views of this section for use in con

sourdough of twenty two years stand

feet of movie flint covering various
sections of the territory and expects
to obtain fully twfcaity thousand by

expects to proceed to Europe and
carry on 'the good work of showing
Alaska at her best. His plan of show
ing Alaska only in her .summer garb
is a good one and should receive enr
couragement from all Alaskans. The
idea that Alaska is an icc burg covered
region inhabited largely by polar bears
and fur clad Eskimo and mine's is
stiill widely prevalent, in spite o f the
generous advertising given the terri

magazines and newspapers. Very few

uriant vegetation, as well as a land
of homes and children, schools and
churches. Before departing Mr.
Thelin will take a large number of
Pictures, covering the Nome auction
in detail.

Low Wats
The predicted times of high and
low* water will not always correspond
with the actual occurence of the tides,
as the water levels are often more de
pendent on wind than tide. For this
reason no accurate prediction of the
height of water at high' or low tide can
begiven. The extreme tidal range Is
2.8 ft., and the range between Mean
Lower lx>w Water and Mean Higher
High Water Is 1.4 ft. All water
levels atre referred to Mean Lower Low
Water. The monument Is the ex
treme southwest corner of Barrack
Square is 14 ft. above this datum.
During tho storm of 1918 the water
rose to 14 ft. above M. L. "L. W., and
with northerly winds in the fall It
has been 4 ft. below this datum.**
PROOFS OF LABOR BLANKS
PETIT JURY CONVENES MONDAY
The petit jury will take up its duties
in the District Court Monday.
CARRY ON.
Fellow members, do you know that
the American Legion is in a fair way
to double itself this Summer? Possi
bly tills has already been achieved as
Legion Posts thruou*. the whole coun
dinnapolis to the effect that the
"Every Member (Jet a Member" plan
of the late commander Col. Galbraith
had been carried out with mahy extra
mem biers—in one case a fivefold in
crease was enthusiastically recorded.
Our recent past membership of !«o
reached the five million mark bv Oc
tober; If present indications persist
it will !*■ nearer six million.
Think what this means! Six million
votes cast solidly for or against an
Issue should just about decide it.
Not only that but serious tminded cit
izens are beginning to know that this
great and growing organization of men
stands for -the best that is in Amer
ica. They Utilize that these men who
offered their lives for the country are
not going to stand by and see it swal
lowed up either by the aristocracy or
the proletariat.
It’s a sure bet that the man who is
willing to die for his country has the
West interests of that country at heart.
The un-lty of six million men, fled
in the flame of battle, and in the very
flower of manhood is bound to wield
a terrific influence on the future his
tory of America. Collectively they can
assail and deftat any evil force that
qan be arrayed against them, while
eviry city, town and hamlet in the
Cnjted States is the richer and safe,
for its American Legion Post.
Amid the confusion of the recent
Pufeblo flood city ome.ials turned to
ward the Legion for aid and out of
chaos of wreckage and swirling wafers
care order, servtcable streets and re
lief for the stricken. Efficiently and
systematically the hoys fought for
their stricken city as tl*ey bad fought
for theftr country on the fields of
France. Pueblo Is mighty proud of
"her boys” but not more proud of
thorn than is every Legion Post In the
country. We hope—and believe, that
evtery emergency of every community
shall produce It's Legion men bubbling
over with their wonderful energy to
do good. That sense of Individual
obligation that asks "What can I do
for my country?" instead of snsertng
ly Inquiring. "What has the United
States ever done for mis?"
Six millions of us. Six millions of
men whose fidelity to the nation has
already been proven. Six millions of
veterans not yet reached middle age
who have sworn to safeguard amt
transmit to posterity the principles of
justice, freedom and democracy. It
is beyond human conjecture to con
ceive the good that we can do. It
is for us to but to face toward the
highest ideals of humanity and un
swervingly "Carry On!"
