The mission’s boarding schools are located at three places, Holy Cro: Pilgrim Hot Springs. and Akulara Twenty sisters, ten brothers, and thir- teen priests are engaged exclusively in Indian work throughout Alask. while in the three boarding schools 400 children are fed and clothed Why Appeal Is Made. Need for public support of the Alas- kan missions is due this year, it is explained by those in charge, because “the government has withdrawn all assistance,” and the commissioner of education has determined to staud by the law “that hereafter no appro- priation whatever shall be made for education in sectarian schools. F. C. Dillon, 8. J., in writing of the ‘glory of the church in Alaska, ex- plains that “on account of the scat- tered conditions of the nati and | the impossibility of training and in- structing the children in the innu- merable little villages—a village may number anywhere from two to twenty tamilles and be from one to twenty miles apart, and be reached by boat four months in Summer and on foot with a dog team to carry provisions for eight months in Win —our boarding schools are an absolute ne- ceasity und should rather be increased in number and size than diminished.” The tragle, heroic death of Father Ruppert, when he was trving to carry toys and Christmas greetings to the Bskimo children at the mission in Nome, is said to have been a powerful stimulus to the movement, through- out the country to support the mis- sion. In describing the death of Father Ruppert, Michael Wiiliams of New York City, sending a contribution to the cause wrote “He left Pligrim Springs on December 13, hoping to say his mass on Sunday the 16th in Nome, but on Tuesday the 1S8th his body was found guarded by his faith- ful dog, blood from a wound being frosen on his forehead, but his lips smiling peacefully.” While responsibility for support- ing and housing the 443 persons rets on the provincial of t Cal- ifornia province of the Society of Jesus, the Alaskan missions have | been “placed under the protection of the Gulld of the Little Flower," which is now endeavoring by the mah-jong party to raise funds for helping to carry on the general mis- sion work in Alaska. This is in ad- dition to the annual sale which is conducted by the Guild of the Little Flower for the benefit of a hospital at Ketchikan, Alaska.

Ireland has designated April 6 to 11 as the date of the next examination for promo- tion to staff sergeant, medical depart- ment, medical and dental service. Re- quests for admittance to the class should be forwarded from corps area headquarters or from independent stations not later than March 20. In the Philippine department, Pana- ma Canal Department, and Hawalian department, the department surgeon und for the United States Army forces in China, the chief surgeon will take final action, as heretofore, for the surgeon general. Questions for, and detailed instructions rela- tive to, the examination will be for- warded In due time. A sufficient number to meet the needs of the service did not guality in the examination for staff sergeant held October & to 11, 1924. At pres- ent there are about 40 vacancies to be filled. As a resuit of the last examination, 59 candidates were ap- pointed to staff sergeant, medical and dental service, while 14 were glven warrants of this grade in the Veterinary service. In a letter of recent date from the adjutant general of the Army, the air service, which has been maintain- ing an average of about 8,700 men and fiying cadets, has been ordered to decrease this number to 5,530. As of October 80, 1324, the strength of the Army air force was 8,706 men and 160 fiying cadets, and on Nevem- ber 30, a month later, the serength figure was 8513 and 131 fiying cadets, or a total of 8,644. Strength figures for the month of December have not yet been compiled, but in 1l probability they will be close to the November mark. As a result of the order from the adjutant general, recruiting for air service units will be suspended until the newly author- ized total has been reached. An examination for appointment as fiying cadets was held last Tuesday, and those candidates sclected as a result of this examination will be as- signed to begin their primary instruc- tion in the March class. The next ex- amination will be held April 14, and those selected from this test will be- gin their Instruction with the class which meets in September. Sergeants in the finance department will, as a result of the examination which will be held at the various stations May 5, be for the first time placed upon the same basis relative to examinations and thelr positions on the promotion list. In accordance with the instructions issued this week, those desiring to take the approach. ng written tests should file their ap- plications between January 16 and February 15, as presoribed in Army Regulations, 615-5. Upon the com- pletion of the examination a board of officers will be appointed to grade the papers, upon which will be based the new lineal list Two types of ammunition, designed by rankford Arsenal, have been ap- 353 the Seeretary of War.

The armor-piercing type only may be consldered as a war standard. Two of the 37-mm. automatic air- craft machine guns have been sent to Aberdeen Proving Ground for a funo- tioning test. With these two guns there will also be a tryout of the 37-mm. automatio airoraft gun, model 1924E, developed by the Ordnance De- partment from designs by Capt. T. M. Jervay. The Ordnance Department is charged with the responsibility of supplying a machine gun to the Air Service | which will function satisfactorily- as a fixed synchronized gun with the synchronized gears and mounts fur- nished by the Alr Service. This prob- lem has not as yet been solved with any of the guns furnished for this purpose or now under test. Aooord- ingly, at the request of this office, the f Al ervice has sent a Lib r Spanish muitar, |Alr. Serv has ser Liberty motor and all necessary appendages to Aberdesn Proving Ground, where a program of test is being carried out with the intent of specifically identi- fying that part of the problem for which the ordnance is responsible and to develop means for eliminating such sponsibility. Graduation exercises for the present class attending the Army Industrial College, Waehington, D. C.. wil be held February 2, in the War De- partment. Simuitaneous with these mmencement exercises, the new class, composed of 21 student officers, will enter upon their course of indus- trial instruction which will be of five months’ duration.

The Navy Department will announce later the Seattle’s itinerary after this date. As a result of the recent examina- tion for promotion in the Marine Corps, a 1ist of 28 offiders, headed by Col. William C. Harllee, have qualified for promotion. There are still about 15 more cases to be considered by the Marine Corps Central Examining Board, upon which no action has been taken. An examination will be held, be- ginning February 16, for the ap- pointment of boatswains (T), gun- ners (ordnance) (T), and pay clerks (T), which will be confined to tem- porary and regularly enlisted men of the Coast Guard serving on that date.

Dayton, U.8. N, who has been in command of the speclal service squadron, has been selected by the Navy Depart- ment to command the 12th naval district and the Mare Island Navy Yard. With this vacancy filled, there now remains only that at Norfolk, which, in all probability, will remain vacant unt!l the general rellef of officers from the fleet takes place in June or July. The assignment of Admiral Dayton to the Western sta- tion relieves Rear Admiral J. S. Me- Kean, U.8.N,, who has been assigned to the command of the scouting fleet, East coast Orders have been Issued by the Navy Department authorizing the convening of a board of officers at the department tomorrow for the purpose of recommending one officer of the Construction Corps for proms- tion to the rank of rear admiral.

All notices for this column must be in the hands of the chairman by noon on the Wednesday preceding the Sunday on which publication Is desired. Address Mrs. J. N. Saunders, 3618 Porter street northwest. The monthly meeting of the D. C. Congress of Parent-Teacher Associa- tions will take place Tuesday at 1:45 pm. in the Ebbitt Hotel, with the president, Mrs. G. S. Rafter, in the chair. There will be a brief parlia- mentary law drill conducted by Mrs Willlam Woif Smith and reports from the chairmen of the many depart- ments and from the P. T. A. presi- dents. The monthly mieeting of the exe- cutive board of the D. C. Congress was held in the clothes conservation | room in 1464 Columbia road, Tuesday afternoon, with Mrs. Rafter presid- ng. It was decided to hold a Fathers' Night” meeting of the D, C. Congress of P. T. A. during the last week in January, the date and place to be announced later. The presidents of the school P. T. A. have received letters from the board of education asking that the different school associations indorse the “flve-year building program.” No one is more vitally interested in the schools than the parents, who pay the taxes which support them and furnish the children who attend them. In some way the impression has been created that the P. T. A. is opposed to the *“five-year program.” Such is not the case. As an intelligent group of parents whose special object is to work for the good of the schools, the P. T. A, both collectively in the D. C. Congress, and individually in the smaller school associations, most heartlly Indorses the prineipal pro- visions of the much discussed plan The chief objection that the parents find fn the proposed building prosram is that clause which provides that the new junlor high schools shall be patterned after the MacFarland. The parents are far from satisfled with some of the architectural construc- tion of this building, especially with the long, narrow and dark corridors, and they would like new buildings planned along more modern lines. Aside from this the D. C. Congress of P. T. A, as an assoclation repre- senting the parents of the District of Columbfa, will unanimously indorse the “five-vear bullding program” when- ever its is presented to them. The reappointment of Judge Sel- lers is a source of satisfaction to the members of the D. C. Congress of P.T. A. Mrs. E. R. Kelmbach, chair- man of the Juvenile Court depart- ment of the organization, has been an untiring worker for Judge Sel- ler's reappointment, and last Spring she presented to President Coolldge a petition containing ‘he signatures of thousands of the parents of Wash- ington which asked for this appoint- ment. The compulsory school attendance biil now before Congress is one of the most necessary matters of school legislation under consideration. If every thoughtful titizen will consider for a few moments the future results of our present lax laws in this matter it will be very plain that the im- portance of the above-mentioned bill cannot be too greatly stressed. With the “five-year building program™ pro- viding for the physical comfort and condition of the future citizens of the District of Columbia, the compul- sory school attendance bill is nece: sary to make the Washington schools the model system they should be. The members of the District of Co- lumbla Congress of Parent-Teacher Associations are backing this bill both individually and collectively.
