GIRL FROM NENANA
 |s GRADUATE FROM
 MOOsEHEART SCHOOL

Here is the brief story of an Alas kan girl who has made good. The story concerns Kathleen Dorothy Kay of Panama. There was time eight years ago. when the future looked dark indeed for young Kath- leen. Her father had died. Soc believed that there was no help for the child but the cold charity of the world.
 But happily they were mistaken. It was discovered that the father had died in good standing in the Loyal Order of Moose. This fact changed the whole outlook for the child Kathleen. What this change really meant to the orphan girl, ac- cording. to Al Nobbs, Secretary of the Tanana Moose Lodge No. 1426, was this:
 Immediately afte~ the death of Kathleen's father, application was made to the Governor of Moose heart by the officers of the lodge for the admission of the child to Mooseheart, our nationally known trade and academic school near Chicago, in Illinois, founded in 1913 by Senator James J. Davis of Penn sylvania, and maintained by the Moose fraternity. Since depen- dency was clearly shown the ap- plication was granted and Kath- leen entered Mooseheart in Septem- Der, 1924.
 For eight years," continued MT

 Washington, Dec 17.-(UP)--. Latest prohibition developments>i Sin congress led to-day to the conclu- sion that beer, wine and repeal of the 18th amendment are blocked for this winter.
 But definite speedy action is expected from the new congress af- ter March 4.
 Informed observers believe the prohibition dispute In the short session is a sham battle with no de- cision likely. This is despite de- velopments which a year ago would have been interpreted as smashing anti-prohibition victories.
 The house ways and means com- mittee has reported < tfavorahly Q 3.2 per cent beer amendment to the Volstead act.
 A senate Judiciary sub-commit- tee is developing Q repeal resolu- ton along lines which may attract support not only of vets but of such prohibitionists as Senator Borah, rep. Idaho. And even more important, both major par- ties are pledged to change in some degrees.
 Against these developments fav- orable to anti-prohibftionist is an interesting other-side-of-the-pic- ture.
 The house committee jettisoned wine in approving beer. That alienates powerful support from grape growing areas. especially California.
 Informed republicans assert. pri- vataiy that President Hoover may be expected to veto the proposed beer bill if it passes despite this loss of support. It is believed that there will not be two-thirds maj ority in congress to legalize beer over Mir Hoover's objections.
 There remains repeal. Speaker Garner and House Majority Lead- CT Rainey failed by six votes on the opening day to win adoption or adopt an outright repeal resolution. Garner thereupon announced off the floor that he would not per-

HARD WEATHER
 FOR MlLKMEN
Not of One Mind on Posi- ton of This
 Morning
ADMIT IT WAS COLD

Almost everybody you talk with has a different story to tell about the weather conditions. The milk men, some of them, say the ther- mometer was below zero at 6 o'clock this morning, while others claim that it did not go as far as that, but admit it was not far from it. They say it depends on where ones route is located. The Dublin street station is said to be cold spot but in the opinion of some it isalmost like summer weather out there, compared with conditions around the West Main street bridge and the car barns.
 Like as not it depends some on the man. If he Is in the enjoyment of good health clothed for the occasion and content with his po- sition in life he can stand any kind of weather and be happy, otherwise he is bound to find it hard sledding to get around at the peep of day these hard freezing mornings.

HOW CONQUER
 TUBERCULOSIS
Needs Care and Skill of the Practical Trained
 Nurse
IN SANATORIUM

Public health nursing holds q very definite place in the defenses established to protect the public health of Connecticut citizens, it was shown by Olive $. Devlin, field worker in the bureau of public health nursing of the state depart ment of health, in the depart ments weekly broadcast which bore the title "When fellow needs friend"
 Using one case as typical ex- ample, she explained how the nurse in crisp blue uniform wkh white collar and cuffs played 8 particularly important. role in car ing for the needy who in addition suffering poor health. In those communities which have a public health nurse, she is subject to the call of its residents. She goes. to the home and administers to the patients no matter what the ail- ment. She becomes friend to all, the expectant mother, the infant, the preschool and school child, those who are ill and those who are well.
 The case cited was that of a young foreigner who could speal; very little English and had few &C., quaintances. A year after his ar rival in town he was taken sick confined to bed, his money was gone and he was wholly dependent on the care of strangers. The public health nurse was called and learned through a conference with the physician that the diagnosis was tuberculosis. Application fol institutional care was made by tho nurse and pending removal to . sanatorium she had him changed to another room, light and airy and instructed a neighbor regard ing his care and proper diet. The young mans mental attitude changed from one of depression to courage and cheerfulness. Chiefly because of the attention and kind sympathy of his new friend, he has learned how to fight and to overcome tuberculosis.

The thing to do is to clean the walk in front of your own property and never mind whe- ther your neighbor attends to it or not. There are many who think it well night impossible to comply with the law and others would do it anyway. old folks who have no- body but themselves should be ex- cused from this kind of sendeavor, but the walks should be cleaned.

 If MT Hoover. should contem- plate a return from Elba, he would plan his operations largely on the basis of information reported by Richey.
