A. J. Mcconnell, of Cordova, has coined a new word and is spreading it's philosophy around that town. "A pessimist," he says, lis a man who says it can't be done; an optimist is one who says it can be done, but a .peptimist' is one who does it."
 William Hen4y, former Mccarthy resident, was recently arrested at Cor dova, on the charge of petty larceny, the specific offence being for stealing a box of goods from the Cordova Transfer Company warehouse.

THE TRUE IRISH NATURE

The average Americans idea concerning the typical Irshman probably run largely to red hair, stocky built witty tongue and ready fists Perhaps is because the average American rather admres all that sort of thing and perhaps it is-but after al who know just what is the true origin of any popular notion?
 Nevertheless, all Irishmen aren't natural born police men prize fighters There is another side of the true Irish nature which though not widely known is just as beloved among those admirers of the Irish who are thoroughly of it. is the whimsical the dreamy the artistic temperament which often outstanding characteristic of the and daughters of old Erin

LOCAL ATTORNEY GENERAL

Speaking of Alaska's judicary, Mayor Ray said that some think AL aska is ready for Territorial Supreme Court, and some think that lone central Federal Court could han de all the Federal business with Territorial Courts on local affairs. He declared it his opinion that if the Department of Justice would place an assistant attorney general at Jun eau it would so oentralize Federal activities as to be a great benefit to the laity as we'll as the judiciary.
 He said that Alaska's outpouring of wealth had helped largely in the building of Seattle, Portland and San Francisco and that Alaska should get something in return in the shape of an open chance for development with the lid off, the quashing of the coal land leasing system, self regulation of production, or in other words some freedom of movement without being cons tantly hampered by restrictions, frequently unwise and harmful. h. stead of Government officials who are engaged in handling of Alaskan affairs doing their stuff from Washington, they ought to be resi- dents of the Territory administering
 their duties at first hand. We are
 pretty well satisfied with our let,
 in having picked Alaska as oltr home" he said, but we would not be good Americans if we did not con
 tinue to insist upon our rights as
 citizens Of the United States

Court Finds No
 Excuse for Modern Noisy Jazz

PARIS, Jan. 1S--The Jazz Age recently got called to order by the court.
 Instrumental noise and boister- ous frivolity were held to be a necessary part of modern life by lower courts in a test case to oust "The Bull on the Roof" one of the well-known downtown cabarets. The Court of Appeals. less sympathetic with after-war manners, gave the place fifteen days to vacate and condemned 1t to pay damages for disturbing neighbors.
 Even the most respectable places" said the lower court in justifying the jazz practices, ''have been compelled by chang ing modes of life to satisfy the demands of their customers from the musical and choregraphic point of view"
 This decision, however, has been reversed and many suits are threatened to oust noisy night life places.

Patriots Home Towns
 In Control, French Reds

PARIS, Jan. 1S-Red Revo,u. tion and the depest patriotism manage to keep house together in two towns that are landmarks of French history.
 Communism reigns supreme in Rivesaltes, the home of Marshal Joffre, known to all the world and his soldiers as Papa" Jof- fire. Communism, likewise, abso- lutely controls the towns of Saint Cry-l'Ecole, the West Point of France
 "Ah, don't speak of him." says the reds of Rivesaltes when Joffre is mentioned. He has turned out badly and has become a Marshal of France"
 At Saint-Cry, Mayor. City Council and other officers, eff fervesce almost sssdonstantly at breathing the same air as the group of young patriots being trained for officers, each of whom, according to Napoleon, "carries in his knapsack the baton of a Marshal of France"
 All they can do, however, is to fume and to change the names of streets and squares from those of national heroes to those of Moscow's friends. The principal square now is "Place Sacco-Van- Zetti.'

American Graduates
 Must Display Label

BERLIN, Jan. 1S-CoHege grad uates WHO earned their Ph. D. at an American university must, il they wish to use their title in Prussia. either call themselves "Dr. phil. in U. s. A." or obtain a special permission from the Prus- sian ministry of education recog- nizing the foreign title. This was recently decided by the Berlin courts.
 There is law on the statute books which prescribes that all Prussian citizens who obtained an academic degree outside of Prus- sia may attach the degree to their names only if the ministry of edu- cation issues a special permit to do so.
 A graduate of an American uni versity had failed to obtain the permission and was therefore haled into court Fortunately, however, he could prove that he had always signed himself as "Dr. phil, in U. s. A." The court decided that. so long as the for eign origin was clearly indicated, there was no legal objection 70 using the title.

P|LLAGE DENIED
IN NICARAGUA

Charges published in London
papers that Ameri n marines in
Nicaragua were guilty of pillage
and other acts of unnecessary vic.
lence were vigorously denied today
by Secretaries kellogg of the State
Department and Wilbur of the
Navy. Maj. Gen. John A. LeJeune
added his unqualified denunciation
of the English charges, said to have
originated in semi-official, but I'M
named. quarters.
There is not word Of truth in
such reports" said Kellogg. 1.-The
marines are acting under rigid dis
cipline, with explicit orders not to
disturb the civil occupations of the
people"
mo such report ever has come
from Nicaragua" said Wilbur. 1T
Is characteristic of such rumors that
they usually come from the re-
hottest sources"
General LeJeune, who returned
from personal inspection trip to
Nicaragua three months ago. said
he was more than satisfied with the
discipline of the forces there.
