The building of a road from Seward to Roosexelt
then on into Kenai will open a district that has heretolori
been almost inaccessible. The Chamber of Commerce
should urgently demand that the money now available bt
expended for this purpose and that immediately.
Rut don’t forget to register for the city election. Men
and women who have been in Seward the required lengtl
of time should take advantage of the registration in ordei
to vote. Don’t leave off registering until the last day 01
two.
A newspaper dispatch says that the German soldiers
are wearing paper pants. This is one innovation thank
goodness, which cannot be copied in Alaska. Not includ
ing vicissitudes of the climate, the price ol paper makes
these sartorial adornments prohibitive.—(\aldez Pros

Alsace-Lorraine must remain a part of Germany be
cause 87 per cent of the inhabitants speak German, says
von Hertling. And any time they failed to they went to
jail.
Reports from Europe say Emperor Karl, of Austria,
lets Empress Zita run things. Get ready for the upheaval
boys.. You remember what happened to Alexander of
Serbia, Czar Nicholas, and Constantine of Greece, don’t

THE SAVER AND THE BEST CUSTOMER.
-r—
Which kind of customer would you prefer to have,
M r. Merchant:—
The man who, as soon as he gets a dollar, rushes into
your store and snends it for something, whether he needs
* v
it or not, and then, when he is out of work, hasn’t a cent
to his name and comes around begging you for credit?
Or—
The man, who, while earning money, spends a little
V-ss than he makes, saving something for a rainy day, and
•lwavs has something laid bv to tide him over periods of
tdversity?
Which kind of a man makes the best customer in the
mg run? Which do you lose the most money on, the care
ail savers or the quick spenders?
Every man, woman or child who invests in United
States War Savings Stamps automatically steps from the
i anks of hasty spenders to those of savers. Every dollar
, ?aved is invested in the world’s best security, drawing
good interest. Every stamp bought can be cashed at the
Post Ofiice, at full face value, with interest added, in time
of need. People who own these stamps won’t be coming i
around to you Mr. Merchant when times are slack, beg
ging for long credit. They will have money of their own.
Sell M ar Savings and Thrift Stamps in your store.
Boost for them all the time and everywhere. They are
making safe, responsible customers for you all the time.,,
