ALASKA DINNER MAY BE FEATURE
 OF PRESS MEET
Washington Press Institute Suggests Featuring Food
 Products of North.

Proposing to feature an AlasKa products dinner at the next annual Press Institute of Washington, Janu- ary, 1922, M. L. Spencer, Director of the School of Journalism Of the University of Washington, has asked the Juneau Commercial Association for cooperation in making the pro ject a success if it materializes, ac- cording to a statement made today by Secretary M. s. Whittier, Of the Association. Director Spencer states that much beneficial publicity would be derived from the dinner to the Territory.
 The Press Institute meetings at tract newspapers men from all over the State of Washington and other Northwestern States. One Of the biggest features at the last lnsti- ute, held in January of this year, was Northwestern Products dinner.
 MT. Spencer says that he got the idea of the Alaska dinner from that incident He stated:
 AS to the dinner, l had in mind making it sufficiently unique to make it noteworthy over the country For example, if we might serve reindeer meat or caribou meat, or both-if they are different-that itself would draw numbers of Wash ington newspaper men and make the story interesting on the Associated Press wires. In addition, if we might serve bread made from wheat grown in Alaska, and strawberries, blue berries and things like that canned, preserved or otherwise mere mention of these in press re- ports would give people in the United States an entirely new idea of the fertile fields of Alaska
 Ignorance Prevails.
 Gross Ignorance regarding the Territory largely prevails over the entire country, according to MT. Spencer who said: You have no idea how ignorant the average Am erican is about his Alaska neighbor. And I cannot conceive of the Ter ritory receiving more publicity or better advertising on so small an outlay of money.
 At the Northwest products din ner last January something like 175 were present If you want to make the Alaska products dinner and draw in more newspaper men we might be able to extend this num- Der to 250.'
 In addition to taking the matter up with the local Association MT. Spnecer has also written the Fair banks Commercial Club and is in touch with the Alaska Bureau of the Seattle Chamber of Commerce.
 Personally, I believe the sugges- tion is well worth considering" said Secretary Whittier, commenting on the proposal for an Alaska products dinner "A dinner such as could be gotten up from Alaska meats, fruits, vegetables, etc., and set before 250 newspaper men would undoubtedly get wide publicity" MT. Whittier is with Mr Spencer re- garding the matter and the subject will probably be taken up at the regular meeting of the local Com mercial Association at the Alaska Grill tomorrow

An Authority on all the Problems
of Love and Marriage.
AYOWADAYS we're always read
IN ing about the neglectful
mother. We hear a lot about
the mothers of yesterday, who
baked and sewed and managed the
household and brought up the chill
dren and lived simple. retired and
retiring lives. And then we're Of
fered a sad contrast in descriptions
of the mothers OF today. jazxing
about and trying to look younger
than their daughters.
There's something in both pic
tures-and not too much of truth
in the contrast,
Motherhood always was and ever
will be the one biggest, finest and
most sacred expression of woman
hood. None of the splendid careers
to which womanhood today is dedi-
eating itself can surpass the simple,
normal career which nature first i'm
posed on woman.
A passion of unselfish and self
less devotion-thats motherhood.
Sweetness and warmth and gem
frosity, coupled with an utter
sacrifice of self-that's motherhood.
Let's not generalize about the
woman of today and sneer because
we read of so many who sacrifice
their heritage of nobility for the
pleasure of the moment. It's only
the different" thing that is news.
Heroism seldom has a chance to
express itself in the glowing fash
ion given to the mother of whom
we just spoke. Generally it's just
the sacrifice and hum drum round
Of every day.
Wearing a shabby suit that Bes-
sic may have new one, giving
Johnny the last piece OF apple pie,
letting Molly play lady" in moth
er's best hat-these are the simple
ways motherhood still expresses
itself today.
The wanton who shoots her part
ner in evil, the thief who steals to
deck herself gayly, the silly fool
who marries three or four men and
ruins them all don't express woman
hood today. They express an ugly
phase of it, But The mother who
lives for her children and her home
expresses the normal woman
heart as it was in 1s21-and is in
1921!
