The radio has made it possible to communicate from additional lstanons to the east of Alaska, and we now get data from Fort Simpson in'the McKenzie Valley, from | Cambridge Bay, Coronation Gulf, 30 degrees east of Aklavik, and finally from Point Barrow, Alaska, the northernmost station of all. In forecasting the movement of approaching “outbursts of polar air” |which may affect the United States, the reports from these scattered stations, by reason of their geographic position in the extreme northern frontier, |are often of more importance than those from in- | terior points in Alaska. It may happen that places in Alaska may be enjoying comparatively mild tem- peratures while an extremely cold wave may be on {its way further east toward the northwestern States in this country. SCHOLARSHIPS. The bill introduced last week by Senator Ben- jamin of the First Division providing scholarships | for high school graduates desiring to aitend the Alaska Agricultural College and School of Mines should meet with the approval of the people of the Territory. Scholarships limited in amount but available for many are especially adapted to the requirements of the large majority of college students.

Through the im- | provement of hospitals and of medical and nursing service, the period of convalescence has been reduced materially. And certainly a greater percentage of |the sick who ordinarily would have gone on to death have been brought back to robust health. The probabilities are many that Dr. Newhall, with his great fund of practical information, made as good a record as his fellow practitioners in the populous centers. Whether he was aided by the hardy constitutions of his patients cannot be said, but at all events he did well. He will be missed in the North, NOT A ('OID WEATHER FACTORY. Alaska, contrary lo e impr.ssion prevailing widely throughout the United States proper, is not the “maker of cold waves,” as the Federal Weather Bureau of the Department of Agriculture aptly points out in a recent bulletin. Extreme cold reach- ing the States through the Dakotas, Montana and as far East as the Great Lakes has been often laid at the door of the Territory. The Weather Bureau points out that this is not LT If you want to sell anything—use a Classified. If you want to buy anything—use a Classified.

A Fowl Rhyme The rooster is a wise old hub—he lets His lady work while he tends to the crowing— I don't know how he gets away with it, But I'll say 'tis a trick that's sure worth knowing. Ho, Hum! “That medium is a fake.” “How do you know?” “She said she could arrange it so I could talk to my departed wife. If she said I could listen to her I might have believed it.” Only Adam Didn’t Recall 'Em The “good old days” old folks recall I know were not so perfect—for E'en then old folk recalled, you'll find, ‘The good old days just gone before. They Have Profited Most “Will you contribute to the fund being raised to erect a monument to the man who invented the auto- mobile?” asked the gent with a subscription paper. “No,” growled the shoe merchant, “let the undertakers erect it.” On The Receiving End Says J. Morgan Cook, in the Philadelphia Inquirer: Occasionally one attends a wedding where the father, trying to look regretful, al- most gives himself away when he gives his daughter away. It may be the regretful look isn't forced, for maybe when he is giv- ing her away, it means he is get- ting another free boarder and not losing her. Bad News No use putting away the snow shovel yet. More or Less True One of the first things a widow- |er discovers after he marries again, is that a second wife is never satis- fied with the training the first wife did. Delicatessens may not furnish as good things as mother used to make \but they save many a husband from having to learn to cook and |get the meals. The honeymoon does a flipflop out of the window when he quits getting close to her and starts get- ting close with her. An honest girl is one who comes right out and says she is going up get out of some other clothes in- stead of into them. Many a wife feels the reason her husband has turned out fairly well is because she married him early enough to counteract all the spoil- ing his mother did. * The old-fashioned woman was too busy in the kitchen to spend much time in the parlor, but you don't catch a modern one letting any old kitchen work keep her out of the beauty parlor.
