Dr. Smith’s text was, art Mindfull of Him, or the Son of Man that Thou visitest Him?” Contrasting the pessimism cur- rent in many quarters today, the speaker affirmed his faith in man and man’s destiny. He pointed out six things tuat the average person says daily which mark man as distinct from the rest of thej universe and constitute him a mag- nificient creation. “Everyone daily St I am, I think, I believe, T will, I hope and I ought.” From the area of these basic elements of everyman’s life Dr. Smith chal- lengingly called attention to the image of God in which human life is created and in which “we may affirm a vital faith in God and man.” b H.

Green and their son, Denny, 12, disembarked from the Denali this morning after a transcontinental tour in their new and saw snow for the first time in six weeks! Green, Juneau agent for the Alaska Steamship Company, went to Seattle early last month to at- tend a conference of company agents which began January 9. He went to New York to meet his family, who had preceded nim, taken delivery on a new car in De- troit,‘and visited relatives in Allen- town, Pa. The Juneau family drove down the East coast to Key West, Fla., then up the west Florida coast, across the country via New Orieans and Houston to Los Angeles and Seattle. In Phoenix, Ariz., they visited Mr. and Mrs. Earl McGinty, who inquired eagerly after the many friends of their Juneau residents. More “home town” talk was in store at Los Angeles, where the Greens arrived while two Ketchikan families were visiting a third one. The Ed Elliotts and the Schuyler Duryeas were guests of Mr. and Mrs. Al Milotte. The Greens enjoyed the Alaska reunion and heard much talk of Milotte’s work for Walt Dis- ney productions. Milotte’s “Seal Island,” (on Prib- iloff Island seals) won the 1948 Academy Award for the best two- reel subject of the year. It is booked for showing in Juncau this spring. RECEPTION HONORS DR.

Nor with Lewis’ work orders. The question now is what Uncle | Uncle Sam will do about enforcing iis stop-strike command. The government is standing by with a wait-and-see attitude.

At the time she submitted her manuscript which relates the ex- periences of her husband herself during several pre-war, war and post-war years in Fairbanks where they built a church and parsonage and watched the town change with changing wartime conditions, Mrs. Morgan did not know that Zonder- n was having a “Christian Biog- raphy and /or Missionary Book Con- test. After receipt of the manuscript Mr. Zondervan, head of the pub- lishing house, asked if he might enter Mrs. Morgan's book in the contest which had been advertised in Writers’ Digest for many months.

O. Eastaugh to fine him. He could not be jailed because he might endanger the health of other tenants in the jail. City Magistrate Eastaugh said: “Case dismissed.” ORDERS FOR COOKIES WILL BE TAKEN NOW BY GIRL SCOUTERS Orders for the Girl Scout cookies will be taken soon, according to Mrs. Robert Boochever, chairman of the sale, who said the supply last year did not nearly fill the demand.

Oh, third prize is only $150.” But the prize means publication and royalties and means, too, that Mrs. Morgan’s manuscript was selected over hun- dreds of others. The Morgans had lived in Fair- banks for seven years prior to their arrival here. They came to Juneau in the fall of 1947, purchased a home at Auk Bay and were for a time pas- tors aboard the Princeton Hall. They have been associated with the Methodist Church since last sum- mer. Because a roaming writer and photographer took her picture sev- eral summers ago, Mrs. Morgan sees herself in publications every once in a while with a story that teils of her being “the only woman minister in Alaska.” “I don’t know that I am, but I don’t know when I'll see my picture in a magazine with a story aboul myself. It has already been in Holi- day and in Pageant.” Now that she is an author with a book about to be published, there will probably be more pictures in more magazines. 5 ARRIVE, 7 DEPART BY PACIFIC NORTHERN i Five persons arrived from the westward via Pacific Northern Air- |lines yesterday, and seven were outbound passengers.
