LESSONS IN
VAMPING
BY Helen Rowland.

TN MARRIAGE al in dancing.
these days, you have to be
constantly on your guard. Some
body is always cutting in and
trying to snitch your partner.
Somehow, a woman never can
make d man understand that a.
reason is not an explanation, and
that an explanation Is not always
an EXCUSE.
Men seem to be divided into
two classes; those who look good
to you but are bad FOR you,
like French pastry; and those who
are hard to swallow. but GOOD
for you, like spinach and medi-
cine.
A man usually loves a woman
as long as she lets him ''bestoW'
things on her; but nothing makes
him so indignant as to discover
that any woman thinks she has a
claim" on his time, his thoughts,
his kisses, or his money.

 "The Kodiak -Afognack group is ap- proximately 100 by 50 miles in extent or ample acreage for more than 500 families. Mennonite colonies are conn ing in, having already put in applica tions for homesteads and grazing rights. Stockmen of the Western State who now find themselves cir cumscribed for good grazing lands are turning their eyes to Western Alaska.

accure from this influx of new blood
 With those islands to the West ward peopled by tillers of the soil and herders of f1ocks, there will be new steamship and air transportation; new fishing industry; new mining and timber enterprises. Fur farming will be anothe big asset but it will not go hand in hand with big game hunting. There is enough room in Alaska so that agricultural development and big game hunting can be conducted with out harm to either but there are spots where bear and COW and a sheep can not lay down together in peads amity I don't want to take any joy out of the life of anybody but I am sure going to do my fdamndast' to help grazing flocks on Kodiak instead of protecting destroying bruins"

HUNTS|MEN MUST GIVE WAY BEFORE
 WEST STOCKMEV
McCORD DECLARES EACH CAN BE CONDUCTED WITHOUT HARM
 TO ONE ANOTHER

Civilization is reaching eager hands l toward the open spaces of Alaska and bear which furnish amusement forI rich huntsmen must give way before an advancing army of livestock rais- CTS who are about to preempt the haunts of the wild denizens of hills and dells of Western Alaska islands Especially is this true of Kodiak Is- land that is now practically taken up under homestead grazing lease appli cations and where 800 families should be established within the next few years.
 When 1t comes to a question of al bear or a sheep taking up room on Kodiak, Pm for the sheep" said Jack McCord, who is helping to developI the livestock industry along the is- lands stretching towards Asia where thousands of miles are declared to bel available for year round grazing MT. McCord brought the subject up at the 1 last meeting of the Seward Chamber of Commerce in an effort to work out a plan of action in cooperation with the Kodiak Livestock Association, looking to the control of the bear menace as against the growing live stock interests taking hold in that vi cinity.
 "The elimination of bear from Ko diak must come or families will not come" said MT. McCord. @Thepa will be some guides who may not take kindly to this thought, but A little con- sideration on their part should get them in more amiable frame Of mind when it is reflected that big game hunts on the Alaska Peninsula, the Kenai Peninsula, up Chickaloon way and other hunting sections of Al aska which are not so good for live stock raising will not be restricted.
 'The proponents of the big game huhting Fldusitry fh Alaska, speak of the money that is brought into the Territory by the big game hunters. I suprosing they would bring in $75,o00 to s10O,000 year They will not bring in as much money as those of us who are trying to lay the founda- ton for the new farming and live- stock industry The people whom ! represent have already laid out nearly $1oOOoo on their idea and are prepar- ed to spend half million when our successive steps teach US where and how the money should be spent
 "There is another thought Big game hunters travel on the regular boats Farmers and stock raisers will bring new transportation to new localities. I picture a number of new ports where freighters and passenger carriers must call in the near future.
 Tn the development of the country to the Westward, based upon solid farming and livestock background, there will come the establishment of airplane ports linking up North Amer ica and Asia. It is a well known fact that airplane companies of Europe and 1 America are now laying their routes of travel across the Arctic and along the land ports available or to be 4as- tab1ished up along the British Column bia coast and out to the furthest points of the Aleutian Archinelago. i These things are not warrant fancies.
