in coin of the realm, but they do expect you to pay it by being better men and women, by being more loyal to your town, to your Territory and to your country, in other words, to be better citizens for the advantage which they have so generously given you"
 Thanks Are Expressed.
 The sentiments of the student body were given in very short and concise speech, delivered by their president, Joe Acklen, as follows:
 "The student body of the Juneau public school are glad of this op- portunity to express their thanks to the members of the board of neau for this beautiful building which has been dedicated to them, and to all that shall follow them.
 "A few regrets have been ex- pressed over the fact that there will be no vacation this year during the periods when the Taku winds are blowing, owing to the adequate heating system and thick walls. Perhaps some few of the pupils will look over at the old City Hall and shiver thinking of the time they nsed to have sitting on the radia- tors to keep warm and anxiously watching the thermometers.
 Every pupil in school has con- scious pride in his new possession, and every one from the tiniest tot to Harry Morgan feel that it is their special duty to take good care of the building so that it may be left in as good condition as they found it.
 "The student body knows that the board of education, their par ents and friends do not expect lav- ish words of thanks for this build ing, but rather they have right to expect, and to demand, and they will receive serious application to study and spirit of hearty loy- alty to the school"
 Members of Faculty.
 Teachers in the elementary school are Blanche Dyer, Evelyn Sullivan, Mamie Wheeler, Harriet Case, Ruth Seleen and Dorothy Gilcrest. In the high school grades Margaret Scott. principal; Gertrude Hellenthal, Fay Wenk, Mary Dresser, Jane Brenne- man, Marie Nelson, Vernon c. Genn, Mrs. L. S. Coombs, and Professor J. F. Sumpf.
