"OLD GLORY"
"America For Americans
WAH TIME EOOXOMY
"Thtre is not a singly selfish ele
ment, so far as I can see, in tie
cause v.« aie righting for. We are
fighting ror what we believe a-nd
wish to be tbe rights of mankind
and for the future peace and se
curity of the world. To do this
grea; thing worthily and successful
ly jvq must devote ourselves to xhe
service without regard to profit or
material advantage and with an
en rgy and Intelligence that will
rise to the levett of the great en
terprise itself. We must realize
t» the full how great the task is
an I how many things, how many
feints and elements of capacity and
service and self-sacrifice it in
volves." : i I U u
This is a part of the appeal of
President Wilson to the people of
the United States to do their part
in this "grim and terrible yar for
democracy and human rights."
Kesponse is to be made not
merely by enlisting for service at
the front. One of the greatest tasks
enforced on this country by the
world conflict is the supplying of
food, not only for our own country
and the army it is raising but also
for "a largo part of the nations
with whom we now bare common
caufce."
This means that ever;' possiDie
energy will have to be exerted to
produce food. It also means that
everj- possibly precaution must be
taken to conserve food.
.Americans have been tgrmed the
most extravagant and wasteful peo
i>.» of the world. The tremendous
extent of the natural resources of
the United States and its posses
sions has more or leas naturally re
sulted ia our open-handed way of
living. The wealth of the earth
has Oeen so great that no reason &p.
peareii for a tint.
But conditions have been changed
by the war. There will be fewer
producers when th^ war army is
ra-<<ed and more demands will be
made on what k produced.
Economy, therefore, must accom
pany production.
Everyone can, help economise
aud help produce. The home gaa
dea and the home kitchen have
their parts just as do the big farms
vad the big restaurants. This is
what the President says la his ap
peal of home production and
economy:
"Let me suggest, algo, that
every one who creates or cultivates
a garden, helps and helps greatly to
solve the problem of the feed
ing of the nations; and that every
housewife Who practices strict econ
omy pots herself in the ranks of
thosg who serve the nation. This
is tea time for America to correct
her unpardonable fault of wasteful
ness and extravagance. Let every

THE DUTY OP ALASKANS
Tie first commandment of the
oall of patriotism, to Alaskans in
this time of National stress is: PRO«
DUCE. Produce gold, copper and
all other metals an d materials
needed so greatly at this time;
produce foodstuffs—produce it from
sea and soil.
And this suggests a second com
mandment, made doubly necessary
by the first: Avoid) waste and idle
ness and the manufacture of discon
tent and bickering.
By obeying these commandments
Alaskans may serve their country,
their Territory and the cause of
humanity itself.
—Juneau Empire.
BACON AND BEANS
In th.4 ruijh to eccdhange all that
men make for food enough to live
on, it) is slowly downing upon the
minds of men that the foods most
essential to make and preserve us
4s a nation Is, after all, bacon
and beans. That combination real
ty has created and preserved and
.made great the American people.
Of course, a few other things
have contributed. In the south the
hoe cake has been a factor; in
the west hot cakes for breakfast
have demoralized many a stomach;
o'her things have contributed —
such as pumpkin, mine© and sweet
potato pies—but the old) reliables
have been bacon and beans.

ON RETURN TO SKAGWAY

that still lies in the great clefts
on the south side of the mountain
monument to the Arctic Brother

ing to Max Kollm, artist and dis
coverer of the order's natural in

wa™ *o spend a part of the summer
sketching lake and mountain scen
ery rf the Skagway country.
Mr. Kollm Js accompanied by Mrs
Kcllw. They arrived on the steam
ship Jefferson of the Alaska Steam
ship company. For the past year
they have beeu at Anchorage. Mr.
and Mr>. Kollm are now at the Pul
len House but intend to reut a
house for the summer.
Members of the Arctic Brother

from the order's lodgeroom, first
discovered the letters thlat have
given A. B. mountain its name
He is a member of the Arctic Bro

charter and an artistic certificate

F< r twenty years Mr. and Mrs.

and mushed through the interior
of Alaska. In these journeys Mr.
Kcllm has gathered a great fund

The spirit of America awake—
The spirit which forever will Invoke
Justice and peace, but will not for the
sake
Of peace yield up the birthright of her
sons
Or turn from Freedom's path at other's
word.
Though silence long has brooded o'er her
guns
And rust has dimmed her never van
quished sword.
Outworn her patience, there baa tome a
time
To choose a stronger virtue for her
guide.
Now were she pati^pt It would be a crime
When sacred human rights are scorned.

i No word of hate, no boast is on her lips;
Only to Justice now she makes her
pleas.
Grimly she waits the word when from her
ships
Her guns proclaim the freedom of the
seas.
She gathers strength, like to the one small
cloud—
The swelling heart of tho fast spreading
storm
Before whose might the stoutest oaks are
bowed,
A brow of lightning and a giant form.
Her conscience clear, her brain as keen
and sure
As northern winds that free the fetid
earth
Of Its polluted aire—strong, fresh and
puro—
The spirit Freedom gave to her at birth.
