Mr. time in 1 Juneau friends who met him here and learned to love him had| been looking forward to his next with en- joyable anticipation Mr. Breede was a product daily newspaper. He began proprietor of the Weekly Tribune Hasting: Nebraska, before he was twenty of and for 34 years he lived with the paper which in 1905 and thrived.

He loved humanity and loved life. He was| human to the very marrow of his bones, :-.nrll was a wonderful companion. | Those who have enjoyed, even briefly, asso- | clation with Mr. Breede will appreciate the ed torial signed by David J. Lewis, his managing | .editor, which appeared in his paper the day following his death. It is reproduced in another place on this page. The newspaper men and | others of Juneau, whose good fortune it has been | to know this man among men, mourn with the| members of his staff the loss of one with whom | it has been a supreme pleasure to claim friend- ship. years it has TOURIST TRA L. How tourist travel scientifically handled illustrated by the ca Ltd., of England, “Cook’s Tours.” can pe built up when and properly directed is ser of Thomas Cook & Son, conducting the worldwide This company had its c back in 1841, beginning at Leicester, Eng' It was started by a Sunday School teacher who secured cheap rates for his. Sunday School excur- sions specializing in cheap trips to London. These developed into Cook’s Tours that covered all parts of the world. Customers from the United | States, boarding steamer at New York, had no more worries about their trip. Cook & Son took all the responsibility, did all the planning, made it possible for persons with to see places and come into contact that, left to their individual initiative and actlon, would have been beyond their finances. Recently Cook & Sons sold out to a new Buropean Travel Trust. At that time the com- pany had a capital of 000,000 and a banking company with of $15,000,000. The new travel corporation is capitalized for $140,000,000. It will extend its services even beyond those offered by Cook’s. It will not only convey tray- elers but will transact a banking and exchange business. Its travelers' checks will be an inter- national currency. The desire of people to see new things is back of this gigantic enterprise. Tourist travel has fong been recognized as “big business.” In Alaska, where it is still in its infancy, there are sufficient attractions to bring many more thou- sands than now make the trip. Growth will come even without organized effort, but it will be slow. Properly organized and adequately financed companies must be developed to look after the business if it is ever to attain the that is desired. small means with people own assets magnitude ROAD EXPENDITURES ENORMOUS. The good roads campaign c¢f the United States during the past six years has resulted in the improvement of some 57,000 miles of highway under Federal aid and a total expenditure of $1,146,000,000 during the same period on what are termed Federal aid roads. This comprises Federal and State and local funds which are ex- pended co-operatively under the Federal Highway _ Act of 1920. Last year the expenditures under this program were $189,000,000; in 1926, $215,- 000,000; in 1925, $221,000,000; in 1924, $205,- 000,000; in 1923, $130,000,000; and 1922, $186,000,000. The total, $1,146,000,000, represents, - reported, about 50 per cent. of the aggregate amount expended by all public road building agencies.

Adam Breede could cheer the sheer endeavor of the football player, but just as much he could admire a’ flower, a paint- ing, or a delicate stanza. Adam Breede, as his associates know, was poetic in feeling far beyond his expression, for the ion of life made him impatient of the requirements of language. As generosity and kindness were outstanding in the life of the Tribune editor, so was loyalty. He valued loyalty and his practice of the virtue begot loyalty to him. The friendly greeting from “Adam” will be missed, will his all pervading cheerfulness. But memory of his spontaneous humanness will persist for a long time. Because of his many honesty and truthfulness, upon an imaginative temperament, it would not be ecasy to call to mind a man with as many virtues to his credit as Adam Breede, i DAVID J.

Bunke Monthly, published in Fort Worth, is sponsoring a movement to convert the Travis County Jail, in Austin, Texas, into a public library in memory of Willlam. Sydney Porter, known as O. Henry, “‘the most famous prisoner ever ‘confined within its walls.” 0. Henry was a citizen of Texas fifteen years. He was three years imprisoned for an offense against the banking laws of which he always maintained his innocence. He became known as a writer of short stories before he left prison. His life in New York as a successful author lasted only nine years. Many thousands of people who read and love O. Henry's short stories will watch with sym- pathetic interest the endeavor to erect to his memory a library in the shell of the jail he once occupied. For that matter, it is good work anywhere when any jail can be turned into a library.
