How Can I Grow Up
To Be a Good Citizen?
Culled for the Nugget, without
comment, by L. E. Ost who has
supplied boldface for emphasis,
because he wholeheartedly agrees
with Mr. J. Edgar Hoover. The
words “for” and "against” bold
face by Mr. Hoover.
By J. Edgar Hoover, Director,
Federal Bureau of Investigation
One of the numerous questions
in the minds of young people to
day is “How can I grow up to be
a good citizen?” Many of the let
ters I receive daily from young
people across the country contain
this inquiry. The sincerity and
earnestness of purpose on the
part of these youth are very im
pressive to me. Accordingly, in
answering this request from the
youth of America for guidance on
the road to good citizenship, I
have drawn up the following basic
suggestions:
1. Complete your education —
and be prepared to earn both a
livelihood and your status as a
good citizen.
2. Respect proper authority —
for youth as well as adults, law
and order are the pillars of our
society.
3. Be dependable — always do
your very best in every day ac
tivities and in service for God and
country.
4. Live positively — play hard,
study diligently, take part in com
munity affairs, and be for what
you know to be right rather than
against what you do not like.
5. Do unto others as you would
have them do unto you — the
Golden Rule will always be the
shortest and surest way to per
sonal happiness and success.

RARE CLOUD FORMATION
OBSERVED OVER JUNEAU
JUNEAU tP — A cloud forma
tion rarely seen in Alaska and
never before sighted here was ob
served bv the Weather Bureau at
Juneau late Monday night.
The formation, known as a
noctilucent cloud, normally occurs
at an altitude of about 50 miles
and is believed to consist of mi
croscopic particles of cosmic dust
coated with ice.
According to the Weather Bu
reau observers here, only one of the
rare clouds was sighted in Alaska
prior to 1962 and only a few have
been seen since then.
The cloud was also reported by
observers at Gustavus and Cape
Yakataga.
Mrs. Bon Davis, who has been
on an extended vacation for the
past two months which took her
to Washington, D.C., and other
eastern parts of the USA visiting
with friends and relatives.
Ins trance Slocks Bonanza
Causing Invest?r Switch
The life insurance industry is the only American industry not
caught in a cost-price squeeze. Consequently, many investors
are switching from industrials to America’s over 1,000 publicly
held insurance company stocks, according to industry authority,
Arthur Milton. ...
For years insurance company operational cpsts have steadily
declined, and electronic computers are still cutting costs, declai ed
Milton, head of Arthur Milton & Company, Inc., N.Y.C., a bro
kerage firm dealing exclusively in life insurance stocks.
Other reasons behind this in
vestment shift are the growing
national life expectancy, which
means people pay premiums for
a longer time to insurance com
panies, and rising interest earn
ings on insurance company in
vestments.
There is also a trend on the
part of small investors to buy
stock of a company in which
they have a personal interest,
Milton noted. “Many policy
holders, learning of the profit
ability of life insurance com
panies, are going in through
the back doors of these com
panies as common stock pur
chasers, while also entering
through the front door as policy
premium payers.” Milton ob
served that several substantial
mutual funds have the great
percentage of their por
in life insur ance stocks.
Milton noted that there was
scant information about life in
surance stocks, and to fill this
informational gap he has just
authored a book entitled “Life
Insurance Stocks—The Modern
Gold Rush”, published by Ci
tadel Press. In it he points out
that if a person invested $10,000
in each of the stocks of the
Dow-Jones industrial list in.
January, 1952, and held them
exactly 10 years, they would
have gone up to an average of
$27,500. A $10,000 investment in
life insurance company stocks
of Standard & Poor’s life index
in the same period would have
jumped to $77,600.
Milton brings almost 20 years
of insurance sales knowledge to
the stock brokerage business
| through the operation of the
! Arthur Milton Organization, in
I surance specialists.

ing in a facing, setting in a sleeve,
putting on a waistband, setting on
a collar, making darts, putting in
a hem, stitching properly in the
right place using a paper pattern,
putting in a zipper, putting in a
lining and using interfacing.
These learnings resulted in the
completion and modeling of six
blouses, 11 skirts, six dresses, a
pair of slacks, two toppers, a shirt
and a remodeled coat.
Closing exercises for the summer
program were held July 3 with the
following students from the work
shop participating with arts and
crafts, music and other groups:
Marie and Mary Conwell, Lynn,

might learn more of the time,
work and expense involved in
such an undertaking.
