GEORGE |. PARKS TAKES
 OATH OF OFFNt

 No pictures or records were filing of the oath of office.
 Governor Parks pledged his best efforts to the Territory. He said "The big need is for Alaskans to think and plan on constructive ideas Alaska has the resources and there must be some reason why the handicaps in development have not been surmounted. shall try to discover what is wrong not like many other pioneer sec tions where on can move in and live off the country as it is devel- oped. but it needs capital to de velope the resources, make pay rolls and establish markets for local products. Therefore we mnst encourage capital with low taxes and fair or more than fair dealings to come here.'
 Parks praised Bones admins tration and said that his greatest hope was that he might continue to work for the Territory with the same unselfish devotion and the high spirit of public service of his predecessor.
 Martin George, for twenty years chief draftsman in the Surveyor office was appointed cad astral engineer by the Interior de :, partment and as such succeeds | Governor Parks.
 J. 4. Ramsay will succeed Parks iI the field division, as inspector in charge of the General Land | Office with headquarters at n An ,horage.

School Fairgrounds
Educational Necessity

School Fairgrounds, educational lead
ers realize, are as essential as school
buildings. "We talk no more in terms
of square feet per child, but in acres
per school," states Dr. James E. Rog-
ers, director, Community Recreation
Training School, Playground and Rec
reatiOn Association Of America, in
School Life, a publication of the In
terror department, bureau of education.
Joliet, H., town of $4,000, has one
school with 20 acres, and the others
average more than five acres each.
Elyria, Ohio, with $4,000 people, has
bought an athletic field of 18 acres
for it's high school. Tacoma, San
Diego, Peoria, and many others have
great stadiums In Gary, Ind, every
high school has playground block
square, a gymnasium, and an audi
tOrium. These mean clearer brains,
more active bodies, and make for bet
ter study and recitations. On play
grounds and athletic fields are learned
some Of the greatest lessons of life.
For this reason, Doctor Rogers urges,
schools should maintain their physical
education for II months rather than
for 9.

Pays to Take Time
on Plan for Garden

The laying out of the vegetable
garden on paper is desirable for the
purpose of economy of time and space,
in the first place, and in order to In
sure the proper placing of the veg
etables in regard to sun and shade and
convenience in cultivating.
The taller-grOwing vegetables, such
as corn and pole beans, are usually
placed toward the western portion of
the garden, because they will cast
shade then only during the hottest
portion of the day when little shade
may be helpful. The earliest veg
etables usually are placed nearest to
the back door for convenience in
gathering in spring when the earth is
likely to be muddy and where there
will be no necessity for walking over
the surface of the newly spaded and
titled soil.
The most practical means of lay
ing out vegetable garden is to draw
a plan on a scale of half an inch to a
foot on tough wrapping paper which
is not easily torn and which will not
break with folding. On this scale a
50-foot garden patch would occupy a
25-inch square. When vegetables are
charted in place, after careful study
and thought, there will be room on the
paper to make notes as to experiments
and results in the garden and as to
various insect pests. The chart will
become record of the time necessary
to mature the earliest crops from SOW
ing and will furnish an excellent guide
in seasons to come. By reference to
the chart and notes, the same mis-
takes need not be made again.
If he has two rows of the same veg
etable and uses a different succession
crop in each row, the gardener may
note which was the most successful
combination.
In small gardens where intensive
fertilizing and cultivation are simple,
the rows need not be as far apart as
in larger gardens. Eighteen inches Is
ample for most of the vegetables.

there is no international boundary

the American Association for the Ad-

Divide. There's nothing below 1900
feet in the park and the summit of
Longs peak towers up 1926 feet into
the sky. There are actually 43 peaks
above 10000 feet And among these
granite peaks, whitened here and
there with everlasting snow, are
scores Of wild, sequestered valleys,
with lakes and streams, birds and wild
animal life, forests and flowers.
Roads? There aren't any to speak
of. The trails the thing in Rocky
Mountain. That's why-even with
225,000 visitors-you can get off by
yourself And that's why Rocky

There is no north and south road
through the park; the Front range
and the Continental Divide made it
impossible. And there's only one
road across the park from east to
