Alaskans to Aid in
Anti-Tuberculosis Fight
This year, for the first time,
Alaska will be asked to aid di
rectly in the fight against tu
berculosis through the medium
of a Christmas Seal sale, spon
sored by the National Tubercu
losis Association, according to
a recent announcement by G n\
John W. Troy, who will act as
chairman of the committee in
charge of the sale.
The Christmas Seal as a de
vice to raise money to fight tu
berculosis has been successful
in many countries. Placed on
the backs of envelopes and
packages in the holiday seas
on, the seals serve the purpose
of Yuletide greetings as well
as raise money to advance
mankind’s war on disease.
The seal sale in Alaska is to
start shortly after Thanksgiv
ing Day, when 14,000 Alaska
citizens will receive letters
asking them to buy the 200
seals enclosed, .cr as many of
them as possible. The money
thus made available will be
spent right here, among the
people by whom it has been
given. Alaska Delegate A. J.
Dimond and president Chas. E.
Bunnell of the Alaska College
are among the 16 members of
the Alaska sale committee.

Land-locked Fish Raise
Interesting Speculation
Discovered only in recent
years, a species of land-locked
salmon exists in the waters of
Lake Manzanita, high in the
mountains of Revilla island, ac
cording to the Ketchikan
Chronicle.
The salmon are said to be
native to the lake and are not
found in others, so far as has
been discovered in that dist
rict.
The question of how the fish
came to be there provides an
interesting speculation. Some
claim that birds or animals
have carried the eggs of
spawned fish to the lake, or
eagles, fishing in the creeks,
may have dropped a pair of the
species into the land-locked
waters. The fish are said to
be as large as the coho, but
have some different character
istics. Many of the fish have
ben caught by local anglers.
Trips to the lake are made
mostly by airplane.
Why shiver while waiting for the
fire to start? Use old papers from
the Herald Office.
