 While everything is moving along smoothly and goodly of money com ing in, many of us never stop to re- fleet that perhaps the day may come when our earning power and our in come will diminish or stop We make no determined resolution. to save something. every week, every month.
 Often young men and young women have said when the subject of sys- tematic saving arose, It isn't worth while, my starting a savings bank account. I couldn't put in more than a few dollars"
 Mir. Dollars letter brings out more forcibly than anything ever before published how savings bank ac- count started with less than S2.50 a week can grow. Mrs. Dollar certainly could have said to herself that it was no use starting a savings account, seeing that her husband was getting only S100 a month and had tc Use quite a part of this to pay off his debts, equal to his entire wages. for two and half years. But she showed sense.
 Maybe it will encourage you to give thought to this subject of saving if you see with your own eyes how a small sum saved regularly counts up in course of years. Let us start with a table based on only s10 deposited month and work up to a $100 month.
 The following table shows what these savings reach with interest compounded semi annually:

LENGTH OF GOWN

London.The Lord Chamberlain's of flee and fashionable modistes of the West End of London and in Paris are at great variance as to how long the skirt of fashionable gown should be,
 -Four or five inches from the ground" is the edict of Queen Mary, which has remained unchanged for several years, in spite of the exposed knee which Paris designers have been tayoring.
 Women presented at the Court of St. James have been compelled to lis ten to the dress regulations set forth by the Lord Chamberlain office, and there Is no indication that there will be any modification in the rule about skirt lengths.
 Many dressmakers have made re- quests that the regulations be altered to allow this years court dresses to be eight inches from the ground, but their request has been refused by the Queen, who thinks that enough con- sideration has been shown to present fashion by allowing trains to be Is inches long instead of the former reg ulation length of four yards.

SAYS CREDIT SYSTEM
 THREATENS HARD TIMES

Extravagant buying on the install. ment plan by laborers and salaried with small incomes is responsible for the prevailing conditions in the States, says M. H. Kirschbauh. pio-- neer Ketchikan merchant, who re- turned to that place recently from an extended visit through the States.
 Although bank deposits in institu- tions in the States. are. high, mer- chants generally, and particularly those in the clothing business, com plain of large decrease in buying. Mr. Kirschbaum told the Chronicle This was especially noticeable in Chi cago, New York and other Eastern cities On the Pacific coast this con dition was less prevalent, and. in San Francisco merchants reported husi- ness as very good. . Business eondi- tions in San Francisco were better than in any other city in which he visited, Mr. kirschbaum reports. all though Seattle merchants were show ing more optimism than earlier in the year.
 Business. men everywhere that Mir. Kirschbaum. visited told him that they believed a crisis is rapidly approach ing, because of the eXtravagant mode of living now in vogue throughout the country. Clerks and other salaried men, whose monthly income is ap-, proximately $200 per month, live in apartments costing them S100 to S125- per month rental They have eXpen- sive radio sets. automobiles, jewelry, fur coats and clothing, all being paid for on small weekly or monthly in stallments. After the initial splurge retrenchment was in order, so now they buy less clothing, spend their nights at home listening in on radio programs, and their holidays on motor trips. As long as they have the fla cilities for entertainment they content themselves with buying fewer com modities, and the merchant dealing in the ordinary staples is suffering in consequence
 If the nation gets. through this year, and the next without a-crash, theI merchants, particularly those who do large. credit business. and most of them permit extensive credits, Mr. Kirschbaum savs.-believe that crisis will be averted, unless the present extravaganza increases.
 The merchant and the purchaser. of his wares are both gannblinq.' 5n times being, good with. plenty of work at the going wage-s Should this con- dition be changed to any extent, that is, should the labor market be glutted and work harder to obtain, everyone going to suffer.
 Alaska will be the last to feel it, Mr. Kirschbaum believes, because it has been his experience during the years he has spent in the Northland tifat any condition in the States is not felt here materially for nearly a year.

nent of herds and camps at or near Cantwell, as we'll as another some where on the Kenai peninsula, on Cook Inlet.
 1t is reported that there are in the neighborhood of 125,OO0 reindeer in the district near Nome belonging to private owners, which are sold for fro m$10 to $15, with 9 very small small market to draw from. It is thought that if substantial number of these deer are moved to this To- cality that great numbers of these animals could be shipped to the States for fresh meat.
 The proposed route of travel in bringing these herds is over the reg ular caribou lines of travel from she North The moving of these animals would require the assistance of many herders and a great deal of time-
 Establishment of slaughter houses and cold storage plants would have to be provided for, with the iuaugura- tion of thriving business
 The idea is splendid, aad will create much business for this district and tonnage for the railroad, and help de- velopment in this district of Alaska.
