POLITICAL
PERISCOPE

Kari Drager of Anchorage. whose
stentorian tones were heard often
in the deliberations of the House at
The last legislative session. won't be
present to put on his "Huey Long
act when the next Legislature meets
in January. That is he won't be IN
less he happens to cast his lot as
an Independent and gets elected
without party affiliation.
The nimble-tongued Mr.. Drager
was elected two years ago from the
Third Division as a Democrat and
sang the praises of the Democratic
party with considerable gusto at the
Legislative session. Just how the es-
teemed gentleman from the Third
happened to be affiliated with the
Democrats always was a little of a
mystery to many who knew him in
Ketehikan before he went to the
Westward to live. for in the First
City. Mr.. Drager used TO cast his lot
with the Republicans.
This year when he went up to
file with the Clerk of the Court in
the Third it develops. your Peris-
copper is informed, that some one
challenged his right to do so on the
Democratic ticket on grounds that
the law provides that a candidate
in order to qualify must have voted
in the party. on the ticket of which
he proposes to file, in the last two
general elections. 1t seems Mr.. ORA
ger had done a little Republican
voting down Ketchikan way.
But. ask the curious. how was he
able to file two years ago on the
donkey riders ticket, and serve his
SO days in the House. Only answer
appears to be that nobody bothered
much about Mr.. Drager's party at
filiation two years ago up in the
Third. At any rate he wasn't ehal-
lenged.
Whether the oratOrical and color
ful Mr.. Drager will decide to step
aside from this party business al
together and file as an Independent
remains to be seen. He has until pri-
mary day April 80 to make up his
mind.

RADIANT LIVING
Citizens of the World
By Rev. C. nj. Griffeth
Ridgely, Md.

There are some travlers who, when
they pack their suitcases, cram into
them a considerable amount of criti-
cism, ridicule and contempt for every
thing abroad which they find to be
different from that to which they
have boone accustomed.
They regard all things from the
proud and naughty point of view of
possessing the greater enlightening
concerning all things. They consider
themselves as being right and all
others as being wrong.
Little do they realize the narrow
ness of their own minds, the cramped
limitations of their circumscribed no.
rizons, or their inability to absorb
added knowledge.
Such persons may travel abroad but
they will never be able to really meet
other people, to enter into their lives,
to catch their viewpoint or to feel
their spirit. All that they can bring
home with them is few trinkets that
they purchased here or there.
No man is so possessed of an abun-
dance of knowledge that he cannot
learn something from even the most
ignorant man.
Every man who is different from
you has something to impart to you
which will enrich your knowledge
broaden your viewpoint and add tt
your experience.
Radiance does not beam from 6
mind that is compressed into the re-
strictions of personal selfishness, in
generating prejudices, and freezing
hauteur.
Radiance streams forth from 6
mind that eagerly seeks knowledge
from all sources, that has a hand
shake for every man and that has 6
sensibility that can feel the heart
beat of others.
The radiant man has become a citi
zen of the world, he is interested ir
every country, he considers himself
a brother to every man.
