Are CaSsiarWill Boom
 This Season

The Hazel B No. 4 and the Hazel B No. 3 left Wrangell this morning on the first voyage of the season up the Stikine. The two boats carried more than 40 passengers for Telegraph Creek, while the cargo included more than 20 tons of freight besides the baggage. There were also 36 bags of mail. This is the largest number of passengers that have ever left Wrangell for Telegraph Creek at one sailing.
 The passenger and freight traf- fic promises to be more lively the coming season than for many years past. As stated last week the Harrington Transportation company have anticipated an in- crease in business and are pre- pared to take care of all trans portation between Wrangell and Telegraph Creek" the coming season.

Amos Godfrey, manager of the Princess May Hydraulic Mining company arrived from Vancouver on the Princess Mary Tuesday afternoon with a crew 0, seven men enroute to McDames creek, B. C., where the property of the company is located. In the party with Mir. Godfrey are Messrs H. c. Dudley, George c. Brounlee, R. Gruve, G. H. Sealy, G. Pres ton, J. Madsaan, A. Wilster.
 The Princess May property is located 172 miles beyond Tele- graph Creek. Mr. Godfrey al ready has machinery on the ground and states that he will get the plant installed in short time and will operate the greater part of this reason. The plant will be capable of handling 1900 cubic yards of gravel per day.
 Mr. Godfrey has the greatest faith in his proposition. He says that his company has holdings that will take many years to work out. He further states that the company is especially fortunate in having all the water it needs.
 There is also considerable tim Der on the property fit for mill Ing. A fine bunch of spruce lies about three miles down the creek, just below China Bar, from which lumber may be ob- tained for all purposes.
 Mir. Godfrey estimates that tho annual output from the prop erty will be over S100, 900.

Recently there has been fric- tion between two teachers in the Petersburg school. The school board was called upon to settle the matter. After holding five sessions and hearing all the testi- mony that was offered concern ing the controversy the board decided to let both teachers go. Patrons of the school immedi- ately circulated petition re- questing that one of the teach CTS be retained. The entire school board then rendered their resignation. Other citizens of Petersburg are now endeavoring to induce the school board to re- consider their resignation and remain on the job.

MT. and Mrs. Henry Ramon arrived from Portsmouth, Ohio, on the Princess Mary Tuesday afternoon. They left on the Ha- gel B No. 4 this morning for Tel egraph Creek on a pleasure trip. On the return trip of the Hazel B MT. Ramon will leave the boat at Captain Conover's place to enjoy a bear hunt. Mrs. Ban non will return to Wrangell and during the time her husband is hunting grizzlies she may make a trip to Whitehorse. MT. Ban non has made previous trips north and is most enthusiastic booster for the Cassiar. He and his brother, Arthur, have done much to advertise the Cassiar. Henry Bannon has 125 lantern slides of pictures he took while in the Cas- siar woyears ago. He has shown these repeatedly and says that in the east the people are all clamoring for information about the Northland. Arthur Bannon contributed an able article in the March Forest and Stream giving an account of his bear hunt with Captain Conover. The article at- tracted considerable attention and was reproduced in the Liter ary Digest.

.rangell Town Council Holds
 Busy Session


 The Town Council held an un- usually busy session last Thurs day evening. There was consid- erable routine business, and in addition several important mat ters of new business.
 School Asks for Funds
 Hon. P. C. Mccormack, speak ing on behalf of the school board, asked for sufficient funds to close up the business of this term of school. On motion the clerk was ordered to draw a warrant for S700. in favor of the school board.
 Treasurer Asks for Instructions G. w. Upshaw, town treasurer. asked for some instructions re- garding the segregation of funds.
 Mir. Upshaw stated that the council had ordered that begin ming with his term of office the water fund be kept separate from the general fund. He stated that he had credited the entire amount which he had received from his predecessor to the gen. eral fund pending instructions from the council. A motion pre- vailed that temporary transfer of S1, 900. be made from the Gen. eral fund to the Water fund.
 School Improvements Wanted
 Rev. H. P. Corser, director of the school board, addressed the Council on the importance of an addition to the school building. He told of the present inadequate seating capacity and made an urgent appeal for the building of an addition to the school building before the beginning of another school term.
 He stated that the seats in the school rooms are unduly crowd ed, and yet there is not a vacant seat in the grammar and inter- mediate rooms. It is practically certain that there will be an in- crease of 20 or more in the enroll ment next year, and the school board is facing the problem of how these extra pupils are to be seated. If no more room is pro- vided and the enrollmentin increas- es next year, the teachers may have to say to certain pupils, You come only in the fore noon; we are short of seats," and to others, You come only in the afternoon; we are short of seats" Of course we do not want any thing of this kind. It is there- fore imperative that something be done before next term. He pro- posed the building of an addition 26X46 as class room and to di vide this room into two parts by folding doors, one part being used as a school room and the other part as a manual training and chemistry room.
 MT. Corser also spoke of the absolute need of a sixth teacher next year. In supporting this idea he quoted figures showing that Wrangell is more meagerly supplied with teachers in propor- tion to its enrolment than any other town in Alaska save Sitka.
 The teaching force in Wrang- ell is one teacher to every 26 pu- pills. The following figures will show the ratio in some of the other Alaskan towns:

VICTORIA - Hon. William Sloan, Minister of Mines for the province of British Columbia has given out the information that he will make trip into the Cassiar this summer.
The Wrangell sentinel., 1920-05-13

season.
 An item of news of more than passing importance was the ar rival on the Princess Mary Tues- day afternoon of a party of re- turned overseas Canadian ser- vice men who are going into the Cassiar to develop a mining prop erty near Dease Lake. Fifteen other service men who belong to this party will arrive on a later boat. These men are being loaned enough money by the Canadian government to stake them for two years. They will work on their claims as long as the weather will permit, and will then engage in trapping for the winter.
 In addition to financial assis- tance the government is also backing these men by making their claims exempt for a term of years. The provincial gov ernment of British Columbia has appropriated $250,000 for the purpose of aiding returned ser vice men in developing the min eral resources of the province. It is understood that more than tWo-thirds of this amount will be spent in northern B. c. which in- cludes the Cassiar. This appro- priation is believed to be only a starter, as it is practically cer- tain that if results come from the efforts of these first parties that other appropriations will be forthcoming.
 The party which left here this morning is in charge of Samuel J. Gothard who is himself an overseas man. The men were picked by Mir. Gothard and he states that there is not a man in the party who spent less than three and one- half years overseas, all of them having seen service in the front line trenches. MT. Gothard says that all the men in his party have records that would make interesting reading. Mir. Gothard himself has a nice little souvenir in the shape of a luger which he took off a German officer. Following is a list of the men in the party: s. J. Gothard, E. H. Oliver, Y. B. Rigley, w. Thompson, E. M. Bryant, D. G. Houston, D. R. Squair, Johnnie O'Leary.
 Several of the American Min ing journals, upon learning that a former newspaper man was to head the first party of returned service men to go into the Cas- siar, requested MT. Gothard to contribute articles on the pro- gress and development of the Cassiar. MT. Gothard says he is going into the country as a miner and not as a correspondent, but that from time to time he will let the world know through au- thoritative articles just what is being done in the way of develop rnant in tho Coccior ond thot
