When the residents and newspapers of some towns feel 1t incumbent to do little boosting for their spectiYe communities Cordova has gradually forged ahead until it is of the largest most sub stantia and most prosperous towns in Alaska.

Why We Have Casualty
 Insurance Companies Vivid Facts That Startle!

Every minute twenty-one per sons are accidentally injured.
 Every five minutes one person is accidentally killed. Over H. GOO 900 persons are killed or in- jured yearly, about 30,000 each day Five times as many per sons are killed and injured each year as die from natural causes.
 More people are kept from work by accidental injury than are idle from lack of employment. One death in every twelve is due to accidental causes
 A person is twice as liable to die from accident as from old age
 Out of 20,000,000 cases of dis ability that occur each year only 5a6 are fatal. This means that life insurance covers 5R and ac- cident and sickness cover 95E6.

The New Dresses

Every spring occasion, every
individual taste and requirement
are happily remembered in this
assemblage Of new Frocks. The
straight line type is still popular
with the addition this season of,
the more fitted lines as shown
in several of our afternoon and
evening dresses. The fuller hip
line is noted in many delightful
variations by the clever use of
pleatings and rufflings, or by the
effective draping of materials.
Waists are fitted and skirts are
shorter and fuller-with much
thought given to individuality in
styles. Several frocks are shown
in the ever-popular Crepe Geor-
gette and Satins, richly embroid-
cred.

Skirts

That the separate skirt will be
more popular this Spring than
ever is evident not only because
it is approved by the Fashion and
is in high favor with smartly
dressed women, but because of
the attractiveness of the styles
shown. Styles and materials are
exceptionally pretty.
Dainty silks and woolens in
hobby stripe and plaid patterns
fashioned in plain or draped
models or with graceful pleated
tunics provide a wide range for
individual expression. All skirts
are shorter this season.

him; that ne belongs to no political
party, and that he will not affiliate
with any political party until he shall
have had chance to find out how each
stands on all the big issues; that the
party he joins must be in favor of the
ratification of the peace treaty with
reservations. Perhaps Mr.. Hoover ex-
poets all political parties to nominate
him without any opposition. Under
those conditions he might agree to let
himself be elected. The proposition is
