ELKS ARE CALLED
TO FIGHT THREAT
FACING WORLD

urer. Harry Newell; Inner Guard,

Organist P. DeBoer and Card Lect
urer, E, A. Vincent.
Eight Given Antlers
Elks antlers were placed on the
following: J. Peter Christensen,
William R. Vernon, Albert L. Shaw,
David R. Minard, William C. Rey
nolds, John W. Jutsum, James J,
Vuille and Arnold Johnson.
Grand Exalted Ruler Kyle then
gave one of the most stirring pa
triotic talks perhaps ever heard a
an Elks gathering. He cited the
threat of Communistic imperialism
that may require the United States
to remain mobilized for the next
10 years. This is no time for business
or politics as usual, he said, and de
clared that every Elk must sacrifice
“to win this struggle for survival.’
Duty Is To Sacrifice
‘‘Our duty is sacrifice, he pointed
out. "We should be prepared to dc
without the luxuries which we are
accustomed to expect and even to
curtail necessities. When the nation
is fighting for its life, the hoarder
and the blackmarketeer are enemies
of society.
"No black market can exist with
out patrons and he who buys on
the black market is just as much an
enemy of society as he who sells.”
He called on the members of 1,580
Elks lodges to action in the cause
for freedom. He urged Elks "to pre
serve the constitution, laws and in
stitutions of the nation as a reflec
tion of the will of the people, of you
and me. This is the hour of our
greatest danger, the Russian threat
of Communistic domination of the
world. Let us face it with faith, with
courage and resolute determination.
■With God’s help we shall not fail.”
PGER Anderson also made a
short, characteristic talk and called
on Elkdom to support the constitu
tion of its own order.
There were various awards made
during the late session. Frank Mur
kowski, PER of Ketchikan was call
ed before the altar and GER Kyle
presented him with a watch, a gift
from the Ketchikan lodge for serv
ices given. The gift came as a dis
tinct surprise to the receiver.
Charles Garfield was given a
photostatic copy of the charter of
the Elks lodge. GER Kyle presented
new member Albert Shaw with the
pin his father wore during his life
time and Gene Vuille presented his
son James with his Hawaiian pin
to be worn with his pin from
Juneau.
PER Kyle himself had a surprise
coming and he received gifts from
the Elks, one six blankets with
which to keep warm.
There was plenty of doings going
on at the session and perhaps some
of them have been missed, but any
way a grand time was had by all,
as they say. Following the session
ladies night took place and con
tinued, with dancing until 2 o’clock.
Many of the visitors were home
bound yesterday, all declaring that
the Juneau lodge knew how to en
tertain. GER Kyle, and PGER And
erson left during the afternoon via
PAA for Seattle after a breakfast
at which GER Kyle was host to
many Elks.
Before leaving GER Kyle com
missioned District’ Deputy Steven
son to attend the Territorial Elks
convention to be held during this
month at Kodiak.

MRS. M. HERRING,
POLIO VICTIM, IS
GREATLYJMPROVED
Mrs. Marilyn Herring, stricken
with polio Saturday and takep to
St. Ann’s hospital, is spending in
creasing periods out of the iron
lung.
"This polio case is not of an epi
demic nature but is a sporadic one
such as might happen at any time,”
said Dr. J. W. Gibson, her attend
ing doctor. "I feel that she is out
of danger with the possibility of no
general residual paralysis.”
Mrs. Herring is greatly improved,
according to Dr. Gibson. She has
very little if any paralysis at the
present time as a result of the sick
ness.
The iron lung, dedicated last Sat
urday by the Elks and given by
them to the cities of Juneau and
Douglas, was taken to St. Ann's
hospital Saturday evening by local
and visiting Elks from the local
lodge rooms.
Mrs. Herring has been employed
as a store clerk.
Dr. C. C. Carter, city health of
ficer, today warned against undue
panic because of a possible polio
case in Juneau.
“This case has not yet been
definitely diagnosed as polio. Pre
liminary tests given are negative as
yet,” he said. "The sensible thing
to do is to take precautions such as
getting plenty of sleep and rest,
keeping children from undue strain
and exciten*ent, and avoiding
crowds. No quarantine is planned a;
it has not proven of any value.
There is no known preventative for
polio such as shots and vaccines.
"The situation is being watched
closely and if anything comes up,
the public will be notified,” Dr
Carter said.
KEITHAHN BACK
WITH CURIOS OF
S.E. FOR MUSEUM
E. L. Keithahn, curator of the
Territorial Library and Museum
returned to Juneau Saturday after
noon after visiting Petersburg
Wrangell, Ketchikan and Hyda
burg in the interests of the mu
seum.
One of the most important
“finds,” which he brought back, is
a very old Tlingit doll which was
recovered from between the walls
of a house which was razed in
Ketchikan. The curio is in an ex
ceptionally good state of preser
vation both as to coloring and con
dition.
The doll, its body of buckskin
with blue trade-bead decoration, is
encased in a replica of a sack 01
bag, made of dyed native grass
in which early natives carried ba

-a reputation for service and integrity
hies on their backs. The head of
the doll is of woven spruce root.
At Hydaburg Keithahn obtained
an early Hyda digging implement.
Its tip, about three inches across,
is of copper set in a spruce handle.
Keithahn said that the implement
showed that early Alaska natives
had a completely different method
ol gardening than was practiced
at that time by Europeans.
In Wrangell he purchased some
out-of-print books from the late
R. J. Suratt collection.
Curator Keithahn also announ
ced that the museum is now on the
mailing list of the Ketchikan Fish
and Wildlife Research laboratory
for pamphlets concerning explora
tion and research on fish and
shell fish. He brought several back
with him on albacore tuna and
king crab.
A recent donation to the museum
is a 14 x 15 gouache painting of
Mendenhall glacier, donated by the
painter, Agnes Gough who is su
pervisor of art in the Anchorage
schools. It is one of 12 which Miss
Gough had sent to the recent art
exhibit held in Juneau.

HOUSEWIFE. It’s simply amazing
the way Sanitone Dry Cleaning

clothes. Colors and patterns just
seem to spring back to life. And
what a surprise to find out that

trace of smell. There’s no other
dry cleaning service in the world
like it!

a Sanitone dry cleaned suit holds
its shape, keeps a razor-sharp
press so much longer. And you
never have to worry about em
barrassing cleaning odors cling
ing to clothes. Sanitone is better
every way!

termining how often you can
scare up a raise. And certainly no

cleaning odors. The beautiful
press just lasts and lasts. Minor
mending is free. No wonder
Sanitone Dry Cleaning is fast be
