The birthday of former President cur on October 27, and he being such believer in the efficacy of a strong navy and the efficiency of the American Navy larly, Navy Day has also tied up name by the Naval League. Lieut. Oliver H. Briggs, munication Officer, stationed dova, in letter to The to Navy Day, offered the work of the United States Navy in Alaska: The prime. mission of the Navy is to ! peace, The many minor missions all lead to this prime mission. We Navy in Alaska have our mission, the \uml)h\h.n' and maintaining of an efficient communication service, part of that far- flung se e that keeps the Fleet mobile, furnishes navigational, hydrographic and meteorological aids to the mariner, succor to the shipwrecked and distressed, and par- ticularly in Alaska, furnishes between vessels at and ints ashore rapid inter- course The stations in Dutch Harbor stations and Hinchinbrook addition St maintains these was Roosevelt a star been with Assistant at Mile Seven, C a following regarding of .ht sea Navy has established seven radio Alaska: Si , Cordo Kodiak, and St. Paul as radio traffic Soapstone _Point and Cape as radio compass stations.

As they travel the coasts they from time to time have mes- sages they desire to forward to friends or business representatives. The work of the radio mpass stations is not so well known except to “those who go down to the sea in ships. You may have wondered at the unerring way the ship has found its way in to Cordova from St. Elias around Cape Hinchinbrook or hit the hole at Cape Spencer in stormy or foggy weather.

When one considers the high degree of sus-| or (tained accuracy that is required to win a single tournament the success of “Bobby" Jones is quite | amazing. Year after year as the Americans come | over to register supremacy over our own golfers, | |paid and unpaid, we are told by the critics that our \failure arises from our inability or disinclination [to bring t discipline into our game that make: [the American appear to many of us as much the; |slave as the master of his sport. Jones has ne»er |treated his golf Nghtly, but his successes are the | |more encouraging and popular because at the same Itime he has been equally the artist very much in' llove with his art. And Jones's skill suggests some- {thing more than a mastership acquired only by ! |great toil and study. That is why we are not too |fearful that in the new part of tutor that is sug- |gested for him Jones will produce an endless suc-|7g of his kind to maintain America’s super-| nch ral his |cession iority. | e | Registered Traplines. (Wrangell Sentinel.) Mr. Terhune's proposal to assign definite trap-| ping privileges to the trappers of Al doubtedly result in the conservation of fur animals and eliminate most of the poaching. Each trapper will be the custodian of the fur-bearers in his do- | main as long as he abides by the law. If he is ex perienced he will know how many animals he can take without depleting his breeding stock, and there will be no necessity for a mpede to see who| can strip a country before the open season. Ewrv-. one knows that this sort of thing has been going on for years. | | There will be more or confusion over the |elaims for trapping privileg in sections that are| known to be rich in fur. Precedence, if it can be established, will probably be a deciding factor. | Some consideration should be shown the pioneer residents of Alaska. Many an oldtimer who might otherwise be compelled to on the bounty of the Territory, could become self-supporting and con- | tented if he were given an opportunity to farm |the fur in his old stamping grounds without being | pestered by the go-getters from the outside.
