PARTY OF SCIENTISTS SENT
THERE ARE FORTUNATE IN
HAVING DISPLAYS
JUNEAU Alaska.—Volcanic peaks
in the far southwestern corner of
Alaska are in eruption this summer
evidently for the benefit of a party of
scientists sent by the National Geo
graphic Society to study Mount Kat
T mai, the greatest of Alaska's smok
ing mountains, and its "Valley of Ten
Thousand Smokes."
Persons who have returned recent
ly from the volcanic country to the
westward said Shishaldin Peak,
' Unimak Island, in the Aleutian chain,
was in eruption recently. They also
reported it was believed Mount Bav
loff on the southwestern Alaskan
• mainland, also had spouted as the
about the summit was coal
on
snow
black.
When the party of scientists left
Ancorage, Alaska, on their way to
the Katmai country, they said they
believed there was little likelihood of
eruption this summer and declared
they were certain there was absolute
ly no danger attached to the investi
gation. Katmai's last big "blow off"
was in June, 1912.
The party of twenty-six scientists
is headed by Professor Robert A.
Griggs of the University of Ohio and
from Carnegie Institute.
They are planning to make observa
tions of the botanical, biological and
geological effects of the 1912 erup
tion.

In 1913 Professor Griggs headed a
party of scientists to Katmai and re
turned with 'the announcement that
the crater was the largest on the
globe and that near Katmai lay a
great valley whose floor was dotted
with thousands of mouths vomiting
gray vapory gas and smoke,
valley, Professor Griggs named "The
Valley of Ten Thousand Smokes."
Instead of ten thousand it is said
there are literally millions of smok
ing vents.

Your dollar's opportunity is now, today!
Set it to work for you. Give it the task
of multiplying itself. In doing so it will
perform its part in the world affairs.
Everyman's money should be making use
of this opportunity. Farmers, for instance,
can not only feed the world; through
businesslike handling of their farms
and businesslike handling of their in

' Thrift Is Patriotism
Saving is a form of serving. It is one of the biggest
forms of national service—service to your country.
Our first president said, "Economy makes happy
homes and sound nations."
The way to start right is
to start right now! Saving
is as much a habit as
spending or putting things
off. Once formed, it is
easy to continue. But un
like other habits, it is a
good habit.

8 "LAON INFORMERS" TO DIE
Three Others Are Condemned to
Death by Default in French
Court.
Paris.—Sentences were delivered in
the case known as the "Laon inform
ers" after a trial of more than sixty
days.
Of the twenty-eight persons accused,
eight were condemned to death, two of
them being women ; three others were
condemned to death by default. Six
were acquitted and the remainder re
ceived sen fences of from one to twenty
years' imprisonment.
The charge against the accused was
denouncing compatriots to the German
authorities during the occupation of
Laon. In many cases the hiding
places of French soldiers, who had es
caped the German advance, were point
ed out, with tlie result that a large
number of soldiers were executed.

NOISE BARS SLEEP
Airplane Factories Are Not Good
Neighbors.
Franc« Warns U. S.: Don't Build
Plants Near Human
Habitation.
Paris.—With the certainty that avia
tion Is quickly to become one of the
big industries throughout the entire
world, Paris has a little warning for
all of her sister cities of America and
every other country.
The warning Is this: En,act Imme
diately, either state, municipal or na
tional, legislation prohibiting the erec
tion of airplane factories anywhere
within hearing distance of where hu
man beings have to live an,d sleep.
Otherwise, said human beings won't
be able to sleep and will be driven In
no time at all either Into their graves
or some far-away sanitarium.
Everyone knows how much rumpus
an airplane makes when it Is flying
thousands of feet overhead. Well,
every airplane motor before it Is
mounted has to be tested, and to be
tested It is attached to a huge bench
or platform and run continuously at
top speed, with hundreds of horse
power back of It, for at least twenty
four hours and sometimes forty-eight.
During that period of time nobody
living wlthiA hearable distance can
possibly sleep.
At Suresnes, where motors are test
ed for forty-eight hours, it has been
necessary to close an adjacent school.
At Puteaux the inhabitants declare
they have not slept for months.
At Courbevoie the city council has
resigned as a means of protest.
At Cllchy the city has bought a large
tract of land for the erection of a mu
nicipal hospital. Airplane factories
during the war installed themselves In
the vicinity and the medical authori
ties now refuse to let the city build Its
hospital in such a death-insuring lo
cality.
The department of the Seine has
been forced In the interest of public
health to take measures to stop the
airplane factories and get them moved
into more isolated localities.
SOUTHWEST'S HARVEST ENDS
"Sanest" in History Is Boast—Army
of 125,000 Men Employed
Business Men Help.
Kansas City, Mo.—The southwest's
harvest, characterized as the "sanest"
in history, is over. Higher wages
were paid them ever before, and there
was practically no radical agitation.
An army numbering at times 125,000
men, advanced with the harvest from
southern Oklahoma through Kansas
and into Nebraska, earning an aver
age of 00 cents an hour.
Federal officials say about 100 al
leged agitators were arrested on va
grancy charges, but so far there has
not been a single complaint of sa
botage.
College students and returned sol
diers predominated among the har
vesters. The response was so large
that it was unnecessary for side-line
harvesters—hoy scouts and high school
students—to go into the fields, al
though many business men In small
Kansas towns joined "twilight" har
vest gangs.

Bloomshurg, Pn.—When George Gib
son of Catawissa brought his sixteen
year-old son Alfred to the county jail
he did it because he wanted to give the
boy a lesson, but of the two the father
was suffering the most and when the
steel doors were closed behind the
youth the father burst into tears. The
boy confessed to taking $5 from the
store of H. E. Kearns & Son at Cata
wissa and was held in default of $300

The Buie* Model K-SU-46
[Buick Touring Coupe
[THE BUICK Modal K-Six-46 is a true Coupe model, with
permanent sides and roof, an exceptionally wide body, and
its graceful contour eliminates all open spaces between the
body and fenders. From the outside, the appearance of
the car is low, [rakish and well-balanced, but there has
been no sacrifice of interior head room. The rear fenders
are new in design, with touring car running boards. Top,
■ window casings and sashes, are fully metal covered,
eliminating the possibility of checks and open joints.
The deeply upholstered interior is finished in a new and improved
fabric, without bindings. Back of the driver's seat is a carrying space,
with another in the rear deck. Electric side lamps are mounted on the
cowl and a dome illuminates the interior. The double-latch doors
may be locked from the outside.
