months 100000 school children were

Call for volunteers to aid in the
getting in shape for use the City
Fairgrounds and recreation park, &C
quired yesterday in the Casey-Shat-
tuck addition, was issued today by
the Juneau Fire Department through
it's chief ]. L. Gray. The deal for
the tract of land was closed yester-
day by the F'iremen and has been
placed in the hands of three trustees
to administer until such time as it
can be turned over to the City in
readiness for use.
There is considerable work re-
CURED before that can be done. This
consists of removing rocks and
boulders. blasting and digging out
stumps, cutting shrubbery and level
ing the ground All volunteers are
asked, ii possible, to bring out any
tools they may have that will be
useful In this kind of work, and to
report at 10 a m. tomorrow.
1t is hoped. said Chief Gray. that
all the work can be completed and
the park ready for formal opening
on July d, In order to this, the
work viii have to be carried on
daily and it is proposed to have
volunteer workers in the park each
evening that the weather will per-
init. Present plans call for the err
ection OF a grandstand by the time
the other work is completed. Much
OF the lumber for this, it is expected
VIII be obtained without cost from
the abandoned section of Float 3D..
1t is expected that a good crowd of
workers will be on hand to start the
work tomorrow.

boy would obey" not seeming to
consider that submission is not al
ways discipline. To the teacher it
was pitiful The childs effort to see
resulted in an inevitable nervous
strain. Through fear of consequence
if he answered questions incorrectly
he was no doubt silent at times when
he could have responded And he
probably made other mistakes
through nervousness.
1t is not only teachers who must
contend with consequences of such a
course. A few days ago | saw a
child who was i'll, scream and pull
the covers over her head as soon
as the physician neared the bed.
"If you don't hush the doctor will
grab your tongue" said the mother
OF course the ohild's fear was only
Increased. Naturally it was impus-
sible to accurately diagnose her case
ais she mad worked herself into a
serious nervous state.
Later the same ply stefan remarked
to me. why won't people teach chill
dren that we want to help, not hurt
them?" He then cited many in
stances where adults had threatened
children with "the doctor" il they
didn't obey. For obvious reasons
such a course is very unfair to the
physicians and the children who
gain such harmful conceptions.
Every child should learn that nm
pleasant consequences inevitably fol-
low certain actions. But to teach a
child to fear individuals. real or
fanciful, is An injustice to the child,
to those who are to share the re-
sponsibilitv of guiding him and to
each member of the society of which
he becomes a part II is through

Why does Alaska remain worked,
neglected and practically closed to
American business just ant time
when American business could use
Alaska to advantage?
Because, as Mr.. Beverdge would
say, the government has laid on it
the dead hand
By means of some 40 departments
and bureaus administering more
than 900 reserves aid controlling by
special laws the whole life Of the
Territory, business and industry in
Alaska are restrained and restricted
by the officials in Washington. The
idea has been to save Alaska from
being exploited but SO tightly has
the red tape been drawn. that Alaska
not only has been spared all exploit
taItion, but also all development.
The Story OF Alaskan coal is ia
miliar-deposits of 10000. 100000

resources that have been hardly
touched Secretary Fall says they
amount to at least 25,000,000 barrels
on the government lands.
One might go ON indefinitely with
the figures but it rs useless. No
body denies the wealth is there. No
body questions that, if developed,
it would promise more to American
business, more to American prosper

1t is surprising how many children
leave their homes to enter into a
larger social sphere with fear in
stEied into their thoughts. If all
mothers could realize that fear is a
most menacing disease surely fewer
children would enter the kindergar-
ten with trembling.
Most kindergarten or primary
teachers have at some time felt the
pang of seeing child show fear.
Frequently a teacher wonders why
she does not win the whole-hearted,
loving response which most children
so readily give to the efforts of a
sympathetic friend. No child can
give his best attention when there
is present a dread of what might
happen il he makes a mistake. Be
