WORK Il|ll / ON. PARK ! R
Students Spend Afternoon
Clearing Off Field for
Playground.

On Tuesday afternoon "a half holt
day was given to the students of the
Junior and Senior High Schools to
enable them to help on the new play
ground situated on Ninth Street
School was dismissed at II as
usual and at l o'clock all the stud
ents returned to their respective
they elected their captains to have
charge of the work. The following
were elected:
Boys-Jr. |, Etore Scatglini; Jr.
II. Walter Foote; Jr. III. Ernest
Holmquist; Sr. l, John Hahn; Sr. H.,
Harold Camper; Se. III, John Janik-
sela.
Girls-Jr. l. Betty Olson; Jr, II,
Myrtle Price; Jr. III, Dorothy Klein
schmidt; Sr |. Virginia Metzger; ST..
II, Virginia Shattuck; Sr. III, Lavina
Carter.
After the elections the boys and
girls were lined up by their "bosses"
and marched down in military forma-
ton. Arriving at the grounds, they
were all put~to work, some loaded
and unloaded the wagons which
hauled the rocks others collected the
rocks in piles so as to have them
ready when the wagon called for
them. The girls were the best in
THIS kind of work The majority of
the boys were given picks and shov-
els and were put to work digging UP
big rocks and leveling off the
ground
The old saying MANY hands make
light work" was proved true. such a
lot of work was accomplished in the
short time that the students worked.
Although they worked hard. one
thing that preyed upon their minds
was lunch. When their patience was
about up. it appeared, and then came
a grand free-for-all to see who could
get to the lunch first. Ham sand
wiches and coffee was the menu.
They had been furnished by Mr.
Casey and were served by the girls.
Needless to say. they disappeared
very quickly After lunch they again
went to work and dirt and rocks
flew around in all directions faster
than ever This energetic attack was
kept up until that old welcome sound
was heard, knock off" Then an
other scramble began for hats and
coats which had been discarded in
the heat of hard work
The work done by the students was
in cooperation with the Fire De-
partment, which started the idea of
a playground within the city limits,
by buying the lot for ball ground
and as playground and park for
the younger generation OF Juneau,
many of whom on Tuesday gathered
blisters, callouses, aches and appe-
tiles
The park will probably be ready
for the next intersclfool meet that
will come again in Juneau, sometime
in April.

IF BACK HURTS
FLUSH KIDNEYS
Eat less meat, also take glass CT
Salts before breakfast
occasionally.

Too mucn meat may form uric
acid, which excites the kidneys;
they become overworked; get slug
gish, ache and feel like Jumps of
lead. The urine becomes cloudy;
the bladder is irrtated, and you
may be Obliged to seek relief two or
three times during the night. When
the kidneys clog you must help them
flush off the body's urinous waste or
you'll be a real sick person shortly.
At first you feel a dull misery in the
kidney region; you suffer from back
ache, sick headache, dizziness. stem
ach gets sour. tongue coated and you
feel rheumatic twinges when the
weather is bad.
Drink lots of water; also get from
any pharmacist four ounces of Jad
Salts; take a tablespoonful in a glass
cf water before breakfast for a few
days and your kidneys may then act
fine. This famous salts is made from
the acid of grapes and lemon juice,
combined with lithia, and has been
used for generations to clean clogged
kidneys and stimulate them to nor
NAL activity. also to help neutralize
the acids in urine, so it no longer
is source of irritation, thus often
ending bladder weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive. cannot

TO help keep the kidneys cleau--and
active Druggists here say they sell
lots of Jad Salts to folks who believe
in correcting kidney trouble while

Palace Theater, on Sunday matinee

people of Juneau will have a chance
to see picture that has been hailed

JUNEAU SCHOOL NEWS
. r. # &A3f w s.
a Edited by the Students Of the Senior English Class.
EDITORIAL
(By Tecla Joraensen.)

Never before has the High School
student had as many opportunities to
get glimpses of the many-sidedness
of the interests Of the members of
his community.
The student of today is doing his
best in preparing to become the best
citizen of his town and to make his
career a success in whatever line he
is interested. In order to accomplish
this each and every one must take
an active part and an interest In
the outside doings of the people of
the town and put his whole heart
into that work.
The Chautauqua is an example of
an outside activity in which the high
school takes great interest and
every year they look forward to the
lectures from which many of them
get inspiration and knowledge of the
world and the opportunities that it
affords
ii you noticed the crowd that came
to hear the programs the Chautauqua
put on. you noticed that nearly every
student in the high school was there
with eyes and ears open to catch
the least little thing which concerned
them and their lives Every lecture
was instructive and inspirational,
more so to these students than to
the average adult on this account:
The boy or girl in school is delving
little into the sciences and is up
to date on the news Of the world,
and history is fresh in their minds.
They are interested in the progress
going on through the universe. and
as result they can follow carefully
all that the speaker says. and I'M
derstands
And did you see the crowd OF
laughing young people Tuesday. as
they swung along out the road to
the playground with appetites. it
seemed, all set for work and that to
be done with the good will and cheer
fulness that only the young can
show? You did, Pm sure, or at least
Won heard the healthy noise they
made Everyone knew this work was
being done Tor the Deneflt or Juneau
and to get something accomplished
toward creating a place of rccrea-
ton for the youngsters OF the town.
The High School student realizes
that to attain the position In the
world which is dearest to him. he
must have interests outside of his
one little world and himself The
fact is that many Of the faults of
the younger generation have been
exaggerated and II one talks to the
average student in sensible way. It
will be easy to find out that thci:
thoaghts are often centered on the
welfare of their fellows in this
sphere and that they are continually
broadening their interests.

WHAT THE ChAUTAUQUA
HAS LEFT WITH THE SCHOOL

The student by now has learned
how to star gaze and how to rem
edy it by Jazz" from DR.. Carpenters
lecture on "World in the Making"
That was not all the student learned,
however. for DR.. Carpenters lecture
impressed us with the value of en-
phasizing optimism and minimizing
throughout life. With the physics
student he left a broader knowledge
concerning the universe. the laws
governing it. it's behavior and its Su-
preme Ruler-God.
DR.. Smith in his lecture on THE
Farthest Coal has left with the
student the inspiration to choose
those things in his life which will
eventually lead to reaching 1.-THE
Farthest Goal" clean character
and a successful life.
DR.. Ford's lecture on "The Won
ders of Electricity" gave us new
ideas and demonstrated the posi-
bilities of this powerful element in
years to come. He also told us Of
the invention to be used in the 1928
Ford cars. The axle is to be fitted
with magnet for the purpose of
picking up stray nuts and bolts.
In short the lecturer strengthened
his hope and confidence in his school
work and in the work and play OF
the future.

treat, especially Wee jamie" and

RAPID HANDLING
OF NEWSPAPERS

Washington. March 24.-Expedi-
tious handling of newspapers is
urged on postal employees in a
statement by John H. Bartlett, new
first assistant postmaster general,
published today in the Postal Bull
letin.
Despite repeated instructions for
the prompt handling OF daily news
papers," the statement asserts,
many complaints are made of de-
lay in the receipt of this class OF
mail.
This condition is irritating to
subscribers and inexcusable from a
service standpoint. Unless received
promptly a newspaper has little or
no news value, and the postal serV-
ice reaps the criticism of delay.
"Postmasters are therefore urged
to see that all daily papers, both
outgoing and incoming, are han
died Immediately upon receipt in
their offices to the end that we
have satisfied public and an ap-
preciative press"

Especial to The Argus

Washington, d. c., March "a
The Graham bill, authorizing the
u. s. Housing corporation to make
full settlement with Rock Island.
Moline, East Moline, Davenport and
other cities having war housing
contracts, has been signed by Pres
ident Warren Harding. his secre-
tary, George b. Christian, announc-
ed today.
The Graham bill was approved by
house and senate without opposi-
ton.
Chairman Watson of the housing
corporation this morning declared
that he will sign vouchers and for
ward drafts within the next few
weeks. Settlement of the corpora
ton contract has been pending
many months and became an issue
when restraining order was signed
by the federal courts to present
sale of government houses for
taxes.
II is estimated that Rock Island
will receive between $4,000 and
$4,000 and receipt of the money
will stabilize certificates issued by
the city to pay for work through
the housing districts. Davenport
has a big bill, too, but Moline, the
corporation says, is indebted to it.
