Companies Operate In Spite of En-
 gineer Strike

Seattle, June 16.-Pointing to q record of 32 sailings from Puget Sound, Columbia River and Califor- mia ports during May or better than sailing a day, A. F. Haines, vice president and general manager of the Pacific Steamship Company, de- clares that there is no maciue strike, so far as the Admiral Line is con- cerned, as the close of May found the service 90 per cent. normal, with vessels operated by independent crews, and men being recruited rap idly to fill the comnlements of the few remaining vessels.
 The Puget SounI-CalifOrnia seIv- ice has been fully restored on the regular sailing dates and full Alaska service also provided with the schcd- uled sailings o5 tho City of Seattle on June II and the Admiral Watson on June fl for Alaska points, while the Portland-California service is be- ing resumed with sailing of the Ad- miral Evans from Sal Francisco June 6. The Cross Keys got away from Satttle for the Orient on Jure 2. Since the publication of the pledge of the United States Shipping Board and the Stolmchip Associa- tions, that they would pro ,ct in their employment all who stuck by them during the strike, increasing numbers Of engineers nave been ap- plying for employment, enabling the operators to get thelr ships out. as it was the lack of engineers alone which tied up vessels at he begin ming of the strike.
 Carrying 1000 tens of cargo and big list of eXcursionists, the |. s. Shipping Board steamship, Silver State, allocated to the Admiral Line for operation in the Puget Sound Oriental service. sailed from New York June 4 for Seattle. scheduled to make the sIrir stops as did her sister ship, the Weuatcher. al Hav- ana, Panama canal, San Pedro. and San Francisco, arriving ill PIgGt Sound June 25; she will sail for the Orient on July g.
 Tine Silver State averaged iS.5 knots on her trial trip. Admiral Line officials state that she is superior to the Wenatchee in fi,riusa aIi ap- pointments.
 The Keystone State. second to be finished of the five Shipping Beard vessels allOcated to the Admiral Line is on her way from New :ork to Seattle in ballast, having been sent without cargo and passengers to sub stitute for the Wenatchee in the sail ing for the Orient from Seattle. scheduled for June IS.
 On account of the defects deyel- oped on her run to the Orient, the Wenatchee will be laid up, on her arrival at Seattle for thirty days and given q thorough overhauling. De- fective ventilation in some parts of the vessel will be corrected and the Wenatchee will be m perfect condi- tion when she resumes her run on July SOth.
 No drawbacks are expected in the operation of the other 535's as such defects as were shown by the type by the operation Of the Wenatchee have been corrected in the other ves- sels in building.
 The arrival of the steamships Sil- yer State and Keystone State at Se- attle will give the Admiral Line three vessels for operation in their new trans-Pacific service. This will be augmented upon their completion by two additional sister ships.

INDUSTRY WILL BE
 DEVELOPED THRU SEATTLE

Carl Lomen of Nome, whose com pany is the pioneer firm in exporting Alaska reindeer meat from the Ter ritory. announced that arrangements are being made with the port com- mission whereby Seattle will become the distributing center for ell car casses sent from Nome, and that this city instead of Minneapolis will be the point from which the meat will be sent for national consumption. At the present time the meat is brought to Seattle in refrigerated space Of the Alaska Steamship company, but distributed from Minneapolis.
 Mr.Lomen said the Alaska rein deer herd has grown from the 1,2SO Siberian reindeer used as the basis of the herd to 250,900 exclusive of the hundred thousand butchered for meat and for hides.
 "The development of markets for this meat means livelihood for peo- pie in Northern Alaska, both white and natives, and as it grows Seattle will benefit proportionately," said Mir. Lomen. 'In 1905 there 1000 animals, in 1915 there were 7O,OOO there are now 25O,OOO and govern ment estimates show that in 1880 the Alaska herd will reach 100000 which will be double that of the pres ent herds of Norway, Sweden and Finland.-EX.

RaveI Out Passe Garments, Cleanse
Wool and Make New Articles
for Cold Weather.

A well-made worsted sweater will
last years and years; but styles In
sweaters change rapidly nowadays
and long before the garment you knit
ted with infinite pains has worn out,
its lines and style have become passe.
1t Is always pity to waste good wool,
and In half morning you can ravel
out the passe garment, rewind the
wool. and make ready to start a new
sweater. Or you can turn your old
sweater into a scarf or a pretty bed
jacket.
Do not attempt to knit the new
sweater until you have soaked the
worsted to get the kink out of it.
Crinkled-up worsted will not make a
smooth, beautiful knitted surface and
it pays to prepare your worsted care
fully before you start. AS you ravel
out the wool, wind it over chairback
to make q good-sized skein; and make
always a pity to break or knot
worsted. Be sure and tie the skein
firmly at both ends with a bit Of
worsted or white string. If you do
not do this you may get into sad
snarl with your wet wool.
Lay the skein in a basin of tepid
water; press il down well until IL is
thoroughly wet; then squeeze out the
water and hang the skein to dry In
the open cir but never in st""ny
sunshine. Cut away tie tied string
at the lower end Of the hanging skein
and loosen the strands of worSted. to
hasten the drying process. Your
worsted will dry overnight. or N a

Reaction in Maine From War
Boom Sends Lumber Prices
Down Toward Normal.
TWO men FOR EVERY JOB
Home Builders Will Rejoice, but Pulp

Employers Now Can Get Their
Pick of Men.

Bangor.-The day of fabulous wages
for woodsmen is past, and instead OF
jobs hunting men-men of any KIND
at almost any price-the hunting Is
now done by the men, for there are
at least two of them to one job. Every
day now, the sidewalks of lower Tx
change and Washington streets are
~anged with woodsmen, waiting for
lething to turn up, and the employ
-aent agents are having their pick OF
the men at prices not more than half
those paid a year ago.
In olden times : the best Of native
.woodsmen were glad when November
came around and long winter faced
them, to get S16 to $50 a month to go
into the woods, walking most of the
80 to 100 miles from Bangor to the
scene of operations with their bags
on their backs, and satisfied with
bunk in q log house and a diet COM
posed chiefly of pork and beans. They
went to work at the first streak of
dawn and kept at it as long as they
could see q tree.
wages w SiS GO"'
In that day the price of spruce
stumpage (the right to cut) was SIPS
to 81 per thousand feet and very lib
eral scale at that. The men who drove
the logs down the boom got $1.75 to
$3.50 a day, and they were experts,
every one. The rafters at Bangor,
the overhaulers, the sawmill men and
everybody else who touched the log
or the lumber worked long hours at
low wages-the sawmill men from
dawn to dusk for $50 a month and
: board. Vessels carried the lumber
from Bangor to Boston for as little
as SIPS per thousand feet, seldom
more than $1.75; to Long Island ports
for so cents more and to New York
for 1925 to S2.75.
On this basis of cost of production
estimating the price of the logs in
boom at Sc to 50 per thousand feet
for hemlock and $40 to $13 for
spruce, lumber was so cheap that al
most anyone could afford to build a
house and mechanics in Bangor and
the towns along the river improved
the opportunity of cheap lumber and
cheap land to get homes for them
selves.
Today everything is very different.
There had been a gradual increase be-
fore the war of stumpage rates, wages
and other costs, and lumber was costly
enough when the war came on, largely
through the advent of the pulp mills,
which from small beginnings in the
eighties increased their field and scope
of operations until in 1915 they owned
most of the desirable timber lands
and were eating up rather more than
half of the SOC, 100000 feet of spruce
cut in the state.

Some of these pieceworkers made as

Blouse Popular.

The popular jumper dress has Gre
ated an unusual demand for the net
guimpe blouse, and many Of the shops
are featuring extensive displays where
women can pick up pretty models at
exceptionally low prices. Among
these the round collar seems to be
prominent and it Is quite noticeable
that these btouses and guimpes are
cut higher at the neck than we have
worn them for some time. This may
be a forerunner of the high neck
closing that have been accepted by
Paris and will, in all probability, soon
be adopted by us, not because we like
it, but because we must be in style.

Styles for Stout, Short, Slender
and Other Types.
Stiff Monotonous Edge Not Becoming
to Many Persons-Headgear for
the Children.

When choosing a hat consider well
the following points:
A stout woman, generally speaking,
must wear a wider brim than the
slender one, since width in the brim
and height in the crown will tend
to overbalance rOundness of the face.
The short, slender woman with a
small face should almost never wear
a hat with a brim averaging more
than three to three and half inches
in width
The long-faced woman, especially
If she is tall, should avoid the tall
crowned or tall trimmed hat. She
may, however, wear a wider brimmed
hat than the short. slender woman.
The tall stout woman Is often stun
ming in large brimmed hat, because
her height makes it possible for her
to wear a hat which would make the
short, stout woman appear grotesque.
Hats with mushroom brims belong
entirely to youth. Downward turning
lines in the face are not desirable, and
should therefore not be emphasized by
downward turning lines in brims or
hats.
For the person who wears glasses,
hard lines and edges in hats should
be studiously avoided. An edge may
be softened by a bias fold, ribbon
slightly fulled, Or band of fur.
A hat with a stiff monotonous edge
Is not likely to be becoming to many
persons, especially to those who are
no longer young.
The most successful child's hat Is
the soft, pliable kind which may be
pulled down on the head and sub
jected to more or less rough treat
ment without very materially injur-
ing it's looks and wearing qualities.
