Bird of the gull family pen Oii: wuttig | Inspection Service, P s 20 YEARS AGO 7%: sumrirE FEBRUARY 18, 1930 The Seattle Times had featured a two-column picture of Miss Grace Vivian Da of Juneau, then a drama student at the Cornish School. She appeared that week in the Cornish Players’ production of Thorton wilder’s “Trumpets Shall Sound,” in a poignant character role. It was a triumphant basketball team representing Douglas High School that returned on the Alaska from Wrangell. There, they had peaten the Wrangell aggregation in two lopsided contests to win the Goldstein trophy permanently for three years’ consecutive wins. Doug- las already had won the championship in 1921 and '22, and in '24 and 6, but.the 1930 triumph was the first time they made it three con- secutive years. Miss Lucile Pepoon, coach, had accompanied the girls. For whatever it means, “The Roughneck’s Dream,” an advertise- ment by Wrecker Lee Rox, formerly of the Jiggledy-Higgledy Company, appeared in The Empire: “Snow Time—Harvest Time of Pork Chops (concentrating thought is astounding) for Jim-Jerry, Cotton-tail Bill, Big Hearted Charlie, Putty Eyed Slim, De Horn Pete, Koko Head Nick, Blackie, Blondie, Pablo of Tex-Arkana and Mike of Baboon County. Tip toes, on your tip toes, on guard. We all work in conjunction to serve local citizens.” Official preliminary census returns for 1930 for the First Division gave Juneau a population of 4,016, the largest in the Division “and undoubtedly in the Territory at large.” Ketchikan, with 3,780, ranked second to Juneau; Petersburg next, with 1,217, and Sitka, the only other town to pass the thousand mark, had 1,053. The total population of the First Division was 19,138, a gain of 1,736 over the 1920 census. John Newmarker and Capt. G. M. Morgan of the U. S. Steamboat returned on the Alaska after a week’s inspection trip to Ketchikan. E. E. Engstrom of the Alaska Fish Brokerage, returned from Wran- gell on the Alaska.

When one is a house guest, should one make the move to go to bed or does the hostess proclaim the time? A. Usually the hostess suggets that perhaps her guest is tired and would like to go to bed. On the other hand, if the guest is really tired, she should not hesitate to say so. Q. Is it proper for a girl to accept expensive gifts from a young man who has been calling on her for some time? A. She should never accept an expensive gift unless engaged. Q. Isn't it permissible to acknowledge a gift over the telephone? A. A letter or note of thanks is far more preferable. lOOK and LEAR A C.
