FAC-SIMILE OF RARE
 BOOK k IN MUSEUM

Recently received by the Terri torial Museum was facsimile edi- ton of the first book printed in the Philippine Islands, the Doc trina Christiana." It was printed in Manila in 1893.
 The look has very interesting history. There was evidence of it's existence for 400 years be- fore it was actually found. The subject of a worldwide search, it was finally discovered recently in France. It is thought that the copy that was discovered was the one sent to Philip II of Spain.
 The book was bought by Lesing Rosenwald, who presented it to the Library of Congress. The book is printed in both Tegalog, the native Philippine language, and Spanish.

LANA TURNER I5
 STAR IN FEATURE
 AT 10TH CENTURY

One of the years outstanding casts in one of the years out standing motion pictures!
 That's the only way one can describe Marriage Is A Private Affair" in which Lana Turner makes a welcome return to the screen at the 2oth Century Thea tre Sunday after a considerable absence. Metro-Goldwyn Mayer has spared nothing to make this gripping story one of its outstand- ing productions and entrusted it's guidance to two of Hollywood's top men, Director Robert z. Leonard and Producer Pandro s. German.
 The star. more glamorous than ever and more completely superb dramatic actress than ever before, receives excellent support from the hand-picked cast which reads like a Hollywood Blue Book. Lana has two leading men, James Craig and John Kodiak, and they deserve star billing themselves for their portrayals of admirer and husband and Lana, respectively, in the film.
 In addition, such gifted per- formers as Frances Clifford, Hugh Marlowe, Natalie Schafer, Keenan Wynn and Herbert Rudley appear to great advantage in a story which fits each and every player like the proverbial glove,
 Lana plays irresponsible Theo West, whose road to love and happiness is tortuous indeed. She marries It. Tom West tHodiak) after a romance which begins at an Officers Canteen. Her friv- olous ways make it doubtful whether the marriage will last, but she settles down after blessed event. She tries to model her life after that of two of her closest friend, but her faith in marriage crGnbles when she learns anat the girl is carrying on with another man. Theo encourages the attentions of another officer, Capt. Miles Lancing (Craig) and be- comes confused as to just where her heart belongs. How the prob lem is solved makes for a thrill ing and absorbing human story.

MUSIC, DRAMA IN TECHNIC0L0R K
 BILL AT CAPITOL

According to advance reports, Republic Pictures has one of the most distinguished and beautiful motion pictures ever filmed in I've Always Loved You" the Techni- color musical drama which is com- ing to the Capitol Theatre Sun day for a run of four days. Pro- duced and directed by Frank Bor- gage and handsomely mounted by virtue of the spectacular sets de- signed by Ernst Fegte, I've All ways Loved You" is an intensely dramatic story into which is wov- en some of the finest music ever written by Rachmaninoff, Chopin, Beethoven, Mendelssohn, Wagner, Mozart and Bach.
 1 This intervening of the musical compositions is one of the unusual and outstanding features of the picture. The music does not halt the dramatic theme; it is an in tegral part Of it. Emotional scenes are intensified by the brilliant pi- anistic performances that take place through many of the story's climactic sequences.
 ! These musical sequences are ar tistically authentic, for the music heard was especially recorded by the great Arthur Rubinstein and synchronized with the action or the screen. As the central tlg- ures of the plot are famous con- cert pianist and lovely girl who is his gifted protege, MT. Rubin stein's playing is heard throughout the film.
 By a happy coincidence, Gather inc Mcleod, who plays the role of the firl, is a musician of con- siderable talent herself. Adept III the playing of difficult piano con- certos, she was able to give a per feet lingering" performance of the music played by Rubenstein.

Sports
Eagles Win
SOftball Title

The Eagles softball nine came out
on top of the local VFW sponsored
city recreation softball league by a
close margin of one game over the
second place Palace entry and the
Board of Trade. The Eagles, who
lead the way from the start finish
ed with a record of seven wins and
five losses to cop the title with a
.5S3 average, while two teams tied
for second, with six wins and six
loses. Wold's came in with five
wins and seven loses.
The race was close going to the
last game of the season before the
championship was decided, and in
general was considered a success
although lacked the punch the league
carried a year ago. Some of the
last games were defaulted that may
have changed the picture had they
been played, but interest in the
Farmers Union baseball team, and
the beginning of football at the
high school accounted for that.
Congratulations must go out to
Pud Paronto for the work he put
into the league and almost single
handedly kept it f%unctioning as
league manager. The first place
trophy will be presented to the
Eagles team next week by the Vet
al of Foreign Wars.

National Anthem Is
Soma of High Courage

Francis Scott Key was a prisoner
on board a British frigate in Balti-
more harbor during the terrifying
night of September IL, 1914.
1t was the War of 1872. British
troops, at the height of their vic
tories, had burned the Capitol, White
House, Treasury and other public
buildings in Washington. Now they
were Smelling Fort McHenry.
Crouching on the deck of the ship

Who Was Paul Bunyan?

Paul Bunyan is one of the few
NEUROLOGICAL figures of American
folklore. He was created in the
tall tales told around the camp fires
in the early logging camps. Many
books have been written about his
exploits in which he is depicted as
a giant lumberjack capable of per-
forming herculean feats. For in
stance, it is said that he is capable
of cutting down a whole forest with
one swing of his mighty AK. In
company with Babe, his great blue
OK, he roams the forests, perform
ing prodigious deeds and winning
for himself an unchallenged position
as a hero of American legend. In
the pioneer days when the country
was young it needed space to grow
and wood with which to build, and
Paul was simply a fabulous wood
chopper.

explosion destroyed the top part of
the mountain and reduced its height
by some 1000 feet. The volcano was

pillows Lose Charm

The mellow charm of age adds
greatly to the value of al old chair,
table or bedstead. Aged pillows,
however, are far from valuable.
Their crushed and lifeless feathers
no longer can support the head and
neck muscles and the full benefit is
not gained from hours spent in
sleep. Antique pillows should be re-
nlaced with fresh new buoyant pill

Origin of Woman

The word woman may have been
derived from "womb = man" or
"wombed-man," on the idea that
woman was merely a modified form
of man. Other authorities believe it
was derived from the ancient ''wif-
man." meaning the ''wife of a
man."

Soapy Smiths Gang, the family moved to that lively town in 1898 Here Lou attended school In 1904 after a tragic hunting accident that took the life of his father Mrs. Joy returned with her fam fly to Clinton, New York, where Lou finished school in 1909
 For three years he worked or the City Syracuse Rapid Transit Railroad in charge of their cal barns at Little Falls. N Y. About 1912 he changed jobs and went to Auburn in the employment of the International Harvester Com pany. While there he met a di- minutive brunette, Miss Gladys Clark, whom he married on May 26, 1914
 That same year the young couple started for Alaska with MT. Joys mother, a brother and two sisters. They entered via Skag- way, took the train to Whitehorse, and arrived in Fairbanks in August by way of Dawson and Tanana on the Yukon River. Their river trip took one month. Starting a ranch on the outskirts of town, after seven years they proved up cn it and the Joy Homestead" was familiar landmark and one of the earliest successful farms in the Panama Valley On this land were raised four children, William, Ruth, Lois and Robert.
 Tn 1921 Lou went to work for the Northern Commercial Com pany in charge of utility distri- button where he has since re- mained. Having sold his original homestead, as hobby he has taken up another on the Badger Roe.d a few miles from Fair banks. Comprised of 156 acres of farming land, MT. Joy manages to keep very busy in his spare time, experimenting with crops ana raising llVeStOcK.
 Several years back, Lou ran for the Senate on the Republican ticket but was defeated. In 1946 he figured the time was about right for a Party change and he filed again. This time his hunch was correct and he was elected as Representative 10 this Eigh- teenth Legislature. Representative Joy is very much interested in fostering agriculture in the Terri tory, in the construction of new highways, and in progress of Alaskan schools He has served on the Fairbanks School Board for 16 years.
