™ the Ban on Extravagance
Following the example set by some ol the war
ring nations, a movement ot some magnitude has been
inaugurated in the United States to instill a sense ot
economy in the people: it is a fact that we as a people
are the most extravagant in the world. If you are one
of the many Americans who have never experienced
the feeling of safety and satisfaction engendered by
the possession of a savings account however modest,
JUST TRY IT. You can start it with a dollar, and the
start is the only dillieult part ot it. Surmount that
difficulty TODAY.

HOW TOWNS MAY TAKE
UI» CEMETERY SITE25
The act of congress approved Sept.
30, 1890, made the following provi-1
sions for the purchase of parks and 1
cemeteries:
“That incorporated cities and towns
shall have the right, under rules and
regulations prescribed by the secre
tary of the interior, to purchase for
cemetery and park purposes not ex
ceeding one-quarter section of public
lands not reserved for public use, such
lands to be within three miles of such
cities or towns.
This act is held applicable to the
territory of Alaska.
NO CEMETERY SITE
FOR THE CITY YET
The tract of land out at Resurrec
tion river which the city hoped to get
for a cemetery is said to be too wet
for the purpose and another place was
being looked up this afternoon. There
was some doubt about the government
having any ground to give out there
but there is apparently a tract near
the river which is still in the posses
sion of the government.
Sl’RPRISK PARTY
The Philutheas gave Rev. and Mrs.
C. T. Cook a very pleasant surprise
party last night at the parsonage
and the pastor and wife were taken
i completely by surprise. The young
| ladies took charge of the home, anti
i timing the evening served a nice
, luncheon. Just the class were present.
