WSHINGTON, Oct. 17.-The Pa cific rolls again beneath the feet of a sea-going President, heading for the crossroads of two great oceans the Panama canal, dedicated by him more than a year ago o'all nations in the needs of peaceful commerce. ''
 The west traversed, the political speeches over, Franklin D. Roosevelt settles down for fishing excursion and leisurely cruise expected to bring him back to Washington early iii November another in a serie that has taken him since 1883 to mos of the far-away places where fife the American flag.
 AS Governor of New York he es tablished a mileage record for per sonal trips over the state and is i. a fair way to set up another as { sea-roving President, adding, on thl journey, 15,OO0 miles to a total all ready high.
 Doctrine of Good Neighbor"
 Steaming through the canal on July II last year, MT. Roosevelt be- came the first President ever tc make the transit passage while in office.
 The Isthmus of Panama, however, was first visited by MT. Roosevelt ir 1912.
 Last year. in an address there President Roosevelt spoke of the canal as being held in trust for all the world.
 He travels through the canal this time having preached in advance at San Diego the doctrine of good neighbor."
 There, as war crept up in Ethi- opia, he left behind VOW that this country shall and must remain unentangled and free"
 "A Good Job"
 From the tone of the whole west ern speaking trip observers believe MT. Roosevelt sought to prove that the administration had done good job in promoting recovery, and that it would pitch the battle of 1886 upon the proposition that, having done it's job, it would stand upon the record.
 This trip by the President, travel ing aboard the cruiser Houston in the role of Commander -In-C Chief of the Navy, probably will be his long, est since assuming office. A 13-0oo- mile cruise last summer to Hawaii, through the Caribbean, to Puerto Rico, the Virgin islands, Haiti. Co., lombia and the Panama Canal was a close runner-up.
 The log. however. shows many an- other jaunt of varying length by the veteran voyager whose office is filled with ship models. These in clude several days down the Atlantic coast in September, 1883; two weeks in Atlantic waters in July of that year; trip of several days as skip lper of his own small schooner, the Amberjack II, in June; two weeks in Bahaman waters in April of 1884

ALASKANS NOTE. 6STH BtR I HDAY OF TERRITORY.
Conditions Vastly Improved Gov. Troy Says in
 Statement

There is good cause for observance of Alaska Day, tomorrow, the cath Anniversary of the date of the Unit ed States took formal possession Of Alaska at old Sitka, according to Statement of Gov. John w. Troy to- day calling attention to the holiday which will be noted by schools, if |nancial institutions, Territorial and Federal offices.
 Alaska greets her 68th birthday under favorable cirmucstances, Governor Troy said. Conditions throughout the Territory have vastly improved. and the increased pros- perity which start~d with Public Works activity approximately two years ago, has continued to the pres ent time. The results of government activities are everywhere important. During the peak of the seasons work, there were practically no unemployed in the Territory. Of course, due to the seasonal conditions, unemploy- ment is now apparent in several places and will increase as the winter season advances, creating govern mental problems which must be solved.
 "The increased price of gold has resulted in increased interest and greater activities in gold mining and prospecting. The next year will undoubtedly show a greater increase and activity than in the year just concluded.
 Indeed, Alaska has every reason to be optimistic on this Alaska Day.

GENEVA, Oct. i7.--Great Britain's dis atisfaction with Frances con- cil;atory attitude in the Italo- Etill- opian crisis, has been met with the detision Of French Premier Laval to lay before the French Cabinet the de- cision Of going the whole way with Great Britain in supporting the League of Nations punishment of Italy. This is according to advices received from Paris
 Great Britain served sharp no- tics on France to come out in the open, declaring that Italy does not %afit peace and there IS ilo use in att tempts to aroitrate along these lines.
 Takes Firm stand
 Great Britain has served notice she will not diminish her naval and other military forces in the Medi- terranean Sea and is also striving to hasten the buy nothing from Italy program through League sanc- tions. The Sanctions Committee ad- journed today for the second day without reaching a decision.
 Economic worries of some of the smaller countries are providing stumbling block for the Sanctions Committee.
 Near Breaking Poin.
 Rome observers express fears that the tension between Italy and Great Britain will crystalize to the break ing point with unforeseen rapidity
 The newest scene5 of activity to- day shifted to Alexandria where mili- tary authorities agree that the vast air base, sixteen miles from the city. will be the main British defense base in the event of sanctions that will probably create war.
 Battles Loom, Ethiopia
 In Ethiopia, both sides are pre- pairing cautiously for major battles which seem coming shortly.
 Emperor Halle Selassie has dis patched more cavalry and infantry to the support of both armies on the north and south fronts.
 The dread scourge of the Novem- Der fever may prove to be Ethiopia's ally.

Hall Order Especially Good.

Although our school is small, we
are always busy with our studies and
activities. One might think that with
the changing of classes. going to and
from various meetings, and especially
when school is let out at noon and at
4 o'clock our school would be a rath-
er noisy place. We are proud to say
that visitors to our school have COM
mented on our quietness in the halls
and in our passing. There are only
few unruly persons in the whole
school 1t is surprising to find. how
ever, that the grades are more quiet
in their passing than the high school,
This situation is being remedied I'M
der the helpful guidance of our
teachers.
Credit for our good conduct goes
chiefly to our teachers and to the
fact that the pupils respond to their
wishes.

Basketball.

quickly overlook Bruno and rang up
their seventh consecutive victory 81
to II. Up until this time the game
had been a nip and tuck affair with
the lead constantly changing but with
the start of the final period the Askov
boys "got going" and ran up COM
lead over their old rivals.
The Askov second team also won
over Bruno's seconds in a game that
was decided by the superior height
of the Askov boys.
This game marked the final appear
ance of the graduating seniors ON the
home floor. These seniors are Sigurd
Buck. Erwin Eriksen, and Clarence

school playing careers in the forth
coming tournaments.
This years team which by it's rec
ord is the strongest quintet ever pro-

repeatedly shown the ability to come
from behind to win games rather
than whiting as in previous years.
They should give a good account Of
themselves in the district tournament
