He said that Tunney knew more about the real Shakespeare than any man he had ever met. The champion acepted the invitaiton and made a witty and entertaining speech that captured the mem- bers of the faculty and the undergraduates, He pictured Shakespeare at a ringside when a championship title was the stake in a way that called forth laughter but disclosed uncanny ingight into the character as well as the writings of the bard of Avon.

(Alaska Weekly.) in receipt of a book on Alaska— its scenic features, geography, history and gov- ernment, from the pen of Lester D. Henderson and produced in the plant of the Daily Alaska Empire, which is, from every standpoint, a credit both to its author and to the organization respon- sible for the exceptionally high-class tyopography and general mechanical perfection of the book itself. Throughout the cne hundred and twelve pages of the book it is crowded with authentic infor- mation interestingly presented and appropriately and profusely illustrated. Nothing has been slighted, from the size and climate of the country to its system of government. In his foreword Mr. Henderson outlines his objective in the preparation and publication of the book as follows: “To the reader who will fol- low us through the succeedding pages we hope to show Alaska in its true light—as an inhabited and habitable land, rich in resources, replete with natural attractions, and abounding in opportun- ity; with homes and firesides, schools, churches, and all things necessary to a full and complete life.”" That is exactly what we have been attempting through the pages of The Alaska Weekly and our annual Alaska Year Book for some years past. During his many years of service to the Territory as Commissioner of Education, Mr. Hen- derson has visited every part of the Territory and has studied conditions with the eye of the trained observer and analyst: His book will serve to dispel some of the cloud of misunderstanding which has obscured the true Alaska. It should have a wide distribution. Steady, Jack. We are just (Chicago Journal.) Somewhere near the spot where the old-time THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, FRIDAY, AUGUST 3, 1928.
