WRANGELL PARENTS
 PLEASE TAKE NOTICE

Medical examinations were give
 ae Wrangell school children lass spring. and Of the I46 examined. D were found to be in need of medica or dental attention.
 school will begin again in a fe8 weeks and it Is suggested that thes children receive the proper medicsg or dental attention now, so that they will moi be forced 10 lose time from school. Few of these children afa now seriously il, but many have cons ditions present which. if not corrected now, may lead to serious trouble in the future Many of them have conditions which keep them below normal in resistance to disease and ability to do school work.
 Is it fair to permit a child To Le handicapped by more OF less miuor ailments which could be remedied by proper steps? Our children need al the help we can give them to keep their bodies healthy and their mines alert. A child with a sick body can not have so active a brain as h9 should have. and his ability to learn is cut down more than most of us realize. The pain from bad tooth the stuffed nose from adenoids. or any uncomfortable condition detracts the chfld's attention from his work.
 If your child would be helped by medical or dental attention, let the work be done before school begins.

LISBON-After being 20 hours overdue, Major Leon Idzekowski and Major Casimir Kubala, Polish flierss were picked up by the German steam ship Samos off the coast of Portugal.

Both flier were badly shaken up and bruised hy the shock of landing in a none tco calm sea.
 Their plane had been in the air 8 hours and had made great cire @ out over the Atlantic toward tfe Azores. during which time they had been sighted by two steamships. It was reported from these two shiIs that the indications were the fliers had given up their attempt to span the Atlantic and were heading back to Europe It was the second time in a week now that trouble with the fuel supply had forced ocean fliers to land at sea- But like Captain Frank Courtney, whose plane likewise failed him. these Polish aviators cheated the sea when they seemed to be cel- tain victims, and little hope was left.
