PHILADELPHIA, June IT- Pliil
thafc the cost of living for California
canary birds will be reduced from its
present level, estimated by canary
dealers at about 2f> cents a month, to
the old pre-war level which ran from
10 to ir» cents, by bringing canary'
did seed direct from Argentina to the <
Pacific Coast, is expressed by Horacio ]
B. Cacci es, Argentine consul-general j
at San Francisco. j
Argentine canary seed is practical
ly the only kind sold in the market
here now, the Sicilian and Turkish va
rieiies having been crowded out by the
war. and the elimination of overland
freight charges fiom New York
.hiough the recent establishment ol a;
new line of shipping board steamers j
from the Pacific Coast to Argentine is
expected by Caceres to be of great im
portance to thousunds ol uiids in Cal

Mrs. F. A. Metcalf, librarian oi
the Public Library at Juneau, has
undertaken the direction of the
"Lo'ks for Everybody" movement in
Alaska for the American Library As
sociation, having been recently ap
pointed.
This movement is a nation- wide
endeavor to promote the extension
of library service so that the mil
lions of people in the United States
and its possessions may have the
opportunity for obtaining reading
matter which is not now within
their reach. It is also designed to
p omot*' the habit of reading and
uni vet sal self -education through

public sentiment that will insure
id ‘(piato support for all existing li
b iries and cause others to be os-J

•AI'ITAL CITY OF ALASKA
M \Y HAVE TKAFFIC COP
I
—
Automobiles are becoming so nu
n.-rous in Juneau that it will soon be
iccessury to have a traffic to]),
f. K. I\ Keegan, the acting chief
>t’ police , may soon he seen at the
nl«• isection of Franklin and Front
treeis, with “windmill arms", direct
ing the speed of the traffic, says
:he Juneau Capital
There will be no more picturesque
traffic cop on Second avenue in Se
attle than Mr. Keegan will make,
with his great bulk.
Owing to frequent automobdc ac
cidents which have occurred recently
on ic count of reckless driving, Mr.
Keegan is starting a vigorous cam
paign for the enforcement of the
city ordinance in regard to the speed ;
limit. Rules governing the require
ments as to lights arc also to be cn- j
forced. i
In event that the “revolution" in
Alaskan street methods takes place, it,
will be the first t:me in the first time
ip the history of Alaska a ‘traffic
cop" has been placed on duty, and
i again the old sourdoughs will rub
| their eyes and pinch themselves to see

NO SPELLING BOOKS IN
PHILADELPHIA Pl'ULIC SCHOOL j
SAX FRANCISCO, Juno IT— Hope
adolphia public schools have no spoil
ing books.
And spelling books have been drop
ped. say local educators, because they
start with ‘‘cat" and “rat\ and in-j
elude similar words seldom used in
correspondence and business.
Until a spelling book has been com
piled that uses the words that are
most frequently used in business and
private correspondence, Louise Nus
haum, Associate Superintendent of
Public Schools, announces that public
schools here will compile their own
lists of words.
The spelling vocabulary taught an
average public school pupil is 2,500
words. This is five hundred more than
was found in an investigation of.
words used in 100,000 business and
personal letters.
