What Scott Bone Will
 Mean to Alaska

President Harding's nomination of MT, Scott (. Bone to be Govern or of the Territory of Alaska fore tells the beginning of the long hoped for 'opening up" of the great Northland. That the present Administration is awake to the pos sibilities of Alaska, and in hearty sympathy with constructive pro- gram for that vast storehouse ot natural and potential wealth, has already been made apparent in news despatches from the National Cap- ital. In this connection it is perti- nent to quote Mr. Frank P. Goss, the Post-Intelligencer's Washing ton correspondent; Accompany. ing the formal announcement of the selection of MT. Bone was bio- graphical sketch of the nominee. .wtich contained a-sieniffcant state ment to the effect that he has had wide experience with the problem of newsprint paper and pulp, and he will be therefore especially val uable in connection with The Pres- ident's purpose to develop the wood pulp industry in Alaska to the full. est possible extent, in order that the newspapers of the country may not have again the disastrous ex- perience of paper shortage and ex- cessive prices. V" The Admin istration is just now engaged m a special study of the Alaska legisla- tive administrative needs with view to recognizing the federal administration in such way as to develop the territory by bringing to it new industry and new people.h
 MT. Bone is the best man Presi- dent Harding could have picked for what is likely to be, for the Pa citic Northwest, the most important appointment he will make. Mir. Bone knows Alaska, its people and
 its needs, and, what is the milk of the cocoanut, he will know how to make officialdom at Washington and the business interests of the country as a whole see Alaska in true perspective. As director of publicity for the National Republi- can Committee in the recent can- paign, he was close personal ad- visor of then Senator Harding, his long residence at Washington as editor of two of the capital city dailies gave him the closes. kind of insight into governmental affairs as actually conducted; few men have wider and more influential acquaint- anceships, or better understand the psychology of "getting things done." While in Seattle as editor of the Post-Intelligencer and chair man of the Alaska Bureau of the Chamber of Commerce he had the intimate personal touch thatrounds out his capability for the job of putting Alaska into the position rightfully hers but long denied by bureaucracy and a mistaken nation al idea of what Alaska really is.

It was the day before the Grand Prix,
and bright weather had drawn upon The
beach the record crowd of the season.
Miss Luana was stopping at the Royal
Hotel. and arraying herself for her bath
in her room. Covering herself with
gaudy, brightly colored bath robe, she
walked down through the gardens to the
beach.
Everything went we'll as long as her
bathing robe covered her, but when she
arrived near the waters edge and allowed
the gaily colored robe to fall from her
shoulders, there was a'spontaneous chorus
of "Ohs" and ABS coming either from
shock, surprise, or admiration, and a
crowd of gaping men and women immedi-
ately gathered about her. Miss Luana was
confused and embarrassed and sought to
escape from the curious throng by running
into the water.
The numerous tottering old roues, with
their ever-utilized field glasses, who are
as much a part of the Deauville beach
as the dried up crabs and jelly fish that
abound there, never seemed more ie-
lighted than they d with the spectacle
which Miss Luana presented. Chuckling
and contented, they brought their instru-
ments to their most perfect focus and
followed her through them wherever she
went. Several of them became forgetful
Of the incoming tide and found themselves
standing ankle deep in water as they
gazed on the American nymph.
But their pleasure was short-lived, for,
suddenly, there was blowing of horns
by the red flannel shirted life guards
the manner in which they give alarm
and excitement became general all along
the beach. Down from the board walk
came running two gendarmes, imperious
and imposing, and in their superior dig
nifty fairly exuding an air Of intense re-
spectability. They rushed down to the
water where Miss Luana had entered and
did not even stop there. Right in they

gan jabbering away their protestation In
French, which was all lost on Miss Luana,
who understood nothing.
Then, with that pantomime art in which
the French excel, they succeeded in telling
her that her bathing suit was cut down
too far in front and too low In the back
and she was not sufficiently covered on
the sides to allow her to battle at
Deauville
Miss Luana was forced to accept the
censorship of the custodians of the peace
and morals of Deauville as pronounced by
the two ferociously mustached officers
of the law. and reluctantly left the
water. followed by a crowd Of sympathetic
men, whose appreciative artistic sense did

Miss Irene Luana, an American Girl in a
Bathing Costume Which the French Police
Censored. Miss Luana Was the Only
Person During the Whole Gay Season
Suit Sufficiently Daring to Challenge the
Attention of the Amiable Deauville
Authorities.
Miss Luana had made a sensation any
how and had the sympathy of many men
who roundly denounced the police for sup
pressing anything so truly artistic.
Miss Luana was remarked at Deauville
before her bathing suit episode for having
attained the highest perfection in the
development of the "Deauville TAM a
vogue that was much in favor this year
at the French resort. The women seemed
to be in unconscious competition as to
which one would become the darkest
from the suns rays. The ballroom looked
at night more like an Indian harem than
a collection of white women. OF all the
dark-skinned beauties, Miss Luana was the
darkest.
The first night she arrived In Deauvilie
she appeared at the Casino In a black and
white gown, the back of which was not
low-there just wasn't any back and very
little more In front
The sensation created by Miss Luana
was all the greater on account Of her
deeply tanned skin. She is of the Oriental
type, having black, almond-shaped eyes
and hair so black that it seems to give
Off blush lustre. Her figure, so gener-
ously displayed, revealed a deep, golden
brown tan OF most unusual shade, the
lights falling upon 1t producing an rides

exclusiveness which formerly
distinguished it.
Royalty and title and men and women
of distinction were at Deauvflle during the
season, to be sure. But mingling with
them we're thousands Of parvenus and
nouveaux riches who boisterously shouted
their bets at the gambling tables. and
paraded their almost unadorned charms
on the sands.
II was understood that everything
went" at Deauville-that license and lib
erty we're unrestrained. 1t was, therefore,
heard with surprise that the bathing suit
worn by an American girl should have
been ruled off the beach. as already
mentioned.
The one-piece bathing costume is gen.
orally worn at all foreign seaside resorts
and is accepted by Europeans as a matter
Of course. Nothing unusual is thought OF
1t, but on the contrary, when some Ameri-
can woman enters the water, following the
American custom of wearing stockings, It
is a cause for scandal You can see the
French old ladies putting their heads to-
gether discussing what physical defect the
wearing Of the stockings is Intended &c
hide. The men look askance at the
wearer Of stockings and conjecture what
the imperfection may be that forces
woman to cover up her legs while bathing.
But while much is accepted in the way
of scanty bathing suits at foreign resorts,
there appears to be a limit to even the
French broadness of mind as to what %
true propriety And that limit was reach ed
at Deauville this Summer by an American
girl!
When Miss Luana tried to go Into the
water at the fashionable bathing hour,
with bathing costume that was only a
slight suggestion IF what It assumed to be,
the French authorities interfered for the
one and only time during the season.
Miss Luana is an original, Independent,
rather primitive type Of girl. She never
cared much for clothes any way, for she
is a lover Of nature and prefers to live
In what she thinks is the natural way.
She spends most Of her time shooting and
fishing in the wilds of Florida, where
there were no French police to control
the manner in which she pleased to attire
herself
She came to Deauville to enjoy herself,
not with any intention of appearing orr
ginal. To enjoy herself in the ocean she
required bathing suit which Appropriated
the manner In which she was accustomed
to take her baths when on her outings.
She designed a bathing suit which would
give her athletic body all the free play
and health-gtving sunshine she desired.
She was proud Of having accomplished all
this and having, at the same time, main-
tanned a discreet touch of modesty In
doing so. But the French police disillu-
stoned her!
