After the passing of a few more
years, crowded with tasks for other
needy children under our flag—Porto
Rico and Honolulu receiving their
share—that awful scourge “Flu’
swept our lands, taking a heavy toll
from Alaska natives. Orphans many
were left around Nome. Our society
gathered many of these under a
“Home” shelter. But fuel, as well
as food was needed. Under their
willing leader the “Guards and Jew
els” quickly responded with $2,500
which was immediately cabled to
keep those children warm during
that winter in the far away north
land.
Later, Mrs. Goode and Mrs. Taylor
were sent by the Society to select a
location where Alaska children could
be cared for under less of winter’s
rigor, expense of upkeep. The Kenai
Peninsula where flowers bloom, lux
uriant vegitation abounds, and where
the future faces opportunity was
chosen, and the city of Seward,
“beautiful for situation” on Resurrec
tion Bay, was the selected spot.
Twenty acres of ground, with kindly
favors added, were the generous
gift of the city. But—buildings! —
What of them? These must be com
modious, since this new “Jesse Lee
Home” wms to shelter the combined
children of the old “Jesse Lee”, and
of Nome. It required no “binoculars”
to see that the great Mother Society
when it called “Alaska buildings”
looked our way. Could we disap
point her? Never! For we felt the
Northland need. This was the largest
gauntlet that had ever ben thrown
I before us, well we knew it, but

i sorrow, -we accepted it, and the

through jgreat sums was this money

against the future of our child, con

No more noble or more tragic
event is known to man or nature
than the supreme sacrifice of a
mother for her child at childbirth.
Such an event came to the home of
Emil Hagen family last week in Cor
dova, when Mrs. Hagen, after a
ten day heroic struggle with death,
passed away that her child might i
live. A 10-pound baby boy was born
[into the world on June 11, destined
j world wealth; and our faithful tire
less helper in the Junior Department,
[Mrs. J. W. Dowds, whose hand is
I tireless in recording details regard
less of our weary hours, we both
are happy in such love tasks.
Because of your generous spirit,
good people of Seward, we are here
on another of Alaska’s Fourth of
July. We gladly shared with you
the happy celebrations of the Na-!
tion’s Great Day. WMl you join us j
at our Jesse Lee Home on Saturday
next and enjoy with us the ceremon
ies that will celebrate the finish of
our Department task. We covet the
pleasure of welcoming you. The
joy of this trip are ours, but the gen
erosity that provided them was yours.
WE GENUINELY THANK YOU.

Bids for two Territorial subsidies
for shipping routes have been award
ed by Governor George A. Parks.
One covers Bering Sea waters out
of Nome south to St. Michael, while
the second is the Anchorage-Iliamna
rcute. The latter route is being
given a subsidy for the first time.
In 1925, the Territorial legislature
provided for subsidization of a ves
sel on the same run but no bidder
was found who could comply with
the requirements. The bid for this
service was awarded to T. O. Perry,
well knowm Anchorage boat operator.
A contract has been forwarded to
him for signature. The Nome sub
sidy was awarded to the Arctic
Transportation Company, of Nome,
successor to the Enterprise Steam
ship Company. It is a Lomen Com
pany and will operate the Silver
Wave on the Nome-Kotzebue run and
the Donaldson on the Nome-St. Mich
ael route.
