ANCHORAGE, Aug. 26.-While thousands Of persons are abandoning assured positions and stable business interests in Alaska for temporarily high wages and uncertain trade condi- tions in the States, one resident of Anchorage imperiled his life to stay in that was an hour out of Anchorage on her voyage to Seattle he jumped overheard and swan ashore. the dis tance he negotiated in the cold waters of Cook inlet being estimated at iif- teen miles. He was fourteen hours reaching land. His voluntarily-im- posed task was accomplished without the aid of log. stick of timber or any other floating thing. His absence from the vessel was noted soon after he had leaped over the side, and on the arrival of the craft in Seward the fact of his disappearance was tele- phoned to Anchorage. Just a short while before the receipt of the mes. sage he had returned to Anchorage, and assurance of his safety surprised and elated everybody on the south. bound boat.

PUBLIC DISCUSSION
O
8 AN APPEAL FOR
8 CHRISTMAS GIFTS.
.


To The News Scimitar:
For a number Of years Tuskegee In
stitute, through Its offshoot schools, its
graduates and former students, and
through the Jeanes fund workers and
teachers in Rosenwald schools, has dis
tributed among the colored children Of
the South many Christmas remem-
brances Of one kind and another which
have been sent to us for that purpose
by generous friends of the institute.
The colored people Of the rural dis
tricts of the South, I am glad to say,
have given freely OF their meager re-
sources, as well as of their time, to
help In the various war relief nov
ments. To many of them this has
meant much sacrifice and privations and
In many such homes and others there
will be little to remind the children Of
the happy Christmas season.
I shall be glad, through the Tuske-
gee institute, to continue to act as the
intermediary through which our many
friends may transmit their gifts TO
these children, and to take pains to see
that they reach those who are worthy,
distributing them over as wide a Sec
ton Of the South as possible.
Anything whatsoever. n matter how
inexpensive, may brighten a home which
otherwise might be neglected at the
Christmas season. Very truly yours,
