Oh. Joy!
Luke McLuke Says


 It has just about gotten so that a princess would rather have her calves frost-bitten than wear long legged union suits that make her ankles thick
 A fellow never appreciates his own sister until after he has married some other fellows sister.
 Even when a man knows that he isn't pretty he has sneaking idea that he is distinguished looking
 Some men enlist in the army to learning the meaning of discipline And other men get married and get the same results.
 A married woman's idea of a monu mental liar is some other married woman who is telling how much she trusts her husband.
 Publishers announce that Ameri cans have taken to reading serious books. The idea being, no doubt that the 17-year-olds have forsaken the passionate pifhe novels for good old Hayelock Ellis.
 Let any modern princess try on Cinderella's glass slipper and she will tell you that it is a mile too big for her.
 Even when man is so good on the administration, the home team or the weather, you can get him mad by mentioning near beer to him. Why is it that the man who treats his wife like 30 cents wants $30 000j if some other man happens to alien ate her affections? Even when a married man insists | that he does not believe in fairies | you can't get his wife to believe thd he isn't flirting with them when hC | is down town.
 If a boy could learn the things h' should know as fast as he can learl | the things he should not know It ,, would be through college by the time he is 16
 It is all right to pray for the thing' you would like to have. But it i! safer to get out and hustle for tht | things you have to have. No, Gladys. wearing straight ant narrow skirt will not enable you tt | walk in a straight and narrow way. When daughter is Is mother has | a fit every time she thinks tha | daughter might get married. Blu | when daughter is 26 mother has { ] fit every time she thinks that daugh ] ter might not get married.

Fuel Situation at Fairbanks
Fairbanks News-Miner)

Yesterday afternoon Engineer Browne of the All askan Engineering Commission met with the Fair banks Commercial Club talk the coal-supply situation There good attendance of mem bers and the matter gone into as thoroughly possible The result of the meeting is this:
 Nothing that has developed or is in sight war rants the Commission in laying rails across the ice at Nenana to deliver coal Fairbanks easier and cheaper CD because they haven't the rails easily available and (2) because they haven't the market for the coal because CD it isn't apparent from any thing known here to the Commission that coal can be landed here this Winter from Nenana at a price that will make it cheaper than wood to Fair banks fuel and @ because there is not apt be enough demand for said coal until the coal has demonstrated here that it is better and cheaper than wood.
 The Commission is in the business of railroad building and wants to keep building railroad un- til the road is completed, after which it will reach out for traffic any expense, that will be its business then. It wants to accommodate the people in the meantime, but cannot afford to do at the expense of the railroad construction. Which is reasonable.

Hoover Tells Europe To Work
Seattle Times ]

Seattle Tmes)
 The rd-headed common of Herbert Hoov is illustrated by his vigorous denunciation of plans for extending further government aid to Europe
 The world needs to get away from the notion of government help both internally and externally, he declares, and get back to work and business
 Hoover blunty takes issue with enthusiasts Of he Sir George Paish type, who are urging upon the United States the extension of billions of dollars in credits to Europe
 France and Great Britain, Hoover asserts, have hand sufficient foreign securities to their needs for commercial credits
 Italy, he says, help itself by demobilizing md getting back a peace-time basis.
 Future loans in his opinion, should be extended ;olely by private agencies in the United States to private agencies in Europe and should be based on strictly financial grounds.
 This is wise counsel. There altogether too many among good friends overseas who regard United States a gigantic Christmas tree, load with gifts only for the industrious, but for the idle and thrftless and the lazy.
 This view is shared in any single respect by the American people, who growing impatient in the face of constant appeals for assistance uttered on behalf of countries whose workers and weavers of fantastic, destructive economic dreams delib- erately "shirking the job' of reconstructon

THE SHOOT BILL SHOULD PASS

Senator Shoots bill permitting homestead en- tries coal oil and gas lands in Alaska ought to pass. There have been lands reserved account of the known presence of coal which have been so reserved for many years that suitable for agri- cultural purposes. The presence them of coal suitable for commercial purposes in quantity that would make their operation practicable may not be established for many years, never at all The bill would allow homesteaders to enter such lands and make them productive whenever they so desired The bill should pass. There lands in Alaska that would now be furnishing homes and employment for people that idle and may always remain idle if some such this is not passed the reservations abolished

HOW TO CLEANSE THE
PORES AND KEEP THE
SKIN CLEAR
For cleansing. your skin needs
an entirely different cream-a
cream with an oil base. Before
going to bed or whenever your
face has been especially ex-
posed to dust, rub some Ponds
Cold Cream into the pores of
your skin and wipe it off with
a soft cloth. 1t is amazing how
much dirt comes out. You will
get a new idea of how impor-
tant this cold cream cleansing
is. The formula for Ponds
Cold Cream was especially
worked out to supply just the
amount of oil required to give
it the highest possible cleansing
power.

HOW TO PROTECT THE SKIN FROM
COLD. WIND AND DUST

COLD, WIND AND DUST
Every hike, every motor trip you take. your
skin pays for. The cold dries it. The wind
robs it of all natural OIL The dust flies into
the pores and coarsens them. Then, the next
day your complexion is aorid. harsh. rough
altogether unlovely! You can protect your
poor skin from this punishment. Before going
out rub little Ponds Vanishing Cream into
your face neck and hands. At once it dis
appears. 1t can never come out again in
wrctched shine. for it is absolutely greaseless.
Now the wind and cold cannot dry or chap
your skim the dust cannot work into the pores.
Do this every time you go out Your skin will
stay SOFT smooth, lovely all winter.

HUMIDITY IN AIR CURRENTS
Observations Have Shown That Irri- gation Has Little Effect on Con-
 ditions of the Air.

"Irrgation has little to do with the humidity readings in any section." it is declared by J. H. Gordon. observer of the Arizona division of the wealth CT bureau Any rise of humidity read ings in the Phoenix station is due, he states, simply to increase of rainfall. During the past ten years there has been increase in rainfall at different points ranging from II to go per cent. Most of the humidity comes in air cur rents from the Gulf of California. Yet the dryest point in Arizona is Ajo, mining camp on the desert, nearest of all points to the gulf. Somewhat less dry are Yuma and Phoenix. while the greatest absolute content of moisture by cubic measure is in Tucson. While Phoenix is in the midst of a great ir rigated valley, the influence of irrga- ton upon her climate is pronounced immaterial
 Somewhat the same result was se- cured by the weather bureau in study ing problems of vaporatiOn, in con- nection with the formation of the Salton sea. in southern California No humidity influence could be found at stations established around the sea. while at Mecca, at the date farm, the seasons following the creation of the sea were the dryest ever registered. The dryest air uniformly has been found in the fOOthill region somewhat above the valleys.

 "Say!" comically whispered young Wade as they wheeled around at him. Here's where you kids ride on the band wagon! Sis told me to take up a bunch from the office and bring night. You know Sis!" he addressed Maybelle understandingly.
 "Certainly; did she tell you to in- vite me?" she asked.
 "Yes, she did She said to tell you to bring along your sign man."
 My what?" cried the girl.
 '"This guy here that answered my ad," commented Daniel complacently. "The ad, mean, that l put on card in your window when you were out"
 "What does the crazy kid mean?' Maybelle asked Tom. The young man seemed to see a new light breaking in the eastern part of his memory.
 "Why, he means, I guess, the print ed sign in your window which first at tracted my attention there and made me dream of you nights"
 Explain !' demanded the girl.
 Read it yourself" blatted Daniel, taking from his pocket worn but neatly-folded sheet of paper. May belle was astounded to zee printed in large letters:
