THE TEACHER’S
OPPORTUNITY
The strength of the Unit
ed States depends upon the
practical patriotism and thi
sound economic thoughts oi
her future citizens. Thest
characteristics must be de
veloped in the daily life o*
the school.
Economists agree that the
universal adoption of habit;
of intelligent saving wil:
strengthen our nation tre
mendously. When ever}
wage earner has a reserve
fund of money the country
will be sound economically,
socially and politically.
The teacher who encour
ages pupils to earn money to
invest in thrift and war sav
ing stamps is doing much foi
their economic strength ana
practical patriotism.
Each child who buys the
stumps feels a partnership
in the government; he learns
the wisdom of investing his
money in securities that are
absolutely safe; he becomes
familiar in a practical way
with compound interest; and
he sticks stamp after stamp
upon the card, he has a vis
ual demonstration of how
savings grow.
Faith without work is
dead. Thrift without safe in
vestment such as govern
ment savings securities, u
robbed of its benefits. Its vi.
tue lies not only in its pnn
clples but in the actual prac
tise of investment
Each year thousands o.;
boys and girls in the Unitet
States are deprived of a col
lege education because of tlx
lack, of money.
You can remedy this situa
tion among your pupils b}
starting them on the road tc
saving early in life and en
couraging them to safe
guard these savings in gov
ernment securities. You art
rendering a real service to
your country and your pupl
by promoting the sale of the
stamps.
Add to your influence as 2
teacher. Promote sound eco
nomic thought, practical pat
riotism and prosperity by en
couraging your pupils in the
regular purchase of thrift
stamps and war saving
stamps.
MUSH AND MUSE
( Anchorage Times)
When the ancient and Ex
alted Order of Sapatant de
cided upon a Bridegrooms’
club as one of its many ram
ifications, it hardly reckoned
upon the impetus that was
to follow the call of the love
lorn for a better seven
eighths, but at the rate the
registration is proceeding it
would appear that before the
thing ends Anchorage is des
tined to have a deluge of
weddings in summer.
Judging by the reports
coming in from up the line
Dan Cupid has a /machine
gun nest somewhere up the
route to Cache creek.
Said the Cacjm creek ora
’ \ -N
cle last night: “Out of four
teen men on the creek there
is but one in double harness.
All of the thirteen bannock
hounds are ready to-split tlu
wood, bring in the water sup
ply the grub and wipe the
dishes. Why,man, some tirm
ago a woman walked over
the trail out there and one
old sourdough dscoveredhei
tracks, put up a monument
with a location notice on it,
and charged four bits for al
lowing the rest of the gang
to look at it They even held
Sunday services around it.
“And say partner, some oi j
these muck-wrestlers are go- j
mg to take out a wad of yel- ]
low metal next summer.
“That remindirjie” said a
man from Ramsdyke creek.
Last fall I had apartner who
sat around nights and whit
tied. It was my week to get
the wood and his week to get
the game. One day I was out
after a dry log and I saw hin.
with his arms out walking
up the trail. Right in front
of him was a big bear stand
ing with his arms out
“ ‘Whyinell don’t you kit
him?’ I yelled
“ ‘Kill ’im,’ says he. ‘1 want
to hug and kiss ’him!’ That’s
affection for you.”
The order paper having
reached the poet-laureate,
the man from Gold Creek
submitted the following:
“Like a zephyr of spring she
blew into my life,
My sourdough Sal, my
Syracuse wife;
She shook up the song in my
sourdough soul,
And quit me at Knik with
my clean-up of gold.”
“That’s what ye get for
j havin’ married in a furrin’
! country,” said the man from
Peter’s creek.
I “We got to have some rule
about widders,” broke in an
old Sapatanus from Thundei
creek. “I propose? that all the:
bidders married by • mem-;
iers of this club have got to j
'umish an affidavit to the ef j
:ect that their first two hus- j
lands were either hung for I
nurder or given life for j
>eing habitual booze hounds
md tough guys. We don’t
vant any wimmin tellin’ us
.bout what a fine man their
arst husband was.”
Carried by acclamation.
After which the president j
mnouheed that the eligible j
ist was open to all comers;
m Anchorage ana tnat anotn |
sr chance was to be given!
ocal maidens to save sour-1
doughs from Eastern brides.!

At the eleventh homslast
evening our Interty^ ma
chines decided to stnke*
We regret the delay in get
ting out thf paper. The girls
delivered them before Mine
o'clock this morning, ^com
bination evening and. morn
ing edition of the Gateway
is a novelty. Owing to the
strike of the machines the
change of program at the Li
berty was overlooked. You
will notice the change has
been made today. If you did
not see the show last night,
go tonight because the pro
gram is one of the best that
has been shown at the Liber
ty for some time and the va
riety is excellent. The old
saying that “All comes to
him who waits,” holds good.
The paper came- We sincere
ly hope that we will not be
obliged to make you wait
again.
