 WORK EARLY IN JUNE
COMPANY MAY ERECT SHELTER PROVIDING DEVELOPMENT
 WORK JUSTIFlES

"The men behind the Moose Min ing Company have ample capital to carry on operations to almost any extent" Moose" Johnson, original discoverer of the Chulitna claims, stated Saturday during an interview with the Gateway And engineer w. F. Deaner, now en route to Seward from Seattle, will immediately begin the work of constructing at least three camp buildings and blast out powder house on the property which is located nine miles from Chulitna station on the Alaska Rail- road" By June 1st at least seven men should be actively engaged in carrying on the mine activities.
 Capt c. T. Pederson. vice-presi- dent and general manager of the Northern Whaling & Trading Con- pany, of New York and Oakland, is president of the Moose Mining Con- pany The former company operate line of freighters on the Pacific, it is stated
 W. F. Deaner, who is yice-presi- dent of the mining company, is said to be one of the best known engin- eers in California He passed through Seward last fall en route to the States in company with J. R. Ratliff, former resident of Seward
 AS was stated in the Gateway Sat urday number of carloads of min ing machinery and equipment will be discharged at this port from the s. s. Admiral Watson. Included in the machinery is a 15O h. D. Diesel engine and compressor. A little diff ficulty may be experienced in getting the outfit to the property from the railroad, distance of nine miles to Portage Creek, but Moose" said he felt certain the road commission would put in a wagon road in the near future or when active mining operations begins.
 It is expected the first work will be that of sinking 300 feet on the lead and providing the ore holds out as good as present assays operations on large scale will be started.
 Frank Lee, we'll known packer, has the contract for taking in the outfit. He expects to use ten horses and a five ton tractor in accomplishing this. |
 Speaking of the ore Moose" said it compares favorably with Premier ore, mostly of ruby silver, and carry ing native gold and silver. The ruby silver predominates. Mill run tests average $100 ton and there is every indication the ore is unlim- ited.
 For two years, Moose" Johnson. the original discoverer of the mine and who worked it for two years alone, took in Harry Wertz as partner in March 1923. Together they developed and opened up the property sufficiently to interest the present company.
 In conclusion Moose" said that MT. Deaner is also an expert smelter man and providing the development work is satisfactory the possibility of the company erecting smelter at some point on the railroad may be among the projects of the future.

Late Fashion Notes of
Interest to All Women

Hats of felt and velvet are most
charming when carried out in wis
.aria color.
The new tailored blue suits sport
gay vests of Russian cross work in
vivid colors worked on oyster linen.
Gold ljewelry, consisting of neck
laceS, bracelets, earrings, ETC., is worn
with the new costumes that are so
chic.
The scarf of the hour is square
of silk, either striped or in squares.
1t is worn about the throat much as
man wears his muller.
The new velvet that is transparent
is so lovely that great success is
predicted for it. Beautiful new coats
are now shown in black. They are
equally suitable for afternoon or eve
ming wear.
The smartest little coat of all, for
the small maiden of six, is made of
soft wool in delicate colors, with
much wool embroidery upon the col
lar, cuffs and pockets.
Many of the smartest new evening
wraps are cut bit shorter than the
froeks. so that one glimpses long ends
and trailing draperies. The effect is
delightfully."- feminine and graceful.
Sparkling indeed is the new cos
tune jewelry for evening Combina-
tons of emeralds and rhinest0nes are
particularly popular and many pieces
can be obtained in the same design.
The little girl who goes to school in
plaid skirt and tan sweater is
sure to he well-dressed little girl.
The sweaters come i'm several differ
ent models.
A welcome change from the silver
fox neckpiece now So much worn are
those made of two sable skins that
can be twisted closely about the
throat
A short jacket with flared skirt is
made by French designer and mod
eled after the blue coat of French
soldier 1t is double breasted and
trimmed with fur dyed to match the
blue of the coat.
Close-ftting felts are wonderfully
becoming this season, especially the
ones that are cut in straight line
with the eyebrows and down over the
ears like ear-tlaps.
The two-skirt frock is new, charm
ing and practical innovation. Over a
straight-line frock of black silk is an
extra skirt which is gracefully gath
cred and which can he used. If one

note of color is the gold metal ends to

Sports Fur Coats
Liked by Misses
Straightline Models That
Combine Furs and Ma
terials Get O. K.

The sports models in fur coats have
come to the fore as the season adj
vances. The desire for straightfine
coats with effective combinations Of
either different pelts or a cloth fab
ric for trimming has led to the ere
alton of coats that are exceptional
ly chic.
The fiat furs, such as natural
ocelot, caracul, krimmer, pony, beaver,
calfskin, otter, nutria, sealskin,
sheared leopard cat, leopard and kid
skin, create some of the newer sports
models. They are usually designed
along the simplest Of lines with
flare noticeably absent. A feature of
these coats is the combination Of
longer haired fur for collars and cuffs
principally wolf--or the use of wool
en- materials in creating the popular
Tomboy collar.
The introduction Of colors that are
bright and youthful are seen in the
coats that use cloth collar, cuffs
and odd bindings and pipings on the
coat.
Diagonal effects are extremely i'm
portant in the mode for fashionable
furs. Spiral pelt workings also are
frequently used. Trimmings run to
leather pipings, skunk pointed like
silver fox, blonde fox and badger.

Paris Dressmaker Says
No Prevailing Fashion"

There is no such thing as "the pre-
vailing fashion" or "the prevailing
mode" in women's clothes, declares
Madeleine Vionnet, famous Paris
dressmnker, in the Delineator. Nine
Vionnet strongly deplores the constant
cry of American women for what the!
term new NODES"
"The mode" says the Partisan cou-
turiere, mo longer consists for me of
anything more than the best manner
of draping o given fabric over a given
woman, so that each shall show off
the other to the best possible ad
vantage. Every woman ought to have
her own manner Of dress, her mode
and this is the mode which should
be only too happy to seek for each If
she would only follow it. Women
ought only TO ask of our skili and our
experience the ability to bring or
their own selves not to create for
them uniform of which they will
rapidly tire, forcing us to constant
change. Women, according to thei:
age ana their natural conformation
may be divided into four or five well
defined categories. and II is very rar"
for the mode of one season to dress
decently more than one or two Of
these types.

DriUeways and W.
Add to Hon2d Beauty

Perhaps there is nothing that lends
more to the appearance of the sur
rOundings of home than neat, artis-
tically placed walks and driveways.
Careful thought given to their plac-
ing and arrangement at the time they
are built will more than repay the
owner in the attractiveness they will
add to the exterior of the home. Ev-
cry lawn offers a variety of possibili-
ties in location and arrangement.
Like streets and highways, walks
and driveways must be designed To,
meet the needs of those who use them.
While it is generally desirable to have
them take the most direct route, pleas
ing effects can often be obtained by
the use of graceful curves. It is folly
to destroy fine tree because it hap
pens to be in line with the route OF
the walk or driveway; q graceful
curve around the tree does not incon-
venience anyone and it will add to the
beauty of the home surroundings.
Often such curves can be arranged
so that the garage is partially hidden
behind clump of trees or bushes. In
building such curves, provision mus1
be made for the growth of the trS
to prevent it from raising or crack
the concrete.

Build Permanent Home

The permanence of the modern
home is just as important as the per-
manence of all other buildings, yet
you seldom find anyone as much con-
cerned about the durability of the ma
terials that so into homes as about
those that go into schools, hospitals,
office structures and the like. The
mere fact of difference in size of the
buildings seems to have made a diff
ference in the public mind. Yet homes
are everywhere acknowledged to be
the bulwarks of the country. and the
type and number of homes are usually
taken as good criterion of the sta
bility and prosperity of population.
