Local listeners pronounce Judge
Leiper's address last evening ove1
the Billings radio station the best
effort of his career
He talked on behalf of the re-
election of Governor Ford and
reviewed the governors record OF
support and help to irrigation.
civilian defense, bond drives
economy in state affairs and all
around efficiency.
He also unmaSked his opponent.
Judge Left Erickson, as an incom-
petent lawyer totally untitled to be
governor of the great state of
Montana. He stated that Judge
Erickson was born in North Dakota
and went to school in Sidney
although he actually lived across
the line and when he first filed for
county attorney of Richland county
he had to withdraw because he was
not a bonafide resident long
enough.
He said that Mr.. Erickson was a
poor and inefficient lawyer in his
practice before him and that his
record on the supreme court was
similar. He took a lat day vacation
from his duties in Montana and
served on the federal railroad
mediation board at Chicago for
which he drew $4,000 and continued
to draw his full salary from Mon
tana taxpayers as a supreme court
justice. 1t may be, said Leiper, that
the law may be construed literally
that he could do this but a~ssuredly
it was not the intention of the law
to permit a man to draw two sal
aries at the same time. Our supreme
court is sufficiently busy to keep
each justice busy with Montana
business if he lives up to his oath
of office.

We're Thinking Of Them, Too!

A few weeks ago a letter from India
came to Great Northern's general
Offices. 1t was written by a technical
sergeant in the Army Air forces, on
leave from a locomotive Greman's job
in Montana.
The s%erseant's pen fairly spouted
enthusiasm, for on that day he had un-
wrapped a much-traveIed package
his 1913 Christmas box from Great
Northern. The parcel had traiIed the
sergeant about the world 10 months.
THE box sure is okay," he wrote.
n suppose all the other Great North
erners in the service got boxes like
mine. 1t sure must have been an awful
lot Of work"

point but in Air Force vernacu!aL of

 W. H. s. vs. Institute
 On Friday, January 28 there was a "double-header" game at the High school gym. The teams participating were the Wrangell grade school boys who played the Institute "Safety-Pins" and the Wrangell High team vs. the h. stitute high school. Both games were exceedingly well played and held the interest of everyone from start to finish. In the first game the "Safety-Pins" were defeated by a score of 36-11 and the High School boys took the Eagles, 32- 21. Popcorn and punch were sold by the Juniors of W. H. S. as a bit of refreshment.

 To me a good book is a good friend. once you make the ec- ouaintance of a book and under stand it, you have made a life long and cherished friend, one who will never desert you. become tickle, or spurn your ideas. When you be- come doWn-trodden, when others turn from you, you may find con solation in the pages of your fav- orite tome. When you feel joyous, the book will carry on your buoy ant feeling through its familiar pages. Whether it be the finest of literature, or a dime-nOvel, which ever your choice, if you appreciate and enjoy the book enough to glean further enjoyment from it's pages in future readings, the book will be your permanent friend
 It is my recommendation, how ever, to choose a book which has lasting value; one that has been tested by time and not found wanting. Too many of the pres ent generation are accustomed tol modern novels, magazine articles, ct cetera. and do not realize that in the classics one might find an inexhaustible store where they might find that certain book which will become their friend. Those authors, enjoyed by pre- vious generations, should come tol be appreciated by us. their des-I cendants. "Oh," you say, those books are far too deep and old fashioned for us, who are used toj racy, spine-tingling novels" Il suggest you look inside a few coV- CTS of some books of classic worth, and see for yourself how diVersi- fled are their contents. Perhaps in time you will come to realize why I make the statement that the old books are the best.
 Forest Rangers"
 Last week the student body was shown a Forest Service" film. This film has been put out to show us how we are aided by the for estry service and to show how we can take a part to aid in the pre- serVation of our forests. One great way in which people may aid in helping to preserve the forest is by stamping out fires after picnics. The great disastrous fires which occur on occasions are by mol means necessary and are to bel blamed only on our carelessness.
 The forest rangers are trained men employed by the government to guard and protect the forest. He stands on look-oct from his station located on commanding h.ll and is ready at all times to give the fire alarm to ranger headquarters. Aid is then rushed to the tthreatened point and the fire is prevented from spreading.

 Popular School Fashions
 Cheerful even in these days of war, we find the girls of w. H. s. arrayed in diversified n al sprightly assortment of styles. The classics, and simple clothes seem to be preferred with various pieces of modern or junk" jewell ry added to provide spice"
 One of the most recent fads are jumpers and pinafores, the latter a revival of the 18th century, and quite fetching even today. They may be found in a variety of pat terms, and in gay colors such as red, blue, green, and in the softer tones of brown. Quite a few of these are decorated in white, which serves as contrast.
 Due to our mild winter, many cotton dresses Ia popular wartime fashion, are in evidence. A basque style seems to be the fad, with the prints in stripes, decorated with

 far as I know, favored enactment of the legislation. It must be no- ted, however, that Dr. Gabrielson opposed the bill as written but favored it's enactment as amended in accordance with the views Of the Department of the Interior.
 Authority to Director
 One further feature is deserV- ing of comment. The bill provides for judicial review as to practical ly every act of tthe Director of the Fish and Wildlife Service, in the making of regulations or oth- erwise. and under the bill as writ ten the judgment of the court may be substituted for the judgment of the Director. The effects of this provision are almost incalculable but one feature of it is distinctly repugnant to Alaskans that fea- ture leaves the judicial review to the United States Circuit Court of Appeals for the Ninth District or to the United States Circuit Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia, courts which are about as accessible to the ordin- ary Alaska fisherman or cannery worker as the man in the moon.
 While opposing the bill, I urged upon the Committee the desirabil- ity of making the District Court for the Territory of Alaska a tri- bunal in which any judicial re- view should be considered, that court being available to all citi- zens of Alaska.
