MAIN’S HEART
Man’s love is quickly given
And sometimes quickly killed;
Man’s heart is easily broken—'
But seldom ea-ily healed.
A careless word can cause a hear:
Such crucifying pain;
A tender word that brings a smile
Is never spent in vain.
FV>r the more you spend of kindness
The more you have to spend
And everywhere you go you know
You’re bound to make a friend.

Badly^ crippled by the precipita'e
decline in appropriations, the Ala
ska branch of the Geological Sur
vey is carrying on as best it can.
For the fiscal year 1932 the
branch received $85,000, which re
presented . a large decrease. But
that was nothing to what lay a
head. The 193 3 appropriation
was $60,000, and only $30,000 was
made' available for the fiscal year
which began last Saturday.
Dr. Philip S. Smith, chief of the
branch, said yesterday that work
will be carried on as efficiently as
possible under the greatly curtail
ed appropriation.
Dr. J. B. Mertie has set out for
Ruby, the Kuskokwim and the Id
itarod. He will have no assistance
and will have to carry his own
supplies,
R. H. Sargent will continue top
ographic mapping at the north end
of Prince of Wales Island and in
tlfe vicinity of Wrangell Narrows,
His meahs of travel will be a dory,
as there is not even enough money
available to hire a launch.
S. R. Capps has been temporar
ily assigned to the Alaska Rail
road and will be carried on the
railroad rolls. He will be assoc
iated with Dr. Ralph iTuck in field
work which will consist primarily
of extending the survey of th»
Willow ('reek area into the Talk
eetna mountains.
ft
Gerald Fitzgerald, topographer,
is with the navy exepdition which,,
is surveying harbors and landing
fields in the Aleution Islands. He
left in March and will not return
until late in the season.
Dr. Smith himself hopes to leave’
Washington for Alaska in the
next few days. He has been re
maining Ln» the expectation that
funds would he made available
from the public works act and is
still hopeful] that additional mon
ey will !be obtained from that sou
rce.
He is anxios to have conferences
