It is necessary to prepare yourself for
an y th in g in which you are to engage.
It m atters not w hat you u n d ertak e if
you are u n p repared the chances for suc­
cess are against you
The physical in stru cto rs and various
coaches at 0. A. C. are aw are of the
necessity for preparation. Proof of this
assertion lies in the fact th a t they are
alread y preparing for next fa ll’s football
battles. They have about 40 men in
Jight train in g for service on the gridiron
next fall. This is all very well so ta r as
O- A. C. is concerned a t present, but we
cannot resist the tem p tatio n to speculate
on w hether or not the strenuosity of
these young men will perm it them to
condition them selves in fa th e r’s hay field
«luring the sum m er vacation? I t would
seem th at w ithout they had recourse to
som ething of this n a tu re all present
work will go for naught.
But aside with all such speculation
the fact rem ains th a t the necessity of
p rep aratio n is recognized. Let all of
our Chemawa stu d en ts take notice, for
AM ERICAN
herein lies the key to life's successes
Now is the tim e to prepare for w hat you
will be called upon to face later. An
education will assist you more th in a n y ­
th in g else in your b attle of life, so p re ­
pare do it now. M astery of some par
ticu lar trade or in d u strial occupation
will be discovered later to be the most fit­
ting p reparation ever made. Above all
things bear in m ind the “ necessity of
p rep aratio n .”

W ell-inform ed Russian subjects art
responsible for the statem en t, which hat
never before appeared in p rin t, thal
Russia has never received one cent of
the purchase price which the United
States paid th a t country for this vast
dom ain. U nder the term s of the sate
the United S tates agieed to pay the sum
of $7,200.000 for Alaska.
Russia re-
serveu w ithin the coniines of A laska
certain Greek church properties. The
Greek church is the established, or gov­
ern m en t church of the Russian em pire,
in order io m ain tain this religion in
A laska, under the A m erican occupation,
the Russian au th o rities placed the
$7,200,000 on desposit in the St. P eters­
burg hank, and the in terest thereon
pays the ru n n in g expenses ot the various
Greek churches in tiiis territory. I t can
he used for no other purpose. W hile
theoretically the U nited fetales paid
$1,200,000 for A laska, p iactically the
money, or rath er the in terest thereon,
is wholly expended here.—Seward W eek­
