LEX IS START THE CAMPAIGN j
The cleanest town in the world '
is the best town to live in. Best
because it is the healthiest. Best
because it has the fewest fires.
Btjt because it is the most beauti
ful.
Every spring, Ketchikan lias a
Cle*n-up campaign week that has
always proven beneficial in that
It has served to reduce fire in
surance rates and fire loss. Aside
from that it has; increased propel ty
valu&a. This year we should go a
a'eo farther. We should make gar-;
dens in vacant lots; we should re-1
m va unsafe buildings, make clean
er etreet, alley and home yards.
Educate *h» children iu fire protec-1
tioa and clean up measures by re- I
moving rubbish and making more
attiactive and safer our hon;es
an-' business places. All this dt-1
velQ-jj a oommunity spiTit that per- j
manently ensures a clean and there
for® best city to live in.
TYUlftig co-oi>eration in this work ;
»lways accomplishes wonders. Con ;
sldering that cleanliness is the
boat life insurance, it is well worth |
our efforts. And the earlier »e
star; »he longer »? shall enjoy a 1

freedom of speech
The infliction of severe penalties
for seditious utterances here and in
oth#r Alaska communities should
havg a salutary effect upon t*?ose
who are so thoughtless or so igi'-or* >
atir as to think the present time !
propitious for airing their lack of j
patriotism. jt
Freedom of speech, one of the
greatest heritages of American citi-,
sens, is tor the time practically sus- J
pended, and this fact must l>e im- .
pressed upon those of alien al
legiance as well as those whose ad- i
dl-d brains have been filled with !
theories of government antagonistic j
to our own. For the time being the
United States is a standing army,,|
composed of every citizen living 1
under the Stars and Stripes. And |
'n » military government it is I
necessary that orders should be
ooeyed. One of these ordens is 1
that seditious utterances and sedl
tous acts will not be tolerated.
Restriction of the right of free
speech, even in jvar time, is repuls- j
It# to Americans, and is undertak- |
»n solely as a war measure. But our
people must remember that in ;
l*ndB wiere militarism is in con-1
trol these restrctions are ever in
force.—Ex

Juneau. April 18. — The semi* !
annual sociable at Holy Trinity
Cathedral last evening was a most |
interesting and de'lghtful affair, j
T' ere was a »-ood attendance, not* j
wi'iistatiding that many persons i
were our of town and others we're j
preven'ed from being! present. The
Dran spoke of the connection be* |
twetn the maintenance of the i
Church at this time and the winning,
of tks war. and read a communica- i
tion from the Church War Commis- |
sivn announced the raising1 of
$i>m>.000 toward the War Fund for
administering to the armies and j
suggesting three things which the (
Church might help in towards vic
tors- — purchase of the Liberty j
Bo-d«. food conservation, and Belf*
deual, response on behalf of the
Red Cross or any other demand, J
etc.
Earnest and encouraging remarks
were made by >tr. P. F. W. Lowle,
Robert Scott, and others, and the
su, gestion that the church as a
body help the government by the
purchase of a hundred-dollar bond
w: s enthusiastically adopted.
Delicious light refreshments were I
si»rv. J by the ladies while an hour
w.i spent in getting better ac
quainted. The finishing-up of the 1
basement as a Parish Hall was not
ed as -i i-'reat improvement, and has I
been accomplished without any ex- :
penstf.
Smoking Out Slackers.
The papers are telling of u western
Kansas pastor who has hit upon the
proper way to smoke out the slackers.
In one of 'lie recent war fund drives a
mei'tircs was lu'ld nt which the pastor
ro«e and «t'id : "We are assuming that
all of y..:i are Americans, otherwise
you woiiM not be at this meeting. We
assume '.hat all Americans stand back
of th" boys who are fighting for us.
Now we nre not iroing to ask how many
of you will give to this fund. All we
want to know !« how many are not go
ing to give. All those who are not
going to gi\e anything will please
stand up." You know the rest.—Kua
