wh'lc 'he war is in duration. It
is the consensus of opinion that
all the warring nations need their
strong men at the front. The ad

in holding the contests at this
tfmc would be too great and war
stricken nations would not be
able to put representative teams
in the field.
People to Hie westward are using
coal, mined in Alaska. They find
i* up to the standard and there is
