u. S. Is Guarding
Alaskan. Seals
From Extinction

SIN 1912 only $4,000 seals re
manned in Alaska, due to the illegal
poaching and indiscriminate killing
of these valuable animals. Today
the seal herd numbers 100000, due
entirely to the careful conservation
methods of our government, - said
o. f. Albrecht, of the national com
mittee, appointed by Secretary of
Commerce Hoover, on marketing
sealskins for the government.
In 1912 President Roosevelt made
the first stop toward the preserva-
tion of this valuable herd of AMI
mails by negotiating a treaty with
England, Russia and Japan, where
by only a certain proportion of the
seals are killed each year under
direct supervision of the United
States government. These skins arc
taken to st. Louis, dressed and dyed
there by the government agents, and
then sold at auction to the fur
trade each spring and fall.
The value of the seals is entirely
for their fur. For generations,
sealskin has been priced very highly
when made into garments, and when
the. herd was so very small, the
skins brought very high prices. AT
the last sale, however, the govern
ment realized very low prizes on
the skins-the lowest in many, many
years.
i 1t is firmly believed, however, by
Mr.. Albrecht, that the new low
prices will so stimulate the demand
for sealskin that the government, in
the long run, will profit greatly by
the increase in. the size of the herd.
Formerly, only the very wealthy
could afford scalskiu garments,
while now the price is within reach
of everyone.
This committee, consisting of the
heads of some Of the largest depart
ment stores of New York, - Boston
and Chicago, besides O.. f. Albrccht,
the fur. technical member from st.
Paul, also reported that the Ameri-
can way of dressing the scalskins is
a great Improvement onthe old Eng
Iish way. The skins are much more
pliablc and soft than over before,
and consequently the garments made
from them hang more gracefully.

home to their many friends ut 675
Brighton avenue.
The groom's father, J. B. Eliegel

four years ago, when the bride and
groom first came to El Centre. Mrs.
Kliegel was a graduate of the Cen
trail High school last May and her
husband graduated in the class of
1928. Both were extremely prom
inent in high school affairs, taking

DON'T BE SLOPPY IN.
MORNING As NIFTY
FROCKS ACCESSIBLE
BY HEDDA HOYT
Fashion Editor of United Press)


NEW YORK, July 21.- Many
Women know very little about
morning frocks. Most of them
slump III tneir apartments in last
seaSon's dinner gown, covered by a
gingham apron.
No woman looks well in the early
morning cleaning up the results of
last night s bridge party, in a dilap-
idated frock with decollette lines and
minus portions of its beadwork.
How much better a sweet little
gingham house dress looks about the
home. One can choose many lovely
light colors which can't be worn
discriminatory on the street.
Pre- -shrunk linens, g.nghams, flow
cred cretonnes, voiles and cotton
crepes arc all materials suitable for
the house frock, the newest of which
arc made on dress lines rather than
apron lines. Many women make
their house dresses themselves, using
simple straight lined pattern.
Necks are cut rounding and sleeves
are short and sash belt is placed
at low waist-linc. Pockets may
be added on the sides and white
organdv or linen collars tend to
take away the apron appearance.
1t is nice to have at least four of
these dresses, choosing each dress
of different shade. Yellow. and
white checked gingham is always
pretty about the house and gets
away from the popular pink of blue,
color scheme which. most women
seem to prefer. Brown and white
checked gingham is also neat in ap
pearance and holds it's color well
in laundering.
The house dress of today it not
supposed to look like a house dress.
1t has the fit and lines of the
street freck. Cne can run to the
corner grocery without creating any
excitement whatsoever III the mod !
ern working frock.
The woman who does no heavy /
work will find voiles in pastel shades |
lovely for house wear, as they are |
cool and launacr well. Cotton crepe |
is also good material, as it is cas-
lily ironed, or may be worn without
ironing.
Little aprons of cretonne may be
worn over the house frock of plain
colered material. The rubberized I
aprons which come in eolors are
also lovely for housework. One may
match the apron with the froek, if
one so desires.

TO, MOLD FRUIT IN GELATIN

T. i HI . r
Fruit and flowers may be nodded
in gelatin, though they do not in
any way contribute to its flavor;
hut siinnly TO its appearance. A
,bunch of grapes or bananas nodded
IN Iemon Jeiry makes an attractive
dessert Allow to each box of gela-
tin a half pint of cold water, one
quart of boiling water, half pint
of sugar, the juice of three lemons.
Cover the gelatin with cold water,
then add the sugar and the boil
ing water. Add the lemon juice,
strain through two thicknesses OF
scheesecloth; pour into large mo4d
that has been dipped in cold water,
n Iaver of this, and stand aside
to harden. Allow the remaining
leliy TO cool but not CONCEAL; IN
fact. it must be just little warm.
In this way it melts the surface of
the jelly in the mold and the two
are welded in turning out. When
the layer is hard, arrange on it a
large bueh of white or tokay
grapes, or any sliced fruit. Do not
forget that in turning the mold out
the bottom will be the top. Pour
around the grapes or fruit the re-
naming quantity of gelatin, and
stand away TO harden. All fruits
and flowers arc. nodded iii the
same way.
