LEGISLATORS FORGOT
 PAY F0R TYPEWR|TERS

Jock Burford of Juneau will be com pelled to wait two years before he can secure $500 dollars owing him for the use of 14 typewriters rented to the Alaska Legislature during the session just closed.
 It is reported from Juneau that a clerk overlooked the item in the ex- pense bill which was passed without any provision for compensation for the use of the typewriters. As there is no way of reimbursing Burford the mat ter will be compelled to lay over until another session of the Legislature.

THE REAL COMMENCEMENT

The Seniors are graduating. From the elementary schools,
from the High schools and from the colleges and universities.
They are being ushered forth to new fields of activity, new ex-
periences and new problems. Next week one of the finest
classes in the history of Cody will be given diplomas at the Cody
high school. This class represents a high type of man and
womanhood, and without a doubt all of them will do a most
creditable lfe's work. Some of the members of the gradual
ing class are through with school, for them this is a real COM
mencement of the battles of life.
But though some are through with school, none is through
with study. Though some are through with scholastic prepara-
ton, none is through with that continual, sustained application
with the accumulative preparation of all who are fired with the
ambition and zeal of which success is born.
Whatever the field of action to which the graduates now
seek entrance, they will find that the price of advancement, of
service and reward, is indeed the commencement of study and
preparation upon an ever-increasng scale.
Some there are, no doubt, who like to think that they now
are through" Indeed they are through-through with hope
and through with ambition and through with advancement
unless they now commence.

STRAW HAT TIME

One may now inquire, without being premature, what kind
of a straw hat his neighbor will wear this year. But the
question will not provoke a discussion of the new spring styles
in straws and their relative merits and popularity. Invariably
such an Interrogation will bring one of two answers, either,
"a new one" or "last years."
The straw hat has developed 'among the members of the
stronger sex a strange inconsistency. Men may venture forth
in a refurbished last-years model but the most unconventional,
whether the owner of a new or resurrected grass kelly dare not
treat with disdain the calendar limits fashion has erected around
the straw hat season. To appear in public wearing a straw hat
before the season opens and after its fall closing is to invite
suspicious of eccentricity or rustcty. Only country squires
and retired judges can violate this fashion decree with inn
punity.
1t may be true that men observe the rules and edicts of
fashion less strictly than women, but the women could not OBJ
serve any one of their multiplicity of vogues and modes. more
rigidly than man conforms to the calendar limits on the season
for wearing straw hats.
