A CREDITABLE NUMBER
A special edition of the Verstovian, published month
ly by the pupils of Sheldon Jackson school at Sitka, has
been received by the Gateway and will all due respect to
other school publications in the Territory, the issue now
before us is one of the best to have come to our attention.
Jomes H. Condit, D.D., is superintendent of the school,
which is conducted under the auspices ofthe Board of Na
tional Missions ofthe Presbyterian Church.
The Verstovian is printed in the school shop; the
type is set by the native boys and all the work of the paper
produced in the same manner. Dr. Condit states that
“we findthat the experiences of the print shop are a very
valuable supplement to our instruction in English.”
The edition is devoted almost entirely to a presenta
tion of the school work and is full of interest from begin- j
ning to end and is a credit to the young publishers. The
stories are very well written and the photographs are nu-!
merous and appropriate.
Dr. Condit, the staff and the pupils, each and every
one, are congratulated by the Gateway; but listen, folks,
why take issue with the Empire, or any other Alaskan
daily publication over trivial matters like the word “Si
wash?” You are publishing a school paper and a mighty
good one. Confine it to that.
Spring is here and a young man’s fancy turns to Rus-I
sian river trout.
Hunters are arriving to shoot big game. Later they
will shoot the bull.
Because of its rich, savory flavor,
Frye’s "Delicious” Brand Bacon
adds extra appeal to many other
food dishes. Bacon is in season the
year round and is suitable for serv
ing at any meal. It harmonizes with
and tones up other meat and many
vegetable dishes, as well. BUT IT
MUST BE GOOD BACON. Ex
perience will teach you that Frye’s
"Delicious ’ Brand Bacon is "every*
*hing the name implies.”
