PETITION FOR a
 SCHOOL AT VIEWPOINT
ketchikan, Alaska, June ?, To The Honorable City Council:

hOlolilhuiI, tAldShd, JuIIt v, To The Honorable City Council: :
 We, the undersigned resi- dents of Ketchikan, believe that it will better promote th. interests and welfare of the children and the people of Ket- chikan to have @ school built in New Twn instead of the proposed addition to the school Louse on Court House Hill for lhe following reasons:
 1. The present school is over crowded. The steep, high steps which it is necessary 10 climb to reach this building are difficult, disagreeable (especi : ally in wet weather) and dan- gerous, because it is injurious for little children to climb steep stairs as 1t is liable tu cause excessive enlargement os tie hearl-also for adults hav ing tendency to heart trouble. For older girls and women it IS injurious for other reasons.
 ?. The majority of the child rcn live in New Town and there ere several more children liv- ing beyond the city limits, which will soon become a part Of New Town, and the number e: residents is rapidly increas- ing.
 3. It will be much more ec- cnomical to build a school in Ne wTown as the heavy, ad~ 
 d;tional expense of hauling or otherwise getting the material up the high, steep hill will be eliminated.
 4. Suitable sites can now be purchased in New Town ot reasonable prices, which, later, W hen the building of a school there could not be refused, will have greatly incrased in Val uc.
 5. The usual additional cost of getting material up Q steel hill is in this case increased as # would take 3 months to get Borden Street in a condition t7 haul heavy loads over it, and Il Borden Street were not usec for this purpose the contractor would have to include in his lid the cost of a railway from the waters edge and an electri' al hoist-at feast 5000.
 For the above economic ant hygienic reasons we petltloi the council to build a schoo ir New Twn instead of an ad dition 10 the building on Cour House Hill.

4ueg eERMAN LINeR LAUNCHED

Berlin. April 9.-A large party OF
press representatives left here today
for Hamburg, the guest of the Ham
burg-American line to witness the
launching of the giant vessel that is
being built for the company at the
shipyards of Blohm and Voss. The
new vessel will be called the Europa
and will be placed in service between
Hamburg and New York. She is
sister ship of the Imperator, the larg-
est ship in the world. Prince Re
gent Ludwig of Bavaria has accepted
an invitation to be sponsor at the
launching, and his son, Prince Rup-
precht, will christian the vessel.
The Europa will be $50 feet long
and 100 feet beam and will have a
displacement of $4,000 tons. She will
be equipped with internal combustion
engines and two 1,500 horsepower
Diesel motors and will use oil as fuel.
There are to be eleven decks on the
new liner. She will have accommo-
dations for more than 1000 passen-
gers of all classes and will carry a
crew of 1000. Every feature ever de-
vised for the convenience, comfort
and entertainment of ocean travellers
has been included in the plans for
the new giantess of the seas Two
novel features will be a regulation
tennis court on the upper deck and a
swimming pool, Is by 25 feet, on one
of the lower decks.
The Europa will not be a fast boat,
being built more for solid comfort
than great speed. Her time across
the Atlantic will be in the neighbor-
hood of days.
The most powerful Marconi appara'
tus ever set up at sea will be installed
the unusual heighth Of her masts
making it possible to receive oil
| transmit messages across the broad
expanse of the Atlantic ocean. The
Europa will always be in direct com
munication with either her namesakt
continent or America.
