MATERIALS FOR EVERY MOOD
Published by Special Arrangement with Good Housekeeping
Some of the Interesting
Fabrics Utilized in the
Late Spring FrOcks

TNIE tendency to depend on the
4 material instead of trimming
for the sumptuousness OF frocks
has inspired the fabric creators
to fashion material to meet the
demand.
The materials illustrated have
been created by three of the great.
est and most important Partisan
fabric creators and are indicative
of the general trend.
The four materials illustrated
in the center are from Rodier,
all woolens and new designs.
At the. top one finds five charm
ing printed silks for daytime
wear, from Ducharne and Coudu.

BOUNDARIES OF FUR DISTRICTS
 NOT TO CHANGE
Present Arrangements to
 Continue Tn Effect for Another Season

There will be no change for the next year at any rate in the boun- diaries of the several fur districts in the Territory, it was made known today by the Alaska Game Commis- sion which is holding it's Sixth An. nual meeting here. And there will be only few changes recommend ed in seasonal closing dates on fur bearers and other fur regulations.
 The realignment of fur districts is regarded by the Commission as the most needed action pending. But information is not at hand in sui ficient detail regarding climatic and ether conditions to enable the Com mission to act with accuracy and intelligence in the matter, said Dr, w. H. Chase, President. During the next year data will be assem- bled and it is hoped by members of the board that the boundaries can be re-arranged at next years meeting.
 The Commission, it was said, feels it would be unwise to make any marked changes in regulations be- fore new fur districts are created. For this reason, only few minor changes from present regulations affecting fur-bearing animals Will be recommended to the Secretary of Agriculture.
 The Commission is working out a revision of it's pamphlet circular containing game and fur bearing
