President Harding gave his lie
in public service Win not be in
vain.
Brighter days are in prospect for
safe and sane development Of that
result of the visits by President Hard
ing's party and the group Of con-
SresSmen.
This is coming not through any
general reorganization of the federal
machinery in Alaska, as has been rec
commended by important officials and
agencies of the government, or
through any pretentious program Of
legislation.
1t is coming through the easier and
more natural course of better admin
istrative understanding and co-opera-
ton.
Just before his death, when coming
out of Alaska. President Harding.
with the wonderful panorama Of
Alaskan resources and possibilities
still vividly visualized before his
minds eye. in a prepared utterance
fatly settled the bugaboo OF an
Alaskan "problem." He said:
"The problem Of Alaska has been
dinned into our ears a great deal at
Washington. Somehow in Alaska one
doesn't hear much Of 1t or feel acutely
conscious of it's existence. There has
been much misunderstanding, no little
Misrepresentation and some DISPOSE
ton to hysteria at times about Alaska.
There is no need for government man.
aged. federally paid for, hothouse de-
velopment. There Is no broad prob
lem Of Alaska, despite the insistence
on its existence"
Opposed ReorEanixa tiOn.
Right there President Harding put
his emphatic veto on the proposals for
a sweeping reorganiza tion-and Pres
ident Coolidge has let it be known
that he is heartily in accord with and
will do his utmost to further the
policies of the late and lamented
Harding.
President Harding. having made a
personal survey, did a great work
toward clearing the atmosphere for
healthy development in Alaska, freed
from the miasma Of political or
bureaucratic squabbling. by declaring
that the federal government policy in
Alaska is all right. that its problems
are purely economic and just about
the same as those Of any state.
President Harding's greatest con-
tribution to the future economic de-
velopment Of Alaska. probably, was
in engendering a better understand
ing and agreement to cooperate be-
tween the three members Of the cab
met whose duties include Alaskan
administration.
He took Secretaries Wallace OF
Agriculture. Work of the Interior and
Hoover of the Commerce departments

SEEKING FACTS ABOUT MON
Photographic Attempts to Determine
the Composition Of Strange
Area on II.

Curious results are obtained when
certain objects are photographed UNI
der different lights. For example,
plates Of landscape obtained by in
fra-red light give the sky as jet black
and trees and grass as white as snow.
Ultraviolet photographs or pictures
obtained through a quartz lens heay-
lily silvered on one side show white
garden flowers as quite black.
If the moons wilderness were due to
the presence of zinc oxide, then the
localities in which this substance was
present when photographed by ultra
violet rays would not appear white,
but black. This plan has been tried
In the case Of lunar photographs, and
In the nelghborhood Of the crater
Aristarchus 1t Is clearly shown that
there Is considerable area whereof
the surface material differs from that
In It's proximity.
In ordinary light this shows no
variation from the rest Of the surface,
but repeated photographs taken with
the quartz lens and silver lens prove
that some unsupported substance ex-
lists on that spot. The difficulty Is to
determine Its nature The only way
at present, 1t seems consists in photo
graphing different rocks until one Is
found that presents the same charac-
teristlcs as those Of this district Of
the moon. There have been unavall-
ingly tried lavas, volcanic debris and
minerals Of many kinds.--Washlngton

L.ttlna Out tho Evil spIrlta

The plgmy natives Of the Andanan
Islands, in the Bay Of Bengal, believe
that every child Is born with evil
spirits within him. so the mother,
every two or three month";, lets the
spirits escape through cuts which shs
nnlcts on the body Of the child. As
a result, all the men and women Of the
islands have their entire bodies Gov
cred with scars.
The women Of the Islands wear the
skulls Of their dead husbands a. lSving
souvenirs. when a man dies the little
people blow on his face to say good
by, bury him, and then desert the
camp In which they are living. After
several months they come back, diG up
the bones and wash them in the zen.
Finally, they hold dance In honor
of the dead mans skull, paint II with
red ocher and white clay, and give II
and the jawbones to the chief mourn
ers, who wear them about their nseks
on fiber strings, like huge stones on a
necklace-DetrOit News.

MAKES PICTURES OF WOOD
Artist Cuts Veneer and CLUES II to
Backing, and Then Yields u
In Press.

II is said that In Alsace there Is an
artist named Splndler who makes pic
lures with wood alone. Using woods
in the natural color, he constructs pic
turs Of great beauty. Each picture Is
made from a sketch. Then, with In
finite patience and care, the artist cuts
the veneer and Clues lt TO a pAeking
and then YIELDS 1t all In press.
Since the artist never uses anything
except wood In It's natural color, he
has to know great zeal ABOUT trees.

EVIDENCE TO SUPPORT CLAIM
Oldest Town In Great Britain
May Be True.

Tine average American tourist In
England is usually content to limit
his sightseeing to those historic spots
which the guide books have made
familiar, writes Adelaide Bragg Gil
lespie in Travel, without ever reallz-
Ing that there are many places Of
historic interest and actual beauty not
far from the beaten track, which more
than repay the adventurer who
strikes Off bodily from the popular
itineraries Comparatively few trav-
elers, for example, explore the beau
ties Of Essex, yet this is really
charming country that Is rich in
quaint and ancient towns and vii
lagos.
And the tOuchstone Of Essex Is
Colchester, only so miles from Lon
don, and easily accessible by motor or
by train. From the standpoint of
tourist, historian, archeologist, and
antsquary alike, Colchester is the
most important town Of its county
and day, or many days, may pleas
urably and probably be spent In Wis
iting Its treasures. For Colchester
makes the unique claim Of being the
oldest town In Great Britain, and as
the relies and remains Of its various
Inhabitants date back to Paleollthlc
and Neollthic times we shall not dis
pute the claim.

COSMETICS AS A NECESSITY
Business Experts See Big Possibilities
In This Field In the Next
Few Years.

Many retail business experts be-
lleve that cosmetics comprise one Of
the least-worked fields of daily COM
merce-proportionate to the possiblll-
ties, says The Nations Business. They
expect that the Increase of the amount
of rouge and perfumes used In the
next few years win be more than the
Increase of any other everyday ar.
ticle.
Thirty years ago, or even less, while
there was no serious objection II a
woman used n dash of perfume, It was
regarded as wasteful and extravagant
If she paid high price for 1t. Using
rouge, Of course, placed her beyond
the pale. Today not only Is rouge
permissible, but the better grades Of
perfume have come In the minds Of
many people to be less of luxury
than an everyday requirement.
The modern Idea seems to be that If
we may have good music to please the
auditory sense and cultivate beauty to
please our vision, II Is no less proper
to add to the Joy of life through the
olfaetory sense. The shop girl earn
Ing as little as $15 week Is willing to
darn the heels Of her stockings and
wash them out each night, that she
may pay 81 an ounce for perfume
and she does so without feeling that
she Is extravagant.
Notwithstanding the widespread use
of perfumes In all forms, TIE sole is
still comparatively small. For that
matter even preparations for cleans
Ing the teeth are far less used than
people generally imagine. According
to investigations by different manu-
facturers, at least 60 per cent OF the
population use no dental preparations
whatever. Indeed, some Investigators
place this number as high as 81 per
cent Small wonder, then. Il Widely
advertised dentlfrices and tooth
brushes make 80 little impression on
the population, that there Is big un.
touched field for perfumery.
