 The city, by it's common council, is rto establish school districts" and "to proyide the same with suitable school houses, and to maintain public schools therein, and to provide the necessary funds for the schools"
 However. once the school district is established and school set up and the necessary funds provided, said funds are under the supervision and control of a school board of three members, consisting of director, treasurer and clerk, who are to be elected by the people and to hold of- fee for fixed term and until their successors are elected and qualified. Each member of the board must take an oath in writing to honestly and faithfully discharge the duties of his trust. "The said board shall have the power to hire and employ the neces- saiy teachers. to provide for heating and lighting the school houses, and ill general to do and perform everything necessary for the due maintenance of a proper school
 Subdivision F. sec. 627, Compiled Laws Alaska, 1913.)
 When once the city money has been appropriated for the maintenance of the schools, and paid over to the Treasurer of the School Board the city no longer has control over it or right to it except perhaps as an ulti- mate reversioner Such money passes into the custody of the Treasurer of the School Board to be expended un- der the direction of said Board for the maintenance Of the schools. Not only is the Treasurer of the School Board the proper custodian, when the fund for maintenance is derived from the city, but he is also made the custodian of ''all money available for school purposes except for the construction and equipment of school houses and the acquisition of sites for the same. y For the safe-keeping and for the faith full disbursement and accounting for all money that may come into his hands as Treasurer he is required to give a bond with sufficient sureties ito the school district"
 (Sec. 637 Compiled Laws Alaska. 1913.)
 While it is the duty of the city coun- cil to provide the school district with public schools therein, yet it cannot be successfully contanded that the

 The city Of Ketchikan was organized under and in pursuance of section 624 ct seq, Compiled Laws Of Alaska. 1913, and having been so organized it did, under the 12th subdivision of section 627 (supra) establish the ketchikan School District

TALES OF SUBMARINES
 WITH ARCTIC CIRCLE

From Murmansk, that new open port, which the Allies constructed with miles of wharfage and railway yards for the transport of munitions 1 to their then allies, the Russians, and situated within the Arctic circle, come many tales of the activities of the German submarines against the ship ping of the allies, when it was engaged i in that work. Since the break up of Russia, of course, this has largely been suspended. One who was there writ ing says:
 With the thaw come the submar- ines, and it is not long before the U- boats have laid their quota of explos- i've eggs off the entrance of the port. Merchantmen arrive with sides bat tered from shell fire, and tales of gal iant actions and hairbreadth escapes, when the "kaiser-fish" passed beneath their bottoms. Some do not arrive at all-then the trawlers search the face of the ocean, and bring in remnant If starved and frost-bitten crews who have been exposed for days in open boats to the fury of an Arctic spring time Sometimes they are not found at all. and sometimes the U-boat her. self meets the fate she has prepared for others.
 
 Among the Arctic ice was found the i telephone buoy of one who had missed her prey. and coming too close, her self became the victim. The buoy is only let go as last resource when submarine is sunk and is unable to upon it, connected with the hull of the sunken submarine, and by which con, munication can be established from the surface with the imprisoned oc cupants. It bears large brass plate, upon which is inscribed the legend in German:-
 Undersea boat the - is sunk here i Do not touch, but telegraph at once to the commandant of the U-boats base at Kiel
 1 Another submarine was equally un- fortunate though in different way The submarine successfully torpedoed her victim, a munition ship, whose crew at once took to the boats. In the words of the German communi- que. ''our humane Uboat then rose to the surface to see what assistance she could render" and, little guessing at the dangerous nature of the yes submarine was so damaged by the K plosicn that she sank, leaving her crew struggling in the water with their pistols in their mouths. They i'm plored to be taken into the boats, but were left to their fate by the inhumane Englishmen, fit compatriots of the Baralong."
 U-Roat Sunk by Motor Lorry
 It takes Prussian-German to be really humane, especially when he inn plodes mercy with pistol in his mouth. The true facts of the case are that the submarine rose 10 the surface to shell the stricken vessel, but unfortunately for her, the first shell exploded the latter's cargo of munitions. large motor lorry on
