D. Anderson,, of Stanford University, arrived in Juneau om ' |he steamer Yukon from Seward. His work has been a continuation of last vears' study of the social status and educational heeds of the Alagka Indians, by request of the Department of the Interior. Prof. Anderson, accompanied by Mrs. Anderson, left. Seattle . carly. this summer on'the steamer Vic- |toria for Dutch Harbor. There they .vmbmkod on a Coast Guard cut- |ter for the Pribilof Islands and| various settlements on Bristol Bay. | Returning via. Unimak Pass, they | visited' a number of isolated settle- ments along the Aleutians, thence to Kodiak Island and Seward. | Study Needs of Indians | “The purpose of our trip,” said |Prof. Anderson, “is to study the | social status of the Indians, and some extent what' changes are | needed in their school studies. We are attempting to answer three | questions: How do the natives ol ’the present ‘generation - compare with their parents from a stand- | point of health, economics and in- | telligence? What is likely to happen -*[to the next generation—from these . |same viewpoints? What predic- ‘non« may be made for the future }xgen:x.u ions of Alaska Indians? “Qur report wui e ready .for submission to the department next ment, th, and it will b,pub.hhed in | May.

From Angoon they will go to Sii-| ka, to make an intensive study of the puplls in the Sheldon Jackson school Tests in health, intelli gence and achievement will be car- « |tled on there. — ., gather data which will, indicate to|* | morning that two young men, qu'\"/c T e 'I'HE DAILY ALASKA F.MPIRE TUESDAY, SEI’T 8,.1931 Rain tonight and Wednesday; .

Today those principles have been vindicated, and “The House of Schilling” stands as one of the im- portant merchandising. establish- ments of the nation. And it is still owned and controlled by those same mefi who started it. When their ausiness opened on September 8, 1881, August Schilling and George “Jolkmann were partners and today hey still control the enterprise they tarted. In this modern day of mergers | 1nd combinations, many have won- dered that Schilling and Volkmann would want to hold to the business chey started. Friends of the pair haye answered every query with a ‘_luhmmg and Volkmann sell? | Never!” these friends have said. “Does & man divorce 'his wife on | their Golden Wedding Anniversary?

They were each 27 years old when they began that enterprise on Davis Street, but already they were wise in the busi- ness they had entered. Each had begn in the business several years, working for others. But they wanted their firm to be different. {Their: policy -was clear in their mfls when they started business bug. it was some time later that Al Schilling put it down in and passed it to his partner to'read.
