JUNIOR COLLEGES.


 The suggestion of Commissioner of Educa ton Lester D. Henderson that Alaska shoult establish junior colleges in connection with tn high schools in seme of the more popuous town of the Territory is worthy of very serious con sideration The junior college is no experiment It is playing it's important place in the educa tional system of the Nation in many sections o the country. It provides the first two years Of college work and keeps students at home two years longer.
 Mr Henderson in a speech to the Parent Teacher Association summarized the advantages of the junior college system very clearly and sanely:
 1.-Economy in operation That is,
 higher education can be provided at
 lower per capita cost in junior colleges
 than by any other means that has been
 devised.
 2.-Economy to the individual stu
 dent in that he can live at home and
 eliminate the cost of travel and other
 expenses necessary in attending far-away
 schools
 3.-The large incease in the num-
 Der of students who thus find it possible
 to avail themselves of the advantages
 of continuing their studies
 4.-Greater individual attention giv-
 en students by instructors, and freer
 dom from the distractions inyoved in
 an abrupt change from comparatively
 small high school to conditions that
 prevail in the large colleges and uni
 versailles.
 By pursuing courses offered in
 the junior colleges, the student is better
 enabled 10 determine if it is worth while
 to continue his study further and if so,
 what particular of study he
 should follow.
 The junior college system in general opera tion would work to the advantage of the colleges and universities. It would make their freshmen and sophomore classes smaller. obyiate lot of the sitting processes that clutter up college work and give the institutions of higher education more time for real education work
 The Empire is very strongly inclined in favor of the junior college system and believes that it would particularly lend itself to the situation in Alaska and work to the advantage of every one. It would add two years to the age of the girls and boys when they leave home to take up a new life. They would count for stabization and better preparedness to meet the radical change that characterizes the first departure from home They would be better able to orient them selves in the new field
 We believe that junior colleges ought to be es- tabshed without delay in connection with the Juneau and Ketehikan high schools and per- haps, at other Alaska points.

PASTOR ELOPER
SOUGHT

PATERSON, N. j., Feb. L.
While the Baptist church. is not
likely to smile forgiveness upon
the Rev. Luther Holmes. former
assistant pastor of the First Bap-
tist Church, who eloped with Miss
Katherine de Bruyles, choir singer
and mill worker, the minister's de-
serted wife and the girls parents
are eager to forgive and forget, and
welcome the erring pair back to
their respective homes.
Paterson police, in an effort to
accomplish this, have sent photo
graphs of the minister and the girl
to the police departments Of all
cities in the country.
VIII Be Expelled
The Rev. C. r. Saunier, pastor of
the Broadway Baptist Church, which
the Rev. Mr.. Holmes joined in an
unofficial capacity after his forced
resignation from the First Baptist
Church, said the board OF deacons
would discuss the Holmes case.
=
tons to the congregation. which
holds its annual meeting February
10, and by vote of the CHURCH will
act. Their action probably will
take the form of expulsion for
conduct unbecoming a Christian"
Wife In Hiding
Mrs. Holmes, left destitute when
her husband disappeared with all
but So cents of their joint bank ac-
count, went into hiding. This led
to the belief she had returned to
Boston relatives. She was discoV.
cred yesterday, working as a nurse
for local physician.
While she would not discuss the
case, it was learned she is ready
to take her husband back and is
remaining in Paterson awaiting him.
Miss de Bruyles' father is bitter
toward the clergyman, sympathizing
with his daughter, who is but 20.
