Join the collar to the neck edge vith the center backs and the notches exactly meeting. If it is unlined, take the scam up on the right side and roll the collar over, If it is lined join the out- side to the neck edge and hem the lining over the seam.

sleeveless blouse is liked made of the favorite wool jersey, for sports silks and for linen to wear over sports blouses, and t also Is liked for silk pongee and similar materials to be used over the thin gown when little extra warmth is needed. For the latter use, a girdle would be better than a belt. but for the sports costume belt is to be preferred. As you will note by the illustration, with the sleeve less blouse the band at the lower edge and the big pockets are omitted, Various materials are used for the blouse with sleeves, in fact, almost everything from crepe de chine to wool jersey for it is good model for pongee and for any sports silk, and 1t is a good model for silk jersey and it is a good model for linen and tor cotton gabaSdine and it also can be used for the khaki which we are likely to wear so much this Summer, although for khaki or material of similar sort you would use the belt, rot the gildle.
 As there is no opening there are no buttons to be sewed on but button holes to be made. no straps to bc at tachcd and the labor of making is greatly reduced. In the large illus tration at the left, the blouse Is shown made of gold colorcd pongee with trim ming of gold color striped with old blue to be cn1inently picturesqNe and adapted to country wear.

marking will depend upon your ma terial. Tailor's tacks arc good for everything. but if a tracing weel can be used it will be simpler, and some women will mark with crayon and after removing the pattern pin through each pcrforation on the under side to sec exactly where the crayon marks should be placed there. If you like the facing at the lower edge, but do not want the pockets, cut off on the indicating lines, but for sports use 1t will be we'll to use the pattern just as it is shown in the illustration. If you are going to make the sleeveless blouse you would, of course, cut the pattern out on the indicating lines before placing it on the material and omit the sleeves.
 As a first step in the making, join the shoulder edges that are marked G-D, take up very narrow seam on the right side, then turn over and stitch a second time on the perfora- tions. If you are making the blouse with the sleeves, join the sleeves to the arm-holc edges. the notches ex- actly together and the single. large circle at the shoulder seams. Re careful to hold the sleeves toward you as you haste to avoid any possi- bility of strain over the shoulders Again take up your double seams first narrow one on the right side then wider on the under-sale.

GOD HELP ALASKA
(Valdez ProspectOr.)


 Now comes the Walsh bill which proposes to "pe out the inerdic against coal land development in the States but leaves the conservation camoufage over Alaska It is not hard to guess why public opinion in the States demands more coal in these days or mgn prices and most people know that development , o coal properties in the States can be carried on "lh restrictions against monopoly but whenever anybody proposes freehand development of Alaska large ma jorty of the same folks yell thelr heads ol over ie proposed highway robbery.
 It all comes about through the mitless sowing o
 transformation about Alaska in the conservation pes tilence of 1910 and the year following In that hapess epoch the real Territory of Alaska was smother ad under a barrage of bumbug by the yellow journals and magazines and little of the truth has yet bored through the pail. All opponents and practitioners varied forms of asinnity every notoriety-seek ing windammer and every thn-witted idealist with message for the world exhorted the peepul to stand guard lest the forty thousand white inhabitants or Alaska, aided by the swashes, carry away to some outlying planet deposits of gold and copper suiiiclent pave the highways of the continent like the streets of the New Jerusalem and coal measures that w3ulu JIG supply the earth for a million years and keep hell fire going at the time
 The peepul of the states swallowed the buu:, and when they their attention to the next fad they still carried the undigested dose of fiction i'll their noodles They seldom think of Alaska and when they do they merely resurrect old ideas They still believe somebody wants to steal Alaska in one chunk Con sequently when western legislator like Senator Walsh proposes something for the western states he fears to load down with Alaska. This haple5s ter ritory still the aviation field for Darius Green with a political economic or social flying machine.
 Maybe it will be different hundred years from But if it doesn't change pretty soon there won be any white people in Alaska ten years hence
 For a decade the bureaucrats have been running Alaska the ground They have been allowed to do it because fubdub that has been peddled about Alaska "treasurehouse that belongs to the whole nation" Folks outside been led to believe that they have dividends due them in Aaska-hat Alaskan people picking money up like wild fruit and carry ing away in baskets They think Aaskans should paid ordinary wages for staying up here and packing the mazuma into government warehouses
 When the States" learn that Alaska is simi lar to the west the Rockies to the Pacific and that men have to work and take long chances here just they do in Colorado Montana or Nevada; that the of doing anything is greater and the atrac less than any of the western states they will understand that Alaska will never be develop until here be offered possible returns cor rsponding to the work and risk.
 God help Alaska if the government will not.

ABOUT WAR LIES

The only way to account for of the stories that are going the rounds is to describe them as war lies That is exactly what they People who would otherwise be truthful, msrepresent things in times of Stories that one would think of re- beating in times of peace repeated by our best people" when strife is abroad in the land. It is a sort of psychological effect of
 Take the stories that going the rounds con corning the Red Cross There were bigger lies circulated many wellmeaning people have aided in their circulation One says that sweater she knit for her boy found in the Lcssesion of Red Cross worker-a papable lie. Another says that the presents intended for the boys at the front are ap proprated by those who expected to forward them -an unvarnished falsehood. Still another that of the workers other peoples supplies for use, such knitting yarns, and the like d Ilan untruth. Then there is the Ibe to the effect that only about fifty cents dollar contributed really reaches its destination the balance being spent by those having charge of the wCrk of distribution.
 There has been a time in the history of the world when the world honesr. There has never been time when much of the money contributed by the charitable reached its destination There has been a moment when those working for the re- lief of others unsefshy with little profit themselves The misrepresentations to the con trary ought to be set down due to the strain of the war.

REORGANIZE LOCAL DEMOCRATIC GU

Anchorage Weekly Democrat)
 The town of Nenana and almost all of the other places in Alaska of any importance have organized Democratic Clubs.
 Practically all of the big development work that IS being done, and that has been done for the past four years in Alaska is directly attributable to the Democratic Party
 We that this party is the only one who has ever stated regular development progran for the territory and had the foresight to inaugurate liberal policy for Alaska, and that will do the in habitants the most good.
 A good majority of the people here are Democratic in their politics. and while it is perhaps advan tageous draw party lines too tight in any locality the voters of any community who vote the Democratic tick ct are who will give the present administration the loyal support.
 Political parties that accomplish things in any country keep in state of organization and without |. .rganization the Democrats in this locality will find that near Democrats Republicans and BullMoosers constantly putting into affairs and getting more recognition their assumed political complexion.
 We would like to the Anchorage Democratic Club reorganized at And it should be the aim of reorganzers seek advancement for the communi ty within party lines.
 Let get busy and reorganze.
