The biggest of these territories Is Alaska, with an area of 680,884 square miles. This huge region was under Rus sian domination until 1867 when the United States purchased it for $7,200,000, or less than two cents an acre. There was some grumbling at the time by a few congressmen over "adding a re frigerator to the United Stares." But the refrigerator has been fonnd to be well stocked with gold, coal, forests and fisheries. that Alaska has proven a profitable Investment Hawaii, like' Alaska, Is a reg ular territory. In 1898 there was a successful revolution against the Hawaiian queen, and a provisional government was formed under American protec Hon." in 1888, at" the request "el the population, Hawaii was annexed- to the United States. Porto Rico, Guam and the Phil ippines were ceded to the United States in 1899 as a result ot the Spanish-American war. Porto Itico and the Philippines are de pendencies and not territories. Their local affairs are adminis tered by a legislature of two houses and they are represented in the United States by resident commissioners elected by the leg islatures. Guura Is under the control of naval officers in com mand of naval stations. Under similar naval control are the Tutuila group and Samoa, which were ceded In 1899 by Great Britain and Germany. Then there is the Panama Ca nal Zone, which was purchased from Panama in 1904 for $10, 000,000. This is governed by the Isthmian Canal commission The year 1917 saw the pur chase from Denmark of the Vir gin Islands, for $25,000,000. These aggregate only 160 square miles and are temporarily gov erned by a naval officer. Finally, there is the District of Columbia, which was organ ised In 1791. as the seat of our federal government. The resi dents have no vote for either local or national officials, nor are they represented In con gress. t i The Story of f uur states By JONATHAN BRACE XXIV MISSOURI WHETHER HI tssouri was actually visited by De Soto at the time of his discovery of the Mississip pi is not definitely known. The first authentic exploration of this territory was by the French, Joliet and Father Marquette in 1673. French settlers gradually located in 'Missouri, in 1764 St. Louis being settled. This was one year after Spain acquired from France the Louisiana Ter ritory of which Missouri was a part. Colonization greatly increased after the ordinance of 1787, f which excluded slavery from the iiurunvesi territory, as wis nat urally deflected many to the ter ritory west of the Mississippi wlio otherwise would have set tled In the north. The slavery question continued to hold the stage in Missouri history. After the Louisiana Purchase in 1803 added this vast western area to the United States, emigration increased to such an extent that in 1829 Missouri formed a state government and applied for ad mission to the Union. Bitter an tagonism Immediately arose in congress against the addition of another slave state. On the oth er band the slavery adherents pointed out that Maine had just been taken Into the Union as a free state and one state would therefore balance the other. A final settlement was made by the famous Missouri compromise, which accepted Missouri as a slave state but prohibited slavery In the rest of the territory north of a line extending from the southern boundary of Missouri to the Rocky Mountains. In deed, it wm this agitation which, temporarily smothered at that time, bur. fhrth In the Civ il war. Missouri Is In tho forefront of the important states in nation al politics as it has eighteen electoral votes for p.vsident- its area- Is 69.4J0 ; :iuv miles. ( b7 TaoClaro Newpj'tr tytsdica-.t.)

Out her moody gaze was fastened on the distant mountains. Presently, votes and 1 a ughter drift ed across the air and Allta came out on the piaua, surrounded by practi cally all the male contingent of the hotel. They paused as they passed the hammock and Harold called: "Com on, Milly, we're going over to the Rubber's Cave."' "Oh, yea, do come," gushed Allta. "Come and help me take car of all these boys." "Thank you," answered MlUy, coolly, "but I prefer my hammock to day." As the rest moved on Harold 11' gered a moment "Don't see why you will never go anywhere with Allta," be expostulated. "She's an awfully jolly girl." "That is hardly the way she im presses me," replied Milly, "but as a movie vamp she is perfect." "Well," faltered Hurold, "I promised to go, and I've got Allta's sunshade. I'll have to hurry. Good-by, Milly." From a corner of the piazza Mr. Bor den, proprietor of the hotel, and his wife, watched this little scene with indignation. "That young good-for-nothing I" Mr. Borden stormed. "Waiting on Milly hand and foot until this movie queen appeared, and then running after her like all the rest ot them. Thought be had some sense."

Presently from an open window came the low-toned conversation of Allta and Harold. "Of course I'm not certain," said All ta, "but It struck me as aueer from the first that Ut Hall couldn't see anyone but Milly Osborne. And now this letter from b says one of the professors asked hi in if he would like to go to a hotel and devote himself to a 2iung lady. They" moved awny from the win dow and Milly fled to her room.
