ist Association Is getting in the
game. This association Is not only
advertising, hut has a lecturer In the
field, telling Easterners of the many
scenic wonders of the Northwest.
Such efforts should bear fruit. Mil
lions ot tourists who have seen Cali
fornia will now head their automo
biles toward unseen wonders.
THE FRIGHTFUL ARCTIC
The (Arctic regions seem to have
been misunderstood. They are not
bleak and barren, in the sense that
most people suppose. They are won
derfully fruitful, or may 'be made so
by a little of the care which man has
lavished on other parts ot the earth,
aays an authority.
No less an authority than Stefans-
son, the scientific explorer, says that
the Arctic and euh-Arotic lands can
provide great quantities of food, par-
tlularly wool, meat and milk. He
has gone so far as to lay before the
Canadian parliament a plan for in
troaucing and domesticating on a
trig scale the animals necessary for
this purpose.
They are the reindeer, which fur
nishes milk and meat, and the musk
ox, which furnishes wool. There
are from 1,000,000 to 2,000,000
square miles, he says, in Arctic
North America, where ordinary cat
tle cannot live, tut which can pro
vide grazing ground for these anl-
mats the year around. He says that
Arctic Canada alone will support
7.000.000 reindeer, which number
would produce as much meat every
year as 14,000,000 sheep.
It is no untried theory that Mr.
etefansson submits. The United
Btatea government introduced more
than 1,000 reindeer in Arctic Alaska
20 years ago, and they have been
increasing rapidly ever eince, the
herds doubling their numbers every
three years under Eskimo care and
every two years under the care of
white men. There is a herd of 15,
tOO reindeer in Lapland owned by a
group of American capitalists. From
this herd there were sold last year
1n the American market 1,500 car
casses of 150 pounds each, at prices
considerably higher than were paid
for domestic beef.
The Canadian government seems
much Impressed with the Idea. The
railway men aay that transportation
can be arranged. There will surely
be no difficulty about the refrigera
. tkm problem. We may yet see the
whole Arctic region, and most of the
great Antarctic continent too, uti
lized for the benefit ot man.
Alaska offers opportunities for
much development along these lines
and the United States should surely
sot lag behind Canada In the matter.
Commenting on the many robber
ies and murders that have lately oc
curred, the Portland Telegram adds
that it was a great mistake to abolish
the death penalty, as life Imprison
ment generally means only a few
years on the "Inside," while those
who do cold Wooded murder "while
Insane" very often quickly recover
their mental poise when placed in
the Insane ward!

Ware Souvenirs.
Even "kultur" has Its limitations.
One of these Is brought out In a let
ter from Private Ralph G. Kllbon of
the Sixteenth engineers. He says:
1 am In a dugout that was very has
tily abandoned by a kultured' Boche.
He was kultured' enough to have a
nice feather tick in bis bunk, which I
appreciate in spite of the fact that
even his 'kultur' didn't keep It from
being alive. However, he left me his
helmet for a box and plenty of can
dles to light op the place. There Is
everything in the line of souvenirs
that one could ask, but everything I
have goes on my back, with an over
coat, blankets, raincoat, shelter tent
and extra clothes, so the souvenirs will
stay Just about where they are. on

clpal cities of France where officers
and men wore entertained at a cost
covering simply the expenses ot
operation. Tenth: The Y. .M. C. A.
also traveled on the transports with
the soldiers, - furnishing entertain
ment and canteen supplies and do
lg what it could to lighten the te
dium of the ocean voyage.
The Y. M. C. A. also, at the re
quest ot the government, conducted
the canteen, It took this against Its
owu Judgment at the request of the
commanding general of the army as
a patriotio duty in order to relieve
10,000 soldiers and officers tor their
primary dirty as fighters. It was
greatly hampered by lack ot supplies
i the government being able to deliver
only about half the tonnage it prom
Ised. In order to make good this
deficiency chocolate and biscuit fac
tories were operated in France and
such quantities of( good were pur
chased there as could be obtained
Railroad and motor transportation
was also totally inadequate to move
supplies to tho points where needed
The criticism of the Y grew large
ly out of the fact that canteen sup-
plies were Insufficient. The charge
of exhorbltunt prices was unfounded
Prices were slightly higher than
government price because the Y. M
C. A. had to pay freight and hand
ling charges; 'but the canteen wa
not run for profit, on the contrnry
was a source of loss from the outset
to the association. A contusion ol
coins has also led to mlsiindcrtand
Ing. The French centime Is abre-
viated rent. It's value was a little
less than one-fifth of a cent. Many
men undoubtedly confused It
the American cent and thought they
were paying 60 conts, for Instance,
for a bar of chocolate, which was ac
tually costing them about 9 cents.
Many men doubtless . expected that
beause the folks at home were con
tributing large sums ot money to
the Y. M. C. A. everythrng would be
free. It was never expected, how
ever, that the canteen service would
be a free service, and as a matter
of fact, Ifcould not be. The value
of goods handled on the French rail
roads alone In eight months begin
ning June, 1918, was over $100,
000,000. It would have required at
least half a billion, probably near a
billion dollars to fctve mainlined a
free canteen service for the entire
army. The money contributed was
used for the construction of huts and
for the entertainment, athletic and
other features of the work, although
several millions of dollars of canteen
supplies were given away entirely
free to men under the stress ot com
bat conditions.
