 Go North, Young Lady, Go North, it is said, is to be the new slogan in the States This is due to School Commissioner Karnes remark that lady teachers come north with the serious intention of following their profession, but the big, strong men of the mining creeks and fishing fleets prove too irresistible as wooers' Recent Wrangell history does not disprove such a statement, rather the contrary when we recall that Wrangell has lost to Dan Cupid one teacher during each of the last three consecutive school years. Misses Ann Patrylo, Helen Gorton and Virginia Shedd were their names
