To the Editor
The Frontiersman
If you are a Democrat or a
Republican and you are satisfied,
then stay with your party!
But if you are dissatisfied!
Then the Alaska Party.
(The new third party) offers
the chance of a life time. Here
there are no intrenched machines
—no deadwood—no corrupt in
fluences, no overdue house clean
ing!
Up to now a voter could vote
for one of the Old Parties, or—
not vote—now you can vote for
the Alaska Party and vote against
both the Old Parties!
This will have the kind of in
fluence Alaska needs. With the
Red Moon's shadow on our own
dark face it is time for voters to
grow thoughtful.

in the early evening was the
teachers’ booth, wet sponges real

complete wreck. Mr. and Mrs.
Frank Roth and C. G. Gaither
were in charge of entertainment
Mrs. Glen Barnes was in charge
of the kitchen. Others donating
their services at various booths
were Hazel Wyse, Violet Coglan,
Mildred Minnick, Carol Lambert,
Katl:~ n Smyth, Jo Hamon and
Mary Combs. Everyone danced to
the music furnished by Ray Holtz,
playing the new Conn organ, and
Jack Lind of Anchorage who
played the trumpet.
Robert Isacc, administration
assistant to the Commissioner of
Education, visited the Wasilla
schools on November 4
Mrs. Dorothy Nelson is still at

And so in October we’re re
