heavens throughout the entire year.
 Jupiter will move eastward and south ward through Leo during the year, but it's motion is so slow that it will not en- tirely cross this constellation. It will thus remain shining in the evening sky until August 9.
 saturn is a little to the east of Jupi- ter and is moving even more slowly eastward and southward. The two bright planets are 1 hour 36 minutes apart on January 1 and but 57 minutes apart on December 31 It requires ncre than 29 years for Saturn to make q complete circuit of the heavens and but 12 years for Jupiter; hence the latter planet overtakes the former one but very slowly. In fact, Jupiter will not pass to the east of Saturn until September 14. 1921. But the two ob jects will form an interesting sky figure, as they shine in the western sky from midsummer of 1920 until they are finally lost in the rays of the sun.
 Saturn rises few minutes after o'clock on January 1 and about two hours earlier in January 31. It is thus just beyond the borders of our even ing map, but by midnight it is in ex- cellent position for observation. The rings now appear exceedingly narrow, and they will continue to decrease in width until the first week in Novem- ber when We will pass through their plane and view them exactly edge wise.
 Uranus and Neptune continue their slow, eastward motions. Throughout the year the former is at almost the center of Aquarius and the latter is on the eastern borders of Gemini. In seven years Uranus will pass to the north of the equator and in 2S years it will reach the summer solstice. As ,tronomers must thus wait until the year 194S for the most favorable op- portunity of observing it.
 ECLIPSES IN THE YEAR 1920
 There will be four eclipses during the present year, two of the sun and two of the moon, but only tfo of these are visible from any part of the United States The first which is the most interesting of all, is a total eclipse of the moon. on the evening of May 2. The eclipse begins about p. m. and lasts about three hours, the moon pass ing almost centrally through the great shadow of the earth.
 On May IS, at 1 a. m, there will be a partial eclipse of the sun, but this will only be visible to observers in Australia and near the south pole of the earth
 On october 2s another total eclipse of the moon will occur but as the time when the moon is most deeply inn persed in the shadow is a. m.. the moon will be below the ground as viewed from the United States. Finally. on the forenoon of Novem- Der 10, there will occur the last eclipse of the year and this will be visible as a small part:Sl eclipse of the sun in the eastern and northern Cnited

TEACHERS NOT ANXIOUS
TO COME TO ALASKA

Teachers for schools in Alaska
are not as easily secured this year
as in the past, according to L. D.
Henderson, territorial commissioner
of education, and his assistant, Miss
Margaret Scott, who are endeavor-
ing to fill several calls for teachers
in Alaskan schools for the coming
year.
This, Mr.. Henderson explained, is
due to the fact that salaries paid in
Alaska to school teachers are no
longer as attractive as heretofore.
During the past year or so, a ma
tion-wide movement has effected a
general raise in teachers salaries.
This, together with the shortage of
teachers, which still exists in the
States, has caused fewer applicants
to apply for positions in Alaska,
However, Mr.. Henderson said that

LITTLE COUNTRY
STRIPPED BARE

Red Cross agent from Budapest.
There are only "a locomotives in
the whole country for the transport
of troops, munitions, and supplies.

of food and equipment There are
not sufficient horses to transport
field artillery, no tractors for the

Rumanian medical stats died during
the war. and there are virtually no
airplanes, armored cars or tanks
Despite the efforts of the authori-
ties, the country is harboring Boil
shevik agents struggled in by Rus
STA, Hungary and Bulgaria. AS 90
per cent of Rumnaia is illiterate,
the Bolshevik danger is apparent
The greatest need is food Food
for the army and food for the civ
ilian population. America has sent
a dozen food ships to Rumania and
the American Red Gross is distrib-
uting food at Canteens and by
means of rolling soup kitchens wher-
ever the need is greatest. In the
Dobrudja, where the smallpox cpl
demic is at its worst, the American
Red Cross has many doctors and
nurses.
America has loaned Rumania s5,-
100000, but the financial situation
of the country remains critical,
writes the Red Cross man. This he
attributes to Rumania's inability to
export and to the broadcast issue
during the German occupation of
worthless banknotes.
In addition to food, the Rumani-
an army and civil population des-
perately need clothing. Cloth for a
suit of clothes costs $50 a yard. a
yard of linen for shirts costs IS,
and shirt of ordinary quality $40.

LADIES' PATCHES.

It was left for the court of Louis XIV of France, to display patches" on their pretty faces-to enhance the beauty of a dazzling complexion, or to draw attention to a dimple in the chin or cheeck- Today's date, Nov. 19, celebrates these patches at their high est, in 1769, when Du Barry was at flood festival in France.
 Nay, earlier than Louis Quinze the fashion of patches had obtained a great vogue In the days of Charles II of England, Patches, were ex- trenaely fashionable. Nay, earlier than the court of the Merry Mon arch, in Elizabethan England fops of the period anticipated the ladies, and decorated their faces with stars, cres- cents and lozenges cut out of black taffeta and gummed to the face. Be- fore us, is a picture rom a delicate old print of 1888. of a lady with curls. Her right cheek exhibits a black i circle on her rounded chin; and a big, black star on the right cheek (near the curls!); a half-moon near the corner of her alnaond-shaped eyes, and on her left brow is a most neat {black) coach-and-four with driver whirling his whip. The lady lived in the reign of Charles I.
 This "coach- h-and-horses patch" was a great favorite. But a wag of the era who undoubtedly had been bitten in his counting, writes wrath fully of this patch: :--"Methinks the coach-and-horses all sl black and plying on the forehead stands ready harnessed to whirl this lady to Ach- eron, though I pity poor Charon for the darkness of the night, since the moon on the lady's check is all in eclipse. and the poor stars on the temples are cIouded in sables. and no comfort is left to Charon but the iozenge on the lady's chin which, if it pleases Charon he may pick off fro his cold

stream, of millions of men, who must take up again civilian duties. New ideas have taken root in society, or rather old ideas have blossome ed again; the conception of liberty which was voiced as the goal of war has become a program for individual and collective justice, which shows itself in worldwide movements de- voted to the reconstruction of the economic life. These movements are pregnant with mighty possibilities of change.
 All must be faced if the world is to be kept at peace within and with out; dozen minor wars remain to be settled; a score of nations still fester with angry wounds, unhealed by the Treaty.
 This. at the end of the first year of peace, is a frank statement of the situation, which carries such a dire threat of colossal disaster. The only stea dying power in sight is the Lea gue of Nations. The first year of peace has seen it born. The second year. if justice rules, will See 1t working it's way through the worlds troubles.

Dermatologiat Gives
 Complexion Secret

''The great secret of keeping the face young is to keep off the de q cuticle," says Dr. J. Mortimer Mitch ell "Tt is well known that the sur face skin is constantly dying, falling off in imperceptible particles, except in some diseased conditions, when the same appear like dandruf. But the particles do not all drop off inn medtately they die, being held for a while by the live skin.
 ''To have the dermatologica1 sur geon peel off the entire outer skin at one time is a painful and expensive operation. The same result is ob- tained by applying ordinary merco- lized wax, as you would cold cream, allowing this to remain on over night, then taking it off with warm water. One ounce usually sufnces. The pro- cess is both painless and inexpensive. The wax, which is procurable at your drug store. hastens the natural she'd ding process. It gradually absorbs the dead and half-dead skin, reveal ing the new, healthy, youthful-look- ing skin underneath. ."-Adv.
