CITY MAY SELL
SCHOOL BOOKS

The Alexandria School Board
has made tentative plans for the
furnishing of school books to the
pupils in both high and graded
schools instead of having them
furnished by private concerns.
According to the outline of the
proposition made to the board,
the present cost of books for each
pupil in the graded schools is
about IS a year and in the high
schools about $12. Under the new
plan the cost will be cut to $1.50
for graded school children and
$3.50 for the high schools
students.
The plan is based on the board
taking over the books of students
in the schools as they are ad-
vanced grades or graduated and
reselling them to the students
entering those grades the next
year. In addition the board will
purchase about $4,000 worth of
new books next year.

KELLER MAKES GOOD AS EDUCATOR

w. K. Keller, who retired March l. after two years Territorial Commissioner of Education, in the past decade has demonstrated his ability an educator and executive. His record as Superin-
 endent of Schools Fairbanks where his first work in the Alaskan education field was performed, was of such high character as to result in him being called to this city in similar capacity. Locally he more than duplicated his fine achievements in Fair banks Taking oyer the schools when they were sadly disorganized and doing but indifferent work, he brought them to high state of efficiency and put them the highest plane educationally. This stepping stone to the head of the Territory's Department of Education, position to which he was elected in 1930 assuming office the following March. candidate for reelection, he was defeated by A. E. Karnes, Democrat, whose own record as Superintendent of Schools at Ketchikan was on a plane equal to that of MT. Keler's here.
 It cannot, be said that MT Kelers defeat was the result of any official shortcomings As Com missioner of Education he rendered excellent service He advanced the standards of the schools without increasing the cost of education. Rather he brought about substantial reductions and saved material sum from the amount appropriated for the system by the 1881 Legislature. He political casualty. He had the unfortunate appellation Republican" attached to his the official ballot and 1892 was disastrous year for candidates of that party from President down to the humblest office He the only Republican candidate for Terri torial office to have majority in more than one Division and he carried three-all except the First Division Here where the big vote is, the tide ran too strong for Democracy for him.
 This is not derogatory to his successor. MT. Karnes was better known in the First Division than elsewhere and that big factor in the fine vote
 he received in every precinct The Territory is for
 unate in having two educators of such outstanding
 note from which to select it's Commissioner of
 Education and equally fortunate in that MT Keller is remaining as Superintendent of Schools at Anchorage.
