ing out the other machines. This is
all very well, but as there are six
pupils to use the four remaining type
writers, this arrangement is quite com
plicated. Won’t someone take pity on
Edna (and us) and fix her typewriter?
Some of the boys in Tloom 4 have
a very queer idea of what the patri
otic songs are. In fact, one of them
suggested “The King of the Cannibal
Islands.” In the South Sea islands
this might be considered patriotic,
but it is feared that he has made a
“faux pas,” or, as someone said, a
“fox pass.”
Is anyone experienced in teaching
poems? Wednesday before last a
poem was given the high school pupils
* *to be learned by the next Wednesday.
Memories seemed very short, for when
Wednesday morning came few were
the ones who could recite. Interest
ing sessions were held until late in the
afternoon of that day.
Can anyone give us information as
to our packages of gum that were sent
to one of the teachers from an un
known person?
While examining some typewriting
papers Miss White stated that one let
ter looked pretty good even if it
wasn't “paralyzed.” (Of course we
all knew she meant “paragraphed.”)
(Dorothy Dooley)
The first year algebra class is to
have two days a week tor rapid cal
culation instead of one, beginning
Monday. One day will be used in
practice on “Thompson’s Minimum
^Essentials” sheets and the other in
fast work at the board.
ittiss Keever: “What is meant by
the expression, ‘hyphenated Ameri
can’?” .
Elizabeth O’Loughlen: “Would
‘Mary Baen Wright’ be an example?”
(John Rosswog)
The drinking fountain in the high
school room has developed unexpected
possibilities. While trying to get a
drink on Thursday William McGowan
received a bath. William said it would
have been all right on Saturday, but
on Thursday it was one too many.
Barth O’Loughlen’s desk is like the
donkey with the load of salt or the
magician who can get a bale of paper
out of his mouth, for the desk, at a
moment’s notice, wall disgorge text
books, pencils, pens, ink or writing
paper in profusion.
(Almira McGowan)
The general science class has cov
> ered two chapters about rivers and
their work, also a chapter on glaciers
*and lakes.
(Leona Churchill)
For the first time in many months
the walk up the hill and the school
steps are free from ice and snow,
which fact is appreciated by us.
The teachers accuse us of not using
the big Webster’s dictionary that
threatens us from its corner in the
high school, I wonder though, if
they have never noticed how dam
aged and thumb-worn it is, and that
many tabs are missing. But the ques
tion is, did it get that way by use or
through revenge.
(Lawrence Graham)
The sixth grade is getting along
quite well with decimal fractions,
which they started to study some time
* ago.
The sixth and seventh grade draw
ing class started doing some charcoal
^vork a fewr days ago, and are getting
along first rate. We are now drawing
a picture of a mountain on Hawkins
island.
(Billy Field)
There have been quite a few ab
sences during the last month in
Room 3.
The marble craze is on in Cordova.
On every corner you see marble
games.
(Genevieve Dyson)
The sixth and seventh grades are
studying about artists. They are most
interested in the painters of animals,
Bonheur and Landseer.
The girls in the sixth and seventh
grade sewing class are making aprons
now.
In Room 3 Monday morning arith
metic periods are spent in quick work,
in multiplication, division, subtraction
and addition.
(Pierre I)e Ville)
The pupils in Room 3 have coined
some new words. They are “atall,”
“unmultiplied,” “pussyfootedly,” “tree
louse” and “k’flooey.”
One of the pupils in Room 3 com
bined words and wrote “X-raygeous”
for the two words, “X-ray” and “out
rageous,” on his spelling paper.
The pupils in our room had a spell
ing contest, but neither side won, as
those left standing, on both sides,
missed the word “hippopotamus.”
(Headlee Lamprey)
A sixth grader, writing about Mo
zart, wrote: “And they don’t know
where his remanze are.’*
The sixth and seventh grades had a
short test in geography over the Cen
tral states last Friday.
(ftrooke Lamprey)
The pupils in Room 4 are now work
ing for their diplomas, having sent
away one hundred drills for the
Palmer pin.
Louise Tibbs has been absent from
school for two weeks.
The freshman history class is now
reviewing Greece.
I Edna Thawley, John Rosswog and
Dorris Adams are the only pupils in
Room 4 that have not been absent or
tardy all year.
(Eugene Tibbs)
The after-school session in spelling
has not been so well attended this
week as last.
The freshman history class have
been making their own outlines this
week.
(Dorris Adams)
In the high school course for next
year all the pupils will be required to
take typewriting. This will be a great
help to the pupils in other subjects,
even if they are not planning to take
up a business course.
On the last boat Miss Keever re
ceived several pamphlets regarding
the “Liberty Calendar.” which are
very interesting as well as instruc
tive. After these were read the Eng
lish classes then wrote compositions
about the new calendar.

EASTER
SUNDAY
“The first day of the week came
Mary Magdalene and the other Mary
to see the sepulchre. And behold,
there was a great earthquake: for the
angel of the Lord descended from
heaven and rolled back the stone from
the door. And the angel answered and
said unto the women, fear not ye; for
I know that you seek Jesus, who was
crucified. He is not here, for He is
risen, as he said. Come see the place
where the Lord lay. And go quickly,
and tell his disciples that he is risen
from the dead; and behold, he goeth
before you into Galilee; there ye shall
see him; lo, I have told you.

“ON THE TOP OF THE WORLD—PAYING THE TOP OF THL MARKET'
In presenting the following quotations we want you to understand we pay
what we quote. If the market advances after the issuance of this circular
we give the shipper the benefit of the increase. Upon request we shall be
pleased to keep you advised of market changes. Bear In mind that because

to, and do, PAY THE HIGHEST PRICES FOR FURS OF ALL KINDS

Prices above quoted are all for No. 1 best grade furs. Lower grades, in
eluding pale skins, priced in proportion.
WE ARE THE LARGEST DEALERS IN RAW AND MANUFACTURED
FURS IN THE NORTHWEST, and all we ask of you, Mr. Shipper, is to give
us the chance of a trial shipment and we will convince you that we pay more
for furs and make quicker returns than you can get anywhere in the''country.
We have been in business in Alaska for 36 years and have built up a very
extensive trade. We sell manufactured furs in all parts of the United States
Canada, and in a great many European cities.
By shipping to us you are not only helping an Alaska industry but you are
helping yourself to build up a business that belongs to Alaska.
We eliminate the middleman entirely, as we buy direct from the trapper and
trader and sell direct to the consumer; thus we are able to pay you a better
price than you can get elsewhere. WE MAKE RETURNS THE SAME DAY
SHIPMENT IS RECEIVED.
If so desired, when your shipment amounts to $100 or more, we will wire our
bid, and if not entirely satisfactory you may wire at our expense and we will
ship to any place you designate.
All we ask of you is to be fair with yourself as well as with us, and make us
a trial shipment; the result will make you a steady shipper.
