You've got to know just what

with-himself truck driver to the
astonished throng of traffic
janmed citizens as he whispered
in the mules ear and led him
away, pleasantly.
The long-eared one chose to
balk crosswise of main street,
completely blocking the narrow
thoroughfare.
Other drivers and the per-
picked owner had coddled him;
talked sweetly, then gruffly; had
twisted his ear and did every
thing but build a fire under him
before the mule-wise truck driver
came along with his whispering
stunt.

 Since the "ismsm sub iect arose Q fow weeks ago I have had an inquiry along that line too. We have become so accus toned to ARRC "isms" we just take those for granted and wonder what Is coming next. It started in the States with wi Id prolni es-- how you could work for standard Alaskan wages, get q set of farm bui ldings and fresh start for S32OO etc. Then one thin- after another till the one COW Tor two "isms". But as I say the dictatoria1 ARRC rulings have become so common we just wonder what comes next. Some criticise butt wi tn most of us-- VIC expect it '7ut-----
 Some time ago the Aatanuska Valley voters elected a school board-- some who naT perhaps, at some time have criticised ARRC di ctatorial methods too. They win in the election thru S one mysterious citizens committee having rounded them up and appar- ent1y coerced certain promises out Of them. Tho this citizens committee is no one seems to know nor who ar. ointed or elect ed them. The issues at stake were certainly imperative as cars were sent over the Valley to coITect the voters. Now We learn that this newly elected school board has passed Q rosolut ion that no farm resid- ing or owning teacher is to be retained and what is more they are using their inf 1uence in keeping teachers from oec coming Colonists. Who lays down the law to the school board? Surely it emit be narr roW--,ninded dneSS.

voted on at the school meetings Tn removing our farm minded teachers we Ire taking away the best our children get in school. For who has rural child so at heart as Q farm minded teacher?

 A great number of hopeless farmers have recently loft the Valley, why not let the Valley profit by replacing them with sorlo moro quality teachersI? We certainly need more folks in the Valley with moro ability than most of those recently departed have shoWn-- pe op1e with interest in the better things in life and the ability to attend q meeting while sober!
 Some one argues--no fair to let them live on these places and pay no rent. Since when did the ARRC fail to collect rent And when you own place you don't live there long (espe ecially e farm) before all you make goes into it. Then too, if these teachers don't qualify as farmers tho ARRC has the power to evict them in 30 days. So what moro 60 we want?

When he returned To jamestown

lion OF the Indian maiden's heroic
defiance Of her fathers order for
Smiths execution. Instead, Smith
wrote that Powhatan had treated
him well, made him presents Of
food and sent him home with four
guides.
When Smith visited Pocahontas,
then the wife of John Rolfe, dur
ing her brief residence IN England,
she failed TO recognize him and
had no recollection of having
saved his life. Il was not until
1924, seven years after Pocahon-
tas' death, that the full story of
The rescue was told with all its
Elamorous details. The number OF
guides had increased TO a dozen
BY that time.
