DAN SUTHERLAND ATTACKS TWO
 STEAMSHIP COMPANIES IN THE
 ALASKA BUSINESS; HIS CHARGES
(Contirued From Page One)

paEy. T was shown the dispatch received by The Empire just after I nd finished examining the mani ests of the Admiral Watson which
 rriyed last evening. For example, his vessel on her present trip left Seattle with 129 tons of freight and 28 passengers, two of them children representing to the company gross revenue of approximately $3,500. By the time she reached Juneau she was running at a dead loss to the com pany.
 Quotes Comparative Rates.
 Mir. Kline quoted from tariff sheets Of the company showing rates between Seattle and Alaska and Se- attic and San Francisco The pas senger rate from Seattle to Juneau is $35 while from Seattle to San Francisco it is $40. The service is the same, but the mileage is almost leo miles less from Seattle to San Francisco than it is from Seattle to Juneau," he declared The same prcportionatc difference, he added, exists in freight rates.
 Remedy in Shipping Board.
 The remedy for an unjust dis criminati0n, whether in freight or passenger rates, or in service" said Mf. Kline, lis within the power of the United States Shipping Board. It is within the knowledge of AL
 
 lodged against Alaskan shipping companies within the last year in connection with alleged unjust freight tariffs on paper pulp. After hearing the Shipping Board found the charges to be without founda- effective was adjudged fair. Prior to that time there were other investi- cations, by the Interstate Commerce Commission and the Territorial Ship ping Board at which shippers were given every opportunity for making specific complaints yet at no time has there been any substantiation of wild charges such as those Dele-l gate Sutherland is reported to have made If the Delegate has any evil donee tending to show unjust treat ment of Alaskan shippers by steam ship companies, the proper place to, file it for securing redress is with the Shipping Board and not in Con- gress."
 Mir. Kline intimated the fact that the Delegates brief was put in the Congressional Record and not filed formally with the Shipping Board isl convincing proof that it is merely intended as political propaganda to- aid MT. Sutherland in his coming campaign for renomination and re- election rather than in the hope of accomplishing anything material He said that he had been informed that as late as the middle of December member of the Shipping Board had informed the House Committee on Territories that the Board had no complaints before it relative to the Alaskan shipping question:.

CHICAGO, April 22.-The barefoot
boy who used to play hockey from
school and get into the circus by
carrying water for the elephants or
slipping past the watchful guards is
being replaced by the carefully
dressed youngster who goes to the
"scintillating, spectacular. stupen-
dous performances" with his teacher
and walks boldly in through the main
entrance as the homogeneous guest,
his admission being entirely free.
The change bringing free admis-
sion TO boys started through CO.
operative arrangements between cir
Gus managements and leaders in boys
welfare work. who wanted to give
the under privileged lad a little
pleasure. Now it is spreading so that
not only the poor boy, dependent on
public charity, but the average school
youngster, can get an .'eyefui' OF
elephants. lions, tigers. clowns and
acrobats free. for thousands of kid
dies now are being supplied with free
circus tickets.
The new scheme started in Chicago,
when Hull House. Gads Hill Center
and other boys settlement homes ap-
peaied to the Sells F'loto circus Il year
or so ago to let their boys in free

BOYS NOW NEED NOT CARRY WATER
FOR ELEPHANTS TO SEE THE CIRCUS

The request was granted readily and
the arrangement repeated each year.
Then the circus management de-
cided to extened the plan to the
schools. and large groups of children
were invited each day. Accompanied
by the teachers. they came by the
hundreds. During its two weeks stay
here the management of this circus
gave away several thousand tickets
to children, and, most remarkable of
all. found that giving away tickets
to kids was a money-making propost-
ton in the long run, for the boy of
today proved to be the grown-up cir
Gus fan" of tomorrow.
One of the leaders in the movement
to give the youngsters free view~of
the circus was Allan Carpenter. di-
rector of the Boys Club at Hull
House here. Mr.. Carpenter, in his
work with youngsters who had no
home of their own. found that one
of their greatest needs was recrea-
ton of type which would take their
minds off the daily routine of life.
I'VE believed a trip to the circus
would be a splendid thing for them,
but we had no money for such
things" he said. when the kids
came back from their matinee they
were in ecstasy. They didn't quit
talking about it for weeks and were
full of pep and life. We are going
to extend our work and try to arrange
for more pleasure for them

Clever designers are making much OF
ribbons, as well as embroideries and braids,
using them for many purposes hitherto I'M
heard of. Some of the loveliest of the new
girdles are composed of patches Of ribbon
appliqued upon backgrounds of various
silks and satins. Unusual, as far as belts
go, is a design If wooden braid, appliqued
with satin ribbon in gay colors. This now

The spirit Of youth is expressed in every
tint and design OF the newest cottons,
which are particularly handsome. And
when they are fashioned into frocks built
upon long, graceful lines, their charm is
irresistible.

ANIMAL PETS in ENGAGING
PLATFORMS FOR THE NURSERY
Peter Rabbit, Fido and Puss Serve as Models for
Unusually Attractive Toys
BY Mona MULLEN

IF Polly Pigtail, the rag doll, gets
4 punished nowadays for sulking, she
has perfectly legitimate reason
for doing so, for rivals have appeared
upon the horizon Of the play-world
which seriously threaten her popular
ity. Who would not sulk and feel
honest-to-goodness offended, II puppy
dog, bunny, or kitty-cat replaced
one M the affections Of ones little
master or mistress as pet9 So, while
no one blames Polly Pigtail for her
green-eyed jealousy, every one smiles
secretly when favor is shown to the
newest rag-dolls in the form of animals.
Peter Rabbit, who Is illustrated in
the group, measures 6H by IS inches.
Fldo measures II by IL inches and
Puss 016 by lOs4 inches. Puss may be
worked favorably on white, black, gray
or yellow material. On white or yellow,
the eyes should be green and black, and
the nose pink. On gray or black, the
eyes should be brown and green. Two
strands of each color are used in the
needle at the same time. The nose Is

worked In black. For Fido, tan OF
white material is appropriate. Peter
Rabbit looks especially well on firm
white and tan fabrics. II tan is used,
the outlining should be done in brown
and black cotton. Shoe-buttons may
be used for the eyes, and they must be
sewed firmly, the shank Of the button
being deeply embedded into the ma
terial. These animals may be stuffed
with clean, small bits of rags, cotton
batting, bran or saw-dust.
Any color cotton or linen may be
used for the animals. but care should
be taken that the colors are always Of
fast dye. If one can not be protected
by such a guarantee, then Il Is best to
use white exclusively.
Peter Rabbit should not be dressed
up in his coat until the stuffing is all
completed. His tail is stamped to his
back after the front and back are sewed
together and embroidered. To the
coat pearl button should be
added on one side and a buttonhole or
cotton loop on the other.
