In the last fifty years we have achieved more in bridge engineering and construction than in all the centuries that have gone before. We have developed an artistic taste which demands that and strength. The recognition of the fact that monumental bridges are indices ‘of progress and civilization has led to a new era in design. The architectural effect is fully as important as the bridge's durability Most people will agree witn tnose Hunter Col- lege girls in New York, who declare that comfort and interest in the classics and art are advanced F ; “ ey The city that builds an ugly bridge is lacking by short skirts.

Mr. Steinman has given us something to think about. MASSACHUSETTS TO STAGE VITAL | RO LSRR 0 T e BATTLs. | A Labor of Love tor Alaska. At the next election, it is now conceded, Massa- chusetts will vote upon the question of repealing her State Prohibition enforcement law. It is gen- erally believed that the measure will be repealed at the referendum election verified petitions for which have been filed. That would place Massachusetts in the same column with New York, Maryland, Wisconsin, Mon- tana, Rhode Island, Connecticut and the other States which have no law that would authorize them to co-operate with the Federal Government in Prohibition enforcement. So great is the interest in the impending strug- gle that the Drys, who have pretended to take no part in previous referendums, are preparing for the battle, and propose to make a last ditch fight. They have lost so many contests of this kind that the Anti-Saloon League leaders admit that it Massachusetts should join the other great States in what they have called “nullification” it would be a signal for Pennsylvania, Tllinois and other States to fall in line. In fact, many Drys admit that if Massachusetts repeals her Prohibition enforce- ment law the demands for modification of the Volstead and other laws will become so great that they will be irresistible. (Seward Gateway.) The work of Otto W. Geist, Collector for the Alaska Agricultural College and School of Mines, of the past four years is one of the finest examples of love for one’s adopted country, ever recorded in the North. With the personal cooperation of that esteemed gentleman and brilliant scholar, President Charles E. Bunnel], who has headed the Territory’'s finest seat of learning since its incep- tion, Mr. Geist devoted charge—to the collecting of specimens for the Col- lege Museum—a labor of love, as his gift to the people of Alaska. Had it not been for Dr. Bun- nell's financial assistance this most important work could never have been accomplished. Team-work of this sort will eventually carve out a great country up here. Material gain meant nothing. Alaska, in the years to come, will indebted to both of these gentlemen The voters of Alaska, at the coming election, should be certain that their choice for the Terri- torial Legislature, to a man, will seek an appro- priation for the erection on the Alaska College campus, an appropriate building in which to safely house and display the thousands of invaluable collection of relics some of which date back, it is thought, millions of years — thousands of years, ,without any doubt. Also for the other thousands oI‘\'aluane papers, books, etc., which are constantly being received. From this collection the complete history of Alaska, and the civilization that came before, will some day be written. How are these thousands of relics taken care of now? Most of them in packing cases piled up in the basement!

TWO TIMBER CROPS IN 30 YEARS. | As the result of foresight in leaving a good stand of young timber after the first cutting, a profitable timber crop is being harvested for the second time in less than 30 years on a tract on the Sunfish Hills, Pike County, Ohio. According to a report to the Forest Service of the United States Depart- ment of Agriculture, the Breece Lumber Company, has installed a sawmill at Latham and is produc- ing 100,000 board feet of lumber a week for use in rotary veneer work. When the last big lot of oak, poplar, and chestnut was cut out about 20 years ago, a crop of young oak, chestnut, hickory and yellow poplar was left. Where this young growth was protected from fire, logs averaging 12 to 16 inches in diameter are now being cut. be greatly MAY BE SHE KNOwWS THEM ALL.
