School Strong
 For Supt. Rasmussen

That Wrangel is a town of many surprises was evidenced this week when it became known that Supt A Rasmussen of the Wran- gell Public Schools. had failed of reelection for the coming year by two-to-one school board vote.
 To quiet the many rumors that were flying about town, MT. Ras- mussen addressed the assembly Thursday afternoon for less than two minutes. He told the students that he could not honestly say that he had resigned, as the fact was that a majority vote of the school board had decided against him. He stated that he and his foster son. Dick, would not be with them next year. that he was sorry and hoped that the remainder of the school year would continue to be pleasant
 After Mr Rasmussen left the assembly the student body organi- zed into an indignation meeting. A suggestion that the students go on strike in protest of the school board action, was overcome by the advice of the Student Body president. A delegate proceeded down town to a man the youngsters regarded as their friend and asked his help to draft petition for presentation to the citizens as it was understood one school board member believed that 200 of the voters desired a change in school superintendents, and the high school Student Body thought he was mistaken.
 A petition was drawn up at school by the youngsters which was voluntarily signed by every student, according to officers of the Student Body.
 The element of surprise in the situation is that while rarely is a teacher dismissed without at least 6 few pupils expressing regret, sell dom is an educator so compliment ed that the entire student body. stands as a unit in protesting his dismissal and in every possible way demonstrate their loyalty and af- lection and appreciation of his eff forts for their welfare.
 At a noon meeting today of the Student Body, the youngsters in corporated some of their ideas on the situation into a letter whict, they asked the Sentinel to publish. This letter appears in another co., umn, exactly as it was written. In cidentally, 1t will be Illuminating to the adults to whom 1t Is adress- ed, as it unconsciously reveals that boys and girls are far from being unobservant of the life of the com munity in which they live.

JIG. Johnson Completes G. E. Course in Seattle

 Mr Johnson went south a month ago for the purpose of attending the General Electric Air Condition ing and Sales Engineering School in Seattle. The school was con ducted under the supervision of J. Parkingtcn, a representative en- gineer from the factory at Bloom field, New Jersey assisted by Ed. House, district engineer of the Par, fife Coast division with offices in San Francisco. The course W 2 more difficult than was anticipat- ed owing to the advanced engineer ing deyeiopments coy ring air COn- fitioning but MT. Johnson feels that the time, effort and expense invoi- yed was justified.
 Air Conditioning is an industry which is bsing developed to such an extent that it is proving an ab- solute necessity for the comfort and health of the modern populace and no home or business building is considered up-to-date without the inclusion of this equipment.
 MT Johnson feels that while he is comparatively new in the field he gained sufficient knowledge of rhe subject to be able to give re liable information regarding the problems of comfort in the home or place of business.
