in a boat. These queer native craft are as hard to ride as bucking bron- cho, and exhibitions will be given by expert canoemen. Then comes all kind of races, for thin people, fat people and people who can really run.
 After luncheon the men will try conclusions, pole vaulting, jumping, and other field sports. The Finnish horse offers a goodly prize to the youngsters who can subugate this un- tamable equine, and the boy and girl bicycle riders will give a show of speed Then comes the principal fea- ture of the day. and one which never fails to attract universal interest in a mining man-the rock drilling con- test. A huge block of granite is mount ed by two men who have acquired both brawn and lucre by swinging a sledge against drill in the hard rock of the mines of this vicinity. One holds the drill and the other sees how hard he can hit it for a definite time. The couple who drill the deep est hole get the prize, which is one hundred dollars for first; fifty dollars for second and twenty-five dollars for third prize. And worth the money. Two teams of expert ball tossers will play a match game for a handsome purse on the grounds at recreation park. AS this is for real kale, it is likely to be a good game. After the ball game a crew of lusty men will tug on a rope for several minutes, in an endeavor to pull each other over a line stretched on the ground. The crowd will then adjourn for dinner.
 At nine D. m. will come one of the main features features of the day for those who love Terpsichore. A grand ball will be held in Eagle hall by the Ladies Auxiliary of the local Igloo of the Alaska Pioneers. These ladies who have never given a poor social function of any kind, have charge. of the ball, and that it will prove equal if not better than any event they have heretofore staged, goes without saying. They have lived in Alaska long enough to know what Alaskans desire in the way of a dance program, and have arranged the pro- gram to suit everyone. A prize of $10 will be given to the best lady waltzer. This applies only to adeptness at the dance, as all of the Valdez ladies would be entitled to a prize on beauty

WHY SOCIETY WOMEN WASH
THEIR OWN HAIR

They do. not because II is a fad,
but because they wish to obtain the
greatest possible hair beauty and be
sure they are not using anything
harmful. They have found that in
washing the hair it is never wise to
use makcshift but is always advis-
able to use a preparation made for
shampoo,ng only. Many Of our friends
say they get the best results from n
simple homemade canthrox mixture.
You can use this at a cost of about
three cents a shampoo by getting
come canthroX from your druggist,
and dissolving a teaspoonful in a cup
of hot water. This makes enough
shampoo liquid to apply to all the
hair instead of just the top of the
head. as with most preparations.
Dandruff excess oil and dirt are dis
solved and entirely disappear in the
rinsing water. Your hair will be so
fluffy that it will look much heavier
than 1t is. It's lustre and softness will
also delight you.-Adv.

this week when they passed in review
before him at the brigade review,
initial muster and regimental inspec-
ton ceremony. 1.-THE men are magnifi-
cent specimens of manhood and a
credit to the state of Kansas" said
Colonel Reeves. "'They are all fine
appearing men, said another officer,
'and the efficiency which they display
in the execution of the military move
ments is a credit to the men of any
military organization, and if they were
not from the state of Kansas it would
be surprising to any officer to note
the wonderful progress they have
made during the few short weeks
they have been in training"

mental fund should be made payable

officer 353rd infantry, Camp Funston.
