In the spring a young man’s fancy
etc. while the old men dream of days
gone by. The prospocto r gets an outfit
together and begins wooing the Goddess
Fortune once more. The raven’s croak
is a shade more cheerful and the new
grass is fresh and green
The report that there is a new mil
lion dollar corporation entering into
the Copper River makes the spring
days seem even brighter than they are
It is another proof that this region has
a singularly bright future. The strides
already taken toward progress are past
and should be forgotten, it is thefuture
that demands our attention.
It is from the future that we expect
great things, not from the past. The
mines and placer ground now being
worked in this part of the Territory
produce a vast amount of wealth to
day, but we venture to assert that
within the next tep years there will be
twice as many again properties develop
ed as there are today.
Perhaps the warm sun and the
spring fever induces a too optimistic
viewpoint: dut the world is^short on all
mineral so it would seem that econom -
ic pressure should foice development.

This being the time of the
year when we pay our school tax
many people wonder exactly how
much it costs the Territory to
educate a child. The report of
the Commissioner of Education
for the past two years shows
that the child attending school
outside of an incorporated town
was taught at $108.57 for the
term of 1920-21 and 103.02 for
1921-22. in incorporated towns
the per capita cost was 105.84 in
1920-21 and $97.21. Thus a mean
average $106.78 for 1920-21 and
I
$101.55 for 1921-22 gives an idea
of the cost of educating child
ren in the Territory.
Last year the total number of
children enrolled was 8,65(>, 9t>5
of whom were natives or of na
tive blood.

The annual pageant given for
the past two summers at the U
ofjW. stadium is to be super
cded by an equally colorful spec*
tacle, if financial arrangements
can be made.
The pageant selected is "Araer;
icanus,” written by Edmond S
Meany, depicting the history of
the United States from the Rev
olution, through a series of pict
uresque tableaux and dramatic
episodes.
Six thousand people are requ
ired for the cast.
The receipts from the pageant
will be used to defray the Sta
dium debt.
