To Live in Alaska
 They Make Their Living Outside by Selling II

In their familiar maroon Chevy suburban. Fred and Sara Maehe- tang are driving down the Alas kan Highway this week for their annual tour of lectures in the States and for business sessions with their publishers in New York.
 This trip on the highway is the eighth such trip for the couple. They plan to return to the Valley this time shortly after the first of March-so they won't have to miss all of the winter. Fred eX- plained that they don't like to be away from their home here any longer than possible.
 We have to make our living in the States, he pointed out, "so we can live in Alaska.
 To most people, the Machetanz' methods of making a living in- cluding the annual trip Outside seem little short of sheer glamor, but there's a business side to it too. Fred's paintings and photog- raphy and Sara's stories are all products of life in Alaska. That part of the job is fun for both of them. In order to earn living by them, the products have to be marketed. That's where business and the trip to the States comes in.
 This year, Fred will go on tour with lecture movie entitled "Shangri-la Alaska, a composite of travel along the Alaskan High way, life in the Matanuska Val ley, and the Lake George break up. The highway sequence IS made up of movie shots taken on their previous trips.
 The lecture movie will be as- sembled during a brief visit with Fred's parents in Ohio. A secre-

with Governor Dewey. he went out to visit the Machetanz cabin where the inside walls are lined with the artists oils, water colors, pen and ink drawings, pastels and Autographs Later at the Mata- nuska Hotel. Gruening compared Machetanz' work with that of the late Sidney Lawrence, giving his opinion that some of his paint ings surpass those of the dead artist, whose name is almost sy- anonymous with Alaskan art
 In Palmer, the Treasure Chest has been chosen as the outlet for Machetanz art and books. Before he left town last weekend, Fred brought a batch of prints to Mrs. Rose Kirsch fer sale. Some of the paintings were taken to another outlet in Anchorage.

PUBLIC INVITED 70 UNUSUAL LECTURE BY DR, MILO FRITZ

The public is invited by the Matanuska Valley Health Coun- cil to attend a special meeting next Wednesday, September 26, at 2 pm. in the Coop club room to hear pr. Milo A. Fritz, Terri torial Department of Health con- sultant, lecture on the subject of corneal ulcers.
 According to Dr. Fritz, who is a recognized authority on the subject, the second most serious public health problem among AL askan Eskimos and Indians, next to pulmonary tuberculosis, is corneal scarring. Although this scarring of the cornea is frequent ly mistaken by laymen and many qualified medical men for "cata- racts", it is actually caused by take deep breath, folks--phylyc- tenular keratoconjunctivitis.
 Public Health Nurse Marjorie Myren states that there are a large number of these cases in the Valley among Native children and adults alike. Some of them are nearly blind because treat ment has been too long delayed. Infection in most cases is an al- Iergic manifestation of tubercu- losiS.
 In an article appearing in the American Journal of Ophthal- mology for February, 1851, pr. Fritz reported on a clinical study of more than 400 Natives in the Boring Sea-Arctic Slope region of Alaska. In 127 cases, corneal opacities were observed.
 Treatment of this condition, notably with cortisone, will be the subject of Dr. Fritz talk, which will be illustrated with slides. It is also expected that ne will devote part of his lecture to the very interesting subject of corneal transplants. Several local persons have provided already for future transplants by willing their good corneas so that some person in need may see.
 The Health Council is hoping for a big turnout to hear Dr. Fritz, who is making a special trip to Palmer to give the lecture. For those interested in the re- markable work being done under the public health program in Al aska, this lecture promises to be most enlightening.

the board said the expenditure
investigation was asked because
little had been done since l947
but plenty of money had been
paid out in salaries"
He said the district might prove
to be Unnecessary because many
of its actions are carried on by
other agencies including the Ar
my engineers. The Mill Creek
dam has not been approved as a
flood control measure by the fed
eral government, he concluded.
Conservancy district officials
claim the Mill Creek project
would eliminate forever a recur-
renee of the 1913 flood of the
Scioto River
The district was organized in
1884 as part of the Conservancy
Act of Ohio. 1t was organized to
prevent floods and conserving
flood waters for beneficial use
and for regulating stream chan
nels by changing, widening and
deepening.

ed in the area. They are Marion,

be a $4,000, 0,O00-g gallon capacity
dam. However, it would remain
nearly empty at all times to re-
ceive Mill Creeks peak water lev
ell in flood seasons. A total of 169
farms in Delaware and Union
counties would be covered. Unof-
ficial estimates on the cost of the
project have run from $10,500,-

March OF Dimes
Campaign Opens

The annual March of Dimes
drive is underway in Union county
to raise funds to provide medical
aid and braces and other facili-
ties for persons in the county ill
with polio.
AT the present time there are
seven from this county being
treated for polio in Children's hos
pital at Columbus for the disease,
according to Mrs. Aida Davis,
chairman of the county chapter.
The expense of providing the
necessary treatment for polio vic
TINS is staggering. Braces cost 5000
each, and iron lung facilities av-
erage $32 per patient per day.
Therapy treatments average from
$3.50 each to SIS per day and each
day a patient is housed in the hos
pital, it costs SIS.
Last year was a bad polio
year" said Mrs. Davis, and we
used up most of our resources.
Everyone will have to work harder
and contribute more for this years

OF wear apparel, he said.
Ready to wear clothes are 100
percent better now than they used
to be. Today's ready to wear is
better than the old-time tailored
to fit used to be. In the old days
they had the sweat shop system,
and that system didn't always turn
out the good merchandise, like
today's sanitary and inspected fac
tories can do"
The interview being over, he
stood up to shake hands.
"Come back again." he said.
Nodding pleasantly, he stood in
the doorway of his clothing store,

Mr.. Otte'G business pursuits were
interrupted in 1898 for over a
year. During that period he served
with the American forces in Puer-
to Rico, during the Spanish-Am-

He was married in 1904 to Mary

in business practices. "In the old
days." he said, eve had the two

no one used to just walk into a
store, and pay the price marked
on the ticket"
Folks always used to haggle
about the price and try to get the
merchants to come down a little,
before they would buy. A merch-
ant in those days had to be a COM

Money was more scarce then.

I remember that suits used to sell
as low as $3.50. Those $3.50 suits
were made of cotton, but still a
pretty good buy. Then in the early
nineties, we had a suit that we
bought for 1896 and resold for SIS.

Basketball leadership in the
Mid-Six League will be at stake
Friday evening when London high
school comes here to meet Marys-

schools are undefeated in League
play to date, with three victories
apiece.
According to advance informa-

bounds. In short, the Red Raiders
are plenty tough.
The London team is built around
Tom Bopely, 6 ft. 6 in. pivot man
who uses his height to excellent
advantage. A rough adversary last
year, Bopely is a top-notch per-
former this year and the Raiders
opponents have found him more
than they wanted to handle.
He not only controls both bank
boards with his height, he has de-
veloped a deadly hook shot from
the pivot position which racks up
plenty of points for the Raiders.
Besides Bopely, London has a
