HAS KEPT TOUCH WITH PAST Old Tarrytown on the Hudson Refuse to Become Part of Modern Hustle and Bustle. Sufely aloof from the rush and scramble which typifies Long Island today lies Tarrytown on the Hudson. The solidarity unci leisurely prosperity of Tarrytown have kept It from being swept along with the stream of world ly progress. It hus tarried. It has kept Its legends mid traditions, Its landmarks and historic buildings. It still likes to look ut the monument marking the spot where Andre, the spy, was captured. It likes to recall with thrills of local pride "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow," until It sees again tho headless hnrsi-uiuu pursuing the luck less Ichaboil. There are other specters of which the locality can boast, notably that of Andre, also rm horseback, who can be heard ut night riding at high speed up the road on which he was captured. At the fatal spot the sound of hoofs ceases, naturally enough, leaving the chance hearer to scuttle home Willi unseemly liate. Night is an "xeellent time to go sight seeing In Tarrytown, There is the Sleepy Hollow graveyard, which no vis itor would wish to miss, and which has au additional charm whin viewed by moonlight. There Is always the possi bility that some illustrious resilient of the pluce may come forth to take the air und wander once again to his old home or to the market place. Swore Ju:t Like a Native. Lieut.-C'ol. Olive;- Dockcry, in charge of training of ihe I'l.'Mh Depot brigade, ut Camp Cutter, Mich., is from the South and has something of the char acteristic Southern accent. The other day when 'uik) negro recruits arrive ,,1 from Alabama Colonel Dockcry ran across a negro sergeant who was marching a group of the new men along in the rain and reproved the sergeant for taking his men out In such weather and ordered them hack In the barracks. Just as they disap-i peared In the doorway one of the shiv ering little negroes from the South turned around ami said, "Dat sholy am a kind-hearted man. He cusses like i he come front down home. Dat boss make me so homesick dat I believe I Is goln' to cry." l!oo-hoo! Boo-hoo! i rv. tu., i , I tsubjr I I ca L uica ileal, f If ollh. it ,.ou(1 . impressed upon ' racii und everv one of us i hat we must ; do our duty, whatever that duty may be and wherever it may be, just as well as we possibly can, what a tiv- metldoUS tiling it Would be. It has been said that If the American : people would save just 10 per cent of what they have formerly spent the war would be won and victory would be j assured. The girl In the home can do : a tremendous part in the w inning of ; tills war she can save In many ways, i sliu can work In many ways and she i does not have to have any special tul i eut for it either. i Character and Industry, these are the things that count, these are what make life really worth the living. Scripture and Profanity Mixed. The Bible and profanity were strangely Intermingled in the congress a few days ago.

The coast forests of southern and southeastern Alasku are Included In the nntionul forests of Tongass and C'hugach, which comprise over ninety-1 six million acres, a large proportion of which Is covered with trees. Of these, Sitka spruce averages about '20 per cent and western hemlock about 75 per cent. The spruce are occasion ally six feet in diameter and 1"0 feet tall. The Interior forests are prac tically all found in the drainage basins of the Yukon and Kushokwlm rivers, and It Is estimated that there are forty million acres bearing trees largt enough for cordwood and logs.

SKJAIl HOARDING WILL MEET WITH PKOSECITIO.N An appeal to tho patriotism of the people of the state as well as a warn ing as to tho consequences to be ex pected if rules and regulations are not observed is made by tho state I food administrator, W. B. Ayer, in a ttatenient to the public: "There are always a few people who display a little Impatience with the changing rules of the food admin istration. They forget that food con ditions are constantly changing as well as transportation and shipping conditions. "At first It was meat, wheat, sugar and fats, but for several months tho 1 enple of this coast have not had meatless days. Then the wheat situ i'tion became alarming and we were dyked to go without wheat flour en tirely. That situation is improving ar we approach the n.ew harvest, so we are returning to the aO-aO rule. Sugar is now the great food problem, irising from the necessity growing out of the fruit canning season, (oupled with submarine sinkings over 27,noo,mn) pounds were lost i:i June off the Atlantic seaboard and shortage of ships to transport raw MHpllos.
