NEW GAME IS
 STARTED HERE;
 ALL DOIN' II
Canned Can Can Be Played by Everybody-Varlous
 Movements Explained.
Have you canned can?
 No, we'll then get busy

Have you canned can
 No, we'll then get busy.
 This "canned can" is one of the prettiest little games ever played. Here are the various movements, which nearly rival other movements fn sports:
 You spot the can, then one hop forward, one side sweep with a graceful downward movement Of the right hand, tight grasp on the can, then an equally graceful movement upwards, reverse on left foot and q fox trot movement to the nearest garbage can.
 You have now executed the canned can movement and started one little cleanup.
 You must remember this is "Clean up Week" as well as "Paint-up Week but cleanup" and the canned can movement Is practically the first steT in cleanup
 IL is surprising how many cans oil cans, milk cans, fruit cans. veg etable cans and just cans have ae cumulated around the promises in Juneau, slipped into corners of the yard, rolled under berry bushes of shrubbcry and done other queer stunts. These cans are going to slir into the garbage can, that is a fore gone conclusion, if citizens take al active interest in "Clean-up Week" But cans arc not the only un slightly objects accumulated
 You guess the rest of them and then find them and get them in a suitable receptacle to be hauled away

LETTER FROM MARY ALDEN
PRESCOTT TO HER son, JOHN
ALDEN PRESCOTT.

My Dear Son:
I confess l had the greatest pang
of my life when | read the enclosed
clipping announcing your coming
marriage to the daughter of some
family totally unknown to me.
I had always dreamed that my
son would be the first to confide to
his mother when he found a girl that
he would like to marry. 1t had been
one of my illusions that you would
bring the girl to me, your mother,
before you even asked the momentouS
question. You might have your i'm
pulsive choice confirmed by the ma
ture judgment of the mother who has
your best interests at heart.
The enclosed clipping was sent to
me by dear Priscilla Bradford, who is
visiting your third cousin, Mary AL
den, in Sharon.
Belongs to Smart Set
Priscilla writes that your fiancee,
Miss Hamilton, belongs to what is
called the smart set of Sharon. She
describes them as "a little coterie of
people who all have a good deal Of
money. which in most cases must
make up for a lack Of birth and
breeding"
She did not say that the Hamiltons

about n week later and tried to get me to

are one of these cases." and I
cannot bring myself to think that
they are, for surely a lineal descend
ant of John Alden could not select
a wife from those who by accident
of money only have become a part
of that more or less spurious class we
call American aristocracy.
l am grievously hurt, John, that
you have seen fit to let your mother
become aware Of this mOmenJous
event in your life through another.
Surely, after you, l am the one most
interested.
Priscilla said in her letter that you
probably had written me, for, ever
since Leslie what a queer name0
Hamilton lis she a descendant of that
Legitimate Alexander Hamilton who
fought a duel with Aaron Burr?) ar
rived home, there has been nothing
in the society columns of the news
papers except accounts of the parties
that have been given for her. and the
elaborate rousseau she is preparing.
Purchased Night Dress
She even sent me a clipping which
said that Miss Leslie Hamilton had
the replica of the wedding night dress
Of a recent royal bride. I cannot
bring myself to send that to a man,
even if that man be my sen.
I hope that Miss Hamilton's father
has properly avenged this insult to
his daughter ere this. upon the ed
itor Of this terrible newspaper.
/, John, up to this time. the women
of your family have always Irided
themselves that their names have ap-
peared in the newspapers only three
times, and then only with dignifed
reticence-once when they were born,
once when they were married and
once when they We're buried. I can
not get used to this blatant nOtoriety
with which the modern young woman
rushes into print. 1t seem ato go with
the paint and powder and vulgar
dressing which is affected by the
modern miss.
l was always in hope that when
the time came for you to choose a
wife, John. your choice would fall
upon dear Priscilla Bradford. She
has all the characteristics that go
TO make up a good wife. You have
known her since YOU were children,
and she would supply that stability
Of character that am seriously afraid

Deserve Consideration
But, alas. mothers are not CON
