BEAUTIFUL FUNERAL SERVICE FUR BERNIE |. HORTON, SEWARD BOY
LONG CORTEGE IN PROCESSION LAID TO REST IN MASONIC
 PLOT

The depth of respect the communi- ty held for Bernard Anton Horton, son of MT. and Mrs. Andrew Horton, who died Saturday, was signified by the large attendance at the beautiful funeral service held yesterday after noon at the Methodist church and also by the large gathering Of friends of the departed boy, men, women and children, at the grave service.
 A touching sermon and prayer were offered by the Reverend IT. P. Graham with the Jesse Lee Home girls forming the choir, singing in sweet voices. The handsome casket was entirely surrounded by beautiful floral offerings, and at one end the Stars and Stripes draped upright. To the right of the casket were grouped Bernie's Boy Scout conrad es. On the opposite side of the cas- ket other Boy Scouts stood at atten- tion. At the conclusion of the ser- vic the attendance, which had occu- pied every seat and standing room in the church, slowly passed by Bernie paying their last respects to the de- parted youth.
 The pail bearers then gently and slowly carried the casket to the hearse, and, followed by the immedi@I ate family and the pail bearers in two cars, the procession of at least 25 cars wended their way to the Seward cemetery where, with hats doffed in a down--pour of rain all gathered around the grave in the MasOn1c plot While Reverend Graham preached the grave service,
 Bernie was born in the city of Cristobal, Panama Zone, March q, 1911. He died near Seward June IS. 1927 at the age of 16 years, three months and II days old. Besides his mother and father, Bernard leaves one brother. Henry, four sis ters Mazda, Catherine, Annie and Frances, besides other relatives and many friends to mourn his untimely 
 Pail bearers: Gus Manthey, Andy Novak, Harold Painter, Irvo Dyer, Leonard Hopkins, Robert Willis.

CANNERYMEN WILL COOPERATE

Exhibiting spirit contrary to that of the prejudiced and ofexpressed opinion that the canney interests of Alaska not interested in it's internal affairs shown Saturday when group of high officials of big cannereS to the Westward asked Secretary Hannon of the Cham Der of Commerce in what could they cooperate in securing the construction of ten miles of road from uiamna Bay to Iamna Village, at the time express ing desire to be identified with any movement looking to the securing of this needed improvement Among these officials w. Tmson president of the Alaska Packers Dave w. Branch, general manager Libby, McNel & Lib by H. B. Fele general manager of the Nakat Bay Pack ing company, and C. P. Hale president of the Alaska Salmon company and the Bristol Bay Canning company
 In the opinion of the spokesman of the group the I road is vital necessity in that it will enable all those having business in Bristol Bay the country
 guous thereto to have and egress during summer and winter that regularly established line of trans portaton is in operation to lamna Bay instead of being compelled to take the circuous route by water through Unimak Pass only in when the bay is free from ce Without this direct transportation by water to 1 anna Bay the cannery officials would have been com peed to have taken the long water route used air plane which contemplated until they discovered that the little motorshp Dscoverer offered comfort and speed to Iiamna Bay They used this route to travel to Bristol Bay this week
 The most significant feature of the action of the can nerynen in approaching Secretary Hannon lies in the fact that for time reports have from the Brs tol Bay region based purest speculation and without supporting evidence to the effect that the cannery off cials were opposed to the road project
 ''No one would welcome the roadway more than the cannerymen" the way the spokesman Of the party put it, and ii there IS anything do to cooperate with Seward and the people of amna to the early building of the road only too glad to contribute efforts"
 It oftentmes occurs that lack of acquaintance and tendency behalf of many to hold aoof creates unust fled preudices between classes In all likelihood had the preudices built up by designing politicians been set aside and the cannerymen approached in spirit of coopera ton many of the fanced differences between the people of the Territory and the canney interests would have dis solved under the influence of understanding and mutual good will.
 The present is splendid moment to grasp the hand of friendship extended and Seward will be the first to give assurances the canneymen that it is above the petty bickerings of politicians.

children; Would that not be like
those men did in independence Hall
then?" The children named the
things those men did-elect officers,
make rules to guide their future ac-
tion, (adopt a constitution), name
their club. They paused to think Of
the name of that club, and half of
the pupils were able to repeat the
Preamble to the Constitution, in
which they found the words: "Do
ordain and establish this Constitu-
ton for the United States Of Ameri-
ca"
Then the children organized their
own club-chose a name, adopted a
set of rules, elected their president
by first talking of the qualities Of
leadership and choosing one for his
honesty, dependability, loyalty, self
respect. They had lived page from
their history book, but had scarce
ly realized that they were doing So.

COUNTRY PEOPLE WANT TO
KNOW FACTS ABOUT PLANS

General interest is being shown in
the question of a School Building
Program which is now before the
Legislature. Members of many of
our Parent-Teacher Associations
throughout the country are taking
advantage of their opportunity to
hear the matter explained to them
by speakers who understand the
school situation. During the past
week, Mrs. Robert E. Lewis, State
P. T. A. President, has talked before
the association at Hollandsville,
near Harrington, on February Sth;
at Cedar Grove, District No. g.,
near FELTON,, on the 9th; and at VIII
ey's, near Dover, on Friday, the IL.
Mrs. Lewis is scheduled to speak
at Postles, near Frederick, on Feb
ruary 18th; Mrs. John B. Cleaver, of
Middletown will speak on the same
evening at Sandtown; Mrs. Cleaver
will address members Of Clayton p.
T. A., on Monday, February 21st;
Mrs. Lewis will be at Potash, near
FELTON,, on the 22nd.
Other regular monthly meetings
will be held in the various school
buildings tonight, at Woodside, near
Magnolia; at Chestnut Grove, near
Dover; at Church Hill, near Mil
ford, and at Mastens Corner, near
FELTON,, and on Wednesday, Febru-
ary 23rd, everyone is welcome to the
meeting of Bowers P. T. A. On the
+ oath, Caesar Rodney P. T. A. will
meet, and on Monday, February 2S,
the regular meeting of Harrington
School Community Association will
be held, the members having heard
about the School Building Program
j at their January meeting.
Teachers and local Parent-Teach-
er Association officers of Kent
County will want to bear in mind
the date of the second demonstra-
ton meeting, arranged by the State
P, T. A. this February. On Saturday
February 18th, at 10 a. M, the meet
ing will convene in the Dover High
School, with Mrs. Robert E. Lewis
presiding. The topic, "How History
is Taught in the Best Schools of the
Land" will be illustrated for the
benefit of parents and teachers by
a demonstration lesson, under the
guidance of R. w. Hatch of the Hor-
ace Mann School, New York City.
The ultimate aim of all history
teaching in the schools, according tC
Mr.. Hatch, is the making Of a goot
citizen. We cannot learn what we dc
not practice, therefore he sets out
to create opportunity for practice o.
the qualities that make up goot
citizenship. Information or fac
content is not enough" Mr.. Hatcl
declares. 'Inspiration or emotiona
concepts about our country do no
carry over alone. We must some
how get the pupils in the schools tt
live their civics in concrete situa
tions every day, in every subject, il
school and out. The skillful teache'
'uncovers' these situations.
At a similar demonstration givel
by Mr.. Hatch in Georgetown, OF
Saturday, February 5th, he question
ed the pupils with whom he wa
working, as to their idea of the Con
stitutional Convention in Philadel
phia, in 1887. "What if we formed

has found that there are many shades OF

them all at once in one frock. White,
gray and black, for instance, might be
used in the frock above for waist, second
