Navy Born Is Swift-paced Story of Bachelor Avia-
 tors Rearing Baby

Power dives in a naval pursuit plane headed straight down at the camera will give theatre audiences a new and breath-taking thrill in Navy Born Republics hilarious naval aviation comedy which brings William Gargan, Claire Dodd, Clau- dia Coleman, Douglas Fowley and other stars to the Coliseum Theatre.
 Climbing 5000 feet into the sky, an official test pilot put his plane into the power dive toward the camera. He was only a hundred feet above the wide open Tense when he strengthened out, making the camera crew duck just as will the audience.
 Navy Born" is the swift-paced story, published in Cosmopolitan Magazine by Mildred Cram, of bach elor naval aviators who inherit a two-weeks old baby, having pledged themselves to adopt and train it into an eventual admiral. Miss Dodd, as the child's wealthy aunt, who tries to get the baby boy into her possession, provides the complica- tions which create an evening full of laughs and thrills.

DR. COUNCIL.
 ISSUES URGE TO CITIZENS
Keep Cities Clean to Make Fine I'm pression
 Upon Tourists

Uurging cleanup campaign of seacoast towns and settlements of Alaska, Dr. w. w. Council, Terri torial Commissioner of Health, to- day pointed out the need of making as fine an impression as possible upon tourists visiting Alaska this summer
 Steamship companies report that advance bookings indicate a record number of tourists will visit Alaska this season" Dr. Council said. When these tourists arrive, we have a real opportunity to make friends for Alaska who will hence forth take a genuine interest in matters affecting the Territory. These visitors will talk about AL aska to their friends at home. If their impressions are favorable, their descriptions will bring other visitors. We should see that their reports of Alaska are truly enthus- iaStic.
 Vivid Memories Our visitors always carry home vivid and delightful memories of our scenery-the rugged shores, rushing streams and waterfalls, and the great expenses of timber. The romance of Alaskan life, and the picturesqueness of our industries, particularly the fishing and pack ing of salmon, are always of great interest to our visitors from the 1 Outside. The fishing industry which is an everyday affair to Alaskans is full of the unusual for tourists, many of whom live hundreds of miles from the sea- The boats, seinas and canneries are novel and interesting sights to these people. They add color and human interest to the scenic attractions of Alaska for the average visitor
 Cleanup Around Homes
 If all our people, especially those living along the seacoast will carry Olt O PAifdtC NiCdl1 up dlAfC dlOullQ their own homes, making the settle ments surrounding the salmon can- neries as attractive in appearance as possible, the. favorable impression which are modern salmon canner- ies give to visitors will be height ened and they will carry away im- pressions of busy and capable pop ulation, as well as a scenically won- derful country" Dr. Council con- tinued.
 This favorable feeling for AL aska can be of great value when questions touching on the Territory are before the country. Too, an impression of cleanliness and san- litation will do much to increase lthe market for the vast supply of sea food which Alaska supplies the world, and from which so many Alaska residents derive their liveli- hood"

Although my first Alaskan ex- perience was obtained at what is generally considered to be most bleak and forlorn post, found the place not at all bad. We had a few strong blows during the winter but, though there was plenty to keep us busy and the time went quite fast, nothing out of the way or es- pecially adventurous happened dur ing the year 1 was there. Our little community on St. Paul of twenty one white persons, was most upset during the time that Mrs. Fucha, wife of four head radioman was ly- ing i'll and the cutter Tallapoosa was coming to her aid.
 Reindeer, as well as the natives are increasing fast on St. Paul Is- land. The reindeer herd now num- bers about 1,500 head and there are nearly 300 natives on the island an increase of about thirty natives Fox raising is also doing very well since my arrival there year ago. especially on St. George Island, which is too precipitous for the rein deer to do too well there.
 Seal had begun to arrive before II left, and a large number of sea lion had already established them selves at their rookery,
 "Yes, We all had plenty to keep us busy at St. Paul, we had a congenial little community, and enough things happened all the time to keep us happy. I only hope that I will like it as well at my new and more metropolitan post" Mir Brown con Icluded.
 Radioman Brown disclosed that

POPPY DAY IS
 NEXT SATURDAY
Little Red Flowers Will Be Sold Through Day
 What They Mean

Next Saturday will be Poppy Day in Juneau and the little red flower should be worn by all Here are a few facts all should know concern ing the Poppy.
 The memorial poppy is a replica of the peoples which grew on the battle fields of France and Belgium during the World War.
 The poppy was chosen as the me morial flower for the World War dead because it grew where they fell, the one touch of beauty in the desolated battle areas.
 The peoples are made by disabled War Veterans working in govern 1aent hospitals and poppy work rooms under tn edirection of the American Legion Auxiliary.
 The peoples are distributed by wo- men and girls of the American Le- zion Auxiliary and cooperating or ganizations, working as unpaid vol unteerS.
 Contributions for the peoples are used to support the work of the American Legion and Auxiliary for the welfare of disabled veterans their families and the families of the dead.
 Every American Legion poppy bears a Legion and Auxiliary label which gives assurances that it is a. veteran-made flower and that ev- cry penny contributed for it will go into Legion and Auxiliary welfare funds.
 Wearing the poppy means that the wearer is honoring the war dead and aiding the wars living vic- tiins.

1t is also passing strange that among

In sculpture, even more than in
painting. the American Indian has
served as subject. Our early Amer

widely known.
MUCH may be said in praise of the
other painters OF the Taos and
Santa Fe schools not represented in

instances represented at their best in
the Corcoran Gallery's permanent
collection. Walter Ufer, in particu-
lar, ranks high. Deming, who is rep
resented in this collection, is as well
known, If not better, as an illustrator

include not only easel pictures, but
murals. Mr.. Deming spent several

is represented in the Evans collection

won distinction by her portraits of
Indians, one Of which has been ac-
quired by the CorcOran Gallery of Art

mention for achievement in this field.

Finally, mention may be made of
a collection of 81 portraits of Ameri-

commission from the Great Northern

exhibited among the museums of this
country and later shown with acclaim
