In order for any person to

i sonally, I see no sense !in com

, in a dreary quonset hut until

i It’s not our fault that we
; don’t have a new school now.
, Many times we have gone
! home to our parents and told
: them how we experience the
, inconveniences of our old
school. Maybe some of them:
have mentioned our troubles
to a councilman on the street,;
but talking to a few towns- j
people is not enough. The I
only way to get results is by I
organized community action, j
This should not only be the j
concern of mothers and ]
1 fathers but all the adults of
j Kodiak. For it isf everyone’s
duty to ?ee that the American
child receives a proper educa
tion in adequate and health
ful buildings. Grownups
should Organize now to make
plans for the greatest need
facing otir community:
People of Kodiak', please!
thshk this over. You owe your
children a real school where
they are to be! educated.
