OUTLOOK FRIGHTENING

The fact that South Alaska has been growing steadily better for some time in spite of the fact that millions of dollars of government money has been and is being spent in other portions of the Territory speaks volumes for her business re- sources and their development. It is hoped that the government money being spent in other sections will put them on the map and keep them there and that they will blossom as the rose and become as prosperous as is our own section.
 The year 1924, while not all that was expected of it, is so far high ly prosperous one for this portion ot the country, and the indications are that it will finish in a greater blaze of glory than has been appar-  ent in the portion already gone.
 The fishing industry is in splen- did condition and if given chance, will take care of itself. IL has late ly been legislated on and that fact is sufficient to indicate that II is a live question at Washington, even it the legislation so far enacted is not just what is wanted.
 South Alaska is essentially a min- ing district and it is to that indus try we must look for community stability and advancement. Ana the mining industry is showing sub- stantial advancement all oyer the district. More prospects are being developed at present than tor sever al years and much work is being done on properties that have lain lQle LOT d iOuS time. AHu ieouiIS are highly encouraging, so much so that operations in many places are being speeedd up to the extent that returns will be coming back in the near future.
 Locally the outlook is brighter than it has been since the kaiser mussed things up generally and in addition to what we already have there is a glimmer in the East that foretells better times in the offing.
 Times are good in this portion of Alaska and they are getting better. -Stroller's Weekly.

tions of the country the matter of stabilizlng it's patriotic program. A move to establish the American Legion chair of history and patriotism re- suited and eliminated in the gift of Mrs. Mccormick.
 Of the amount donated by Mrs. Me Cormick half was used in the erection of building to house the department The remaining $50,000 forms an en- dowment fund which assures the per manence of the chair.
 The expressed purpose of the de- partment Is to teach and foster the ideas and ideals of the founders of the country and to psrpetuate in the lives of posterity the heroic service and sacrifice of the American Legion.
 Aside from classroom lectures on the essentials of patriotism, the course of study includes a laboratory course in the investigation of social, indus trial and economic conditions of un- rest; of the cause of the rise and fall of nations and the means whereby the dry rot which eats at the heart of government may be comhatted
 An example of the practical field work being accomplished by the stu dents of the department is seen in recent threatened disturbance in mill towns along the coast. Amer an Le- zion students went into the troubled district, gained the confidence of the workers. and succeeded in averting any disturbance.
 Such field work will be extended in the future to include investigation and the making of reports on industrial conditions. It has been found that where the students are well posted on conditions, the outbreak may be avert ed in many instances.

sITKA TEACHER COMPLIES
 AN ALASKAN TEXT BOOK
(Sitka Tribune)

Miss Zoe Porter, who has been primary instructor for two terms, and made school joy to her little pupils, is compiling a text book for primary children in Alaska, which can be used by both white and Indi- an children, and will spend next term in research work. In speak ing of the project, Miss Porter, who has specialized in primary methods at Carolina and Columbia Universi- ties, says:
 "The present accepted method of teaching primary children, such as the learning of Mother Goose rhymes. does not appeal to Indian children, who have never heard them before and do not understand, so I propose to compile book tell ing of the things of their daily life which they will understand and en- joy" This will be the first Alaska primary text book ever written and Miss Porter is to be much admired for her enterprise. She has been re- Quested by the Education authori- ties to follow this up with other text books later.
