MEA Gets S1 ,040, ,000 Loan for New Building, Extended Services

According to a wire received from Alaska Delegate E. L. Bart lett yesterday an REA loan of SLO40,000 for increased power and a new building has been ap- proved.
 This was welcome news to MEA President Mrs. Justine Parks and C. A. Brewer, the new MEA manager. Approval for this loan gives the go-ahead signal for the S100,000 new MEA building. with warehouse and office facili- ties, across from the Fairgrounds. Approximately half of the S1,- O4O,OOO will be spent on the ex- tension of MEA lines to give pow CT service to 285 applicants al- ready on the waiting list. System tWide improvements in control of outages due to line faults and making three-phase power avail able in areas where it is econom- ically feasible will necessitate large share of the remainder of the loan, Brewer stated.
 5000 KW's in 's4
 Good news to present and po- tential MEA power consumers is tentative contract between MEA and the Bureau of Recla- nation under which MEA is slat- ed to receive, when the Eklutna project is completed, a 20 percent increase in KWs of power over the previously planned allowance of 4,000 Kws. MEA consumers may thus look forward to the relative abundance of 5000 KWs with the completion of the Eklut- na project in 1854. MEA is now receiving about 1,097 KWs from the present Eklutna power plant.
 Mrs. Parks and Brewer pointed out that the Matanuska Electric Assn. and the Chugach Electric Assn. will have the priority on electric power from the new Eklutna power facilities in ac- cordance with the contract pro- posed by the Bureau of Reclama- ton, providing electric service available to the ultimate con- sumers at the lowest possible

District Decides II
 Wanis a School; Bond Issue Approved by 86oo

Voters of the Palmer Indepen- dent School District revealed on Tuesday that they do very defin- ltely want a new high school m Palmer when an 86 percent ma Jority of them approved authority for issuing $1,00O,000 in bonds, if needed, to pay for the districts one-half share of the new schools construction costs.
 Qualified electors numbering 197 voted in the election; ITO voted yes for school indebted ness, and 27 voted no. The law re- quires a 65 percent majority for approval of a bond issue. The dis trict 'fors" far exceeded this per- centage requirement. The total voting was just a few less than voted in the sales tax election, but was far less than 842 names on the tax roll.

CHARM
BY Lou SWarz

"A soul with charm is soul
With beauty Beauty is the
outward expression of the inner
SOUL"
what is more charming than
to know that Divine Guidance.
God, or even as some would say.
Fate takes a hand at the right
time and makes every adjustment
just as it should be made: and
the fine thing about it is that per-
sons who realize that have the
inner satisfaction of being happy,
contented, at ease, and always
ready to help others That IS
charm; or it is the kind of charm
for which we strive when we
know that pereptual charm means
perpetual beauty.
Whatever, however, whenever,
just let it be that we have first
developed that inner charm so
that we will be able to hold as
well as radiate charm to all
around us in such a way that we
will stamp a perpetual memory
Of charm in the minds of those
interested in what we do. No mat
ter what our job is, do it in such
way that folk will know that
we have first developed from with
in. That which is done from within
cannot fail without.
1t is just as one would say: eff
you are going to be dishwasher,
be good one; put your whole
soul and body into whatever the
work is" There is a lot in that
saying, because we must work
from within so as to give the best
we have and in return get the
best from what we do. Watch
those who get promotions and keep
them. They are the ones Who
work with their "soul and body =
: body including the mind" as
the epression goes.
Now that you have just read a
little about wanting to or needing
to develop that Inner Charm
first, then go after it and keep it.
Remember: Charm begins at
any age, and never ends"

For the NNPA News Service


DR.. c. C. Adams, correspondent
secretary of the Foreign Mission
Board of the National Baptist
Convention of America, Inc, an
nounced recently the completion
of an agreement with the Liberian
government for the joint opera
ton of the Baptist Hospital IN
Monrovia.
The Carrie V. Dyer Memorial
Hospital and Nurse Training
School was built by the Foreign
Mission Board in Monrovia mere
than thirty years ago. 1t has func-
toned with increasing efficiency
and effectiveness across the years.
So important has been the work
of this institution to the people
of the Republic of Liberia that the
National legislative Assembly has
voted financial assistance to the
haspital in recent years.
There has been an increased in
terest and assistance given to the
health and sanitation program of
Liberia by the government of the
United States through the United
, States Health Mission to Liberia
Pand more recent through the Point
Four program of President Harry
S. Truman. This new program calls
for the expansion and close CO.
operation of all the agencies oper-
ating in the field of public health.
President William V. S. Tubman
of Liberia informed the Rev. John
B. Falconer, supervisor of West
African Work of the Board of
Forein Missions, that it was the
desire of his government to join
the Foreign Mission Board in the
operation of the Carrie V. Dyer
Hospital.
Subsequently, full agreement was
reached and the papers duly drawn
up and signed and ratified by the
Liberian government and the For
eign Mission Board, upon the re-
commentator of Dr. Adams.
Under the terms of the agree
ment, the Foreign Mission Board
of the National Baptist Conven-
ton maintains it's integrity of
control and reserves it's interest
and joint responsibility through its
local board of managers, of which
the Hon. w. r. Lathest has served
as chairman with great distinction.
