The doctor told the film actress that she was run down and needed a change.
 "A change" said she. Do you know that during the last 18 months I've had three husbands, four cars, three jewel robberies, II cooks, two divorces, and seven landlords? What other changes can you suggest?"

New School of Mines at University To Be Erected at Cost of $500,000

A half million dollar School of Mines building will be erected on the campus of the University of Alaska during the 1851 construc- ton season. This new steel and concrete building, somewhat sim liar in size and appearance at Eielson Memorial Hall, was au- thorized by the Board of Regents, at it's recent meeting.
 ''The University of Alaska has, for years, had a reputation for outstanding instruction in min ing" said Andrew Nerland, presi- dent of the Board of Regents. Therefore, we unanimously de- cided to authorize this new con- struction so that all students con- ing here for mining education would have the best facilities and plant equipment that money could buy. Strategical and industrial mining will play an ever-increas- ing role in Alaska in the years ahead. We want the University to lead the way in this field"
 The new School of Mines build ing will be constructed east of the power plant, and will be two stories and basement or three stories and basement, depending upon costs. Bids will be called ing for once, and the contract will be let in March.
 As a second major item of busi- ness, the Board of Regents author ized summer school for the 1851 season. The Board based it's ap- proval on the successful session held during the summer of 1850, and the definite need for summer instruction in Alaska. Professor William Cashen, head of the mathematics department and dean of men, who directed sum- mer school last season, will hold the same post this year.
 The board reviewed the subject of making the University of Alas

Heavy Damage Coused By Lighted Cigarette In locuI Hotel Fire

The Fire Association answered two calls last week end when a fire broke out in one of the rooms of the Matanuska Hotel and a log cabin burned to the ground.
 The fire at the hotel occurred between 1:30 and 2 am. Sunday morning when a mattress became ignited from a cigarette. Damage was estimated between $500 to $500. Efforts to throw the burn ing mattress from the building were stymied because of the rag ing winds that lashed the Valley over the week end. Bremen had to carry the mattress to the front door of the hotel before it could be successfully got out of the building.
 The one-room log cabin that burned to the ground was one oc- cupied by a son of MT. and Mrs. Louis Loberg. Furnishings, books and clothing were all lost in the flames. The only thing young Loberg managed to save from the fire, which occurred about 8:30 Saturday evening, was an accor- dion.
 I. Paul Cronin, getting ready to go Outside, was packing when his kitchen stove blew up. The house did not catch on fire but soot caused considerable damage.

President of Workers Union Here Carries on Negotiations by Wire

An increase in wages of $2 per day for workers at Jonesville was announced yesterday by H. J. Bakersfield, president of Local 1901 of the United Mine Workers of America at the Evan Jones coal mine.
 The wage increase will affect approximately 125 workers at the mine, MT. Holdersfield said. It will be effective as of February 1, he explained.
 Negotiations for the raise were carried on by wire with Harry Hill, owner of the mine, who is now at Portland, Ore. MT. Hold ersfield announced that he sent a wire to MT. Hill yesterday morning stating that the wage in crease of $2 had been accepted by the workers at Jonesville.
 The president of the local ex- plained that the negotiations were in line with a 15-month no-strike agreement recently negotiated Outside. He added that the in crease would amount to approxi- mately $23 per week for seven days work.
 John L. Lewis and representa- tives of virtually all the soft coal mines signed an agreement call ing for $1.60 daily wage increase January IS, which is also effective February 1.
 Lewis told a news conference that "the country is now free from any thought of a so-called coal crisis for an indefinite period of time" He added, however. that that did not mean a mo strike pledge"

Valley Lashed Four
 Days by Raging Winds; /; N Many Are SnoWbound

The subject of most interest here this week was the big wind which lashed the Valley for four days, reaching it's peak on Tues day when many old-timers said that it was the worst they had ever experienced here. Damage for the Valley was surprisingly small during the four-day gale with gusts reaching hurricane proportions of 95 miles per hour, according to several reports. Snow drifts were the cause of most of the delay and damage. Farmers were unable to get to Palmer with their milk, school was closed and Alaska Road Commission snow blows were reported to be snow bound.
 Telephone lines and power lines were down. Mrs. Ruth Pierson, manager of Matanuska Electric Association, said that in order to get through to make repairs to the lines, the MEA had to use George Small's weasel as the snow, blows were unable to keep the fast-drifting roads open.
 The most trouble was experi- enced by MEA on the Kings lake line with the entire e" line, as MEA calls it, out from Wasilla road to Four Corners on to Kings lake. On Wednesday the Experi- ment Station called MEA office to report that they had been out of lights since Tuesday morning, but had been unable to get through on the telephone.
 Clifton Grover, one of Co-Op's biggest milk producers whose farm is south of town, hauled his milk in by horse-drawn sleigh.
 On Tuesday, Superintendent William Zahradnicek dismissed school as only few students had been able to get to school. On Wednesday, school was again dis missed as the school busses were unable to get through the drifted roads.
 The U. ,. COmm1SS1Oner, Otflce was closed Tuesday and Wednes- day. On Tuesday, Mrs. Dorothy Saxton set out on foot in an ef- fort to get here but after being blown down several times gave up and returned to her home.
 A big plate glass window in the Hotel Coffee shop was also blown out by the wind on Tuesday. No one was injured when the big glass in the front of the shop gave way and fell to the pave ment. :::. ."...
 Old timers here affirmed this week that the Valley is Gin for two more big blows" before the winter is over.

ARE YOU AGING?
AS THE EARTH TURNS


AS the earth turns and the wears
creep ever onward, the chronology
cal age of all living matter ad-
vances. Man, as a living being,
advances in chronological age and
on that age many things depend:
retirement, pensions, insurance,
and host of others. But our gray
hair or our badness, our shortness
of breath, aches and pains, al
though attributed to old age
chronological age) are, in reality
attributable to our heritage and
our physiological age. We can
have 30-year-old heart in 60
year-old body or, vice versa, we
can have 60-year-old heart in
2O-year-old body. In other words,
even though a person has existed
for 60 years the various organs of
the body may, in their efficiency Of
function, be of various ages. We
don't wear out all at once, like the
venerable zone Hoss Shay" we
just gradually crumble away-like
stone chimney. But when enough
of the basic stone has crumbled,
down comes the whole structure
with a bang, and we go to the hos
pital or on the last ride.
There is the saying that nothing
is sure but death and taxes. But
another verify exists, as long as
we are living we will age. Aging
is the sum total of all of the mis-
takes we make in our eating hab-
Its; too much to eat or too little to
eat, and from over indulgence in
our daily existence; in work, play,
and rest. 1t is influenced by the
heat of summer and the cold of
winter, the fumes of industry and
the toxic gases from motor cars,
furnaces, and industrial wastes.
Everything we do, good, bad and
indifferent enters into our aging
prouess.
The closer we come to living
each phase of our life as near the
optimum as possible the longer
and healthier we will live. With
health comes the love for living;
with sickness comes misery. We
do not know today. exactly what
the perfect diet is, how long we
should sleep, or how fat or how
thin we should be. We know some
of the averages, and these are set
up as our present standards. Each
year science is progressing toward
being able to state what the per
feet diet, the perfect weight. ETC.,
should be. We perhaps can never
reach perfection but we do know
to get along better than
most of us do. Your doctor can
tell you what you should do, so can
books, magazines and some articles
in the newspaper. 1t would pay all
of US to take advantage of the
knowledge already available even
if it is still not complete.
