 self even more useful. by backing the 0>'little theatre movement"
 Ypsilanti Michigan, a progressive town, has one of the oldest and smallest theatres 1n the country As an example, 1t Is unlque A club was started seven years ago, with III teen members, for a study of the drama The organization now occupies national promln- ence among supporters of the 'llttle theatre movement
 Entertainment was the object of course.
 After the first year the club purchased a small barn and remoded it into playhouse. The same building is in use at present The auditorium has seating capacity for sixty persons. It is 12 by IS feet, with small bal cony made from a haymoW. The stage has a depth of 9 feet and proscenlm arch , by 15 feet The interior was painted and decor ated with old English lanterns, giving 1t an Elizabethan appearance. The stage IS equipped with modern lighting system
 Only one-act plays are offered, usually two or three of them on each night when perform ances are held Following the "show," play CTS and audience join in a supper
 The club is self-supporting and now it IS planning large municipal playhouse. Every member is subject to call for any performance, from scene-shifting to playing a role.
 Each play is studied in detail before being presented. Costumes, announcement posters and other things needed are prepared, and even the furniture is built by club mem9'r~.
 Among the plays presented so far this year are ''The Golden Scarf,' by Kenneth Good man; "A Night of the Trojan War;" by John Drinkwater; 'Fourteen,'' by Alice Gertsen- hero and sEHer Only Son '' by Marjorie Sin clair.
 Why can't Cordova have "little theatre?' There's as much talent here as at Ypsilanti.

SYMPATHY FOR HAWAII

Hawaiians are complaining bitterly that many "highly placed" Americans do not know yet that the Paradise of the Pacific IS part of the United States. Alaska has the same complaint, and Cordova, especially, be- cause nearby we have undoubtedly some i'm mense pools of crude oil, with eleven expert mental wells producing 1900 barrels a month, and few capitalists outside are taking notice of us. Even John D. Rockerfeller Jr., sup posed to be wise recently went all the way to the Philippines seeking indications of new oil fields, and our Government even now IS sending Admiral Chester and others to Mes opotamia and elsewhere on the same kind of mission.
 "What fools these mortals be!'
 The Hawaiians complain dolefully of the general misconception of the status of the status of their Territory. Hawaii became a part of the United States in 1899 and contrib utes millions of dollars annually in federal in come taxes to the support of the Government Yet, lately, the Hawaiian banks have been re- ceiving letters from the Collector of Internal Revenue at Washington, D. C., returning checks "because the Hawaiian Islands are not in the United States.'' The letters also demanded that "the matter must be adjusted at once," and called attention to the fact that check for any obligations to the Unit ed States 4must be paid at par" Many fi-

ORIGINAL OPPORTUNITIES

Thousands of Scandinavian farmers are re- ported to be clamoring for passports to Amer ica, hoping to find opportunities for content ment They could find the best opportuni- ties, pecularily suited to them, in certain sec tions of Alaska. On the Kenai peninsula: for example from SeIdovia to Kenai, colony of industrious and hardy farmers could create a paradise of plenty. All nature would be allied with their efforts
 Prior to the seizure of the golden opportun- ity, however, every settler would have to go es far as he could toward becoming an Amer ican citizen. Alaska is for Americans, only Aliens are welcome only as guests.
 We don't have to go to Scandinavia, how ever, to get the right kind of farmers for the Northland. In the Middle and Southern Sta tes there are millions of good Americans yearn- ing for such opportunities. They are in debt, land poor and handicapped in every way, but thousands could be found with means sui ficient for the move, if conditions were right for their coming
