THE KEY
A11 that I craved belonged to me.
Good held tlie gifts and I the key;
It held them waiting my command,
And yet I would not understand;
In petulance and discontent
Pull many a wasted year I spent;
1 cried. "How cruel is the fate
That bids me work and weep and
wait
For things that make life worth the
living;
N'or rob tlie giver in the giving.
A Utile joy. a little wealth,
Kesult tor (oil, abundant health;
A chance to do. a chance to be"—
And then 1 looked and saw the key!
llight in my heart I carried it;
Divinely fashioned, formed to fit
The lock of Good's great reservoir
Which holds the things I hungered
for.
The key was Love—puro gold, a
-crust
With glittering gems of faith and
trust.
It fits all doors, it turns all locks.
It leads the way through walls and
rocks.
It lifts the bolt. unbar3 the gate
And shows us where life's treasures
wait.
Oh: are there heights thy feet would
press?
Seek" Lore, the key to all Success.

Hopes to Leave

About Holland.

Said To 15e Planning "Tips"
For Tlie Benefit Of
Kaiser's Son.
I'aris.—The former German crown J
prince intends to leave Holland ear- ■
ly in the spring, but tlio when, how |
and whereto of it and also whether
the decision was taken at the request
of the Dutch government have not
yet been determined, according to
dispatches from Doom received here.
Although the Dutch government
d' liicd recently that it had asked
the kaiser's heir to do his intriguing
elsewhere. It is known that certain
of'icial at The Haguo consider the
crown prince far too talkative. They
fear that his constant wanderings
about Holland, even under surveil
ance of the Dutch secret police, will
some day cause the government an
noyance which would be easily
avoided if the crown prince were to
get a substantial hint to the effect
that ho has worn out his welcome
as a political exile.
One of the Dutch under secretaries
of state is reported to have visited
the crown prince at AVieringen re
cently to arrange the details of the
transfer to "some unnamed destina
tion."
Although the French foreign office
has not yet been asked to express
its views on any movement of the
royal exiles to another place of asy
lum, it is evident that Dutch offi
cials are not as satisfied with their
royal visitors as they might be.
In parliament this week Foreign
Minister Van Karnebeek was ques
tioned concerning the present status
of the former kaiser and his eldest
sou. The foreign minister replied
that J. B. Kan, secretary-general of
Dutch governmental affairs, had
been instructed to carry out the
regulations now in force or any
wnich might I c taken to restrict tho
actions and lihotui of the Holien
z vierns. Buctr.sc i»t" th® position^
tlicy held, the foreign minister s-i.l
both the forme r kaiser and his sen
v,\ st he considered aa foreigners,
and they must, therefore, be satisfied
with the restriJ'i n-s i-laced 'Ji-on
them.—Ex.
HIUT1SH COLU5IBIA GETS A
2,000,000 DOLLAR LOAN
Victoria.—British Columbia bor
rowed $2,000,000 at a new low cost
of 5 >s per cent. today when the
Hon. John Hart, minister of finance,
sold bonds for that amount at ten
der.
Fourteen syndicates of bond houses
and banks from all parts of Canada
and the United States competed for
the British Columbia bonds.
The highest tender was from the
Dominion Securities Corporation of
Toronto, with a hid of 103.77 for live
years, C per cent, bonds. Tho bonds
are payable in Canada and the
United States as to interest and
maturity.
At the price of 103.77 paid the
province for these bonds, tho cost to
British Columbia will bo per
cent. The last lot of five-year bonds
sold some three months ago cost
the province 5.S4 per cent. An issue
put out shortly before that cost
around G per cent.
The $2,000,000 is to be used un
der the Soldier's Settlement Act and
for main trunk roads.
The annual Juneau excursion at
White Horse will start on Friday the
27th of this month. Word has been
received here that there will be a
grand celebration in the Canadian
town to mark the "opening of navi
gation" on the 2Sth, with a baseball
game between the Whitehorse team
and a Gastineau channel nine of
picked ball tossers.
The sporting event promises to be
hard fought and the center attrac
tion. So far the Juneau aggregation
has always triumphed over the Yu
kon territory outfit, and the Canadi
an boys have made up their minds
to fight all the way to the end of
the ninth inning, to "win the pen
nant" this year.
The good ship Alma will be char
tered for the trip, and is now being
overhauled for the event. Music will
be furnished by the Scotch orchestra
and everything will be done by the
management to make the trip a rip
roaring success from start to finish.
—Ex.
young people danced and played j
game as the evening's amusement j
and the hostess served a very deli- [
clous supper. The hospitality of j
the hostess was extended to the
Misses Evangeline Kasmuson, Mary
Pullen, Bertha Selmer, Emma Mat
thews and Nancy Lynch; the MeserB
Jack Kirmse and Prosper Ganty. '
The latter part of last week, Mrs.
Kenneth Hanan, assisted by her sis
ter, Miss Elsie Goodger. entertained
with a delightful lea. The guests
took their sewing and enjoyed the .
pleasure of friendly gossip eo dear j
to the hearts of all interested in the ,
welfare of the town and its people.
Those who enjoyed the hospitality j
of the hostess were: Mrs. L. H. ;
Johnston. Mrs. Howard Ashley, Mrs.
Moffat, Mrs. W. A. Pries, Mrs. Eric
Telfer and Mrs. E. H. Owen.
All Skagway is getting ready to he j
present at the Whitehorse entertain- j
ment of the 2Sth of the month. Th>i j
W. P. and Y. B. has with much
generosity placed the fare for the '
trip at snch a low figure that a'l |
may have the pleasure of attending j
King George's birthdey celebration. [
Accommodations can be securest es- j
peciallv the "eats" for never ju the
history of the town has Whltehorse
been so well prepared to care for
outside guests. ■
<j „ „
Tonight the W. 1'. A. club will |
be open for tiie Base Ball Dance. All
people are invited to he present and '
enjoy the entertainment. This dance |
is the usual annual given for the ;
purpose of outfitting the ball team |
with such things as are deemed nec- :
essary. It is hoped that a good at
tendance will fill the club roon. and j
enrich the purse of the lmse ball j
boys. As the ball games are of in- i
terest to all who love clean sport, it i
is asked that as many as can pur- j
chase tickets whether they attend J
the ball or stay at home. Anything I
in the way of sports that will bring j
a crowd to Skagway will help each I
and every one.
