BRAWN, BEAUTY AND BRAINS

If appreciation of human excellenc,
 be correctly indicated by the materia
 gains possible to it's possessor, it cal
 hardly be denied that the world stil
 esteems the physical above the men | tai.
 Brawn and beauty command finan
 cial rewards far above those accord
 ed to mere brains, and to be success
 full a man should be born a good look ing girl baby with a covetous dispo
 sition and an itching palm. This re fers of course to the personal earn ings of the tOp-nOtchers in brawn and beauty and not to those pulchritudi nous ladies who hie to Hollywood tc display their charms.
 We are willing to pay fabulous sums to those who entertain us but deal less generously with those who con tribute to our mental pabulum or our general we'll being.
 Compare the earnings of Gloria Swanson, Mary Pickford, Jack Demp. sey and Babe Ruth, or any baby gold. en haired vamp in our larger cities, with those of our eminent authors, scientists and engineers, or even with the salary of a lowly, hard-working Alaskan editor, who must be a mental millionaire with a slight overdraft at his bankers. While some authors receive handsome remuneration. and few editors have two pairs of sus- penders and wear lavendar socks. they are experts in their profession. or have a good list of stockholders.
 That the condition is becoming more and more marked, may be illus trated by the shower of gold just now being heaped upon Red" Grange, famed football star, who has received close to $5OO,OO0 in less than a month since he left the University of Hi nols to join the profession. Or con-
 YAM SooS VI Ou1 1IlCuu 1drrV Steel, of Cordova, the Beau Brummel of the newspaper game in Alaska. or Johnny Troy of the Empire, who can go to the states first class anytime he has an inclination, or the dean of of all Alaskans, the Hon. w. F. Thompson, who can indulge in satire and "reminiscences to his hearts con- tent, without losing business or peace of mind.
 About the only conclusion to be 1rawn from this is that one must be born with swelling muscles and sturdy frame, or have such enticing propor- ions as to engage the attention of ] decadent millionaire. Brains evi- lently hold second place in the race or fame and fortune, or maybe little brains are displayed by the man who akes up the perilous newspaper game.

Fog Destroys AudibiIity

Dense fog has a peculiar property
of reducing or destroying audibility
within certain zones. Marine dis
asters along coasts are sometimes
due to the fact that sound signals
which are plainly audible during
clear weather cannot be heard with
in certain zones of silence when the
sounding object is surrounded by
dense fog. A recent example is that
or the steamer Siberian Prince
which went on the rocks at Bentnick
island during dense fog while the
fog signal at Race rocks nearby was
in operation. Subsequent investisa-
ton revealed the fact that the sound
of the signal could be heard at this
point in clear weather, but not dur
ing a dense fog.
