Many ome are adopting the
knickerbocker costume IF the Girl
Scouts. 1t is a practical and service
able garment and women find it
splendid for sports and all out-of-door
wear. One of the newest needs it
seems to fill. however. is that of the
work dress for the home woman. A
diminutive little mother discovered
this use for it once when wearing her
young daughters worn-out suit to
do her cleaning. She liked the idea
so we'll that she purchased three or
four for herself. or rather she pur-
chased one in khaki for herself and
had three or four pretty pink and
blue bingham ones made. Mother
worked around and scrubbed with her
skirt pinned up and when the door
bell rang she unbuttoned her skirt
and. 10. she was a modest mother in
a youthful regulation frock.
Pictured here is the usual style of
these garments. They may be made
of khaki or wool for sports wear. The
knickerbockers or boomers are stitch
ed below the hip line to the skirt and
when the scout exercises the skirt is
buttoned up to the belt.

was warmly greeted and made
to feel at home. The two children
were given their supper and then
put to bed, Talbot helping in the
process. Then we had dinner-a
well-cOoked, agreeable meal.
After dinner we talked about
many different things. incidentally,
Talbot told me he was gradually
laying for his home and expected
in three years to own it outright ex-
cept for a small permanent mort
gage.
1 knew he was earnin gonly $40
week, hardly more than half what
was making. And I was finding
it hard TO get along on my reduced
salary.
When I went up to my small but
cheerful room ] wondered how he
did 1t and how Mrs Talbot throve
so we'll on such hard work. Dot
found il difficult TO take care Of
one child and our apartment; it
seemed easy for Mrs. Talbot TO at
tend 20 two and manage the house
at the same time.
Yet Dot was more efficient than
Elaine. Leslie Virgins wife. who
didn't see how she could live with
out a butler and an automobile.
Why were the Talbots so happy ?
II wasn't merely that Talbot was
living within his income. I myself
had always done that. But Talbot
and his wife weren't pining their
hearts away for more money. though
they probably would have been glad
II he had gotten a raise
But they seemed to have sensed
one great truth about money. The

WATER POWER RIGHTS ON 26 STREAMS ASKED
 FOR BY NEW WORKERS

Twentysix streams are involved in gigantic water power project in the Sawtooth Mountains on Seward Peninsula, for which application has been made by the Saw Tooth Power Company, 9 Church Street. New York City, to the Federal Power Commission. Included in the streams for which a development permit is sought, are Reindeer, Bear, West End, Osborn, Grand Union, Drag, Smith and Pass Creeks, all of which are tributary to Pilgrim River
 Investigation of this project was started many years ago and much work was done in that connection by Acting Governor R. J. Sommers. who at that time was Nome en- gineer. The development of large total horsepower is contemplated by the interested parties who are un- derstood to have virtually unlimited capital at their disposal.
 The purpose is to furnish cheap power so that placer ground on the Peninsula now unavoidable by reason of l, high fuel costs, can be mined. There is vast body of such ground awaiting development.
