This treaty has been developed by officials representing the two countries and has been endorsed by the American Fisheries Society, the International Association of Game, Fish and Conservation Commissioners, the Izaak Walton League of America, and many other groups. ( "Failure on the part of the United States Senate to ratify the sbekeye salmon treaty between the Dominion of Canada and the United States will mean the ruin of this $40,000,000 fisheries industry, states a bulletin of the Federated Industries of Washington, with headquarters at Seattle, to its members. This proposed treaty provides for a joint commission to administer its provisions, to maintain joint hatcheries, and to prescribe the size of mesh and the kind of gear to be used in fishing for sockeye salmon. Some years ago a treaty developed in much the same way and covering the Great Lakes failed of ratification simply because the friends of conservation and the farsighted leaders in i the fishing industry failed to do their] party. The present deplorable situation in the Great Lakes is the result. It is hoped that all friends of conservation will get solidly' behind the sockeye salmon treaty at once anu help to improve conditions in the welfare of this good fish.

Martin, scion of an old and aristocratic family, now Is a millionaire chicle and gum jobber in Mexico. This comes as good news to kin and heirs of the vast Martin estate, whfch is Involved to some extent In a chancery conrt partition suit, Martin's reappearance will have a decisive effect upon tlte final adjudication of the estate and hasten a division of the properties. Urge Him to Return. N. Hiil Martin, brother of the man whose sensational disiapp&arance sixteen years ago wrecked the cotton firm of Martin-Phillips company, and his attorney, Sid M. Neely, have been advised that the missing man Is alive and well. Their information came from C. H. Eldridge, a former cotton planter of Hlllhouse, Miss. Messages have been sent Martin through Eldridge, asking him to return home, and assuring him that there are no court indictments or other legal processes against him. That In so far as criminal prosecution on charges existent years ago, there will be none, as all the debts he left behind have heen paid by the family and out of the estate. The slate is dean. v No thirg* Against Him. Allegedly forged bills of lading and debts to the amount of $500,000 were reported following his disappearance. Tyler McLain, state's attorney, told the family that he had looked up tlie records. **1 found that three bills of indictment had been presented to the grand Jury," the state's attorney said, "but they were investigated and returned as non-true bills." H®' told MaHin's kin there was nothing against him. For months after Martin stepped into oblivion, there was a great hue and cry for his indictment on felonions grounds, but at the same time the powerful influence of the most prominent people was massed against It Insurance companies refused to pay policies on him, claiming that he was still alive, and no satisfactory proofs of his death could be produced* ABYflB, Flyers Must Be Bicycle Riders on Alaska Route Seattle, Wash.--Piloting an airplane Isn't all a man must know to fly the Seattle-Alaska route of Jhe Alaska Washington airways. He must be an expert bicycle rider. Planes flying from here to Ketchikan and points north must stop at Alert bay, on the northern tip of Vancouver island, and the pilot must visit the customs office to have his papers signed. It's three miles from the dock, where the seaplanes land, to the customs office, bnd Canadian officials have provided a means of transportation-- a bicycle--for the airmen. The usual procedure in the flight to the northland is this: The plane is flown from Seattle to Alert bay and taxied to the dock. The pilot climbs ,out, hops »n the bicycle and pedals over the rough three mile course, has his papers signed and then starts back to his plane. Some of the pilots have remarked that the most hazardous part <>f the Alaska flight is that six mile, bicycle jaunt. There has never been a forced landing of planes, but pilots have had several forced landings frwa the twowheeled bike.

MILDRED HAROLD had been home from college exactly two dtfys when she went to the office of her uncle. •I'm" tired of Idleness," she told him, looking very serious. "Now I've earned my degree 1 want to make use of it. Can't you get a Job for me?" Uncle Tenny shook his head, trying not to show the amusement that this speech of his pretty little niece caused. "You're not trained for office work, and, anyway, there are no vacancies. Bat, I'll tell you what you do--and what I say now is quite confidential. Among other things I'm chairman of the board of education. It was in a measure a political appointment, but my ambition is to take the whole matter of education out of the realm of politics In this town. Up at school 84 there's a young fellow--principal up there. I know something about him, but I want to know more, a whole lot more. That's a bad section op there --the worst In town--rough crowd of children. Now, It happens that the woman that had been holding the job of substitute and clerk to the principal- up there, died or got married, or something. I've heard tilings about this Bill Benson. He's a big brawny chap, played professional baseball one season--not the sort of man who would be content with a principal's job or a principal's salary If there wasn't something in it for him. "Now, I want you to go up to the school and apply for the job. Start in at work, and keep your eyes open and mouth shut You may not be able to answer my question before school closes this year. Then you'll have to go back next autumn. There's a reason why Bill Benson Is holding down that job and you've got to find it out.'! The next day Mildred walked into the waiting room next to the private of.ice of William Benson, principal of school 34, and sat waiting her turn when an irate teacher came Into the oliice dragging a ragged young Italian. "Here's Tony, come' to school again with his feet half out of his shoes, no collar to his shirt and his hands filthy. I've told him three times lie's got to clean up. This is no school for pigs. If his folks haven't money enough to send him to school better than this, he ought to go to an Institution." So saying, she hastened back to her classroom. * Bill Benson, big and brawny and a little rough as Uncle Tenny had suggested, looked with mock reproval at Tony. "Sit down, son," he said. "I'll see this young lady first" But Mildred Insisted that he take care of Tony. So Bill Benson took Tony into his office and gently closed the door. Presently Tony emerged with a cake of soap, a nail brush and a clean towel, and Bill Benson directed him Into his own private dressing room at one side of the waiting room. "There's warm water in there. Take your time and don't get discouraged," he told Ihe boy. "You can't get all that grime off the first, time." Mildred's keen eyes observed, too, that In place of the rags and leather that Tony had worn In lieu of footgear he now wore a stout pair of new shoes. By the end of the spring, after the busiest four weeks of the whole year, Mildred told her uncle she was not yet ready to make her report "But I have been keeping my eyes open, and by next autumn I can tell you." The first day of September, Mildred appeared in her uncle's office. "I've come to give my report in the case of Bill Benson," said Mildred. "Then you've found out," said Uncle Tenny, showing Interest. "He has some reason for holding down that job up there--V "Yes," said Mildred deliberately, "lie has. Bill Benson was raised in that rotten ward, as you call it. ,He went to the public schools and was taught by the teachers under principals who got their jobs through political pull. He found out a thing or two about your glorious board of education-- and Bill vowed then and there that somehow he'd get an education, and that somehow he'd get an appointment in the public schools and get to be a principal and on up to the top, and that he'd spend his energies as a man to clean up just such schools as 34. So' he worked and almost starved to get through a second rate college and then played politics with the bosses--" Uncle Tenny interrupted her at last. "Hold on there, niece," he said. "I guess yon've got the dope about Bill Benson, all right I'm glad he's only a visionary, not a crook--but how did you get his confidences? How--?" "You don't suppose he would want to keep things back from me?" exclaimed Mildred. "Why, before he'd even proposed to me--'* "So you're going to marry him?" he asked "What shall my wedding present be?" "Your help and influence In getting Bill appointed as a district superintendent," was Mildred's prompt reply. "He's been principal long enough." "It's a big order," said Uncle Tenny. "But yon didn't flinch when 1 gave you your assignment last June." And Bill Benson got his appolnt- Sammiag It Up Everywhere in life, the true question Is, not what we gain, but' what we do.
