COLONY SCHOOL. TROUBLES ARE
 NOW ADJUSTED
Pupils Attending Both Wa silla and P alm CT as
 Originally Planned

Differences relative to school at tendance at the Matanuska Valley colony have been ironed out accord ing to A. E. Karnes, Commissioner of Education, who returned to his office here this morning on the Yu- kon.
 Some trouble had arisen in the colony over some of the children attending the Wasilla school. Some families wanted their children to Igo to Palmer although they were in the Wasilla district. After talking to those effected by the district lines, and explaining that it was impossible to handle all of the pupils in Palmer and preparations had been made to handle them at Was fila, the matter was quickly adjust ed, the Commissioner said, and those in the Wasilla district are now attending the Wasilla school The school enrolment about the Territory is about the same as last year, although there is some in- crease in some of the larger cen ters, Commissioner Karnes report led. Anchorage has about an eight per cent increase and Seward and Fairbanks expect few more. Cor dova may be off little and rural schools are about the same as last term.
 One new school was started this year, at Healy. Years ago there was a school there but it has mol operated for a long time. In tht last year several families have nov
 ed into that community, making
 it necessary to have school thi year, the official said.
 The Commissioner visited mos
 of the school districts on his annua
 inspection trip and found most 0 them in fine shape, he reported.
