ON  WAY  TO  ALASKA
The
Boys   *Saw    Many    Interesting
Things on Their Way to
Skagway.
We aire •still traveling on fhe 'C. P.
railroad ami slept late, as dinibing
mountains did not. seem to agree 'with
us. As a ^result some, missed 'breakfast.
We saiw the' Great Divide this
morning. It is marked by a lattice
fence. On one side in big letters it
says "Alberta" and on "She other
"Britlsli Columbia." It is 'the point
where two fivers meet, one, flowing
toward the (coast and the 'Other inland.
We''also saw the Kicking Horse
river, called* so because of 'the image
of a kicking horse carved'out "by nature in file rock. It stanfis out very
.prominently.
. We .passed through a series of tunnels, the "longest being fiveirilles and
costing $5,000,000. It toos "IO minutes
•to -go •thrc-sigh it. The windows and
doors were all tightly closed, for. the
tunnel is filled with a deadly
BJvea 'then it made, us cough-.
tin can. I lost some of my appetite
for salmon after watching the, Jans
and Chinamen at work handling
them. —
The warning whistle on the boat
sounded and we rushed aboard and
are off. During the day we sighted a
whale. He came .up within 200 yards
of the boat, lolled around and spouted water. I guess he decided we were
bigger fish, than he was, so wisely
left the field to. us. Later we saw
another fish .nearly as large, called
the blaekfish.
At Prince Rupert, our next stop,
we were taken to see the fish storage
plant We were greatly imprsssed,
watching the fishing boats load and
unload, and pack hilibuti Thtei fish
are sorted for the different markets,
and yoiu will have a thrill of pride
when I tell you the finest come to
the: United States.

Outr boa* took the inla-n-d passageway for Alaska. It is. only exposed
to ifche ocean three times. We grew
to feel quite at -home on it in the-
four days it took to make the trip.
We played all kinds of1 .games, but
liked shuffleboard best. This ganie
is played on declc with: long sticks,
which are .used to shove round blocks
of wood into, an. area which: is marked
out on the deck; certain spaces have
different scores for placing'the blocks
in them. ;
Our first stop was at Alert Bay-
shouts and pointing of fingers as a-U
the fellows caught sight of the great
Indian Totem poles. We visited the
Indian cemetery, with all its curious
Totem monuments.- The winged Totems of Alert Bay are among the
most famous. These carvings are not
idols, but are records of the history
of the tribe, and,each ki: - or Indian
•chief has one. These Totems are to
the Indians what a coat of arms is to
the English. ;

JUST "WHAT IS SERVICE
We bear a lot about service thSse
days, but -see little of it—so little, in
Sact, tbat it las no tangible significance in the mind of the average
person.
Just what does service -mean? '
So much nas "been, said about "Ser-
! Time With a Smile," that 'one might
;'be forgiven for replying that "service
is  exchanging merchandise  for  dollars and throw^ms In a grin."
It is really much more than this,
"liow-WKer.
It has been pointed out that the
wery foe&t example of service may be
obtained at the .garoline filling -station; you drive tap and ask for live
gallons of gas. You not, only get tie
five gallons of gas, bust you get fresh
air, water in your radiator, .directions as -to the correct road to talce
from that point on, and such litttle
extra attention as having your windshield, radiator cap and gasoline
line, guage dusted "by a smiling young
man in a white coat wbo politely but
firmly declines the proffered tip for
■the service. This is &eryiice; giving
just a little 'more than, you are paid
for and something that tbe recipient
does not ask or expect, but which
pleases him because of its very unexpectedness   and  makes  him:  want
VISITORS ARE PUT
TO 3IUCH TROUBLE
As the Result of an Auto Wreck East
of Town, Friday.
A. T. Forester and family of .Aneroid, Saskatchewan, Canada, were
held up here from Friday until Tuesday^ as the result of an auto wreck,
near the overhead bridge, east of
town, Friday noon.
Mr. Forester and family, in a new
Pontiac car, met a Ford at the top of
the long slope and the former map
chine was damaged to tire extent, of
about §500.
When the amount of damage was
ascertained, and that it would be
several days before new parts could
reach here and the car put in -good
condition, Mr. Forester decided to
turn in the wrecked car and taike a
new one. He approched Mr. Sjtark
and the deal was made..
Neither of the machines figuring in
the accident was insured. The Pontiac had been purchased in Canada
and Mr. Forester had to shell out
$350 duty before he could enter the
state. The Ford tear, as usual, was
only slightly damaged.

(From Manchester Enterprise)
One day last week J. H., Kingsley
brought to the Enterprise ofllice a
branch cut from a small maple
tree in his yard, the woody part of
which was literally alive with pinkish-gray bugs. He wondered what
to do about it. Well, we are not up
on* bugology, sp couldn't tell him, so
we placed a section of the branch in
a box and mailed it to the entomological deparment of Michigan State
college with a request for indentifi-
cation and advice for destruction.
R.   H.   Pettit,   Professor   of Entomology replied promptly,  arid thinking therei may be *many of .our read-
era   whose   trees   are attacked,   we
publish his letter giving the remedy:
"The insects prove to be plant lice
T  imagine that the tree  is  a silver
maple,   sinice,  this  particular   maple
fe apt to be attacked by this particular louse.    The spray to use is one
made   of   40  per   cent nicotine sulphate, of which Blackleaf 40 is one
brand.    Use one pint of 40 per cent
nicotine   sulphate  and   four  pounds
of cheap laundry soap in 100 gallons
of water.    The soap helps* the spray
to penetrate through the waxy powder on the bodies of'the lice and as
these lice must be hit to be killed,
the spraying should be very thorough
'indeed,   if  one, is,  to   attain   sucess.-.
Sprays put on for this purpose' are
much more effective if applied under
high pressure."
