Alaska Labor Union to
 Be Under a Single Head

KETCHIKAN-Complete plans for the organization into a unit of the Alaska Labor Union, will be completed at the All-Alaska conven- tion which is scheduled to be held at Juneau, October 10, according to H. V. Henrikson, secretary of Local No. 5, located here.
 At present, there is no territorial organization of the Union.
 The first chapter was organized at Anchorage, and that local has taken the lead in the affairs of the union. As more were organized in all parts of Alaska the need tor a territorial organization became more apparent.
 At the Juneau convention at which represen tatives of all the local or ganizations will meet together, a general set of officers will be elected. Their headquarters will probably be at Juneau, on account of its cen- tral location.
 The Ketchikan local has taken the lead in the affairs of southeast ern Alaska" said MT. Henrikson,
 as this is the largest branch in the territory. A branch was re- gently organized at Craig, but up to that time, all A. l.. U. men who were in the vicinity were members of No. 5."-Chronicle.

girl making them at the front. For
instance we usually had to make
them in a dugout, using any old
boards we could get together to make
a table, and our utensils were often
D wash-boiler, an old rusty stove
and a bottle for a rolling pin.
[ used the top of a baking powder
can to cut out the doughnuts and
the top of a shaving-sticz can to
make the holes.
Put a large pan on the stove one

it 20 heaping tablespoons Of baking
powder, 4 teaspoonsfuls Of salt and

water, teaspoons of vanilla ex-
tract and 4 teaspoons of cinnamon
or nutmeg. Pour into the first bowl,
adding if necessary more water, and
work until 70 have a soft, workable
dough.
Roll out thin portions of the
dough on your table, cut out the
doughnuts and the holes with suit

are ready now for frying. Place
them in a wire basket, lower into the
