We the teachers of Tabernacle school
take this method to thank the trustees,
patrons, and our many friends, both
white ard colored, for their unstinted
support in the remodeling and beauti-
flying of our school building. We realize
that there is much work yet to be done
before our building is completed, how
ever, all surrounding conditions are so
far in advance to what they were Sept.
%, 1910, when school opened that we
feel that something should be said about
the fine way in which all concerned
have cooperated with us in our efforts
We also wish to thank Rev. Griggs,
the ex-pastor and the good members
of Tabernacle M E. Church for their
kindness in allowing us to open school
in the church.
May happiness and success ever be
yours.
To the entire student body, we wish
to thank you as a group for the fine
way in which you have conducted
yourselves.

 It is not yet too late for us to save our own country from the chaos and failures of this war but l bell ve that it is not within our power in America today to win the war for England even though we throw the entire re- sources of our Nation into the conflict.

EDITORIAL Peace Through Unpreparedness
Cincinnati Enquirer)

It was a suitable keynote which Secretary of the Navy Frank Knox struck at the commission ing of the new 35,OO0-ton super dreadnaught North Carolina, the first battlsship to be added to the United States Navy in Is years.
 q should like to call your at tention,' Secretary Knox said, to the fact that our failure to launch and commission ships of the line for the past l8 years has been due to a national instinct and aspiration for peace around the world. Far more than any other nation, the United States made sacrifices in the cause of world disarmament Is or 20 years ago. We persisted in that policy until all hopes for an es- tablishment of world peace by that method had to be abandon ed because of the action of other nations. The commissioning of this magnificent ship now is a recognition on our part that the world has not yet reached that stage in human progress where we can depend wholly upon ideals for our own protection"
 Against the spacious claims of Adolph Hitler and his Axis satel- lites that the d<mocracies fore ed war upon them is posed the fact that predominant public op- inion in all of the great democ- racies so strongly favored peace that they exposed themselves to grave peril by their attempts to secure peace by disarmament. The Washington Naval Disarma- ment Conference of 1922 was an eloquent expression of desire for a peaceful world community. In keeping with its commitments at that conference, the United Stat es destroyed naval tonnage which would be of priceless val ue today We had in operation, at the time of the World War, the greatest armament plant in his tory We disbanded it. France, which had the greatest air fleet in the world at the closs of the last war, permitted 1t to rust away and did not replace it. Eng land, too, pursued the Wil-o'- -Wisp of peace through unpreparedness for war unti it was almost too late to protect herself.
 If this awful situation has happy conclusion, the world will know better next time. It will know that disarmament is an insurance of peace when, and only when, the aggressors lack the implements of aggression.

Alaska Nurses Reminded Of National Survey

The Alaska nursss, active and inactive, are again reminded of the nationwide survey of regis tered nurses which is being con- ducted by the United States Pub lie Health Servcia as one of the national defense measures.
 Miss Magnhild Oygard, Special Agent of the United States Pub lie Health Service, Juneau, Al aska, who is directing the survey in Alaska, recently stated that a study of the returns of the ques- tionnaires received from the nurs eS indicates that the Alaska nurs es not only can help but are most willing to serve in the defsnSe program. However, she states that there are a few nurses who 'haVe still failed to complete and return the gu stionnaires to Ju- neau headquarters. To date, ap- proximately five hundred ques- tionnaires have been sent out to nurses in the Territory, and only about thres hundred and fifteen have been returned to headquar- ters. It has also been found that duplication is very apt to take place, as many states have taken names from the registry in tn -ir own state, and sent questionnair- es to nures now residing in Al aka Also, there are changes of addresses and names after mar riage. AFs nurse who r caives more than one questionnaire should return one questionable to Juneau headquarters or give it to a nurse who has not received one.
 Nurs- who have already sen. in questionnaires and who in the future may change place of ad- dress, should notify Juneau head quarters of the change. Many who returned questionnaires as- sumed that the inventory head quarters is placement bureau. This Is not true The purpose of the inventory is to secure a re- cord of available nurse power for emergency purposes. Nurses who are seeking employment may do so through the regular channels, such as nursing associa ticns and hospitals.
 The Alaska Director of the sur vey again wishes to remind all registered nurses to fill in your original state and date of regis tration, to return your completed questlonnaire immediately, to notify her of needed questionnair es and 10 remind married nurs- es 10 send for a questionnaire if in y have not received one. Our country may soon need their ser vices to replace younger nurses who leave for the Army and Navy This National Defense Nurses Survey in Alaska will only be as complete as active and nonactiVe nurses make it. The responsibility rests with the nurse and the nurse alone.
