NAME OF CLUB DEFINED
 BY OFFICER

The Nugget has at hand a copy of the speech made by Mrs. George D. Schofield. recently elected president of the kegoayah Kozga club at a regu- lar meeting. last Wednesday. The speech Is trifie too long to repro duce in full but those who are inter- ested in the work of the local society should not fail to secure a copy of the article as 1t is one of the best descrip- tions of the work of such an organiza ton, ever gotten out.
 In defining the name of her club. Mrs. Schofleld spoke as follows:
 The Northern Lights. or Aurora. are commonly called by the natives. 'kegoayah.' and the fact that they be- ieVe il to be the dancing of evil spirits. does not destroy the desirability of the word, Tor as we understand it, the word kegoayah' is name corresponding to our name Aurora so. what more apropos than the Aurora Club Ac.
 
 tsquimo community in the more north eriy part of Alaska has an igIoo con. siderably larger than any other in the village, built and used by the men as general meeting place, work shop and place of amusement; which is. in fact Tn all. essentials. club. Only men and boys are eliRihia to tbi, oi,,h r
 boy becomes eligible when he has con- tributed his first game or fish for fam. fly use. and the catching of a single tomcod makes it possible for the small boy to go to the much desired kozga.'
 Whether built primarily as a place of amusement or for one of work. We of course. do not know: but. probably the latter We can well imagine that in the very crowded condition of their little igloos. there arose the great need of some place large enough for a gen eral work shop, where. in stormy weather they might prepare for the game and fishing season. Knowing their great love of dancing and games, We would naturally conclude that when ever available, the kozga' would be used as place of amusement Thus It was determined that the word kozga' meant club-hence Kegoayah Kozga or Aurora Club. and the designation. 'Regoayah Kozga Club is a tautology.'

Mrs. E. J. Lane Critically
 III at Her M'Cabe Home
Beloved Woman Has Lived in That Camp
 Thirty Years
From Saturday. Daily)

Mrs. E. J. Lane of MeCabe is hour ly expected to die at her home at that place.
 Fof over thirty years this beloved woman has lived there, and during all that time has won and held a warm spot in the hearts of everyone who knew her.
 Her demise will be mourned by hundreds of itinerant miners, who had reason to profit by her bountiful good ness and generosity.
 For years prior to her late illness, this good woman conducted an eat ing house, where all who came re- eeived of her plentiful largess whether with money or without. It has never been said of her that she turned away a needy person, and this trait earned for her the title of the Miners Godmother.''
 Lovingly ministering to her wants are her four daughters, Mrs. D. Lag ard of Lower Agua Fria, Mrs. William Strong of Tempe, Mrs. Michael En- right, and Mrs. A. Magazines of Por- terville, Cal. Another daughter, Mrs. Bailey Edwards of Bouse, was with her until a day or two ago, when she was called to her own home on ae- count of illness.
 Mrs. Lane had but recently return ed from Los Angeles, where she had gone in order to undergo an operation for cancer The operation had been delayed too long, however, and her attending physician has no hope for her recovery.

PUBLICATION IS MsoUoTED

The Department of Agriculture has recently been informed that certain of its publications dealing with euea- lyptus have been misquoted by sew eral companies interested in selling lands For instance, Circular 97, of the Forest service, has been misrepre- sented as saying that California will in a few years be the only sourse of hardwood supply in the United States. Such a statement has never been made in any of the Forest ser vice publications and is not eonsid- cred a fact.
 The department experts believe that there is promise of considerable sue cess in the cultivation of eucalyptus trees in many parts of California, but estimates of profit and of growth have been attributed 10 the depart ment which are unauthorized. There are many uncertainties connected with eucalyptus culture, the government ex- Perts say, which the investor should take into account.
 In some cases statements falsely attributed to the Forest service in sd- vertising matter have been corrected when attention was called to the facts, but not before the mis-state- ments had been widely circulated. Secretary Wilson says he does not intend to allow the name of his de- pertinent to be used as a means of vietimizing the public, and that in future any concern which attributes to the Forest service unauthorized statements may expect the statements to be pubielye disavOwed.
