bteres'ing Items About
Farlhest-Korth College
(Fairbanks News-Miner)
Charles E. Claypool, a prominent
attorney of Seattle, and one of those
sourdoughs who counts his years
spent in the Interior as the best of
his life, has a good word for the Col
legian and the College in the follow
ing paragraph to President Bunnell:
“I was much pleased, as a Sour
dough and one of the Fathers of Fair
banks, to receive the Farthest North
Collegian this morning. It is a long
cry from the trading camp and Bar
nett’s store and the Big Saloon to this
modern little city with such an insti
tution. My daughter, now the moth
er of two sons, made the grammar
grade in Fairbanks. My son, ready
for High School from his training
there, graduated in the College of
Science at the University of Washing
ton in 1920. Tempus do fugit, eh,
wot ? All good luck to you personal
ly and great success to your institu
tion.”
