 Ut has been called to the at tention of the Grand Jury and we approve Of the system of allowing prisoners who have been sentenced to terms in the Federal jails in the First Division, District of Alas ka, to labor on public works in towns of this district, where there are no funds to carry on such works. Work has been done in and around Juneau, Douglas, Petersburg and Skagway. We heartily com mend this system as put into effect by the Director of Federal Prisons, Honorable Sanford Bates, and United States Marshal Albert White which has done much good for the prisoners and fer the communities.

 When the Freshies arrived at the party they found their hosts ready with a variety of stunts in which they were to participate. First, they were blindfolded. then required to take off their shoes and walk In their stocking feet over cracked corn and while still blindfolded to eat cold spaghetti.
 After the Freshies had been put through a number of stunts they were required to further amuse the assembly by giving limitations of the high school teachers when in a bad humor. Ruby Everson gave an imitation of MT. Scudder scoiding a pupil Fred Grant showed how Miss Brunsvcld acted when in chastis- ing mood, while Lois Wheeler gave an exhibition of Miss Simpson when patience had ceased to be a virtue. Laurie Brood initiated Mir. Fabri- cius confronting an erring pupil and Peter Casey gave most faithful characterization of MT. Rasmussen descending in righteous indignation upon a pupil who was showing poor school citizenship.

 Press dispatches and radio news alike are meagre and conflicting Mrs. Winnie Ruth Judd, 27, wife of Dr. W. O. Judd, is held for the murder Various motives are ad- vanced for the shocking brutality of the murders, but definite word is not now available about any phase Of the tragedy.

LYNX RAISING YUK0N'S
 NEWEST FUR INDUSTRY

When it comes to originality one has to hand it to George Simmons, the aggressive Carcross fur rancher, says the Whitehorse Star. Despite the fact that he has $50 mink to care for and feed George has start ed a brand new industry the first of it's kind in existence. In a wooden corral close to his home he has ten live lynx which he trapped and brought in to captivity. The lynx are kept in individual cages inside the corral and seem to like the domestic life. It is quite a sight to see these shaggy wildcats in their modern home, but, oh, myl Judging from the looks and snarls with which they greet a stranger it wouldn't be very nice to meet one of them alone on a dark night. And yet George says they are so tame now that he can feed them in the same manner as he would a pet dog. Maybe so, but give us the dog to feed every time.
