Maska, Where Marriage License npt Needed

Alaska for the past four years has had no law requiring marriage licenses.
 The Senate Judiciary Committee discovered this fact last week in con- sidering House bill No. 35, which would allow Notary Public to certi- fly marriage license applications. It was found that in amending the marriage license law four years ago the Legislature inadvertently had stricken the entire section requiring licenses.
 The Committee amended the House bill to insert the license re- quirement and, so patched up. the measure was rushed through the Senate late yesterday afternoon, car- rying an emergency clause so that the Territory can get back on a res pectables conjugal basis.

Everybody was busy. Everybody

There's no doubt about it, the
prison system is doing something

has already done something to
them: but Mr.. Sox and his asso-

these young prisoners for better
place in society when they come
out.
Teachers are furnished by the

then this correspondent is definite
y in favor Of boondoggling and all
its works. The teachers at the Cary
camp arc Mesdames Mary K. Kill

and Annie Ragland.
But when the classes are over
and the boys begin to talk sports
there are the same arguments, the
same heroes. the same loyalties as
in other units. For instance. Cen

to play Caledonia Farm on New
