Sun as Reducing Aid.

We all know how vital sunlight is to
plant and animal life. Only recently
it has been found that one Of the rea-
sons for this in animals is that the sun
light activates the fat in the. skin so
that it either produces the vtamin D,
or some factor which acts as well.
(Vitamin D Is necessary for the proper
utilization Of calcium and phosphorus
in the body, so that the bones and
teeth will be normal and the organs
function property
Now this interesting point has been
noted by an investigator Canton, in the
Clinca Pediatrica, Modeno) that the
ultra violet radiationS which are given
by certain lights giving the concentrated
sunlight, increase the insenSible per-
spiration--that is, the water given of
In the breath from the lungs, and from
the skin (even when there is apparently
no perspiration). This may be because
it speeds up the metabolism or the
chemistry Of the body.
This can be taken advantage Of by
those who are trying to reduce. Get

The association is com- posed entirely of local homesteaders, who expect to exchange labor with each other and thus reduce the cost of clearing to minimum.

CONTINUED AID TO PROSPECT0R
 NOW PROPOSED
Dunn Introduces Measure to Accomplish it.
 Other Bills

Continued financial aid to pros- pectors is the aim of measure introduced in the Senate yesterday afternoon by Senator Dunn of the Fourth Division. It seeks to amend Chapter 18, Session Laws of 1927, by adding a new section under which it directs each legislature to provide the necessary funds for this work.
 Territorial aid to prospectors, talked of for years, became a real ity in 1927 through measure sponsored by Senator Dunn which appropriated money to pay as much as $50 to any prospector in de- fraying his transportation expense to new mineral districts.
 WORK IS OF VALUE
 The experiment, which was car ried out under the supervision of B. D. Stewart, as Commissioner of Transportation, seemed to work out we'll About l50 men were ex- tended assistance and a number of new districts prospected In his recent message to the Legislature Gov Parks recommended @ con- tinuation of this activity. The Act of 1927 merely authorized it for two years, and Senator Dunn's meas ure, if enacted, will validate appro- priations made by future Legisla- lures.
 A measure was introduced by Senator Benjamin, First Division, carrying an appropriation of $779 for payment of two months salary to R. K. Stewart, Predatory Ani- nal Control director, and to re-. imburse him for personal effects lost in a gasboat fire.
 The first memorial of the session made it's appearance in the Senate. It urges the War Department to establish a wireless station at Yak utat. It was introduced by Sena- tor Benjamin who also introduced a Concurrent Resolution that di- rects the Territorial Road Com- mision to set aside $s0000 from the First divisions allotment of road funds for the next biennium to construct a road between the two Indian villages at Yakutat.
 Mir Woofter's printing bill, pass ed by the Senate yesterday with two minor amendments, was the first to get by both houses this

session. The Senate also passed three of it's own measures, one carrying $2.2oo for transportation of school pupils for the remainder of the current school year, one ap- propriating $757o2 to meet a de- ficiency in the Kotzebue school house funds, and $125 for the re- lief of Cecelia Carey.
 Re-Enact Compensation Law
 Re-enactment of the 1927 Work mems Compensation Act is provided for in House Bill No 8, introduced yesterday by Representative Grover c. Vim. Doubt as to the validity of the 1927 law was raised in the biennial report of ths Attorney General who said it had reached and had been signed by the Gov ernor after the Legislature had adjourned sine die. MT Winn's bill is identical with the. 1927 Law
 Representative Mccain introduc- cd a measure seeking an appropria- tion of $50 for H. H. McCutcheon, Third Division man, who until a day or so before the Legislature convened, was thought to have been elected to the seat occupied by MT Mccain. The bill would reimburse MT. McCutcheon for ey- penses incurred from his home to Cordova, enroute here. He was advised at Cordova of MT Mo Gains election and returned home from there.

ficial Territorial Commission to arrange for Alaska's participation of the celebration of the 2G0th an niyersary in 1892 of the birth of George Washington, was proposed in a communication sent to the Legislature by Gov. Parks. He sug- gested the Governor, President of the Senate, Speaker of the House and one member from each of the four Divisions to serve on such a board.
 The Governor also sent to the House communications from Gov. c. c. Young and other California officials inviting Alaska to send an exhibit to the 18th anniversary of the founding of the California State Fair to be held at Sacranen- to next summer. The Territory is offered free exhibit space and free publicity. Gov. Parks said he con- sidered this the most desirable offer" Of it's kind ever made to the Territory and recommended it's &C., ceptance. Expenses, he said, would be limited to a paid employee to look after the display booth and transportation expenses.
 Gov. Parks also transmitted to the House an expense item of $1055 submitted by Dr. J. A. Suth- erland for expenditures and reim- burscnlent for his time in handling the recenS smallpox epidemic on the lowcr Yukon river and Seward Penia1ula. There is no provision in law, hs sail, for making such
