DESCRIBES TRIP
OVER CHITINA TRAIL

Charles L. Mason, secretary to
Chairman Edes, of the Alaskan Engi-
neering Commission, who was a men,
Der of the party of officials on their
recent trip to the interior, sends the
following to the Alaska Railroad Rec
ord at Anchorage:
Interpreting the Indian word rather
freely and using it's verb form pro-
duces a word description of my re-
cent trip, for | was. tenderfooter,
soft, downy and cushiony.
Leaving Anchorage on August IS
we reached Cordova before autumn.
Mr.. Corser, of the c. r. & N. w. rail-
road. had his private car awaiting
II and we were whisked away for
Miles Glacier. After listening to it's
awesome thunder for half an hour
we piled into a Ford car trained to
run on a railroad track, and bowled
away for Chitina.
Chairman Edes' party is we'll ba
lanced. There is l.. & |. Manager
Christensen, who acts as spokesman
and orator, MIR. Ferguson is ballast
and the undersigned is luggage boy.
New, there is joke connected with
that last item, but | never was much
good on telling jokes-on myself!
With driver we filled every crack
and crevice of the railroading Ford.
At Chitina Bobby Sheldon's Fords
made fine connection; in fact they
had been waiting for us for a week
1t was $50. but we tore off SO miles
to Copper Center, where the Tender
foot from Anchorage entered with
fear and trepidation his first road
house. A sumptuous supper was serv-
ed, table de hote looked like anything
but war time, and we were all ready
for the straw, which is accurate for
some of the hunks. "Four-flfty," the
proprietor said next morning, and
l replied that each traveller was pay
ing for himself, he went on to ex-
plain that he was quoting to me my
individual bill Well, to live thus iso-
lated deserves some reward.
We were up with the sun and on
that day passed Gulkana, Sourdough,
Meters and Paxson, 81 miles. Ber-
, ries to right of US, boulders to left of
us, chug-holes in front of US, onward
we rambled. And the morning and
the evening were the second day"
Then came the treacherous chang
ing glacier streams, but we made for
them at O'Clock in the morning and
passed the most difficult before they
had time to swell to any great extent
with the days sun upon them. We
were really surfeited with scenery.
Here a dashing stream, now a strip
nearer the snow-capped range. AS we
advanced the reception committees
became larger and more insistent, and
we finally put on our wells! At last
came the summit, Donnelly's Dome.
and the road house at Richardson's
with it's inviting white sheets, signs of
drawing civilization. Distance for the
day lis miles.
Only 70 miles lay between US and
Fairbanks, and Bobby Sheldon wired
that he would arrive at noon. AS the
whistle blew for IL o'clock we pulled
into the towns main street Simply
Seldom Service, as Bobby mispro-
nounces it. Distance travelled from
Chitina 319 miles, over roads more or
less Indifferent as to quality (the best
the road commission can do perhaps
with the funds available) in actual
running time of 80 hours.

sort of thing will be quite expensive
when autumn comes again.
OF course, wide-necked bottles are
the best for preserving, but all should
be saved. The narrow-necked bottles
may be saved for putting up catsup,
fruit juices, SyrupS or other liquids
Olive bottles even may be useful in
putting up picked nasturtium pods,
which will come in very well in the
winter for flavoring salads and meat
sauces. their flavor being very much
like capers.
Altho there is usually poor economy
in saving broken, cracked or nicked
china and crockery ware, it would be
a good idea this year, if you are so sit
uated as to be able to put up a good
deal of jams, preserves and other
canned things, to save old cups from
which the handles have been broken
or any other dishes that might be used
as containers. Jellies may be kept in
such cups and sealed as usual with
paraffin. They should be the first
to be used in the autumn, if they pre-
sent a rather unattractiVe showing in
your store closet.
1t would really be worth while to
make an inspection of all your pantry
shelves in search of dishes, jars, vases
or pitchers not in use that might be
useful to use for preserving fruits and
vegetables. So long as they are whole
and can be thoroly eleansed in hot
water there is no reason why they
should not be used.

THE HOUSEHOLD
Thrift in Old Bottles.
Edited by Anne Rittenhouse.

We housewives have just been thru
a period of lavish plenty such as was
never known before in the history y
housewifery, and, who knows but it
may never be known againi
Just think of the bottles that we
have thrown away or given to the rag
man for a few cents, or perhaps mere
~ for his trouble in carting tkem
awayi Our grandmothers would have
been Mortified at such lavishness al d
yet there was good sense in our action
because new bottles were so cheap
and plentiful that the time we would
have spent to save them for future use
would have been worth more to us in
other ways than the bottles were
worth. OF course, we saved preserv-
ing and canning jars from year }
year, but bottles in which we bought
canned goods or food commodities of
any sort went the way of all Rubbish.
But now there is serious shortage
of glass and the other materials of
which the home preserving equipment
is made. Tin in which the ordinary
commercial timed goods are put up
is also scarce. and consequently this

Rumanian embroidery is sent out by
the French designers for the newest
of June gowns, and there is hint
that gypsy costumes may become
fashionable.
New York, June Even those OBJ
servant men and women who are in
Paris and who sit daily in the salons
of the designers confess that they
are puzzled as to what silhouette is
preferred over there
None of them deny in their letters
or cabled reports that each designer
tries out a dozen or more kinds OF
costumes taken from various and op-
posing epochs of the worlds history
and from many races.
Here there is the Directoire, there
the first empire, the Egyptian ana
the Roman, as revived in Napoleon
time because of his victorious wars.
The Spanish still raises its head in all
the hest costumery, and here there is
the sleeve of the toreador the VIDE
sash of the Algerian soldier, the wind
ing headdress of those who dwell IN
Mesopotamia, and the buttons, trap
rings and epaulets of the millions OF
men who are killing each other as pest
they can. ,..,.,
This is not an impossible situation
either for the public or the dress
makers If women dress alike week
In and week out. or if fashion allows
them to look like a Spanish bullhght-
er on Monday, a Benedictine monk
on Saturday. with a CLINT of free Po-
land on Wednesday, they are very well
satisfied.
Inspiration From Rumania-
Everybody who knew anything
about fashions and their sources and
inspiration knew that Rumania would
quickly furnish many ideas; and the
colorful and effective embroidery OF
that country instantly found its place
among the most expensive garments
that France sent to America.
The gown sketched today came di-
rect from the house of Drecon and
shows a wide splash of what they call
broderies Rumanies The gown itself
is in blue, with a deep tunic belted at
the empire waistline. with two buckles
in front There is a Directoire col
lar, and the full panel in front of
Georgette crepe is one of the features
of this summers frocks.
It would be difficult to count the
number of new gowns that have this
full front reaching from bust to
knees and adjusted in some manner.
