GOING AHEAD IN EDUCATION.
It is upon sound fundamentals that our civiliza
tion is built, and perhaps most important of these
is education. With enlightenment we go forward;
without knowledge we deteriorate. Thus it is that
we constantly strive for better and broader school
facilities for children, and now, with further ad
vancement along educational lines we are not over
looking the adults. Vocational education for old
as well as young is being carried forward, and with
a marked degree of success in the States. Now
authorities will soon be able to install it in Alaska.
