Bishop Rowe Ready To
Send Man To St. Philips

Word was received from Bishop
Rowe on Mondays boat that a man
to take charge of ST. Philips would
be available by October /, and the
finance committee appointed some
time ago to ascertain how much of
the salary can be raised by the par
ishioners is anxious to get in touch
with anyone interested
Form letters were sent out
couple of weeks ago TO every name
on the list of communicates of the
church, old and young, with the ex-
ception of a few who are i'll, and
the response has been very encour-
aging. The bishop has promised to
meet half of the salary if the cong
regation can take care of the other
half and running expenses and the
committee feels that this can be
done if all will do their part.
A number of letters have been
sent TO friends of the church who
have been suggested to the commit
tee but if anyone who would like to
help has been overlooked, the nat
ter can be remedied by phoning Mrs
Kirkland, acting secretary of the
Guild, or Mrs. NJ. o. Johnson.

1000 Pianos in Alaska
Reports Juneau Tuner

There's music in the hearts OF
the sourdoughs of the north, reports
the Anchorage Times, and at least
1000 pianos are in daily use
throughout Alaska, according to
George Anderson OF Juneau, veteran
piano tuner.
Mr.. Anderson is in Anchorage on
one OF his many swings around the
territory tuning up the pianos. 1t
may seem queer to those not famil-
lar with Alaska if they are told Mr..
Anderson is kept busy tuning
pianos. But he is busy.
In Anchorage alone there are
more than 500 pianos, Mr.. Anderson
said. When one considers that the
freight from the states is quite an
item on a piano, he can readily see
that the pianos are here because OF
an earnest desire OF the owners to
nave music.
Mr.. Anderson said pianos are ali
over the territory, many Indians
owning instruments in remote set

nigh as $50 to travel to various
communities to tune a piano, he
disclosed.
The piano expert estimated that
Juneau has more pianos than any
other one city in the territory, and
ne placed the number at $50. ket-
chikan has between 400 and 500, he
said.
Wrangell has 100, Sitka IS to
100, Skagway 35 and many other
southeastern homes have pianos fot
the family use. In central Alas. :"
Anchorage and Fairbanks lead with
SEQ each. Mr.. Anderson estimated
the number of pianos in other
towns as 100 in Seward, 200 in
Cordoya. IS in Valdez, 100 to $50
in Nome.
Mr.. Anderson pointed out that he
travels great distances within the
arctic circle caring for pianos.
Point Barrow has one and Point
Hope has a small organ BEETLES has
three pianos, Ruby 6, Candle s.
Kotzebue 7. Even the little Indian
village of Wales has a piano, he
said.

Well, l was glad to see that tl.
members OF the Chamber OF Con-
.nerce adopted the resolution asking
me tame Commission to set aside
me Virginia Lake area as an in
violable game sanctuary. | sincerely
nope that everyone will respect the
law so that We can have good moose
hunting near here in the years to
come. The natural increase from the
moose located in this area should
make good hunting in the surround
ing country. OF course, this does
not mean that you cannot fish on
the lake or river but it makes the
carrying OF gun illegal within the
Confines of the reserve. The reserve
covers about a hundred square miles
ana starts from where Mill creek
enters the back channel, extends
both ways a distance of five miles
anu then back into the country ten
miles.
There seems to be quite a few
parties gong out for the first. | I'M

we hope that they have good luck
Cope Mundy is not going to take
any chances with his health while

l understand that the long
shanks trio, consisting of the two
Coulter boys and the banker, will
not get together for the first day
as Harry is going over to Lake Bay
1 understand that somebody told
him that the banker had been do
ing a lot of practicing lately so
perhaps he figured it might be best
to do little himself before he
staked his reputation. John Coulter,
Fred Gunderson and the banker will
try their luck on Browns Island the

turned from hunting up the Stikine

old saying that you can never tell
what you will get when you have a

By the way, how about taking
that old kodak along and if you
have not already done so, starting a
hunting album. 1t will give you a
great deal of pleasure in the years
to come when you look it over.

WONEN'S CLUB
GIVEN GAVEL
HISTORIC WOOD

The high light of the september
meeting of the Women.s civic Club,
neld last Saturday, was the presen-
tation of a beautiful black walnut
gayel to the club by Mrs o. NJ.
Plummer of Portland. Oregon, who
visited here last summer. Mrs. F. s.
Barnes, her daughter, made the pre-
sentation. The gavel is connected
in a most interesting way with his
toric Mount Vernon and its story
was incorporated in the minutes Ct
the club at the request of the mem
bers.
In 1907 Mr.. and Mrs. Plummer
visited Mount Vernon and while
standing beneath a large black wal
nut tree, a nut from the tree
dropped to the ground No one is
permitted to carry away as much as
leaf from that historic place, it is
said. but Mrs. Plummer was grant
ed the privilege of retaining the
nut which had fallen at her feet and
he took it back to Portland and
planted it in the Plummer yard. 1t
sprouted the following year and the
tree has attained a height of about
IS feet. Needless to say. it has al
ways received special care and has
responded splendidly.
First Gavel
Many things have been made
rom cuttings of the tree and Mrs.
Plummer who was a guest at the
Tub luncheons while here. con-
.eiyed the plan of presenting the
organization with a gavel made
from the priced descendant of
Mount Vernon wood. In thanking
Mrs Plummer through Mrs. Barnes
FOR the gift, the president stated
hat it was the first time in its %
ears Of existence that the club has
owned a gaYel, ad it will be doubly
priced because of its association.
a letter of thanks for courtesies
rendered, received from one of the
smaller delegations of the Business
and Professional Women's clubs
that toured Alaska in July, was
