BATTER UP!

Now is the time that national issu,s, presiden-
tial prophecies and the like are temporarily forgot
ten and their place in the public interest is taken by
something which has always held envjabe place in
public regard-the Great Game IF Baseball
The season has begun! The games are on! Now
we know that Spring is here and Summer is coming,
and Sport is King.
What's little thing like the political situation,
compared to the thrill of the first homer
It's "batter up and "kill tie unp.e' all over the
land, and there is no hopaf,, sgE for the fu-
ture of America.
A natien that plays is young. A nation that will
continue to play will always be young and energetic
and live.
It is red blood that runs through our national ar
teres so long as the heart of the nation can beat
faster IN response to the exploits of the Home Run
Kings.
When thousands are roofing in the bleachers,
and thousands are listening over the radio at home
for reports Of the game, and other thousands are
welding the bat in ball fields and vacant lots we
need not fear that the enthusiasm and spirit of our
citizens will vanish.
It is when people do not know how to play that
they also forget how to think and how to live

CHAUNCEY M. DEPEW

Chauncey M. Depew has passed away, and we
are all little sadder because Of his passing For so
long time was he in the forefront of national af
fairs for SO long period was the spotlight of public
interest flashed upon him, that America as whole
will find it difficult to adjust itself to life without
his presence,
A great intelligence and a great w.t. he illumin-
ated the life about him, and made the world bet
ter place to live in because he lived in it.
He lived during the administration of most of
our presidents He lived during the most marvellous
age known to man, Of scientific developments, new
discoveries the conquest of the air and the sea- And
he knew Abraham Lincoln that alone would have
endeared him to us, had we known nothing else
about him.
In Of his last interviews, he expressed an un-
bounded love Of life. He was always notable for his
wisdom in living, and his great care of his menta
and physical faculties permitted him long rich life
When re died he was almost ninetyfour; yet he die
not die as aged, broken man, but as vital. i'm
porant personality still in the midst of active work
and compelling interests
The onslaughts of old age never phased this
brave SOUL who looked forward with the optimism of
Robert Browning:
Grow old along with me,
The best is yet to be,
The last of life, for which the first was made

The garnet, the stone assigned to the month of January. has long been credited with the power to confer upon It's wearer strength, grace and victory. Because of it's stimulating red color. likened in the past to a glowing coal, it has been called the gem of inspiration, and is supposed to give great im- petus to the creative instinct. Hence, 1t is particularly favorable to those engaged in original scien- tific research or in any work re- quiring creative ability. as January people frequently are. It Is also conducive to cheerfulness, exhilar- ating the spirit and driving away depression and gloom.
 During the Middle Ages, the garnet was used as a remedy for infiammatory diseases. and was worn to insure constancy, fidelity and happiness. It was also fore most among the stones supposed to warn their wearers of approaching danger by changing color. so that during the Crusades nearly every knight wore a garnet given him by his lady as a protective danger sig

Art Critics Prove
 Too Appreciative

PITTSBURGH, Pa. Dec. 31.- Modernistic art seems to puzzle even the critics.
 For three weeks 'The Fossil Hunters" an example of modern art by Edwin Dickinson of Prov ineetown, Mass, hung in a choice position at. the international ex- hibition of art here while thou sands wondered what the maze of black and blue print, as it ap- peared to the untutored eye, was intended to be.
 Officials connected with the exhibition, as we'll as the critics, apparently understood the pie ture perfectly, so no one asked questions.
 But imagine the embarrass- ment of the officials and critics when Dickinson wired a demand that his picture be hung right side-up instead of sideways.

DEAN PATTY
 WRITING FOR
 PROSPECTORS
Head of School of Mines Would Encourage Pros
 pecting Tn Alaska

Ernest N. Patty, Dean of the Agricultural College and School of Mines and head of the School of Mines, has prepared a series of ar ticles on prospecting. tending to awaken greater interest and activ- ity in that vocation. The articles, six in number. are written under the heading, "Tales from the Hills" and they are being releas- ed by the College. The first of the series will appear in The Elm pire Wednesday. January ?, and they will be published in this paper thereafter as released.
 Dean Patty believes that mining is destined to be far more im- portant factor in Alaska than it has been in the past. but recog- nizes the need of more prospec- tors. He also emphasizes the ad- vantages of the School of Mines at Fairbanks as a training place for prospeetors-a place W Il r e may gain knowledge that will count for thorough and intelligent prospecting.

NEW CONTRACT
 FOR INSANE 0F
 ALASKASOUCHT
C ment Apparently Plans No Change in
 Present System

That there will be no immedi- aie abandonment of the Federal Govern menfs policy of caring for Alaskan nisane by the contract system m vogue for. many years, was indicated by a call for bids for such a contract which was received at the Governors office here today. IL announced that tenders for a contract 10 care for the insane of the Territory for a period of five years beginning January 1, 1930. would be received by the Interior Department up to January 16 next.
 The present contract with the Morningside Sanitarlum expires in 1930. The average cost paid un- der it per person is SG24 The Department announced that bids would be received from any re- sponsible institution from west of the Rocky Mountains.
 The contract system has been attacked over a long period of years as being inhuman and unde- sirable from every standpoint of humanity. For many years, various Governors of Alaska have reeom- mended 10 the Interior Department that il be discontinued. Gov George Parks in his most recent annual report to the Department renewed this recommendation Sey- eral Alaska legislatures have adopted resolutions and memorials urging the advisability of changing the system
 Two definite plans have been suggested in the past for improve ment. One was for the construc- ton of buildings and establish ment of an institution to be gov ernmentally operated at some suit able location iii the Territory. The other suggested that some Pacific Coast State might be induced to care for Alaska insane thus plae- ing them under direct supervision of State officials.

PETE FARRELL
 PASSES AWAY

Pete Farrell, better known as Montana Pete" one of the real oldtlmers of Alaska, passed away at St. Ann's Hospital last night al the age of S1 years. Of the S1 years that made up his life, over GO were crowded with the most hectic of adventures.
 Farrell was given the name cf Montana Pete" when he was a young man driving r.age coaches during .he early days of the set ting of Montana state. After sey- efal years of driving the eight horse coaches during which time Farrell had many experiences that would go well in a novel. he went to California where he took part in the glamorous gold rushes that filled he years from "49' until the latter part of the century.
 From California Farrell came to Alaska and during the 40 years he spent in the Territory. he took part in practically all of the larger gold rushes, always in seek of ad- venture. As a gambler during the days when dust was the stake to be played for he enjoyed the repu- tation of a winner of large sums. IL is sad that in one game of solo he won s25,00O.
 After the big rushes were a thing of the past, Farrell caIhe to the coast and spent the past years of his life in the towns of Southeast ern Alaska. Of late years his health has been failing and prior to his death he was confined in the local hospital, where the end came, due to old age and a failing heart.
 The only surviving relative is a brother, who lives in Vacayile, California. Farrell had never mar rded, for as his friends put it, he was always on the go, looking for excitement and he was too busily occupied with pursuits of adven- ture to settle down."
 The body is at Juneau Young Mortuary awaiting the completion of funeral arrangements.
