To paraphrase the old and WE'LL
known saying in order to apply it in
the. fashion world we may say,
when in doubt bay a suit" This
ia sage advice and the woman who
follows 1t shows wisdom and usual
ly has a well-dressed ~ look. The
business girl would not think Of do
ing without her suit, and other wom-
>en are coming to feel Just as she
does about it,, The. woman who
travels really needs u suit more than
any other garment. for with a suit
she is ready for almost any occasion
which may present itself. A change
of hlouses is easily carried in hand
luggage, and with dark georgette or
plain tailored wash blouscs for the
train or business and dainty light
colored fluffy affairs for dress there
is, no occasion, for any womanztO feel
out of place, unless it, might be at
a very formal evening affair.
Nowadays when limos everybody
travels without a trunk. there is need
for, conserving in Clothes and. the
suit Is n of the best ways for. the
travelling m to save packing
space. A coat or wrap a some kind
may he carried, and then there will
always be room for one little silk
afternoon frock or evening gown.
Here is a smart suit of tan gabar-
dine trimmed with s%elf-toned en-
broidery and braiding. The deep
revere collar and the cross belt are
particularly interesting details. Note
the very smart hat of plain brown
straw with coque feathers cutting
down over the brim.

INCORPORATION

In another ,lumn is a commun- icatiOn on the question of incorpor- ation in which the writer takes the stand that only those who have property interests within the piled area should have say in the mat ter. While this paper does not pro- pose to take sides on the question, it cannot agree that our correspon- dents stand is entirely we'll taken
 Considered as a community, it would seem that "Hydep" would consist of all the people living here, on the piled area, townsite, or the forest reserve. In any event, when visitors are shown the town, they are shown all three of these plats and told that they comprise the town.
 There Is aaother matter our cor respondent seems to have overlook ed, and that is thas while any resi- dent may sign petition asking for incorporation, only bona fide cili- zens of the Territory are allowed to vote upon it. Several of the largest business houses within the confines of the proposed corpora tion are non-voters who will have nothing to say at the polls as to in- corporation or the amount of taxes to be imposed upon them.
 The subject is a serious one 1nI should be carefully considered from all angles before a final decision is made.

 Dam Filled

The temporary dam for the Hy- der wateEWorks system has been completed and found by measure ment to retain 1,500,0O0 gallons of water, the reservoir filling in nine- teen hours after the gate was clos ed. These facts controvert the claims of certain pessimists that there was not sufficient flow of water in the creek to supply the needs of the town. Just when ser vice will be provided is not def1- nitely known, but it is understood that the work of laying the mains will proceed at once.

Floods Cause
 Heavy Losses

Nearly week of heavy rains has driven both the Salmon and Bear rivers out of their banks, and considerable damage has resulted Beside the falsework for the bridge across the Salmon at Texas creek and the wagon bridge across the Bear near Stewart going out, as re- ported last week, about 75 feet of the railroad bridge across the Bear has been washed away, as we'll as the bridges at Glacier cReek and Bitter creek, and mining operations up the Bear river valley will be ser iously hampered for this season in consequence, Two residences on the forest reserve at Hyder were undermined and carried down the river. They belonged to C.G. Burke and Stevenson,
 Miles of the Salmon valley woe on road have been flooded, making travel at times impossible, Some good has resulted howeveT, in that the government road builders have been shown just where the perma- nent road should be built. It will be necessary, if annoyance from fu- ture floods is to be eliminated, to carry the road around the hillsides, avoiding the river bottom at all times, and this will be among Fore man Evans recommendations.
 The damage done to the present road can be quickly repaired, and mining operations up the Salmon will proceed as usual.

A big she-bear which has been frequently seen with her cub near the first bridge on the road to Stew art, was shot this week by an Indian from down the canal. The killing was an act of wanton slaughter, as the bear was harming no one, the fur not prime, and the carcass not needed for food; beside which, the antics of mother and cub as they played together, furnished aInuse- ment for numbers of people

c. T. Lindsey, an oldtimer of Montana, Spokane and Alaska, died last Monday at Eleven-mile on his way out from the Premier where he had beeA working, and because of floods the body could not be brought to town but will be buried there. Mir. Lindsey was a well known pioneer, having come north in the early days of the gold excite ment, and engaging in mining and trading One of his more recent ventures was conducting a store in Candle. He first came to Hyder in May of last year and returned last spring. It is believed that he had no near relatives living. He was about 70 years old.

For good and sufficient reasons this day made to appear to me, it is ordered that the boundaries of the Hyder Recording and Commissioners Precinct established by the order of February 2, 1920, as amended by the order of May 1, 1920, be and they are now hereby established as follows, to-wit:
 Beginning at the intersection of the Unuk river and the international boun- dary line thence due south to the Seth parallel of north latitude, being about 23 1-2 miles; thence along said parallel due east to west longitude 130 degrees 30 minutes, being about 9miles; thence due south about AS miles to point due west of the northern-most point of Boca de Quadra Inlet; thence due east to the international boundary line in Port land Canal, to the place of beginning. IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that all previous orders heretofore made estab- fishing the precincts of Hyder and Ket- chikan are hereby annulled so far only as the said orders may conflict with this order.
 IT IS FURTHER ORDERED that one copy of this order be sent-to the United States Commissioners at .Hyder, and one copy to the United States Commissioner at Ketchikan; and that one copy be pub lished for four consecutive weeks in the Ketchikan Chronicle and one copy in the Hyder Alaska Miner.
 Done at Ketchikan this 24th day of May, 1920.

Wireless Equipment
 Is Now On the Way
 For Station In Hyder

That Hyder may expect to have a wireless station in operation with in two weeks is the good news given by LA. Hall, president of the Hyder Townsite and Improvement Com- pany, who are installing the plant. The machinery, in charge of a wire less expert, left Seattle August 5 according to telegraphic advice, and just missed the Prince of Wales on that boats last trip from Ketchikan
 When the Algonquin was in port she was in wireless communication with Seattle, using a two-kilowat generator. which is the size ordered for this place. Just where the site will be cannot be told. This poirt will be determined by the install ing expert when he arrives.
 This will be an improvement of inestimable value to the commun- ity and the surrounding miHes. Up to the present residents OF beth sides of the line have been entire y dependent on the Canadian govern ment telegraph line at Stewart which is out of commission large part of the time. Continued effort by tho IIyucr OuuIIietCldl AoouCIa~ tion to have the US. government install wireless secured nothing but evasions, so the toWnsite con- pany took the matter into their own hands.

Communication

A hot case is now on tap before the Commissioner. The piled area, comprising the main business dis trict of Hyder, being sorely in need of improved streets, fire protection, water supply and sanitation, have filed the necessary petition with the Commissioner asking to be incor- porated under the name of "Hyder" as a city of the second class, as pro- vided by law, for the purpose of raising the funds by taxation, nec- essary for the preservation of their comfort, health and property.
 The Hyder Townsite and Im- provement Co.,, owners of the Lin debopg homestead, now plated into lots and blocks, adjoining the limits of the proposed city, but not includ- ed therein. are opposed to the scheme. Under the present sys- tenn they are not subject to taxa tion on the large amount of unpro- ductive property under their con trol, for the improvement of streets etc, and if the town is incorporated under the name of "Hyder" they become a suburb without the name of "Hyber," a distinction that they very much desire. In other words, they don't want to pay any taxes for necessary Improvements nor permit anyone else to do so. The story of the dog in the manager is decidedly applicable to their stand in the matter.
 The law is very clear on the sub- ject. Whenever fifteen residents within certain described area con- taining fifty or more people file a petition asking to be incorporated as a city of the second class, the law makes it the duty of the com missioner to call an election for
