gold
THE Alaskan gold of today is:
not found in the Klondike, but
in the icy waters off the mouths
of its river. Modern Alaskan gold
is salmon. The gold rush to the i
Klondike lasted for only a short j
period, but the stream of salmon i
from Alaska now flows on steadily
year after year.
The whole process of canning
salmon is mechanized and modern.
Between one fishing boat and an
other and between the boats and
the canneries radio telegraphy
and now even telephony is used.
And salmon is now vacuum
packed, a great improvement over
the former process.
Many of the larger vessels have
complete canneries right on board
so that the fish can be canned
almost the moment it is caught.
A cannery is like a miniature
city. Automatic machinery is
used entirely from the moment
the salmon is delivered to it until
the cans are packed.
An Ever Ready Help
Summer is the time for ready,
easily prepared foods. Who wants
to stew any longer than necessary
in this weather over a hot kitchen
stove? And salmon is a good
summer food. It is high in pro
tein value, and also an important
source of iodine which is a well
recognized factor in the diet as a
means of preventing simple goiter.
For people who spend their sum
mers in the mountains, especially,
this is an important consideration.
Canned salmon is also an ever
ready help in time of culinary
trouble since it is not only deli
cious just as it comes from the
can, but it lends itself to so myiy
dishes and combinations of foods.
It can be served with vegetables,
with eggs, in an omelet, in a pie,
in sandwiches and as a salad, and
salmon chowder is a particularly
nourishing and tempting soup.
Here are some good recipes for
the use of this modern Alaskan
gold.
Recipes for Four
Creamed Salmon and Celery:
Make a white sauce of two table
spoons butter, two tablespoons
flour, one and one-half cups milk
and salt and pepper. Aud two
thirds of the contents of a tall
can of pink salmon and one-half
cup cooked, diced celery. Serve
on a hot platter. This dish should
not cost you more than twenty
five cents.
Escalloped Salmon with Lima
Scans and Noodles: Remove the
contents of one tall can of salmon,
being careful to break it as little
as possible, remove skin and bones
and place in the center of a large,
flat, shallow baking plate. Make
a sauce of one and table
spoons butter, two tablespoons
flour, the liquor from the can,
one cup milk and salt and pepper,
and pour over the salmon. Cover
with one-third cup of crumbs, but
tered with one tablespoon of but
ter. and two tablespoons grated
cheese, and bake in a hot oven till
brown. Meanwhile have half the
contents of a 6-ounce package of
egg noodles cooked, drained and
! seasoned and half the contents of
a No. 2 can of lima beans heated.
Arrange in a border around the
salmon. This makes a whole main
dish with meat, starchy cereal
and vegetable, and should not cost
more than fifty-five cents.
Recipes for Eight
Salmon with Curried Asparagus
Sauce: Heat the contents of a one
pound can of salmon, remove and
divide in eight servings, leaving
the fish in as large pieces as pos
sible. Place on small plates, and
pour "over the following sauce:
Melt two tablespoons butter, add
one-half teaspoon curry powder
and one-half teaspoon celery salt,
then two tablespoons flour, and
stir smooth. Add slowly one and
three-fourths cups rich milk or
cream, stirring constantly until
creamy. Season to taste with salt
and pepper, and add one-half cup
canned asparagus cut in small
pieces. This makes an excellent
entree.
Salmon Chowder: Dice two
slices salt pork and try out. Re
move pieces of pork. Add one
chopped onion to fat and sautd
till golden. Add two cups diced
raw potatoes, three-fourths cup
of diced raw celery, one-half
cup of diced raw carrots, one and
one-half cups tomatoes, two cups
water, two teaspoons salt and one
fourth teaspoon pepper, and sim
mer until all ere tender. Add
one-eighth teaspoon soda and then
one and one-half cups salmon.
Just before serving pour hot
chowder slowly into two cups of
thin hot white sauce, and do not
boil again.*

“Morning”
(By Clyde Edwin Tuck)
Read by J. H. Lord, Viz:
Serene, resplendent morning
dawns again;
Another chance to win success is
mine.
Past failures are now gone beyond
recall;
I do not for the future’s trophies
pine—
Today holds all the blessings that I
crave;
I shall not pass it in a stupid ease,
But share my good with others on
the way,
And seek the fears of others to ap
pease.
As morning smites the greening hills
of earth,
Birds, singing, build in blooming
bush and tree,
And my heart joins their lightsome
madrigals
For duties here to be performed
by me:
I shall not falter in the heart of noon
As on the dusty way I slowly wend,
For strength will surely come to
meet each need,
If I but trust the Master till the
end.
Although each morning brings new
tasks to me,
I still rejoice that I have work to
do,
That I was called to serve a little
while
Before the dark comes and the
fall of dew;
For I would tread achievement’s
highest steeps,
Would overcome the lion in life’s
path,
That I may share the sense of
happiness
That comes with evening’s quiet
aftermath.
Influence
(Composed and read by E. G.
Hoggins)
Romans, 14:7—“N0 man liveth to
himself.” •
Man is naturally a social being.
We are all formed for society, and
dependent upon each other for our
prosperity, mental development, im
provement, comfort and happiness.
It is true, poets have often depicted
solitude as very desirous and enjoy
able. I do not deny that there is
pleasure in occasional solitude, but
its pleasures cannot be of long du
ration, for we love to hold inter
course with our fellowmen. Now
and then, a misanthrope will make a
hermit of himself. Now and then, a
man, with whose character the woi Id
has become disgusted, will himself
in turn despise the world and spend
his days in miserable loneliness.
But the rare exception only proves
the rule that man is a social being,
and dependent upon his fellows. The
world with which he comes in daily
contact makes its impression upon
tbe man, and the man upon the
world. From the time when God
said, “It is not good for man to live
alone,” to the present hour, there
has been a system of reciprocal
pleasures and benefits, sorrows and
evils, working in the affairs of men,
and man, is placed upon each by
his Creator for some good purpose,
and has been enabled by the actions
1 of his life to impress those around
him in society, either for good or
evil.
As you movo on through the dif
ferent grades of society, the degree
of influence greatly increases, until
you rench the highest standard, and
you find u single man giving color
to the character of u nation. Such
men as our own hero, the immortal
Washington, or Spurgeon, or Bun
yan, who, like the angel standing in
the sun, sent out their radiance
through the world. Our influence is
permanent. Once it is exerted, it
cannot be destroyed or undone. We
are all parts of a mighty system;
every act performed is written up
on the character of the world around
us for good or evil in the grand
progress of our existence. We may
determine what words we shaP
speak, or what acts we shall per
form, but there our authority ceases.
The act, having been done, the words
spoken, they have their effect, for
ever. In the Garden or Eden, in
an unguarded hour, the first created
being committed a transgression,
and today a crowded world lies
guilty under the influence of that
sinful deed. See here the mighty
power of an evil influence. On Cal
vary, the Man of Nazareth breathed
his last amid the cries and execra
tions of his murderers. Today,
through Him, the guilty world may
live. Cast your eyes over the civiliz
ed world, and who can calculate the
good which has been accomplished
by the influence of the Gospel of
the Son of God. And the blessed
influence still is working like leaven
in the affairs of men, and only God
himself can aggregate the results of
its great power.
We are responsible to God for our
influence. We must render an ac
count for all our acts, words,
thoughts and feelings. He gives us
the power to use and exercise these,
and if we use them wrongfully, we
are compelled to suffer for the wil
ful transgression of His laws. Let
us ever remember that we are the
followers of Christ; that His cause is
entrusted to our care", and that every
act of our lives tells for good or
evil upon that cause. There is a
mighty power in the walk and con
versation of an humble Christian.
Not only in his own family and in
his church, but his influence is felt
in the daily walks of life, and every
man will look upon him as a man
of God. I appeal to young and
old, bear in mind that you are
living not for yourselves, but for
those around you, and for God. To
the young man, 1 would especially
urge the value of his influence. It
may be that you are more intelli
gent and cultivated than others of
your age. It may be that other men
regard you with respect and con
fidence. I -beg you, as you love your
soul, as you love the welfare of your
friends, I beg you guard well the
influence which you exercise over
them. A glass of wine, taken with
a friend, who had less decision and
force of will than yourself, an in
cautious remark, an oath, an hour
at the saloon or gaming table, may
start that young friend into a course
of life which may end in hopeless
ruin. And though his morning may
have been bright and glorious, your
own hand, by one thoughtless act,
may spread a gloom over his path
way, and cause that day to end in
an eternal night of misery and dis
pair. Young man, remember you
live not to yourself, but have a
weight of influence on those around
you, which must result in pleasure
or serious and unending pain. 1
should feel that I had not discharg
ed my duty did I pass un-noticed the
influence exerted by the young wo
men of the land. Many a young
man has been elevated, strengthen
ed and urged forward in the path of
duty by the hand of a woman. But
many incouraged in sinful habits <y
those who have never stopped to
think, have been brought to lives o
idleness, dissipation and ruin.
me remind you that upon YOU rests
a great responsibility. Not on y
with reference to those of your own
sex, but also the young men wl "
whom you come in contact If
ladies of our country would erect a
standard of virtue, truth and reli
gion, if they would ever smile upon
the good and frown upon the evil
with unmingled disgust and disap
probation, their influence would be
a power in promoting the welfare
of mankind.
But you fathers and mothers, what
shall I say to you? Many a boy has
gone to his grave in sorrow, follow
ing the foot steps of a wicked father.
It seems to me, if there be suffering
in hell keener and more lasting than
all others, it must be for a father to
descend to that lone land of dispair
and there behold his child who had
gone there under the effects of a
bad influence, and as he would look
upon his boy and hear him in an
agonizing groan utter the 'Words
which must crush his heart, and ada
intensity to hell itself, “Father, you
sent me here.” Fathers, as you love
your children, remember that you
live for them, and they are affected
by your example and your influence.
Of all the influences which work
on the growing character, there is
none so sweet, so powerful, as the
mothers. Tis she who teaches the
infant lips the name of Jesus. Tis
she who points with a frown, to the
wickedness of earth, and she joyous
ly lifts her smiling boy into the
light of heaven. Tis she who bends
that young life by her tender
care into the paths of truth, or
by baleful neglect, permits it to
grow up among the weeds of
wickedness and ruin. If there be,
in this world one person more than
another, who has all the sympathy
of my heart, it is that boy who has
no mother. If there be a human
agency or influence which has call
ed me from a wicked life and di
rected my footsteps into an earnest
effort to serve my God, it has been
the influence and prayers of a de
voted and sainted mother, whom I
hardly knew, ere she was called a
way. And oft-times, in my thought
less, careless hours, memory has
called me to her bedside, when in her
last moments she pressed her lips to
the face of her only boy, she whisp
ered, “Meet me in Heaven.” Moth
ers, you little know the power of
your influence. It will live in the
hearts of your children long after
you have been called from earth. If
our lives have not been as we would
have them in the past, let us not
give up to remorse. <!ay is too
brief, the shadows of evening al
most kiss the retiring mists of morn
ing. Let us live for the present, and
each, by the grace of God, be better
in the future. We strike a chord in
this life which will vibrate through
out the years of time, nor will it be
hushed in eternity. God hep us so
to live that our influence may ever
work for good among our fellow
men, and result at last in honor and
glory to His name.
Adjourned at 12.30 for dinner.

Song, “Where We Will Never
