Q-In connection with re-
decorating our radiators, what
can be done to make them
look we'll with a finish of but
ternut? They are bronze now.
A-Bronze finish for radiators 10
not recommended since it reduces
the efficiency of the radiator to
transmit heat. This reduction may
amount to as much as 25 per cent.
There are special paints made for
radiators Employ these in colors
to suit your interior decorating
scheme. Bronzing may be removed
with ordinary varnish remover.
Q-How would you choose
between q hood over the kitch-
en- range connected to a flue
and one Of the new electrical
ventilators that are put on out
side walls? Why?
Ave would choose the electric
ventilator. It is more efficient,
more easily controlled and is like
ly to cost less.
Q-1n trying to remove .
wall in an old house so al
we had two, we found the
beams overhead ran straight
through without break over
the old partition. They are
10 feet long. These beams
are about 2x10 inches. The
rooms are 13 feet wide. viii
they sag II we remove the
wall?
A-They will. We suggest you
install a cross beam at the point
where the partition now Is and
supported by suitable pilasters
at the side. Three pieces Of 2x12
will do. If you plan to remodel
your house extensively you should
secure an architect
Q-There is a musty odor
about the house which airing
and heat does not dispell. The
cellar Is dry and there is no
odor there. What Is causing
this and what will rid US OF
this unpleasantness?
A-The cause is probably rot
ted woodwork. You will have to
search it out. Inspect the kitchen
floor If you have linoleum there.
Improperly laid linoleum will per-
NIT water to get below in which
case it will certainly cause rot.
All the decayed woodwork must be
removed. It must be understood
that rot will never occur excepting
where there is sufficient dampness
to maintain the fungus which
causes wood rot

Suits Without Vests
--latest Russian Mode

MOSCOW, March 25 (I.N.sl.-The
proletarian spring fashion for men
is the vestless suit. Unless some
one advances an unbeatable argu-
ment proving that the waistcoat :s
a necessary and useful article, the
fashion will become permanent.
The reason for the innovation is
economy. Some rare brain on the
workers committee Of the Trania.
kov clothing factory figured out
tkat the material used in making
waistcoafs, would make 10,154 ad-
ditional two-piece suits annually.

AIRPLANES SOON
 TO BE HERE SAYS
 JUDGE V. A. PAINE

T am confident that there will be two and perhaps three planes in Juneau before the end of this month,' said Judge V. A. Paine, who returned several days ago from the south. While in Seattle Judge Paine talked with Verne Gorst, and officers of the Consolidated Air ways, and officers of the Union Airline, all three of which expect to have planes make preliminary survey trips to Juneau before the end of March, he said.
 Judge Paine was invited to take ride in one of MT Gorst's planes last Friday, from the east water ways to Lake Union, in Seattle, but was unable to accept as he was preparing to take the boat north. The plane had just been received in Seattle and it expected to leave for Juneau soon, officers told Judge Paine.
 The Consolidated Airways was ex- pecting to receive their Lockhead Viga 8-passenger plane in Seattle this week and to leave for Alaska as soon as it is ready. Joseph Car man, son-in-law of II. F. Alexander, and J. R. Stirrat, are interested

financially in this company, Judge Paine said.
 A fourth plane which is said to be coming to Juneau next week, is that of the International Airways, represented in Juneau by Gerald Smith. Mir Smith expects the plane to leave Seattle next Mon day for the north piloted by Pat ty" Burke In case his company receives the necessary mail contract a regular service operating three times a week should be feasible, MT. Smith said. The success of the airline will depend to large extent on the patronage of the pub lie in sending air mail and air ex- press, he said. The Internation- al Airways will use Siskorsky Am phibian 8-passenger plane when the service is established.

FORMER SERVICE
 MEN ARE WANTED

The American Legion is now dis tributing literature to ex-service men regarding their rights and benefits. The Legion desires that all ex-service men, not belonging to regular posts, communicate per sonally with Leroy Vestal and send in their names and addresses. Serv- ice men are also requested to send in names of those they know are ex-service men. It is said there are hundreds of ex-service men who have benefits coming who have not received them.

BOXING BOARD
 CREATION AIM
 OF HOUSE BILL
Ziegler Introduced Bill to Give Board Control
 Over Boxing Game

T e creation of a boxing Com n1is ion to have complete control over that sport in Alaska, is the aim Of bill introduced in the House yesterday by Representative A. II. Ziegler. It provides for a five-inan board, only one of which would receive pay, to be appointed by the Governor upon recommenda- tion of the Department Command CT of the American Legion of Alas ka.
 Its headquarters would be in Ket- chikan under the provisions of the bill. It would be represented wher- ever necessary by an inspector to supervise bouts, check gate re- ceipts, etc.
 The board, to be known as the Athletic Commission, would be vest ed with power to issue and revoke licenses for boxing matches to bona fide, benevolent, fraternal, patriotic or religious organizations and no boxing matches may be conducted without permission of the board.
 The bill also makes boxing g. sort of local option matter The proposed commission is prohibited from issuing licenses for matches in any city that has not by either resolution or ordinance consented to conducting boxing matches.
 A license fee of $25 in cities of 5000 or under population is fixed for each club holding such licenses. In addition a five per cent com mission is allowed to the boxing board from the proceeds of each match. The salary of the Secre- tary, S2,400 per year, and other ex- penses would be defrayed from that source.
 Sunday boxing is barred. Sale or giving away of intoxicating h- quor in any building where matches are held. is prohibited. Persons under Is years of age, unless ac- conpanied by parents or guardian cannot be admitted to matches.
 Boxers under IS years of age can not get on cards under the bills provision. Physical examinations are required by licensed physicians appointed by the Commissioner for that purpose.
 The measure is said to have the backing of the Alaska Department of the American Legion. It is modelled after Kansas, Minnesota and other state boxing legislation.
 Congress, MT. ziegler pointed out, recently legalized boxing in the Territory Under the terms of the Federal act, it is possible to com mercialize the game to a large ex- tent and the Legionnaires and other friends of the sport here are anxious to keep it more nearly on an amateur basis. This, MT. Zieg- Ter said is the intent of his meas ure
