MISS KLASSEN WILL SPEAK AT L.W.Y. MISSION SUNDAY

Miss KlaSSen was born in the southern part of Russia and at the age of three moved with her par ents to Siberia. After the Revolu- ton, when the parents feared that their children should be compelled to join communistic organizations where their faith in God would be destroyed, they attempted to leave the. country.
 By the time the family was ready to leave, all the possibilities of leaving Siberia legally were closed. They ran across a frozen river which meant risking every ones life, but God held His pro- tecting hand over all of them.
 Miss Classen escaped with the rest of the family into China where they were compelled to live almost a year before admission was granted by the U. s. A. to come there and farm. California has been her home although she has been in the eastern states pre- pairing for the work she feels God has called her to do.
 She says that because God has done so much for her, she cannot do any less than give God her best by answering the call God extended to her. She is the mis- sionary in Golovin, and claims that she is quite sure she will be one of the sourdoughs of Alaska.

Inspection of Vindex
Mine Made Recently

Further ventilation safeguards and
other protective measures are recon-
mended for the Garrett Coal corpor-
atoms Earl No. 2 mine in a Federal
reinspection report issued today by
the Bureau of Mines. The report also
cites current and recently established
safety precautions. Near Vindex, the
mine employed SO men and averaged
$50 tons of coal daily at the time of
the August safety survey by Inspec-
tor P. M. Shay.
Proposing that more air be passed
through the last open crosscuts in
the Nos. and sections, Inspector
Shay also recommended replacement
of the brattice-cloth stopping on the
main air course at No. 7 left with a
solid and fireproof one, and recording
of the daily fan inspections.
For safeguarding men and proper
ty further, the inspector advocated
rock-dusting of specified dry areas
to within so feet of the faces, clear
ing of loose coal and rock from the
main haulageway clearance space,
frame grounding of the hand-held
electric drill in the shop, and the use
of goggles by all employees perform
ing eye-hazardous work.
The report credited the mine with
such recent safety gains as discon-
tinuance of riding on the front end Of
loaded cars, Acknowledgment
telephone service, and placing of rock
dust at strategic locations under
ground fire-fghting purposes.
Among the long established safety
measures cited by Shaw were general
ly satisfactory timbering, use of per-
MISSILE explosives in an approved
manner, charging and firing bore
holes singly, effective fire protection
underground, and use of permissible
electric cap lamps by all underground
workers.
