THE PIONEER
The pioneer seldom receives the reward that he earns.
He discovers, usually at great sacrifice to himseli, the
richest of undeveloped countries and when the hidden
wealth is proclaimed to the world others come m an
profit by his explorations.
As a rule he passes away before his prophecies aie
entirely fulfilled and is remembered only by monuments
or distinctions, often in the form of cities and counties
named after him. While the visible rewards bestowed
upon the pioneer are usually very inadequate, he has what
money cannot buy—the satisfactions that comes with the
consciousness of service rendered. This is reallv the
highest reward that anyone can earn.
Alaska will never retain its population or acquire any
wealth until it provides winter jobs for its working men.
In too many instances a man will come to Alaska and
work through the Summer, only to find that if he would
dve through the winter he must go to the States foi em
ployment. As the working man is the producer of all the
wealth of a community, it stands to reason that he should
be provided with an opportunity to labor if he so desires.
There is no money made in working a few months and
being forced to lay up all winter.
India claims a people supposed to be descended from
the donkey. We have the same biological specimens, but
don’t claim ‘em; they just “growed.”
If one lives courageously, out of what seems disaster
one may achieve victory.
It so happens that Alaska frozen assets require only
machinery and not laws to make them function.
There is no man more valuable to a new country than
he who starts a new industry. And such a man in Alaska
should be given every assistance.
It’s not gossip to open one’s heart to a friend: Indis
criminate talk is vulgar.

SPECIAL SCHOOL
MAY BE OPENED
HOPE THIS YEAR
A special school will probably
be opened at Hope this year, ac
cording to information from A. E.
Karnes, Commissioner of Education
of the Territorial schools.
The school at Gustavus, which
was discontinued last Fall, will be
reopened this year. A special school j
may aso be opened at C1 a r k’s
Point.
Final decision as to the opening
of the schools above named places
will be made by Commissioner
Karnes when he visits those com
munities. He planned to leave the
city of Juneau on the middle of
August for a trip that will take
him to almost every section of the
West, Interior and far North.
While these schools may be op
ened it was also said that four
other schools would not open this
year. They are the school at Mile
Seven, on the Copper River and
Northwestern Railwav; Premier, in
the Matanuska coal mining dis
trict; Frankiln. in the Forty-Mile
district on the upper Yukon. The
latter two schools are special
|and their attendence has fallen be
llow the required standard and they
| must be discontinued. Another
j school, a rural school, at Fairview,
; in the Matanuska Valley, will pro
bably be discontinued for the same
reason.
