R. c. Wooding and Ernest Strom Win Second and Third, Respectively, This Week.

Several hundred persons submitted
 posed to have been used by the char acters whose pictures were printed in
 this weeks Missing Dialogue" con
 test. An oddity of the contest was
 the number who seemed to think that
 the conversation between the fat man and the thin individual, with a pro-
 fessional appearance, had to do with moonshine or prescriptions for some of the pre-Vostead stuff. The Dia- logue Editor was under the impress sion that the humor of the situation lay in the difference in physical ap- pearance between the individual who seemed to be at the doctors and the physician who was attending him. Therefore, he awarded his prizes on this basis.
 Mrs. M. A. McKean, of 100 Daily avenue, city. has what was, in our opinion, the best solution to offer. She will be awarded the first prize of $500. R. A. Wooding. of 259 Main street, was the secoad best hu- morist. for which he receives $500 and Ernest Strom, of Sexton Drive ran him close second. he to receive the third prize of $2.00.
 Mrs. Mckean'ss answer to the prob lem of what are they saying?" was as follows: Doctor-"You will have to change your diet to reduce your weight" Patient-"All right, Doctor, I will come to board with you" MT. Wooding has this to submit: Doctor ''Um, high blood pressure, hardening of the arteries, fatty degeneration of the heart. My dear, you must eat less, the grave is yawning for you" let Ter yawn, in my case, at least, there is something to vawn for" The third prize winner was:.

 nially planned. This comprised the
 entire list turned over by the New
 Britain Welfare association and two additional families. A few dollars
 were left over. as was considerable

 Tomorrow morning Mrs, Harriet Luella Mccollum will address the class and will tell the men "The Psychology of Permanent Success" officers of the class expect ono of the largest audiences the class ever has seen,
 An Everyman's Bible Glass night is being planned, or is under considera- ton at the Yi M. c. A., and 1t is ex- pected plans will be discussed at a meeting of the executive committee some time in the near future. The committee probably will meet next Tuesday, but 1t is not known wheth- CT this proposition will be discussed at that time or not.
 The proposition Is to have an Ev- eryman's Bible Class night, on the same principle as the regular church night. now being held. One night will be allotted to the class, providing itl is decided Co go ahead, the same as one night now Is allotted to each local church.
 In case the Bible Glass decides to have celebration, plans very likely l will be in the hands of S. M. Brew ster, who is chairman of the enter tainment committee. and Joseph | physical director of the ' Y. M. c. A. who is chairman of the athletic committed.

GARBAGE COMPLAINT,
Board of Health Will Investigate Re-

Complaint was made today to the
Board of Health about the alleged
failure TO collect garbage in the west
ern section of the Ninth ward. 1t was
claimed that the collections are made
there about once a week or once in
ten days instead of three times a week
as is required. The health officials will
investigate the case and correct any
deficiencies found.
The foundation was laid this morn
ing for the three furnaces in the new
Davis plant the city is having built
at the foot of Liberty street. The
| foundations for the stack are al
ready in. The walls are up and the
! roof is being put on. The plant will
be ready for use about the middle of

consuming on an average of as tons
of wrapped garbage a day. This is

present, and it is no longer necessary

ALASKA OPEN TO AUTOS.
Completed Highways viii Make
Touring Possible and Agree
able There.

Seattle, Wash, April 3O.-Auto-
mobile travel in Alaska, an Impossi-
bility TO any extent in the past, will
this summer be a popular tourist at
traction because of completed highways.
The road from Valdez, at tide water,
to Fairbanks is $40 miles long. Gov
ernment owned and kept in perfect
condition by constant working. The
scenic attractions along this highway
cannot be surpassed in the States be-
cause of their "newness" and the
wildness of the surrounding regins.
Over mountains that tower thou
sands of feet above the motOrist,
through weather worn canyons hous-
ing roaring streams of glacial water
and into dense forests which prove a
welcome relief from the hot rays of
the long days sun, the most northerly
improved boulevard winds its crooked
way.
1t intervals along the route the
tourist comes upon q typical Alaska
roadhouse, the cabin Of Robert Service
and those of other writers Of '9S. The
rough and ready loghouse shelter has
not yet disappeared from the interior.
and at these stopping places the trav-
ellers will find atmosphere galore.
Big touring cars may be hired to<
| the entire trip and return, or sight
seers may ship their own cars from
here to Valdez by steamer. Arrange
ments have been completed so that
practically every Alaska steamer car
ries automobiles TO and from the
north.
Many side trips can be made by au-
tomobile from the main artery OF
travel on good roads which are being
rapidly widened and improved.
