Mrs. Syverud Stresses
Importance Home Job

Mrs. Florence Syverud, district
home demonstration agent for south
eastern Alaska, extension service of
the University of Alaska, left ON the
Yukon Tuesday morning after spend
ing a week in Wrangell
Held in Ketchikan by the recent
shipping tie-up, Mrs. syverud could
not reach Wrangell on February 13
as planned. During her three-weeks'
stay in Ketchikan she held "a meet
ings at which more than $50 per-
sons were present, organized three
adult university extension home
makers clubs and completed the or
ganization of two All clubs Organi-
cation of two other All clubs which
were incomplete when she left were
expected to be fully organized with
in few days.
The adult clubs are active the
year round. Interesting programs
are being worked out in Ketchikan,
Mrs. Syyerud reports, for the meet
ings which are held once a month in
carries on a home making project
and at the meetings members report
on home making articles they have
b cad during the month. Demonstra-
tions are scheduled for each meeting
of some phase of the art of home
making and a part of each pro-
gram is devoted to health education.
There is so much that can be
done to make homemakers more alive
to the opportunity of their jobs
Mrs. Syverud said at Wrangell,
Women should think of home
making" she continued, "as a scien-
tific experiment. 1t is reported that
more than one-third of the suffer-
ing from preventable illnesses is due
| to the poor selection and preparation
of food If we are to make home
making a profession we have to de-
vote time and thought and study to
| it."
But 1t is heartening, Mrs. Sy-
verud says, to find in Alaska towns
so many women responsive to the
home making service which is being
extended to them. They welcome the
opportunity to actively engage in
studying new and better methods
in homemaking and bring fine at
titude to the supremely important
job of making a good home. 1t is
her firm conviction that when home
makers function 100 percent, there
will be no institutions in the land
for delinquent children.

The services of an ethnologist ex-
perienced in field work in the
North Pacific Coast and southwes-
tern Alaska, may be needed to study
the Shakes Island inheritance be-
fore either the Town of Wrangell
or the United States can gain title
to the property for museum purposes
according to word received by the Al
aska Native Brotherhood from As
sistant Secretary of the Interior
Oscar L. Chapman.
The Brotherhood some time ago
made representations through Dele
gate Anthony Dimond asking that
the old Shakes community house and
the entire island be declared a ma
tional monument for the preserva-
ton of the remaining relics of Ma
tive culture in Wrangell. The Broth
erhood maintained that the island
was communal holdings belonging
to the Non-ya-ai-yee family or clan.
and could be disposed of only by
the descendants of this family. and
in accordance with tribal law.
Shakes Will

Chief Shakes made a will in which
he renounced all tribal laws and
customs, and provided a life estate
for his widow, with power to sell as
much of the property as was neces-
sary for her maintenance, the resi-
due of the estate to go to his son,
George.
On May %, 1888, Mrs. Shakes ap-
piled for and received a restricted

and he believed that the city should
cooperate with them in all possible

There can be no hope for early
action in meeting the radio inter-
ference problem in Wrangell, it de-
veloped at the meeting of the city
council last night. H. Wellons, light
plant operator, asked for instruc-
tions as to the interference finder

mann, Canton, Mass, for repairing.
The company, he said, reported that
the instrument was not worth re-
pairing but allowance of $50 would
be made on the cost of a new one;
net cost would be 500.
The purchase of other interference
equipment was authorized last Janu-
airy by the council AS it has not
arrived and its efficiency in Wran-
CELL cannot, therefore, be definitely
known, Councilman Olof Hansen re-
commended the matter of purchasing
new interference finder be delay
ed until next fall.

pensaries to sell hard liquor by the
emerged from a house committee
Monday with a recommendation that
it do pass.
However, many possible amend
ments are limited, including reduc-
ton of the proposed $500 annual
license fee. The bill already has
passed the senate. If approved by
the house with amendments, the bill
will go to conference for whipping
into final shape before going to the
