BIG PARADE

IiG PARADE
It was our great good for
tune to be present at the big
gest blowout ever seen in the
mammoth granite tower that
is New York 1t was a crafty
ing and unforgettable exper-
ience to be one of the seven
and-a-half million to witness
General MacArthur's tri-
umphant procession through
the canyons of that great
city-filled with the roar of
millions of voices. Like Mac
Arthur, /, too, shall never
forget.
AS fate would have it, l
was able to watch the big
parade from the steps of st.
Patrick's Cathedral There
may have been better vantage
points somewhere else but /
doubt it. My good fortune
came as the result of aiding
three little old ladies in their
effort to cross the avenue.
One, whimpering and dabbing
at her eyes with a bit of old
lace, explained that she and
her companions simply HAD
to get TO the other side. The
policeman had said that no
one could cross. Spying a
lieutenant, / went up to him
and explained about the three
little old ladies and he, a
very sympathetic man, made
ii possible for them to cross
the officer took two of
them tone on each arm) and
/ followed with the third. Up
on reaching the other side of
the avenue quickly detach-
ed myself from the little saf-
ari and found myself in the
front row of the thousands
crowding the steps of St.
Pats. To the left of me stood
Cardinal Spellman in nlagnifi-
cent red robes and with his
little cap perched on his
head. Around the Cardinal
stood about thirty Bishops,
resplendent in purple. Quite
sight in itself Amid swir-
ing ticker-tape there came a
whine of sirens. Macarthur
was approaching.
AS the cars carrying the of
ficial party came to a halt
right in front of me lor rath-
er right in front of. the Car
dinal) the Cardinal came
down off the steps and out to
the Generals car. The Gen.
eral got down from his car
and the two great men shook
hands warmly. The masses
cheered and the Bishops
smiled and 1t was fine to see.
Young Arthur Macarthur
looked just like any little kid
should look. Even to his duck
billed cap, he was every inch
an American boy although he
had never seen the U. S. until
a few days before. Mrs. Mac
Arthur, smiling and pert,
was proud mother and wife
although the slightest bit over
whelmed, I'm sure. All in all,
even to the pigeons zigzagging
in terror through the snowy
shower of confetti, the whole
business was grand beyond
compare and / came away
with the feeling that Mac
Arthur would not, like the
old soldier, simply fade away.
Hats off! The Flag is pass

JuAN-,,P. MILLER OFFERS MUSICAL
 TRAINING HERE

In most of the states, music is considered a major" subject, of equal importance with mathemat- ics, language, science, history or any other school subject, Juan P. Miller said this week in announc- ing musical training that he is now offering.
 Even before World War I some high schools gave four full units of credit for piano, voice or violin, besides harmony, band, orches- tra, chorus, sight singing, appre- citation and several other musical subjects, Mir. Miller said.
 But in Alaska. no high school graduate can enter a conservatory or college of music because only one unit of credit can be earned in four years of high school" Mir. Miller stated. He added that several units may be earned through his system, Community Music, and that if they are not accepted in other schools, all tui- ton money will be refunded"
 Music ranks third or fourth among the industries, MT. Miller pointed out, in the volume of sales and the amount of capital invested. It also ranks third or fourth among the professions and skilled trades in the number of people gainfully employed. But it always ranks first among hob

Pure Seed Assoeiotion Calls Second Meeting For TuesdaY Afternoon

The second meeting of the Alaska Pure Seed Growers As sociation will be held Tuesday, February 13, Parker Lester, ag- ricultural agent, announced this week. The meeting will be at Ills pm. in the Coop clubroom (old library).
 At the first meeting held Jan .uary IS, all were of the opinion that the Valley should avail them selves with the opportunity that existed in producing their own local seed and not depend on shipped-in varieties" MT. Lester said in making the announcement.
 Tt is possible and quite prob able that this organization will have seed other than Golden Rain oats and Edda barley to offer for distribution another year." MT. Lester added. He also pointed out that "all indications are that the certification of potato seed stock will be handled through the aus pices of the Alaska Pure Seed Growers Association this year. !" All growers interested in the cer- tification of potato seed, cereals, and other crops such as forage or even vegetable seed should know what the organization is attempt ing to do, MT. Lester urged.
 Irving Newville was appointed temporary chairman of the asso- citation at the January meeting. MT. Newville will preside at the meeting Tuesday, which he called this week.

bies and wholesome recreation, first among the things that make people popular with others and first among the activities that make one enjoy ones own com pany when alone.
 Of even greater importance is the fact that music keeps children in school until they finish and keeps them Ion good behavior" as members of a group, he said.
 "1n the Community Music movement, players are ranked ac- cording to musical ability as shown by achievement and ac- cording to qualities of leadership and general helpfulness and use fulness to the community. There are no cases of juvenile delin- quency among young players whose rank and social standing depend on exemplary conduct and musical ability" MT. Miller stated.

Dorothy Dix

DEAR DOROTHY DIX: Does
age make so much difference In
marriage? I am 80, and have been
going with a man 26. He knew
my age and said it made no diff
ference to him. We have every
thing in common, and he seems
much older than I. However.
was afraid couldn't hold him
so I picked a quarrel and we
broke up. He never knew the rea-
son. I am wondering if I was too
|hasty in my decision. ROSE.
Answer: You are very foolish
to break up as you did. A frank
talk with your beau would have
convinced you that the difference
in age was unimportant to him.
Age is not a vital factor for
marital bliss. The things~ that
make up a happy marriage-loye.

don't want to turn into a nagging
wife but my patience Is running

Answer: Since doctors have
failed to give your husband the
impetus to go back to work you
might seek legal aid. Perhaps a
lawyer could convince him of his
responsibilities as a husband and
father.
Occasionally one runs across a
man who suddenly turns against
outside work but is willing to take
over all the care Of the household
and children while the wife be-
comes the breadwinner. Such a
situation, may be what you are
facing. Divorce certainly Is not
a solution for you. Your child
would be deprived Of fathers
