EKLUT1 SCHOOL
FIE INSTITUTION
STATES VISITOR
VALDEZ MAN SPENT THREE IN
STRUCTIVE DAYS AT GOV.
ERNMENT SCHOOL
“My visit to the Eklutna Industrial
school a few days ago was the first I
had made and to say that I was sur
prised at the conditions I found would
be putting it mild,” stated Carl Miller,
pioneer of this district and a resident (
of Valdez since the early days. Mr.
Miller is in Seward today enroute
home following a visit to his adopted
daughter at the school. Mr. Miller’s
own story of his inspection and im
i pressions gained at the government
school is best told by his own descrip
tion, as follows;
“I was astonished to see how the
Eklutna Industrial school is conduct
ed for I had always had the impress
ion that a school of this sort was more
of a rough and ready kind but in the
three days I was there I changed my
opinion. It certainly is one of the
'greatest institutions of its kind in the
Territory and a whole lot of credit
is entirely due to the superintendent,
Mr. Briffett and his staff of efficient
teachers.
“There are about 75 boys and girls
and believe me they are the finest
lot of children anyone could wish to
see. Since Mr. Briffett took charge,
two years ago, lie has carried forward
some wonderful improvements. At the
present time there are the following
buildings; boys dormitory, girls dor
mitoryy kitchen ajnd dinning room,
gymnasium, carpenter and machine
shop, director’s residence and a hos
pital.
“The staff includes Chas. Briffett,
director, who has had 37 years experi
ence in industrial school work; Ma
jory B. Major, nurse; June Briffett,
teacher; Merlin Fitch, teacher; Eunice
Fitch, teacher; Beatrice Smith, teach
er; Elmer T. Smith, in charge of the
shops and manual training instructor
