Happy, Noisy Dog Pound
As Santa Visits With
Gala Holiday Biscuits
PIKESVILLE, Md., UP—Christ
mas has'already gone to the dogs.
As Russell W. Webb, represen
tative of a dog food company, ex
plained it:
“Joyful barks resounded and
tails wagged furiously yesterday
at the Baltimore County Humane
Society dog pound . . . The local
canine celebration got under way
when Santa . . . arrived and dis
pensed to every dog a banquet of
gaily colored and cleverly shaped
biscuits.”
Mrs. Helen Mudge, pound di
rector, said “it was one of the
noisiest and gayest occasions in
the history of the pound.”
And Webb added: “The Christ
mas for canines theme has caught
on quickly and has become an an
. nual event for the homeless dog
population.”
The typewriter was invented
by a Dane, Mailing Hansen.
MT. EDGECUMBE—The need
for trained practical nurses in
Alaska is critical, says Dr. Carl J.
Mankinen, medical officer in
charge of the Alaska Native Ser
vice Hospital in Mt. Edgecumibe.
Practical nurses fulfill an es-x
sential need in rounding out nurs
ing service and it is becoming
more and more urgent that they
be adequately trained, says Dr.
Mankinen. He adds:
“About one out of every 30 per
sons in the Alaska native popula
tion is under hospital treatment.
Native Alaskan young men and
women must help to raise the
standards of their people.”
Mt. Edgecumbe School of Prac
tical Nursing offers a practical
nursing training course to young
men and women who meet these
qualifications:
1. Good health. 2. One-quarter
Or more native blood. 3. Between

tion of 10th grade. 5. Ability to

Evidence of desirable character
and good study habits. 7. Be in
terested in an interesting and
challenging career.
The course covers 12 months
training in classroom and hospital.
Student uniforms, books, meals,
and room are furnished at no cost
to the student. Each student re
ceives a stipend of $30 a month
for expenses. Two weeks vacation
is given at the end of the course.
As a graduate practical nurse
you may be employed in a federal
hospital in Alaska at an entrance
salary of $3968.75 a year. Work
in other health programs in Alas
ka and the States is also avail
able.
