A. last night, “The i8tory of Education in AIas*B," @ found an interested audience. “Ih consideration of the Terri- tOfy's limited resources, sparse population, and undeveloped con- dition, more money is expendad, for the education of the people inl its. borders, than agy other lo- cality, anywhere,” said Governor Parks. . # The schools, the oldest of which ‘was established on Three Saints’ Bay, Kodiak Island, about 150 rs ago,” may be divided into three chronological groups, name- 1y¢ under the Indians, before 1741; ufifer the Russians, 1741-1867; ufider the U. 8., 1867 to the pres. ent time. Among the churches taking an active part in education was the gssian Greek church, which con- dugtéd schools ‘for over 120 years. ” Education Is Factor Gav.

W SENNETT VAMP IN COMEDY, AT LIBERTY e 3 Madeline Hurlock has at last come into her own. She is fea- tured in a Mack Sennett comedy called “A Small Town Princess,” which comes to the Liberty to. night. Madeline is a favorite of Sen. nett's And rightly so, for she is one of the most beautiful girls now playing in pictures and a consummate, actress to boot. For several years she has been the vamp de luxe of the Sennett come- dles. She it Is who has caused 80 many screen heroes to leave their happy homes just for -her and the resulting excitement has \been the theme of many of the! funniest comedies Sennett has pro- duced. In particular has Madeline play- ed opposite Ben Turpin, And now Madeline has been chosen as the fairest of the fair by the Holliwobd conncisseur of pulchritude. He considers her the ideal type of feminine lovali- ness. Her face and figure are per- fectly proportioned. She com. bines the sweetness of youth with dignity and grace. Billy Bevan is also featured in this comedy and he proves him. self well worthy of distinction. Others in the cast include David Manor, Nan Carr and Bud Ross.

There is a practical cer- lainty that a gubernatorial candi- date. will appear in 1929 on an “anti short-ballot” platform. “short ballot” was the name given ta three constitutional amendments sponsored by Gov.: Byrd, The| amendments were adopted last June by very close margins. | Henry W.

Mr. An- derson, a well-known Richmond lawyer, took an active part in turn. ing Virginia into the Republican column. It is being further contended in Virginia that the three.
