; FOR ALASKANS
GOING TO WAR!
Tin organization of a regiment of
engineers from Alaska, by Major
Mears. will give all Alaskans an ex
cellent opportunity to see quick ser
vice in Kuropo.
l*be regiment will no doubt be
mobilized at American Fake, where
I Mime forty thousand men are now
drilling. 'Hie great demand for engi-j
neers in France, will without doubt,!
be responsible for thjs regiment’s
iasty formation and entrainment for1
some port on the Atlantic, prior to
sailing for France.
Ml those wishing to join this regi-j
,m nt should give their names and
addresses to Major C. E. Dole, pur
chasing agent for the Alaskan Engi
neering Commission in Seattle, or H.
I\ Warren at the Hell Street Pier in
! Seattle.
Major Meurs does not wish those
desiring to join this regiment to feel
that they are in duty bound t<> do so.
because they wen* formerly with tin*
t o*n.li.-sion in Alaska. H** desires
t at • n \ should follow their own p* r
<ni’il inclinations.
Now that a regiment is to be form
ed from Alaska the question at once
. rises what are we to do for those
om Alaska at the front ?

STEREOSCOPIC
WAR PICTURES
TO BE FILMED
WASHINGTON, Jan. :i. — The Sig
nal Corps* plans to make a stereosco
pic picture record of the war for edu
cational purposes. It is hoped por
1 sons who have the necessary high
I grade matched lenses will make them
I available for this use by the Govern
ment.
Many libraries and educational »n
j sMtutions have recognized the advan
tage of stereoscopic pictures ove« oi
dinary photographs for teaching pur
poses, and have sets of them. It is
' intended to make such sets of picti n s
of the piesent war available at com.
The matched lenses of a stereosco
pic eauvra take two slightly liitfoent
views of a subject, as the two eyes
• do. Seen through the stereos'Mp*1. the
combined views give a vivid imp e>
sion of depth which creates -1 * c*tig
i psychological cirect of reality. Look
. ing at a stereoscopic picture on ‘ s****s
: a subject with its distances just ex
i uctly as it \sa.s at the instant .1 was
taken, except only for color. No suc
i cessful •‘faking” or “'-et.mi lling” is
possible on a stereoscopic photograph.
