The oldest pioneer on Gastineau Channel is today quietly observing his A89th birthday, hale and hearty, at his home in Douglas.
 John McWilliams (above) is the pioneer and he believes Alaska, this section especially, is Utopia.
 McWilliams was born in Hunts town, Ohio, about 160 miles north of Cincinnati, on August 4, 1852.
 In his early days he came west and was employed in the mines and also lumber industry in Michigan.
 McWilliams came north in the early days, landing at Treadweil, where he was employed for some time. Later he was in charge of the sawmill at Sheep Creek for two years when Charles Young and E. H. Bogues were operating the plant. Subsequently, McWilliams spent most of his time prospecting in various sections in Southeast AL aska. a S. S.9ps
 McWilliams has sister, the baby of the family, living at present in Ohio. She is 81 years of age
 McWilliams, who came north on the last trip made by the old Ida no, one of the first vessels plying the Southeast Alaska route, who has lived in Douglas 55 years, is being congratulated today on his good health by his many friends.
 Specially honoring him, Miss Myrtle Berry will give dinner party at McWilliams' home with the following additional guests: Mrs. Otto Pfeiffer and son Jun for, Arthur Berry and Sante De- gan.

Jerry Chapman Spent S2.42
 For 'Boughten' Paris While
 Building Winning Soap Box

Juneau speed driver anf -aiaska champ of the Soap Box Derby Jerry Chapman today told in dol lars and cents and in actual parts Inst what it takes to build a win ming car. did not reveal just what made his particular combination of parts and ingenuity the fastest car in his class.
 Minus S6 for official wheels and the cost of the steering assembly. of which the latter is not included in the total output for the car, young Chapman spent exactly S2.4- for ports, lumber, nails, non braces and carriage bolts. Seven cents spent for shingle nails brought out the odd cents in tine cost.
 But for the main part, Jerry ad- mitted candidly, much of the con struction material for the midget gravity auto was 'high-graded" from the standard oil Company, sponsors for the youthful driver in the Juneau Derby An old wind sock from the Standard Ql dock was turned into covering for the car and Standard Blue paint covered the covering. Frame werk and brac- ing came from torn down fivs-gal- lon gasoline eases as did nails sal vaeed from the wooden parts. Then a vacant lot donated laths and two folid wooden blocks used in the two nds of the vehicle Steering cable came from the Alaska Coastal Air lines at no cost to the young driver.
 And, says Dewey Baker, Standard Oil employee and adviser during the careful construction of the car, "The neighbors donated advice by the ton, but that was the only thing refused"
 Young Chapman goes south on the Princess Louise tomorrow morn ing at g o'clock and Juneau plans to give him big send-off

On May 5, 1914, police rushed into mansion in Brooklyn, N. Y., to find 80-year-old Brig. Gen Hi- ram Duryea, a Civil war veteran, dead on the floor. The generals son, Chester Duryea, was standing over the body with pistol in each hand. He was quoted as saying, Angels told me to do it."' Indicted for murder, he was ad- judged insane before he could be brought to trial. Last year Dur yea was ruled sane and sent to a private institution under bond to await preparation of the case against him. But today the evil dence is gone and the witnesses either dead of disappeared. So the indictment has been dismissed and Duryea, now 70, begins life
 anew.

BACK IN 90

Way back in 1896, when the
Spanish American War was yet to
come, the bitter Bryan-McKinley
free silver" campaign was in full
cry and no one had heard of Blitz-
kriegs, country banker, George
Rae. wrote a book. Some of the
maxims for banking he laid down
then are as sound and as timely
now as on the day they were writ
ten.
For instance. he said: Nothing
more retards the progress of a
bank than unpopularity. The
bank which has the good will and
the good word of everyone is sure
to make progress. But to insure
this kind of popularity, it must be
incapable of harsh dealing. II must
not be over-grasping or too insis-
tent. in every case, upon its exact
legal right In banking, as in other
things, there is law within the
law: And that bank will do best
for itself and its shareholders
which at times can be generous,
as well as just"
Forty-five years ago the "over-
grasping" banker was common.
Today he is more rare.' The ma
jorit yof bankers have learned the
truth of what George Rae said.
They. have learned that they must
give as well as take; they know
that the welfare of the bank can
not be separated from the welfare
of the community and the coun-
try. They know that. service is
policy-not just a word. Banking
has progressed accordingly and
the country has progressed with it.

and other items, about 125 works in
all, by 35 of the department per-
sonnel. Seven or eight of them are
employed in positions remote from
Washington in Maine, Florida,
Alaska, the Far West. The commit
tee responsible for the exhibition
was headed by Edward Bruce, chief
of the Section of Fine Arts, aided
by Ugo Carusi, executive assistant
to the Attorney General, and several
others. The show will remain on
view until January 13 and is open
to the public.
A large majority of the works
shown are amateur efforts; less than
one-third of the exhibitors are of
professional caliber. A dominant
impression one gets from the exhibi-
ton is how heavily training and ex-
perience count in art, as in other
professions. In a few rapid gIances
around the Justice Department
library the habitual visitor to exhibit
tions will be drawn to certain works,
and will discover, upon looking them
up in the catalogue, that they were
executed by professional or, at
least, trained-artistS.
There is no profession the prac-
titioners of which have considerable
amateur competition except the
arts. including music, poetry and
drama, as we'll as painting, print
making, etc. Amateur lawyers are
unheard of; amateur ministers have
no standing. Physicians have no
competition from the lay public, un-
less one counts the numerous head

friends, or such services as removing
