Judge C. E. Bunnell, who left foi
the lower river on Tuesday, is mak
ing the trip at the request of the
department of justice and proboblj
will be away from headquarters un
til late in the summer. The trip
will take him to Tanana, Ruby,
Ophir, Flat, Crooked creek and the
Kuskokwim, with a term of court al
Flat during the early summer, prob
ably in June. The fact that the
judge has been dispatched on such
a lengthy trip on the eve of his
supposed retirement from the bench
has created considerable comment in
local Republican circles. Judge Bun
nell is accompanied by Assistanl
District Attorney E. Coke Hill, with
his fast dog team.

serious illness of her sister, Agnes
is delaying her return to Nenana
Mrs. Tyler was to have startec
North several weeks ago, but it i;
probable that she will not now be
able to start until after the openine
of navigation. The condition of the
sister is such that she will have tc
undergo an operation very soon, and
it is feared that her chance for re
covery is slight.

RICKERT BOOSTING SCHOOL
FOR HIGHER EDUCATION
Representative Paul J. Rickert, of
Fairbanks, who recently introduced
an appropriation measure for $41,
000 for the Agricultural College and
School of Mines at Fairbanks, is
positively convinced that the institu
tion is a worthy one and that with
the appropriation granted, great
good will result. Mr. Rickert is a
member of the boaid of regents of
the institution.
“The Agricultural College and
School of Mines will furnish advance
courses for more than oO per cent of
our high school graduates who must
| now go to the Outside for the nor
mal and college training which they
cannot secure at home,” said the
pioneer Fairbanks farmer, recently
to a representative of the Juneau
Daily Empire. Continuing, he said:,
“It will bridge the gap between
public schools and college, since it!
is open to all students who have j
completed the first six years of the!
course of study of the public school
or who are over 14 years of age
and who are devoting at least one
half of their time to industrial sub
jects as preparatory work in the
mechanical grades, industries for
women or agriculture. The federal
grant of $50,000 which will be avail
able annually to this college under
the provisions of the Nelson amend
ment of 1907, permits instructions
to be given in a wide range of sub
jects.”
Mr. and Mrs. Ed Ness and child
arrived in Nenana from the Outside
yesterday, enroute back to American
creek from an outing in the States.
Most of the winter was spent in Cal
ifornia, chiefly in Oakland.
