QNWhat is the best way to
avoid cracks In plaster?
A-Most important factors are

Fairbanks is playing Dumas swash- buckling hero of the seventeenth century.
 The scene of the picture is laid in France during the latter part of the reign of Louis XIII and the first years of the regime of the young Louis XIV. The story opens with the birth of the heir to the throne of France and carries through the years of his boyhood to the early period of his rulership. In the second part of the picture, DArtagnan and his three faithful friends, Athos, Porthos and Aramis, grown older but still adventuresome, wield their swords in defense of the young king as Loyalty as they served his father.

For several years there has been talk of getting the pulp and papsr industry started. Up to the pres ent there has been only talk. But that has been enough to make my opponents commence to snarl and show their teeth at possible inves- tors.
 Tn the November issue of the Alaska Fisherman, William Paul has a front page editorial attack ing the Bureau of Forestry as once more showing that it is a creature of the Pulp Mills
 Similar attacks have been made upon the Water Power Commission by members of Congress.
 "The result of these attacks have always been the same--to make the bureaus and Congress increase the restrictions upon the development of the natural resources. If people are going to endorse those attacks by voting these people into public offices the bureaus and Congress must necessarily assume we. want the investors barred by still more odious restrictions.
 Now or Never Let me give you this bit of in- formation, Unless we get the pulp ! and paper industry started now we never will get it started. There never will be any tariff protection on pulp and paper because all the newspapers want cheap paper. Si- beria has vast spruce forests, it has great water powers and an abund- ance of cheap labor. We cannot compete with that. Unless we get started first and get well under way, Siberia will monopolize the field.
 Tn 1913 three representatives of the greatest pulp and paper manu- facturers in the world spent six weeks in Southeastern Alaska, look ing over the possibilities for that industry. They liked the country, but could get no concessions from the government. The next year those men were in Russia seeking concessions in Siberia when the war broke out. If it had not been for the collapse of the Russian Govern ment these men would now have been in Siberia making pulp and paper for the American market.
 Source of Prosperity
 Do you realize what it means to get that industry started here? It means prosperous cities, and log ging camps everywhere. with em- ployment twelve months each year for all who want to work
 But you cannot get that by en- couraging and endorsing men who thrive on vilifying and obstructing business in order to get votes or a hand-out. These people will not stop their agitation till they find .out it does not pay them"

INA CLAIRE IS AT
 COLISEUM TONIGHT

Ina Claire, foremost comedienne of the American stage, makes her talking screen debut at the Coli scum tonight in a version of one of her greatest successes, "The Awful Truth" This picture, in- troducing the bride of John Gill bert to the motion picture public, consummates one of the most im- portant association of the theatre and the screen since the inaugura- .tion of dialogue productions.
 "The Awful Truth" is the story of a man and his wife who are ,madly in love, yet who encounter the snags of jealousy, pride and selfishness. How these disturb ing elements throw the ship of nlatrimony on the rocks and how it is saved makes a highly enter 'taining and intriguing screen play. Miss Claire is supported by a east of stage and screen players of rare ability and the production was directed by Marshall Neilan, Hen sry Daniel, noted English actor, who made his American stage debut with Ethel Barrymore in the re- vival of "The Second Mrs. Tan queray," is Miss Claire's leading man. Others in the cast are John Roche, Theodore Von Eltz, Blanche Frederici, Judith Vosselli, Sidney ,Bracey, James Neill, Paul Harvey, who played in the original stage version of The Awful Truth" Colin Chase and Jacqueline Dyris.

 Who are responsible for the Bu- reau of Fisheries?
 Those who wrote the reserva- tions into our Organic Act and put the White Fish Bill through Congress.
 We had the bureaus forced upon the government by demagogues who show their friendship for labor by denouncing all who engage in any productive industry, and there is 10 hope of getting rid of the bu- eau in the near future. Under the circumstances propose to CO., operate with them.
 Those bureaus are not to blame hey are composed of as good men and women as ever set foot on Alaska soil They are doing their level best under the laws enacted for their guidance.
 Cooperation Is Needed
 By friendly cooperation there is a chance to have some of the restrictions placed upon business relaxed so as to make the country more inviting to capital. Nothing whatever of good is accomplished by constantly barking at the bu- reaus and at capital. Such atti- tude was never designed to accom- pliSh anything but to fool some of those people who are never at peace with themselves except when they are somebody's dupes.
