Enlistment of a Student Loan Club

ment is sponsored by the Committee
on Applied Education, Mrs. Harry
Crib Of Anchorage, past-presIdent

designed to aid outstanding talent

during her presidency and was fay-
ored generally. but no definite ac-
ton was taken. # the clubs of the
Alaska Federation approve of the
establishment of the Student Loan
Fund, an equal initial contribution
will be asked from each club.
The General Federation News had
the following information about
loan funds in one of its early fall
issues of last year:

REINDEER HERDS AT
WAINWRIGHT ARE LOST
IN A SEVERE STORM

NOME-A letter from Vain
wright relates the loss of two rein
deer herds in a severe storm. AL
though the entire village turned out
to search no trace of the reindeer
was found. The search was eontin-
ued for weeks and up until yester-
day nothing further has been heard.
The supposition is that the animals
have been frozen to death and their
bodies covered with snow.
There is an abundance of polar
bear reported at Point Barrow and
at Wainwright. Five bears were
killed in one day at the latter place
and many others are seen daily pass
ing on icebergs.
Advices from Point Barrow to the
Nome Nugget indicate prosperous
winter and no illness.

STUDENT LOAN FUNDS
REACH HALF MILLION

REACH HALF MILLION
More than half a million dollars
has been raised by club women for
scholarship loan work in various
states The exact figures are not
available as many states have not re-
ported this years addition to the
loan fund, but in almost every state
the federation is raising, lending,
collecting money for scholarship
work. Most states have two kinds
of scholarships, the endowed and the
perpetual. and the loan fund, to be
repaid at the ability of the lender.
Colorados loan fund totals ST.
400; Kansas, $51.705, while amount
of loans paid back since the begin
ming of the fund in 1908 is $62,533.-
So; Iowa has a fund of $4,000 with
$40 loans paid up and with but two
losses in payments in Is years;
Georgia with a fund of $28,621 has
311 beneficiaries; Missouri, honor
ing its president, Mrs. Ess, has a
loan fund of $15.S9S.26. Names
fund is unique, since its. state treas
urer votes out the money. West Vir-
.ginia's fund is $12,581.90, and Ar
kansas, counting both its Mae Be
wins and its Mae Moore endowed
funds, and its student loan fund
raised largely by efforts of Mrs. A.
Marinoni, more than $4,000 with
never loss in loans which are made
without interest. Because the leg
islature has recently appropriated
$4,000 loan fund, the clubwomen,
while retaining their fund, are max
ing no further effort along this line.
North Carolina with it's $1,000 fund
has "a beneficiaries. Minnesota has
a $4,000 loan fund.

THE PIONEER AERONAUTs
OF ALASKA
The air age. has arrived in Alaska

That's the word Governor Parks
brought to Seattle upon his recent
arrival
The airplane IS revolutionizing
Alaska, the Governor put 1t. The
| Territory has established As landing
fields. he recounted. using highway
funds on the theory that airways
are as important as routes for earth
pound travel.
Commercial companies are operat-
Ing out of Fairbanks. Anchorage and
Nome. Fish canneries are Install
ling their own services. Individual
planes are increasing SO rapidly the
Governor wouldn't guess at their
number.
And the Governor expressed no re
grets that the historic dog sled is
mushing along its last trail, toward
the past of "soapy Smith," the
aRagtime Kid" aud the lady known
as Lou.
IT'S like this" he explained.
here were two boys that have
dredging outfit at Bear Greek, on
the Kuskokwim. It would have
taken them three weeks by dog sled
to get to Nenana Now It takes
them few hours. Their claim is
only nine days from Seattle.
1T means they can leave the
States a month later. practically, in
the spring and work a month later
IN the fall.
big game hunters can be taken
IN few hours to the Rainy River
country. The canneries are trying
them, too, but they have to have
amphibian planes. The pontoons
are awkward"
The Governors statement on
aviation no doubt led the Associated
Press to ask Alaskan editors to sup
ply their office with Alaska aviation
material for a feature story which
will be published soon.
With stories such as the recent
life and death experiences of Bessie
Howe. Ninilchic school marin"
the progress of Alaska aviation will
thrill the world.
We, here in Alaska. are already
"case-hardened' to the exploits of
our planes but to those Outside they
are feats of daring to marvel at.
When the Governor started to
talk about Alaska aviation he
started something from which the
Territory will receive much good.
A smaller percentage of deaths is
credited to world aviation in COM
parison to any other mode of trans
portation. Statistics bear this state
ment out For at least five years
commercial planes have been operat-
ing in Alaska and not. one death or
serious accident has occurred. A
correspondent was killed in Fair
banks when he walked into a Whirl-
ing propeller but this death could
not be directly charged to flying &C
eidents.
Secretary of the Interior Hubert
Work called attention in his annual
report of the wonderful develop
ment of aviation in Alaska.
And next year chances are favor
able that the Army will have
squadron of planes in Alaska.
Progress and development comes
in various forms.
Yet there are some who still be-
lieve Alaska is not forging ahead

du Point to Talk

New York, Oct. 2s.-tP)-A "me-
chanical larynx' which enables
United States Senator 7. Coleman
du Pont TO speak, notwithstanding
an operation in which his vocal
cords were removed, was described
today by the New York World.
DR.. John f. MacKenty, senior sur
geon Of the Manhattan eye, ear and
throat hospital. who performed the
operation, involving removal Of the
vocal cords, larynx and part of the
tongue and windpipe, is renowned
for his technique in throat cancer
operation.
He declined to comment upon his
clients case, although the senator's
office announced the ailmcnt as
"throat ulcer"
The mechanical larynx" was de-
scribed as perfected type Of q de-
vice presented to medical science
few years ago by DR.. Harvey
Fletcher f. Lane of the laboratories
of the Western Electric company.
and the American Telephone and
Telegram company, whose researches
were undertaken at the instigation
Of DR.. Mackenty, who had studied
the problem for 20 years.
Device Not CONSPICUOUS
The device, which was said to save
the senator from tho penalty of
dumbness that once resulted from
such an operation as his, is simple,
resembling and but little more con-
spicuous than any underslung pipe,
from the bowl Of which tube ex-
tends to an artificial throat opening.
The pipe bowl contains the artificial
larynx. Air from the lungs passes
