pany has put their oating cannery

olher industries on par with this
company entrs the various fields we
can look for greater development in
the Territory.

PROVISIONS FOR INFANTS
The child welfare law adopted in
the spring of 1926, provides for the
appointment of child-welfare com
missions in cities and towns in
Greece. Every city or town is re
quired to provide funds for the
maintenance of infants deprived of
mother’s care and for women nurs
ing them. Physicians or midwives
attending births must report them
within 24 hours. All births must
be registered by the police and lists
sent weekly to the local child wel
fare commission which must investi
gate and aid needy cases.
i
Douglas is installing a system of
Are alarms with the view of increas
ing the efficiency of their Volun
teer Fire Department. The bell
alarm system for a long time has
not been considered adequate by the
citizens of Douglas so they plan to
install the sirens.
An inadequate system of fire
alarms delaying the firemen from
goiing to the scene of fire with hand
chemicals or even with a bucket of
| water oft times is an expensive pro
position. “An ounce of prevention
is v orth a pound of cure.”
WE STARTED SOMETHING
Taking issue with the Alaskan
in the matter of comparative school
attendance between Juneau and
Ketchikan, Stroller’s Weekly stated
that counting the parochial school,
attendance, at Juneau enrollment
exceeded that of Kttchikan. Comes
back the Chronicle as follows:
“Just to keep the record straight,
it may be modestly stated that
Stroller’s Weekly is in error on the
subject. In the Juneau schools
there are 365 pupils in the grades
and 95 pupils in the high school,
with an enrollment of 65 in the
paiocoial school, making a grand
total of 525. So far so good, and
fine for Juneau.
Put Stroller’s Weekly, in com
parison, takes the enrollment of
[Ketchikan during the first week of
school, when the attendance was re
ported as 498 and so published.
Last week the enrollment of Ketchi
kan was 520 pupils, 407 in the
gtades and 113 in the high school.
The new Charcoal Point school dis
trict, as primarily a part of the
Ketchikan school as the parochial
school is a part of the Juneau
schools has an enrollment of 60 pu
pils.
Which makes the grand total for
Ketchikan 580 pupils.
A lead of 56 pupils.”
Stroller stands corrected. Ju
neau hates to admit that other ci
ties are growing faster than she is.
