disaster, a terrific explosion that
yesterday killed at least two score
of persons and injured hundreds,
couldn't have been an accident in
the opinion of r. r. Carpenter,
President of Dupont de Ne
mours.
Carpenter, who arrived in Juneau
yesterday by Electra from Fairbanks
after a mountain sheep hunt in the
Wood River country, is shocked with
news of the Hercules explosion.
I'VE haven't had an accident in
modern plants in years" Carpenter
said. 1T looks as though it must
have been sabotage. don't see how
else it might have occurred"
Carpenter. with K h orn dude
rancher Ernest Miller and nat
uralist, H. Green, from the American
Academy of Natural Sciences in
Philadelphia, secured five fine rams
of the Dali white mountain sheep
in the Wood River country for a
museum exhibit, packing in from
Healy for their hunt.
Green and Miller are remaining
in the Interior for time to collect
flora for the sheep group and make
it thoroughly authentic.
While in Juneau the Carpenters
are guests at the Baranof Hotel.

CONCERT ASSOCIATION DRIVE
Mrs. c. Leland HarmonsOn Repre-
sentative for Memberships Here


Mrs. c. Leland Harmonson will
be the local representative in the
drive for memberships in the Do
yer Cooperative Concert Associa-
ton, to begin with a dinner meet
ing at the Dover School Monday.
April s at $50. Mr.. Craig Hutch
inson will be present from the Co
lumbia Concerts Corporation to
give instructions to the workers
and to tell them about the pro-
grams available for next season.
General satisfaction has been ex-
pressed in the programs given the
two seasons Dover has had Cooper
ative Concerts. A goal of 900
members is anticipated this year.
Mayor Wallace Woodford is head
of the Dover Cooperative and Mrs.
Harry Mayer, membership drive
chairman. Headquarters in Dover
are at the home of the secretary,
Mrs. Emma Stewart, 219 S. State
Street. AS in the past, final selec-
tion of the third series will not be
made until after the close of the
drive when the exact amount Of
money available from membership
dues is known. This method pre-
cludes the possibility of any deficit
as the Association does not con-
tract for artists until the money to
pay for them is collected. Larger
memberships of course mean
more extensive choice of attrac-
tions.

A Community Building

A Community Building for
the town of Smyrna, although
just a dream at the present
time, is an idea worth a great
deal of thought and considera-
tion. The pleasure it would
bring to the young people. the
help it would be to those or
ganizations without a meeting
place, and the enjoyment Il
would provide for the people
of this town as a whole, could
not compare with the money
and the work necessary in the
realization Of such a project.
Mr.. Louis Caras is responsible
for the introduction of this
idea for a Community Build
ing, and it is Mr.. Caras who
deserves the praise and sup
port of this community. Such
progressive civic interest from
one who has lived here a COM
paratively. short time is very
commendable.

GREENFIELD OF LABRADOR

One of the worlds greatest humani-
taria was Sir Wilfred Thomason Gren-
fell whose long life of service came to an
en,- few days ago at the age II rs. Most
Of his years were spent in ministering to
the physical and spiritual welfare of La
brador fishermen, and he was universally
known as "Grenfell of Labrador
Born in England, Sir Wilfred was a
graduate of OXFORD University and re-
ceived his medical degree at London Hos
pital. He entered the service of the Royal
National Mission to Fishermen in 1889,
and fitted out the first hospital ship for
North Sea fishermen; also established
homes and missions for them.
In 1892 Dr. Grenfell went to Labrador
as a medical missionary, since which time
he raised funds for five hospitals, seven
nursing stations, two orphanages, two
large schools and operated several YES
sells for hospital and mission purposes,
cruising along the coasts of Labrador and
northern Newfoundland.
In recognition of his remarkable
achievements and self-sacrificing labors he
was knighted by King George V; received
honorary degrees from numerous univer-
sites, besides the highest honors from vari-
Gus scientific societies and other organ
izations.
He served as a major in the Harvard
Surgical Unit in France during the World
War, and in the midst of his busy life found
time to write some % books dealing with
adventure, health and religious matters.
The death of Sir Wilfred Grenfell
will be mourned by many throughout the
world, but by none more deeply than by
the humble fisher folk whom he served so
long and so well.
