OUR HERITAGE

Lincoln and Washington both have
won
An enviable place for any nations

They gave their all nor sought a high

And left the interest as q heritage.
No records show that either made
Except by toiling steps that often
failed acclaim;
By heart break nights they must de-

Or desolate days time gave them all
alone.
Their achievement is ours, land Of the

Nor need we count the cost to them

For now we know one path is marked
for youth or age,
Unselfish work, decisive right, it is

Dan Cupid Takes Little
Interest In Wrangell

Dan Cupid is evidently on a strike
at Wrangell In the past six months,
but two marriage licenses have been
issued by L. S. Commissioner Rich
ard Suratt, one for Miss Annie
Worthington who married James
Johnson of Klawock and went to
Klawock to live, and the other for
Miss Betty Barnes and Clarence E.
Henning who are now in Seattle, but
will live in Ketchikan.
In contrast to the lack of interest
in matrimonial ties is noted the
activity of the stork, who continued
his frequent 1888 flights into this
year, and between January l and
June 80 visited thirteen homes, the
birth of eight boys and five girls
having been recorded in that time in
the commissioner office.

WASHINGTON, d. c. - The
construction of a $4,000 fisheries
experiment station in Ketchikan and
the dispatch of a scientist to the
Territory to determine the need for
revision of fisheries regulations were
disclosed Monday as being among
the first moves planned by Secretary
Harold L. Ickes as new chief of the
federal bureau of fisheries.
Ickes, whose interior department
inherited the bureau in the recent
shuffling of government agencies,
provided funds for the Ketchikan
experiment station just before Civ
ing up his job as head of the public
works administration The PWA, an
Ickes pet, went from the interior de-
partment in the same shuffling that
transferred the fisheries bureau.
Ickes allotted the PWA funds to
carry on fisheries projects author
lied by congress several years ago.
These projects included a fisheries
laboratory in Alaska, but the bureau
never pressed for the funds with
which to carry out the authorization
which was made when the late
Henry O'Malley was head of the
bureau.
Thus apparently the fund for the
laboratory is authorized without
strings attached. The territorial leg
islature two years ago appropriated
$4,000 to become available when
and if the federal government
matched that money.
simultaneously, Ickes requested
DIR. Carl Hubbs associate professor
of the University of Michigan. q

we're deadloeked in a dispute over
the discharge of an oiler.
The North Sea was posted and
ready to sail Friday morning at 10
o'clock for Southeast Alaska ports
when the engineers demanded thar
an oiler be discharged stating EN-
