That is the general verdict of those who attended it. The exhibits were excellent, the carnival features were good—better than ever before—and the concessionaires ~did thriving business. The management of the Fair was ef- ficient and in every way satisfactory. The new building erected by the Southeast- ern Alaska Fair Association measured fully up to the expectations of those who built it, and was praised by all who attended the Fair, and as Gov.| Parks said in his speech at thedopening, the building will be useful for many oher purposes as well as for the annual Fair It will make an excellent place for athletic field sports in the winter and spring months when weather condi- tions are not always satisfactory for out-of-door meets. It will serve a need that has long existed here. Considered from every standpoint, the South- eastern Alaska Fair Association has been one of the prineipal contributors to Juneau's remarkable year of achievements, and its record this year is a guarantee that it will continue to contribute to the welfare of the community and South- eastern Alaska. JOHN H. BUNCH. One of the best informed and sirongest men engaged im Alaska transportation passed from the active scenes of life when John H. Bunch dled Saturday in Seattle. He joined the Alaska Steamshlp Company in the days of the Klondike stampede and remained with it until the end, rising to the position of Traftic Manager. No man contributed more to the building up of that company's business on a sound and practical basis. He was probably the best advised man in the Alaska transportation field. With an an- alytical mind and passion for details, coupled with vigion, he was the essence of practica- bility. _ The mews of Mr. Bunch's sydden death cre- ated a profound shock yesterday when news of it reached Juneau. He had never been what has been termed a mixer. He was quiet and re- tiring, almost taciturn, in his association with people, and, therefore, was not so well under- stood by the general public as some of the other high transportation officials, but those who were closely associated with him and others who had come to know him well were his firm friends and warm admirers. The loss to his company and the people of the North through his death is severe, indeed, and will be felt for a long time. 4 SRR ABANDON PROHIBITION OR GIVE US MARTIAL LAW AND A LARGE ARMY. Senator Edge of New Jersey proposes that a _special tax be' levied in the United States to produce $1,000,000,000 a year with which to He declares that it cannot ‘be done unless the country is overwhelmed by an armed force. In making this proposal and state- ment, the Senator has the word of nearly every one that has had high position in Prohibition ment ranks to rely upon for backing. Assistant Secretary of the Treasury Lowman says it will take fifty years of good work to make the United States dry. Vnited States Attorney Buck- ‘ner for the New York City district, selected eapecially for the task on account of his energy and special qualifications, before he retired, said York City alone ‘“‘measureably dry.” ‘drews, Col.

In publishing the results of experiments which prove that fat men are less efficient that slim ones the Nelson Laboratory may have aided the cause of efficlency but it assuredly has struck good humor a blow below the belt. For it is no superstition that there is an intimate relationship between humor and exces- ve avoirdupois. The fat man, before and since Sir John Falstaff, has been the inspiration of most chuckles and guffaws. Perhaps the first Jaugh emitted by man was at the expense of some waddling brother. What is even more ignificant, most of the world’s great himorist: e not conformed to the ideal of a contem- {porary Paris modiste. Of Aristophanes and other ancients we know little, but of Rabelais and, more modern humorists there can be no doubt Babelais’s admiration for portly characters proves that he was no perfect 36 himself. Nor is any very different from him in this particular. Surely G. K. Chesterton, Irvin Cobb and most of the rest of the fraternity bear no resemblance to the shapely gentlemen in tail- | j ALONG "LIFE’S | I | DETOUR l’ “ q By SAM HILL The Without and Within of Love When a younk fellow swears h can Not live without his love it makes us grin— | For when they've wed we know they'll find His income they can never live within.

Should men, therefore, heed the warning thatt slim ones and fat ‘men are less efficient than thereupon being to reduce? For the sake of humor, we should answer with a determined negative. 1,000,000 Go to School. (New York World.) The traditional picture of the schoolboy with his shining morning face ‘‘creeping, like snail, unwillingly” to a iplace of torture, fitted fairly well the British school of Shakespeare's time, with its cru€l discipline, or the rural American school of times past, presided over by some rod- prandishing Ichabod Crane. It does not fit mod- ers American conditions. It does not fit New York City. If an anticipated total of 1,089,000 young people were dragged unwillingly today to register in a place of tedium or torment the spectacle would be tragic. That is not the case. Truants there are, very few in proportion to an army so vast, but most of the pupils realy go eagerly, welcoming the change from a summer of in- action. Whenever the State ceases to impose upon ecity children the absurd long vacation which was devised to provide child labor on the farm mnobody will welcome the reform more gladly than the children themselves. More than a million children in a single city, more than 25,000,000 enrolled in public sehools alone in the Nation—this is the Grand Army of the Republic. It confronts New York City, as other places, with big problems of taxation and expenditure, but the taxpayer will have to make up his mind to it. The fruit of the tree is worth the tending. Parents of the Future. (Kansas City Star.) 1 airplanes come into general use as pleasure vehicles in the future it will serve the parents of the mext generation right. Then they will be able to understand why we parents who were brought up in buggies are inclined to fret a little when our children are spinming around in automobiles. These children of today will be the old- ftashioned people of that time and they will tell their youngsters how they were satisfied to re- main on the ground. We didn't sail around in the air when we were young, they will say, but were content to drive on the streets at forty or fifty miles an hour. Bach younger generation can be trusted to do something to cause the parents of the time to become prematurely gray. Canada Pulls a Smart One. (Milwaukee Journal.) You ought not, we say to Canada, to allow your dealers to sell liquor to men who cannot get it to us without breaking the law. You ought not, Canada replies, to allow your crooks to sell bad liquor to our crooks, for that tran- saction is against your own laws. Canada hasn’t helped us much to make our Prohibition effective. But she says that’s nothing to what we do to her liquor regulation—besides spolling the taste bf her drinkers. 1t European towns do put up huge letters spelling the town's name, when the American fiyers get above a town in Wales they will know where they are, but trying to pronounce the name may cause them to go into a tailspin. — (Houston Post-Dispateh.)
