Judge Lomen immed- lately asked MT. Hart to come to Nome to take over the office. He will leave here next Saturday for Fairbanks and go by plane to Nome.
 Judge Lomen asked him to make the aerial trip if possible as a term of court has been called for early next month, converting before the next Victoria is due at Nome.
 Mr Hart was nominated about three weeks ago for the Nome berth. The nomination was re- ferred to the Senate Judiciary Committee and by it to sub- committee, but no report was made prior to recess. Late advices re- ceived here from authentic sources said Delegate Sutherland had pro- tested against his confirmation on two grounds-that MT. Hart is a resident of Juneau, and that he is attorney for a large number of cannery companies

ceptive to the things with which they
are in tune, just as radio is receptive
to vibrant air waves to which it is
tuned. without being in tune no mes
sage can be received. Without being
mentally receptive to pleasures they
pass us by unheeded, even though they
may be within our very grasp If only
we were able to discover them. Think
ing over the pleasures one has turns
the key in the door of darkness and
opens the way to such discoveries.
Few persons have to be advised to
think of unhappy cents. Just one
single unpleasant occurrence in the day
has a power to blind many persons to
all the good things that have occurred.
It is true that if by thinking the mat
ter over some light is gained on how to
avoid a similar troublesome occurrence
the time is well spent. But 1t must be
remembered that thinking of this sort
is constructive and not mere mulllng
over misspent hours, unwiSe CONVERSE
ton, disagreeable actions, etc. There
can be no pleasure in such thoughts
unless they save us from occurrences
by suggesting to ourselves better ways
of thought or wiser actions. Never,
therefore, linger over disturbing ideas.

this is only partially true. If it were
true we would not be masters of our
minds and it is in this realm of thought
that every one is master Of himself or
herself.
When it seems impossible not to
think of matter over which one has no
control or events that have transpired
during the day that make us miserable,
try summing up the good occurrences.
Do not omit the slightest thing that
has been right. The thoughts will be-
come engrossed. If the good things
seem slight, it takes all the more
thought to Gull them out, and the mind
has to center carefully on the subject.
It will be found that the disagreeable
ideas fall more and more into the back
ground. When once the mind becomes
wrapped in the pleasant events the
realm of delight becomes reality.
Counting over the happy events of
day at its close will bring joy, some
times very keen joy. 1t is worth doing.

Nutrition Nuggets.

This is the time to make good use of
the many varieties OF greens that are
in the market. Some varieties are
peculiar to certain sections, such as,
for instance, mustard green's, field
cress, poke and turnip green's which
are seldom seen in the North, but are
very popular In the South: others, such
as spinach, dandelion greens, kale. bean
sprouts, broccoli and Spring onions are
used in all parts of the country. All OF
these greens are packed full OF the
health-giying minerals and vitamins
and are deserving OF very large place
in Spring and early Summer meals.
Use them as salads, or cook them II
YOU wish: but If you cook them. be care
full not to cook them too long. Both
flavor and nutritive value are better
when the greens are cooked for short
time--just long enough to make them
tender.
There is need for some quick energy
food in the diet Of children. The best
food of this type is sugar, and as most
children have a natural craving for
sweets, the difficulty lies not so much
in using sugar as in using 1t wisely. No
child should be allowed to overload his
cereal with sugar, or to eat sweets to the
exclusion of other valuable foods. A
moderate amount OF candy, moderate
amount of sugar In and on foods, and
wise selection of desserts win go lar
toward meeting the best needs of the
average child's diet by furnishing good
supply of energy.
Speaking along the lines Of the use of
sugar, most nutrition experts feel that
it does no harm to give children small
amounts of candy at the end of each
meal Eaten between meals it Is apt
to blunt the appetite and destroy the
desire for foods that are needed for
body building, repair purposes and for
general development.
Cereals are among the cheapest foods
we have and are high in food value.
They should have a place In every
dietary but should be widely used when
economy is the main factor that must
be taken into consideration when plan
ming meals. A generous serving of hot
cereal, with milk and sugar, meets the
largest proportion of the food needs for
breakfast. Cereal buildings are mex
pensive. filling and highly nutritious,
and combinations Of cereals and cheese
and cereals with small amounts of meat
can be counted on to- supply the nutri-
tive properties necessary for body-build-
ing purposes and at a much lower cost
than most meat dishes.

Strawberry Shortcake

Now that the strawberry season Is
drawing near, it's a good time as any
to say something of the virtues of
real, old-fashioned strawberry short
cake Not the sweet, cakey corcoc-
tions that so generally masquerade as
shortcake nowadays, but the real brown,
crumbly biscuit. smothered in fragrant
crushed berries, and served with thick.
slightly sweetened, but unwhipped
cream.
There are few dishes that surpass it
for those who like true flavor in food.
And that many people do like it is
proved by one restaurant I know that
makes a speciality of this kind of
shortcake al during the berry season.

this delicacy, but finds it difficult to
keep up with the demand.

Vegetable Broth.

Peel and cut into small dice a quarter
OF good sized white cabbage, a carrot,
a turnip, six stalks of celery and an
onion. Put them into a frying pan
with two tablespoonfuls of butter or
good dripping, cover them closely and
set them at the side of the stove for
half an hour. They must cook very
slowly. At the end of the half hour
pour upon them pint of hot water
and in this let them simmer for two
hours, or until tender. Season to taste
with salt and pepper, add pint more
Of boiling water, boil up sharply, then
take from the fire. Pass croutons Of
fried bread with this broth.
