Just a few hours ago the Courier was liven quite authentic Informa tion showing that the rlvera and harbors bill carrying the Crescent City harbor project would without doubt become a law ' very soon. Things are shaping themselves fast at Washington. We believe the gov ernment la desirous of helping us because we are willing first to help ourselves by bonding for our harbor Improvement. It can be taken for ' granted that the Improvement of Crescent City harbor will soon be un der t. S. government supervision. We are very certain that we are not mistaken n this. It is wonderful news for us and we must "get busy" and do our share. The purpose of this editorial Is to fully awaken our people to the great opportunity giv en us. The quicker we urge our offi cials to prepare for the holding of an election to bond Del Norte coun-i ty for the necessary amount to start I - the initial construction work on our' harbor, the faster will we realize the' fruits of a healthy and lasting boom. It seems to be certain that proper as-' surance of the construction of the' Grants PaBS-Crescent City railroad "within a reasonable time" can be, given the government. Everyone of, us qualified to vote at this coming bond election should register at once and we should see to It that every other qualified person In our county la registered in time. No time Is to he loat. Every effort should be made to get the eupervisors to pass the ne cessary resolutions and take all oth er proper measures that can be legal ly taken on the 11th of this month, when they meet in tegular session. Let's not wait until the president signs the bill. If perchance there should be a slip and the bill did not pasa (which la about as remote a happening as we ean think of) we can then drop the matter. - On the other hand. If we have prepared our selves and have voted the necessary bond Issue, the federal government will take special notice of us and of our project. Now Is the psycholog ical time to go ahead with the har bor bond election. We can not af ford to lessen the good name and business acumen of our little county by sluggishness and inactivity. Let's everybody talk harbor bond election for Del Norte county's Improved harbor at Crescent City and let's see to It that our talk bears Immediate and wholesome fruit. Crescent City Courier. Washington. Mar. 8.- On April 6,! the first anniversary of the I'nlted' States' entry Into the war, the third Liberty loan will open. There will be a campaign ot three or tour week. In announcing tha date to day. Secretary, .McAdoo tald the amount ot the loan, the Interest rate and other features, such as conver tibility of bonds of previous tsaues, maturity and terms of payment are to be determined and that new leg islation will be necessary before plana can be completed. The fact that the amount of the loan la dependent upon further legis lation. Indicates that It will be for more than 13.600,000,000, the re mainder of authorlied but unissued bonds, and the fart that certificate of Indebtedness now being sold In anticipation of the loan bear 44 per cent, affords some Indication of the Interest rate. Although Mr. McAdoo made no spclflc announcement. It la now tak en for granted In official rlrcles that there will be one more loan before June SO, the end of the fiscal year. The statement concerning the date of the campaign wan made at this time. Mr. McAdoo explained, to give every community time to prepare for the big bond sale and he strongly advocated popular demonstrations of patriotism on the day of the open ing of the loan and the second year of the war.

Professor Smith believes, suyi Sci ence Progress, that the extremely pe culiar culture of Egypt was spread eastward by mariners, mainly 'Phoeni cians, for several centuries after B. O. 800. To quote the author's own words, he thinks that "the essential elements of the ancient civilizations of India (the pre-AryuD civilizations), further India, the llulny archipelago, Oceania and America were brought In succes sion to each of these pluces by mari ners, whose oriental migrations began as trading Intercourse between the eastern Mediterranean and India some time after 800 B.
