Delegate-Elect Dimond is exhibiting a very com- mendable sense of his responsibility to the people by making a tour of Alaska before leaving for Wash- ington. He has visited Seward and Anchorage al- | ready and will visit McGrath, the Iditarod country, Nome, Fairbanks and other points in the Second, Third and Fourth Divisions before coming to South-| east Alaska. He will spend some time along the Alaska coast, and leave for Washington so as to arrive before the inauguration of President | Roosevelt. Mr. Dimond is seeking to contact as many peopl as pessible in Alaska and go to his work in Congress with as much first hand information as powbh* about the needs of the Territory and the desires of | His trip ought to do a lot toward | unifying sentiment throughout the Territory and promoting harmony and the spirit of co-operation.| He is getting started on his work in a highly satis- | factory manner. He is building a fine foundation | for a Congressional service | | there his censtituents, PRESIDENTS WHO HAVE CHANGED THEIR NAMES. Calvin Coolidge was one of several Presidents who changed their names from those that were/| given them by their parents and under which they | were christened. His name in baby and childhood was John Calvin Coolidge. When yet a young man he di ped the John and became Calvin Coolidge. His parents and everybody else used the name Calvin when speaking to him or of him and in school he wrote it that way. Similarly Grover Cleveland was Stephen Grover Cleveland when he was christened. The Stephen was not used, however, and when a young man he dropped it. Likewise, Thomas Woodrow Wilson be- came Woodrow Wilson as a young man. On ac- count of exercising the recognized privileges of one| with his own name, the three former Presidents are{‘ known and will continue to be known in history as Grover Cleveland, Woodrow Wilson and Calvin Coolidge Ulysses Simpson Grant was christened mram\ Ulysses. His mother's family name was Sunpsonl When President Van Buren appointed him to the| West Point Military Academy, he wrote his name|tion Ulysses Simpson Grant. The Congressman who nominated him to the President for appointment knew him as Ulysses Grant, the name he was known | by at home. He knew that there was another name | but he had forgotten what it was. He remembered, | hewever, that the boy's mother’'s name was Simp- | son, so he took a chance and made it Ulyssses| Simpson Grant. The name was so enrolled at West Point and was adopted without further ado, and so‘ it became in the army and throughout his life. ¥ Herbert Hoover was Herbert Clark Hoover until| about the time he entered public life. Sometimes | it is so used even yet, though beginning with his tenurz as Secretary of Commerce and while Presi- dent he has written it simply Herbert Hoover. It will probably be generally admitted that all| five of the Presidents who changed their names improved them. That is certainly true of those who made the changes of their own volition. Wilson, | Coolidge and‘Hoover not only simplified their names | but they paid tribute to euphony by mv,ub)xshlngi alliterations. And any one can understand without | second thought why simple and direct Grover Cleve- | land would not wish to carry the surplusage Stephen | about him through life. | PROTECTIVE FOODS NEEDED IN WINTER. Lack of the right variety of foods in winter fre- quently affects our health in the spring Fruits and green leafy vegetables, with their vitamins, their calcium, iron, and other mineral salts, are among the important protective foods. Although just as necessary when out of season, they cost more | and are therefore often omitted if the income is| reduced. So says the Bureau of Home Economics | of the United States Department of Agriculture. For the limited food budget, the Bureau of Home‘tenced to executign to buy their freedom.” _Economics points out' the following possibilities in | the winter market: Cabbage heads the for protective values. It is stored for winter use, it is always cheap, and it is served raw or cooked in many ways. Turnips and collards can be had most of the year in mild climates. ties, and so is kale. Potatoes and sweet potatoes are high in pro- tective value. Irish potatoes furnish vitamin C, swee: potatoes, vitamins A and C. Yellow turnips and carrots are rich in vitamin A. Dried beans and peas supply minerals, vitamins, and protein. . Tomatoes, canned or fresh, rank with cabbage and other green leafy vegetables as protective foods. Their vitamin valué is about ‘the same as that of orangss and grapefruit. Canned tomatoes and omato juice may be used when fruit is scarce. m dmu fruits—oranges, tangerines, grapefruit, sl o list GENERAL MANAGER | ND BUILDING FINE | L |hés the bias of a vested interest. |it be possible that Governor Spinach is cheap in some loc:a\ll-| lemons — are rich sources of vitamins. Raisins,| prunes, and dried apricots are especially important for their iron. Among the cheaper canned fruits, peaches and pineapple retain much of the food value of the fresh fruit Do not fail to eat vegetables and fruit as regular- ly in winter as in summer, says the Bureau. The more limited the family purse, the more economical it is to spend food money for a one-sided (diet, too heavy with breads, cereals, fats, and sweets, and lacking in vegetables and fruits. | The controversy over ‘“Technocracy” suggests the |stir made by Einstein's Relativity. It was said that ! there were only ten persons in th2 United States {that understood it. Then it was discovered that there were two more. Then came the further dis- covery that if the last two understood it the other ten did not. Bullfighting is a dull pasume m Spain now but the Spaniards are not without their excitement.

(Sheldon Jackson School Verstovian.) This One Year Plan, originated by the students, was printed on cards and placed in the hands of |each student. A majority have signed the plan.

(Manchester Guardian.) | The revival of the Nationalist movement in Scot- land has not progressed with unanimity of "aim. {The thoroughgoing Nationalists, something like Dominion status, claim they have made a good many converts. They have not, how- ever, as the debate in the House of Commons last |week showed, made much impression upon Scot- land’s representatives at Westminster. Every Scot- |tish member who spoke was againsi separation. The speakers were not even prepared to go as far as the declared policy of the Liberal Party. But while a fundamental change in the relations of the two countries was denounced, there was agreement in favor of a large measure of devolution. It would who are out for !be, in all probability, misleading to accept the views |uttered in Westminster as a standard by which to measure Scottish opinion—certainly as a ecriterion of Nationalist opinion. A member of Parliament But, after all he is an elected representative and his opinion must count for something. Keep It Alive. (Ketchikan Chronicle.) At the risk of seeming to harp unduly on one subject, we are going to once again make brief men- of the International Highway project. It |seems to be pretty generally agreed that no gov- ‘ex'nmental action may be expected for some time to come due to financial conditions in the United States, British Columbia and Yukon Territory. This |project, so dear to the heart of northerners, had a fair impetus and was coasting along quite nicely {when the bottom dropped out of business, and whether we do or do not lose the advantage of |{that impetus depends upon ourselves. There are numerous ways of keeping the project in the public eye pending the arrival of better times, and such movements should have their inception in Alaska. In the recent annual report issued by Governor Parks, in which that official painted a rather gloomy picture of the Territory, there appeared not a single word about the highway project. In fact, his last three reports do not give this project a grand total of more than a half dozen lines. Can Parks does not favor the idea? We should like to see the Territorial Chamber appoint a live committee with no other |job than to keep alive the idea of this highway in cooperation with the outside agencies whose un-| [ e . 20 YEARS AGO From The Empire B i 0t January 11, 1913.

For Good Will's Sake. (Seattle Times.) Just to keep the record straight, it may be noted that the same French Chamber of Deputies that refused to pay the current installment of inter- est due on the debt to the United States has ap- proved a $14,000,000 loan to Austria. To a marked extent, this extension is a “good will” offering to the unfortunate little Central European State that has been chronically “broke” ever since the dis- memberment of Austria-Hungary. It might have been wise also to have displayed good will toward |America by voting the war debt payment. “In parts of China it is possible for men sen- Over I here they hire Clarence Darrow.—(Philadelphia In- | quirer.) | _ ¥ ; France refuses to pay. “France was glorious in |war and is despicable in peace.

It is Cane whe has dene the work of the firm. He and Lodely quarrel; he storm- ily cnters Lodely out of his apartment, which is above the firm's offices, on the old Yarn Market of the town of Kings Mallard. Then he asks his mcuse-like wife to call their 9-year-old daughter Leila. Lodely is a “country gen- CHAPTER 2. ANNIE TAKES A MESSAGE “Like to0 come up to Mrs. Quen- | fins with me?” asked Mr. Cane.| *You can play with little Barbara while I'm busy with “her father.” “They said at school yesterday ‘that Mr. Quentin was dead,” re- turned the child pertly. “Well, he isn't, not yet. Don't you try and teach me my business, It seemed to him, in his sow anger, that he would do anything take any chance that remained to him, to build up again the fortune that had been snatched from his eager grasp “I'm ready, daddy.” He foliowed the child down the stairs and out of the house. . Cane began to cry as the door of the home closed upon them. She remembered her pridc at having married a solicitor, even if he wasn’t, in the King’s Mallarc sense of the word, a gentleman It only he would consent to hide with her in some big city where nobody knew them! She sat snuffling damply for near- ly half an hour and was about to go in search of a strong cup of tea when her maid approached her, thumbing an envelope., Mrs. Cane threw up her hands. “How many times have I told you, Annie, to bring in letters on a tray? And if it's a telegram— yes, I see it is—you'll simply have to get on your things and take it after Mr. Cane. He's told me that he wants all telegrams brought ' [to him at once, wherever he is.” “And where master be to, then, ma'am?” “Gone up to see Mr. Quentin on He'll be walk- ing slowly he has Miss Leila with him. If you hurry, you may over- take him yet.” In a garden full of late roses, Mrs. Quentin and Mrs, Lodely sat enduring each other. Mrs. Lodely endured Mrs. Quen- tin as the wife of her husband's senior partner, as an unsociable neighbor and as a bookish, reserv- ed woman whom in years she would never learn to know. Mrs. Quen- tin endured Mrs. Lodely simply as a noise; a maddening noise that persisted somewhere beyond the circle of ‘the dedicated thoughts. “Do change places with me,” urged Mrs. Lodely for tne third time. “You ought to be relaxin’ comfortably after not sleepin’ at all for two nights.” “Thank you, but I would rather |not move,” refused Mrs. Quentin, also for the third time. “I can see Lionel's window from here and as soon as the nurse draws up the blind it will mean he is awake and wanting me and I must run in. If you will excuse me.” Mrs. Lodely muttered sympathet- Hca]ly. and lit another -cigarette |She wished she could remember that this was a house lying under the shadow of death, but Lionel Quentin had been so many months dying and the disaster of the firm’s collapse seemed so much more actual. In spite of herself she burst out with— “What I want to know is what |are ‘we goin' to do? I mean, all Sam and I have got is my little |income that I've been spendin’ on myself. It won't go anywhere. Why, it isn't three hundred a year and Mark’s doctor fees have come to nearly that before now.” “Still, you are fortunate in hav- ing it,” said Mrs. Quentin, her eyes upon the distant window. “Haven't you—you don't mind my askin'—haven't you got any- thing at all of your own?” “Nothing. Less, even, than Lion- el thinks.” “How d'you mean?” uying Barbara »ya-n.msud-— @ Author of “YOU CAN'T MARRY~ ( “I mean that I lied to him the other day,” explained Mrs. Quen- {tin, her dark head still motionless |against the back of the seat. “You /see, I once had a young cousin, a reckless, lovable boy. A few vears before his death, he deeded a loan and he insisted on giving /me as part security some shares {he held in a South African en- |terprise. Oh, 1 think I saw the nurse beckoning! ' No, it’s only the shadow of the apple tree. “Was it a gold mine?” Mrs |Lodely gave the short, high laugh |with which she usually covered embarrassment and interest. “I'm afraid not. Mr. Cane is | very.kindly having enquiries made in Johannesburg, but he confess. ed that at first glance the shares appeared to him practically worth- less. Nevertheless, I have told Lionel that I managed to disposé of them for five hundred. It has eased his mind a great deal.” “But how long does he think thht will last you with a child to keep? Or shall you send Ba: bara back to your sister in France No, he wishes me to keep her with me, after he is gone. And the money, he thinks, will give me time to clear things up and look ‘round a little. You must remem- ber that his mind is clouded now, s0 near the er 1.” Mrs. Lodely, who never thought anything worth discussion, agreed absently. She smoked, stared at her hostess and presently burst, again into protest. “My trouble is, I don’t really understand what's happened.

Takig cognizance of reports that the famous regatta might be aban- doned this year in the interests of economy, Malcolm Stevenson of Columbia, chairman of the stew- ards of the Intercollegiate Rowing Association, declared there was not the “slightest chance” that the re- gatta would be called off. “There is undoubtedly need for retrenchment this year,” he said, “and we may not have so many crews in competition as before, but the championship regatta will be held on the Hudson as usual and I am confident: most, if not all, our rowing colleges will be repre- sented. “It is to me unthinkable in a sport so thoroughly Simon-pure as rowing that we would even con- 1891 Merry Christmas Prosperous New l “THE SQUIBB STORE" —_—m— - o — 1933 42 YEARS’ BANKING SERVICE to the People of Alaska.
