CATALOG FOR ALASKA
COLLEGE OFF THE PRESS
The 1921-5 catalogue of the Alaska
Agricultural College and School of
Mines has been completed by th‘
Gateway, the book having 72 pages
and an edition of two thousand coi ^
ies. Looking over the catalog one
wonders why any student goes to the
states for an education, as every sub
ject from a Business course to Mod
ern Science is taught, with the added
opportunity of Agriculture and Min
ing courses. The College has a mag
niticent equipment and its staff of
teachers is the best that money can
hire.
Those interested can secure a copy
of the catalog by writing to C. E.
Bunnell, principal.
NOTARY PUBLIC—Always on the
job from 8 a. m. to 5 p. m., D. H.
