Alaska takes pride and Juneau Is glad that it's ad- vntages apparent 10 the Secretary of the h. teriOr Alaskans take pride in all of their towns which have grown a result of the partial deyel- opment of the Territory None anywhere, as far as we know, and certainly in Juneau, enyious of the growth of any other place in Alaska.
 However, there is part of Alaska which offers so much hope for quick growth Southeastern All aska. The best opportunity for rapid growth foI Alaska lies in the development of the pulp and paper possibilities of this section of the Territory. With that industry developed there would be employment for 10000 50000 people in connection with il and that would several times that number added to the population.
 There is every to believe that the begin ming of the development of the pulp and paper in- dustry will not be long delayed. and with the be- ginning of the development additions to popula ton will also begin The population will gain n ratio with the speed with which pulp and paper makers take advantage of the opportunities that are offered here.
 However, it would not make Juneauites at all onvious if any other section of Alaska develop an industry discover resources which would cause 1t to grow faster than Southeastern Alaska While the First Division is of her position, she is hopeful that all other portions of Alaska may grow and prosper equally well better.

Alaska's Future.
Seattle Times. }

Seattle
 President Harding has completed important part of his long and is his way south. He leaves Alaska with the firm determination to do his utmost to promote the growth and development of the Northland.
 The two weeks visit in the Territory has given the President opportunity study its problems and to estimate it's marvellous possibilities He has clearly indicated in all his public and private utter ances that he believes in the future of Alaska and is disposed to be the friend and advocate of the vast northern empire.
 In expressing his genuine regret at leaving Alaska, the President said to the people of sitka: We have come under the lure of Alaska We go away with fine impressions and with many sugges- tons which hope will be helpful to you and to your government Alaska is great and glorious part of the American Union, and hope for the ultimate de- velopment to bring into full sisterhood"
 The two weeks spent by the President and his party in Alaska have focused public attention the Norand as nothing else could have done. There has been brought about better understanding throughout the United States of Alaska of it's needs and of is potential wealth. Many mistaken ideas have been dspeed by the favorable publicity the people of the country, well Cabinet officers and Ccngressmen able to speak of the Terriotry precise knowledge This familiarity with Alaska will be of inestimable value when plans formulated for the advancement of it's interests
 It is not expected. Is it desirable that the development the Northland should be promoted by an artificial boom. Unless another bonanza gold field is discovered Aaskas growth will be steady but sure The Terrtory's greatest need is capital for the development of it's great When it is made attractive to investors it's growth will be as- sured The policy in the past has been to repell capital and result it's progress and the growth O. it's population have been retarded
 The management of Alaska is in the hands of many bureaus and governmental agencies There should be an intelligent coordination of authority Iso that red tape and overlapping of governmental functions may be reduced to minimum
 There is sound for hope that within the next few months President Harding with the assist anie of his Cabinet officers, will work out a compre- hensive plan for Alaska which will make possible the development of its enormous potential wealth It may be assumed that the chief executive will give the problem his best efforts, that the Northland may have the chance for which it has been looking for many years.

pression that the man fought to get his wife so he could spend all his time fighting with her.
 Cosmetics can do a lot, but there is nothing like money to make homely middle-aged girl look young and pretty.
 A mans faults never worry him as much as they do his wife. You never see man using up couple of hours a day taking himself to task for being such a noaccount loaf- ting dumbbell.
 There's one thing about the pres ent style Of dresses. and that is the one with a shape like Venus doesn't look any better in them than her sister who hasn't any more shape than a broom handle. Another thing that seems to be conspicuous by it's absence these days is the oldfashioned, meek, little wife that a husband could bully.
 If the flappers' minds were only as bright as the colors they are wearing what world beaters they would be,

 One of the sliekest little comedy sketches seen here in a long lime IS that put on at Foxs this week by fhli comedian. keeps the audience m an Adams. Adams himself clever nproar. The Hoffman Sisters are about the snappiest rough and tam- ble female dancers who have yet ap- peared here, and the Two Johns also have neat aerobatie specially. while Hoffman and Myers. two men, shoot across rapid fire line of comedy pat- ter and jokes. This fine program Is backed up by great photopiay, Quincy Adams Sawyer. one Of Inc leading releases of this period.
 "Quiney Adams Sawyer" .s a play Of old New England life. pot unlike Way Down East in its fundamen- tals. yet the story is entirely different, while it's thrills more than equal the great fec scene in the last named nie- tnre. When the leading man. John Bowers, leaps from a high cliff into the river, while astride his horse. and when hc swims ont to the old ferry which is swirling towards the rapids with tho blind girl on 1t. the speeta- tor unconsciously grips the handles of his seat. A notable cast presents the picture. among those working with Bowers being Lon chaney, Elmo Lincoln. Barbara Le MarrGail Henry, Hank Mann and Louise Frasenda.

BuRLEsQUE KING AT LycEuM.

Phil ott. king Of the old burlesane troupers. is now playing at the Ly- ceum theater at the head Of his own company Of players in a rip roaring comedy farce. With him is Miss Net tie Nelson. one of the rare women actresses who is an accomplished com edienne. The show put on by the Ott players is absolutely lacking in any plot or sequence of events, but it is so constructed that its elements or fun and frivolity more than make up for that. One scene stands out pre- eminently in which Ott and Miss Nell son enact little restaurant scene or the pre-Volsteadian days. After quail fling two drinks the girl acquires what seems to be q convincing jag and her impersonation of a giddy wom- an drunk is excruciatingly funny.
