DIPHTHERIA IMMUNIZATION
TO BE GIVEN
Deputy Commissioner of
^Health, Dr. Thomas Morcom, an
nbunces that immunizations for
'diphtheria will be offered Friday,
November 11, 10 to 12 a.m. at the
Territorial school. Infants and
children, ages 6 months to 3
years inclusive will be immuniz
ed at that time. Immunizations
will be offered later to the re
mainder of the pre-school group.

Immuization against diphther

ue by reducing the incidence of
diphtheria and it is sincerely
hoped that parents will take ad-1
vantaye of this opportunity to
protect their children against
this disease.
.ADVICE
A well-known attorney was al
ways lecturing his office boy!
whether he needed it or not. One!
day he chanced to hear the fol-1
lowing conversation between the
boy and the one employed next
door:
“How much does your chief
pay you?” asked the latter.
“I get $1,500 a year. Five dol
lars a week in cash and the rest
m legal advice!”

MINERS PONDER
NEW WAGE LAW
ANCHORAGE —Mine operat
: ors of this section are pondering
what steps should be taken with
provisions of the new wages and
hours act. ,
As far as could be learned,
none of the mines in this section
of Alaska have yet ascertained
what steps are necessary to come
within the terms of the new law
which limits the work week to
44 hours.
Arrivals from Goodnews Bay
report that operators in that sec
tion have taken no steps to con
form to the law and some con
tend that placer mining is a sea
sonal occupation and exempt
from most of the provision of the
act.
Because of a report from Ad
ministrator Andrews in Washing
ton, D. C., that the new law
would not be enforced immed
iately pending the establishment
of the organization and handing
down of interpretive rulings,
most of the miners are under
stood to be marking time in the
matter.
Th^ law requires that time and
one-half be paid workers for all
work exceeding 44 hours in one
week.

FR. TURNELL PASSES
AWAY AT SEMINARY
Word was received here of the
death of Father Philbert Turnell,
88 years old. Father Tui'uel]
acted as assistant at the Church
of the Immaculate Conception in
Fairbanks from 1926 to 1933,
when because of disability ac
companying old age, he was re
tired to the Jesuit Seminary a!
'Spokane, Wash.
His last illness was occasioned
by a fractured hip incurred
about a month ago when the el
derly priest was taking his daily
walk about the seminary
grounds.
Father Turnell was a veteran
Alaska missionary, having come
to Juneau in 1890, During the fol
lowing years he served as pastor
at Skdgway, Juneau, Douglas,
and Anchorage.
Born in Italy of a noble family
in 1850, Father Turnell came to
the United States in 1884 and did
missionary work in Montana and
Washington before coming to Al
aska.
His scholarly attainments, re
fined gentleness, and kindly in
terest in others, endeared him to
all who were privileged to know
him. — Fairbanks News-Miner
