OBSERVANCE OF
 ALASKA DAY BY
 SCHOOLS URGED
Broad Significance Attached
 to Observance of Anni- t. versary of Transfer.

1 Alaska Day, which is October Is, { should have broad and deep sig < nificance to every Alaskan, declares I the Alaska School Bulletin for Octo- < Der, ss.The observance of the day /. should inspire in every man and wo.
 man, every boy and girl, love and i loyalty to this great Northland and
 to the nation of which we are a
 part it declares. "4 1 The Bulletin is issued monthly i from the office of the Territorial
 Commissioner of Education and goes to every school in Alaska. Comment ] ing on Alaska Day, it says:
 i Alaska Day, October 18th, marks the
 fifty fourth anniversary of the transfer of
 what is now the Territory of Alaska
 from Russia to the United States. This
 vast Empire containing approxima tely
 600,00Q square miles of territory was purchased for $7,2O0, ,O00. representing less than two cents per acre. The total min eral production of Alaska from the date of purchase to the year 1920. was more
 than sixty times the purchase price.
 The fisheries yduring the last decade
 alone have syielded more than forty
 times the arhouht of the purchase price.
 There is every reason to believe that
 neither of these great industries has Ireaehed the peak of production The coal and oil fields are practically unex-
 plored. These who know state that the
 aoal fields of the Matanuska and Nenana
 River valleys are lriore than equal in ex- tent to the original coal fields of West i Virginia and Pennsylvania, < Timber for
 use in the paper and p1lps Industry is
 being utilized for the iifst time in the
 history of the Territory. Billions of
 cords of such wood are situated al
 points which are readily accessible to lipresent or possible mill sites. William H. Seward certainly caused Uncle Sam l to SOW seed which was destined to bring forth many an hGHdred fold when he
 urged and consummated the purchase of Alaska.
 1 But Alaska Day should have a broader
 the addition of a vast amount of wealth to the United States As we celebrate the day we should see beyond the
 great extent of territory, beyond immed- late and future treasure. The observ-
 ance of the day should inspire in every man and woman. every boy and girl. love for and loyalty to this great North land and to the .nation of, which we arc T Irart, and shpuLd make zach Sealiz aneki wshtt 1t haeqns toi ye Ithder tho influence of American ideals and citi- zen of the greatest republic i'll the world.

again take the advice of persons living
in Montpelier and Wells River as to
good roads. Two men in Montpelier on
SATURDAY morning advised him that
the shortest way TO Wells River was
by the ay of st. Johnsbury, causing
him to go around many miles in get
ting to a bakers meeting. AT Wells
River, a man who should be well posted
on the roads, advised him that the
shortest way home was by the way Of
Groton, and that the road must be
good. The first statement is probably
right but it took four hours to get the
car out of the snow between Westyille
and the Barre Bradford road and then
the machine had to be drawn three
miles to the Barre Bradford road, after
which good driving was enjoyed.
