BRANTONS MOVE TO LOBERG FARM

The Ivan Brantons and daugh- ter Rosann moved last week from their home in the Experi ment Station housing area to their new 60-acre farm recently purchased from the Lauritz Lo- bergs.
 For the present year MT. Bran ton, who is agrcultural engineer at the Experiment Station, ex- poets to operate as a "gentleman farmer" having rented out most of the land. He and Mrs. Branton will busy themselves with plan ned renovations for the house that commands a magnificent view on the heights overlooking the meandering Matanuska.
 The Lobergs retained an 0O- acre tract that adjoins the farm sold to the Brantons. The new Branton farm was originally homesteaded by Hugh McCough- ey. In 1885 the property was ac- uuired by the ARRC for the Ma- tanuska Valley Colony project and was drawn by the Clifford Lemon family. When the Lemons left the Valley in March l937 the Lobergs purchased the tract; the major part of the clearing was done during the l5year peri or when Loberg farmed 1t.

 Homemaker's Council meets Monday. April ?. lo.3o AM. in Extension Graft Room. Your help is needed 10 plan for future events.
 SEWING MACHINE SLUMP
 If your sewing machine Is act ing balky this time of year after its winter usage. or fl has just been put in use for your Easter and spring sewing; maybe all II needs is cleaning and oiling Dust. grit lint. and thread easily col feet on the working parts of the machine and eventually may form a packed mass. soaked and gummed with oil. This can make the machine run hard and some times cause 1t to jam or lock. Lack of oil also can cause trouble.
 The newer sewing machines, like other pieces of equipment, come with the manufacturer di- rections for their care. But if you are the owner of an older ma chine, you perhaps have lost such directions. Many a seamstresS has expressed the need for a doctor book for her machine, which de- scribeS symptoms and ailments, and suggests home comedies or informs her when Q repair man is needed.
 The Extension Service has a free bulletin entitled Sewing Machines. Cleaning and Adjust ing" It tells how to clean, oil, and adjust parts by words and pictures. In the back of the bull letin is a handy chart which lists various machine troubles and tells you what to do about them. If you have an ailing machine, come in, we may be able to help you.
 Curtain Clues
 With longer days and vertical sun light approaching, perhaps you have become conscious that a room needs new window cur tains or draperies. The Extension Service has two helpful bulletins which may help you in planning and selecting new curtains and then actually making them. These free bulletins are Window Cur tains-Planning and Selecting" and How to Make Draperies."

courage, in these words:
 with a great show of personal courage and stamina in the face of extremely adverse weather conditions, the native people of Gambell located the lost person nel and saved them from certain death by freezing.
 Adds Postscript
 ''It is with pleasure that I bring this matter to your attention and I request that the native people of Gambell be informed of our appreciation of their untiring eff forts and cooperation"
 In postscript to that state ment, Wade said that "The Gam bell villagers probably did noth- ing spectacular in the eyes of their fellows. Their feat was just an example of the fortitude and resourcefulness most Alaskan na- tives are capable of when the thin wall of civilization is preached by nature and their tall ents are called upon"

 Proof if this is to be found in Anchorage. Credit for it is due the National Arts Foundation of New York and it's director, Carl ton Smith.
 Smith said here Friday that pay dirt was hit in wholesale fashion in Alaska as the foundation ac- quainted that territory with it's drive to name streets, parks, clubs, schools and other buildings after famous creative artists, living and dead.
 In Anchorage, Smith said, they found a real gold mine-12 streets had the same name. Local author ities explained they had exhaus- ted their source of names-from presidents, mountains, rivers - and needed more.
 They offered to take 120 artists names for greater Anchorage.

Heroism is where you find it.

HeroiSm Is where you find 1t.
 Three grateful American air. men found it in a blinding snow storm on a mountainside-among the natives of the St. Lawrence Island village of Gambell.
 The story of the Gambell vil- lagers' heroism was revealed re- gently in a letter sent to Hugh Wade, area director of the Alaska Native Service, by Brig. Gen. Donald B. Smith, commander of the 5001st Composite Wing, Ladd Air Force Base.
 Lost in Storm
 According to the letter, the story began last January 19 when three Air Force men stationed at Gambell became lost in a blind ing snow storm while climbing a mountain to their post.
 Sub zero temperatures an d winds that reached velocities up to 93 miles an hour enveloped the three, the letter continues. When their predicament became known, a call was sent out to the natives for help in locating the lost air. men.
 Searching Parties
 Twenty native men reported to the Air Force camp immediately. They were organized into search ing parties and then disappeared into the raging storm to search for the three men.
 General Smiths letter pays trib- ute to these men, who met their 'trial by fire" with unassuming
