This College
FartheStN North

SEATTLE, Wash -What It is
believed will be the worlds "farth-
est north" university-the Alaska
Agricultural College n School of
Mines at Fairbanks, when 100
miles OF the Arctic circle-will
open its doors next September.
Charles r.. Runnell, former federal
judge and now president of the in
stitution. announced here recently.
The college campus is situated on
a tract of land four miles from
Fairbanks on the main line OF the
new government railroad, set aside
by congress in 1915. The college it.
self was formally established In
1917 by an act " the territorial leg
islature and 100000 set aside for
buildings and equipment. The sum
proved inadequate and in 1921 an
additional appropriation of Sal. 900
was made. Most OF the operating ex-
pence Will be met by the territory of
Alaska, but 100000 will be available
from federal funds according to
President Bunnell.
The first years curriculum will
offer four Courses-agrlculture. gem
ernl science, home economies and
mining-under present plans. Spe-
cial short courses in mining will be
Civen to met the requirements of
p~rospeCtors and others unable to
attend during the full college year
The work Of the college, President
Bunnell predicted. is destined to
play IN important part in the de-
velopment OF the territory.
There was under cultivation in
the immediate vicinity of Fairbanks
last year, he pointed out, a total of
1905 tons OF oats hay. l,27O bushels
of oats and barley, 3.516 bushels of
wheat and 392 tons OF potatoes. The
whea. represents a yield of 1873
acres. This yield can be multiplied
many times as more land is brought
under cultivation through the appli-
cation of proper farming methods.
President Bunnell win remain
outside for several weeks secur-
ing equipment for the school and
employing faculty members.

DON'T NEGLECT YOUR WIFE"
 Coliseum-T onight

Nick Cogley, who plays the old negro butler of the McLane home in Gertrude Atherton's screen play, Don't Neglect Your Wife, pro- duced by Goldwyn, is such an excel lent portrayer of negro roles that he is frequently mistaken for a colored man when seen in his movie makeup. During the filming of the New Ye $ reception scene in this picture, which will be shown at the Coliseum tonight, there happened to be a Southern born gentlewoman on the set, who watched Cogley with much enjoyment. At the close of the scene she said to the director: Its really a treat 10 see a genuine darkey again. He's a regular "Old South butler. isn't he?"
 Cogley is beginning to be dubious about continuing to play colored roles. He says each time he plays such a part he looks more like the real thing and that as man think eth in his heart, so is he. .:
