FAILURE N SUCCESS

Are you discouraged by failure? Then you will fail.
Most of the little failures and little successes are UNI
important skirmishes in the battle Of life. They are the
maneuvering. the testing of the opening lines, the find
ing OF the weak spots and strong spots.
In the hour of skirmish lost. or in the zest of skirmish
won, it is we'll to remember that the great battle is yet
to be fought. The man who is stricken in heart by the
little defeats and the man who is palsied in mind by the
little victories will be on a par when the real test comes.
Our little failures and little successes are about equally
willing to serve us. They will be very useful if we will
as the gift of fate and circumstance, we might as well
quit the fight.
The man who. In defeat, can put his finger on the
cause of his defcat-the where, and why, the how Of it
is already well on the road to ultimate victory.
And the man who, in victory, knows how he won, and
wherefore, will win again, and more gloriously.
Stepping to one side never gets you any nearer to the
front.

BEAR SITUATION
 |S DISCUSSED BY
 ALASKA FARM HEAD
DIR. ALBERTS ADDRESSES MEM BERS AT CHAMBER OF
 COMMERCE LUNCHEON


 A glimpse of what the United States government, thru the de- Ipartment of agriculture, is doing toward developing the farming and cattle raising possibilities in Alaska was given to an interested audience at the regular weekly business luncheon of the Seward Chamber of Commerce Tuesday by pr. w. H. Alberts, director of the U. s. experimental stations in Alas ka.
 Having been personally engaged in supervising this work for the past three years, and Investigating, himself, all conditions in the Terri tory having a bearing upon the in dustry which is first in importance to any nation, as far as his time would permit, pr. AlbertS laid his finger on Kodiak Island as the re- zion destined to be Alaska'S live stock center. And in spite of the witness of Kodiak Island" remark ed the doctor, "only a very small fraction of it's area is suitable for agricultural purposes"
 Those of the inhabitans of Ko- diak who are fostering the grazing of live stock are, in spite of hazards that must soon be removed, show more thhan substantial progress ITO my own knowledge, pr. All berts stated, "the sheep herds mum Der up to 2,000 in single herd, and the cattle nearly as greatly. Un- like other industries, Kodiak live stock raiserS are not in dire need of highways, as cattle and sheep can be driven over trails very easity, and 8 satisfactory system of trails is now established, all leading to the end of the five mile highway into Kodiak Supplies and build ing materials needed by the ranch CTS is best transported by small boats from the town of Kodiak to the heads of the many bays that serve as headquarters and home sites for ranchers"
 Treating only lightly on the brown bear menace. which is re- garded in different lights by sports men than by ranchers, he said re- ports were not erroneous in that cattle ranchers in the small Sec- tion of Kodiak Island in which the industry is being established, are experiencing serious devastations frequently, by the predatory habits of the brown bears. Both sides of the situation are fully appreciated, he said, and a plan is being worked out by the Alaska game commission and the U. s. department of agrl- culture whereby both interests are to be fully appeased.
 It is generally conceded that in the interests of agricultural ad- vancement and the raising of live stock, the bears should go, if nec- essary. However, the opinion is held by many, that to exterminate the brown bears from the farming and cattle grazing districts of Ko- diak Island, would scarcely dimin- ish to the slightest degree the abundance of these huge animals that would still be left on the is- land for the sportsmen, not to mention the bears of the Alaska peninsula which outnumber those of Kodiak.

the United States Government, so that they
may be preserved.
once the area was the home of the basket
makers, the first people Psychologists have
thus far identified on the American continent;
nomadics who, in their earliest stages, knew
neither the use Of the bow and arrow, the max
ing of pottery nor the art of agriculture.
Later the pueblo makers came and built their
mud and stone apartment houses on the ruins
of the first simple primitive pit-dwellings.
They, too, passed away before the dawn OF his
tory, leaving their pottery and the crumbling
walls of their houses to tell a mute story. Then
the Piutes came, with a native culture of their
own building cities on top of the dead cities OF
the basket makers and the Pueblos.
In May President Hoover withdrew, tempo
rarily, approximately 144,000 acres of the pub
lie lands of the Moapa River Valley, pending
study of the valley with view to the desira-
bility Of including all or part of it within q
national preserve. Government scientists are
now at work within the area and have reported
to Washington that the valley Of Fire" is a
marvellous exposure Of Enthusiastically eroded,
flaming cross-bedded sandstone" lying in
the desert waste just west Of st. Thomas, New,
and contains an important petrihed forest
area"
THESE scientists have also reported that they
have found countless Indian Photographs
including the only known ones Of the atlatl and
the dart. The atlatl was q stick foot and q
half by two feet in length, with groove near
the top into which the Indians fitted the end
of spear for throwing. Because of the in
creased leverage thus obtained, they could
throw the spear great distances with speed and
accuracy
The method Of using the atlatl has hereto
fore been mainly matter of conjecture, but
newly discovered photographs show the way In
which it was hurled.
In the valley there are large villages of clay,
wood and stone, made by prehistoric peoples Of
upward Of a thousand years ago. Four such
villages are known, and there probably are
others in the same area. The most famous Of
these deserted cities is Pueblo Grande de Ne
