career was sparked by a small collection of Eskimo artifacts which the College had obtained from the late Alaskan historian, Clarence L. Andrews. President Bunnell, in showing this collec- ton to Geist, remarked: Tt would be nice if we had museum and someone to do the work"
 That was seed enough for Otto. In the summer and fall of 1926 he made a complete reconnaissance of the Boring Sea Coast-St. Michael, the Cape Nome country, Wales, Big and Little Diomede, King Island, St. Lawrence, the Prlbllofs, Unalaska, villages along the Alaska Peninsula and parts of Kodiak Island. He visited many locations of hidden sites, and villages of former ages. He bought many native artifacts, and became convinced that the Eskimo coast held unlimited opportunity for study.
 The Motorship Boxer, on which Gelst was travelling, deposited him and his collection in Ketchi- kan. Otto spent the winter with his brother. In the spring, Dr. Bunnen came through Ketchikan en route to the College, and saw the artifacts Geist had gathered. We should have these for the

heavy volume of checks to b. mailed and the fact that payments are still being made on the 1948 dividend, Commander Lee Nelson of Wasilla VIEW. Post 9365, said today.
 Covering l948 through 1850, the plan called for National Service Life Insurance dividend checks to be sent first to veterans who took out their policies in January ot any year, with February poli- cles honored in February, March Tn March, etc.
 If the anniversary date of a expect his check in April or May because in most cases there will be a three or four month delav," Commander Lee Nelson pointed out.
 About six to eight million vet erans will get payments which will be substantially lower than the first dividend checks.
 "1n cases where dividends are due veterans who no longer have policy Is January the veteran can policies in force. the VA will con- tact the veterans district offices for the most current address" "
 He pointed out that after the 1850 dividend has been paid, pol tcyholders will get an annual di- Vldend so long as a yearly sur plus is declared. Veterans do not make applications for the 1850 dividend it was explained.

Pearl Harbor Day found Otto GeiSt en route to New York City
 to spend the winter working in the American Museum of Natural
 History. Not many days later saw
 MT. Geist en route back to the Territory to work for the Army Engineers.
 All Boring Sea residents will remember Major Otto Geist, who was quartermaster of the Alaska Territorial Guard during the lat ter days of World War II. Major GeiSt knew how to work with ES- kimos. During his Excavation days he had been adopted" by the Eskirnos of St. Lawrence Is- land, and given the name of Whale" This symbol is tattooed on his left arm.
 After the war, Geist returned to the University of Alaska, and his life has revolved around the dis covery and classification of bones" He is considered THE collector of fossils in the Terri tory. Although he works alone most of the time, and seemingly in a small orbit, he is known and respected wherever scientists meet throughout the world. He is member of more than a dozen organizations dedicated to the advancement of human knowl- edge.
 "The work of classification is slow and painstaking," Otto ex- plained. But out of the careful, meticulous work of many scien- tists comes a greater knowledge of life in Alaska during the earli- est times"
 At 62 years of age, Geist is zealot in the field of archaeology. As he goes about his work, in the midst of his bone pile in the east wing of the Main Building, he has little time for extra-curricular ac- tivities, After 27 years in the Ter ritory, most of which time has been devoted to archaeology and paleontology, Geist says, There is so much to learn, and time flies by so swiftly

DEATH CERTIFICATES

For some reason, some Of our To-
cal Presidents are becoming a bit
negligent in reporting deceased
members of their local lodges. If, in
the event, lodge loses a member,
let it be locally or out of town, it is
the duty of that local President to
notify the Office that he or she has
a deceased member and it will take
more than the allotted 8 days to get
the death certificate, etc, into the
office.
We had a letter from one of our
local Presidents, a few days ago,
notifying the office that he had a
member to d e in January, 1850.
This is absolutely gross negligence
on the part of this local President.
Suppose all of the local Presidents
in the Association would do as this
President has done, it would not be
very long before we would have no
Association. Presidents, when you
get to the place where you do not
have time to attend to the business
of the local lodge, as it should be
attended to, I do think that you
should notify the e in order that

Miss Gruver Renews
Efforts 10 Give AWAY
Arlington Property

Who owns the property at o22
South TWenty-second street, Ar
lington, Va?
That question arose again to-
day as Miss Margaret E. Gruver,
formerly of that address, renewed
her efforts to have the Govern
ment accept it with the provision
that "a colored person shall live
on the property rent-free as care
taker."
Miss Gruver first tried last De-
cember to give the house and land
to the Government. Her deed
was duly recorded and the prop
erty listed as belonging to the
Government.
But when she sent her deed and
key to Senator Johnston, Demo-
crat, of Colorado, it wound up in
the Government Services Admin
istration, which returned both.
The accompanying letter said
the Government had mo author
Iity" to accept the land with re-
Istrictions.
But" said Miss Gruver, I've
checked the regulations and find
that they also have no authority
to reject it,"
Miss Gruver recently returned
from Florida, where she went in
January after trying to turn her
property over to the Government.
