions. Nights
l was obliged to get up on that ac
count and the unnatural appearance
of the secretions made me leel sure
my kidneys needed attention. Doan s
Kidney Dills helped me from the start
and before put an end to the trouble.’
