Not as the expression Of ami
mus. but merely as a matter of
political logic, it appears to me
that the present movement to
diSplace Vice President Curtis on
the G. o. P. ticket in 1882 is
justified. His nomination was 4
makeshift in 1928. He is not a
part of the Hoover administra.
ton, was one Of the Presidents
strongest and bittereSt pre-con-
vention opponents. and his course
since assuming the vice preSi-
dency has not been one Of real
support for the Hoover admins
tration.
If President Hoover is to retain
control of the party machinery
two years hence, I have no doubt
he will make it clear he prefers

Charlie" Curtis in the past two
years has been far from the
genial man we used to know as
the majority leader of the Senate.
The presidential contest two
years ago soured him to q
marked degree. He has lost
much political strength in his
home bailiwick, the agricultural
West, and his old friends in
Washington have been more or
less alienated by his recent politi-
cal record. Then, again, the
Gann-Longworth controversy has
not helped him in the estimation
of official Washington.
Personally, I thin, Curtis is

publican party has been good to
him and he should know when
he has had a Sufficiency Of pub

It is absurd.
Under the present system the

they travel little freQuented

Instead of having the terminal

crowded vehicles, why cannot a
terminal be laid In the downtown

Another matter that should be
looked into is the schedule main

quate for the travel which 1t

are forced to wait as long as half
an hour and then made to stand

this be remedied and extra service

tile service. It informs, sug- geats, and reminds, telling the buyer what goods are in mark ct, where they can be obtained at best prices. It is service just as much as are clerk attention, credit, delivery or anything else connected with trade transactions.
 Advertising is more import ant than prices. We believe the price question is one that, to some extent, has been overrat- ed. The average person would rather buy at home than else where, for the convenience, if for no other reason. In most cases he does not object to paying a little more at home if
 he goods are right and have been properly advertised to him. We have noticed in long newspaper experience that good advertisers get good pric- es.

PRACTICAL BOOSTING

In its efforts to induce the To- cal public to realize the advan- tages to the community of buy ing at home, the Herald has published yards of arguments aimed in that direction and we are glad that our efforts have been warmly endorsed by the more progressive business ele- ments who realize the value of such propagandic influences in shaping the public mind. For the praise bestowed on many occasions we are indeed thank ful and we will continue to em- ploy our best efforts in this re- spect in the future. There is however, another side to the subject of hometown buying propaganda that local business men appear to have overlooked entirely. This is the incontro- vertible fact that the mer- chants themselves can do more to induce hometown buying than all the newspaper urging that can be written.
 In any buy-at-home cam paign the merchants must do their part if it is to attain sue cess. If they have the goods and are prepared to sell them at competitive prices they should advertise the fact. It is proper that they should have all possible editorial assistance, but more can be accomplished in the advertising columns than on a dozen editorial pages. Good mercantile service and good merchandise, we'll adver- tised, are the best buy-at-home agents there ever were or ev- CT will be. Without the merch- andise, the service and the ad- vertising there is little use in boosting and sentimental ap- peals.
 The average citizen prefers to buy at home and if he does not do so there is some good reason for his action. Question ing his loyalty by continually preaching to him is likely to arouse in him g, spirit of antag- onism = negative psychology, the scientists call it.

Encouraged over finds made last year in the Wild River country, a number of Koyukuk mining men are planning to go there in the spring to look over the country. Eight or ten men of that section are said to be contemplating the trip. A piece of quartz, literally covered with gold was found in the Wild River district and brought 70 Fairbanks last summer. Nearly $500 was hammered out of the piece. The district lies 50 miles from Bettles by air line and the stampeders plan to take in their supplies by plane, as the rivers do not open up until late June or ear ly July.

Joined the time-honored cookie jar
in the American pantry because
modern science has discovered
that confectionery provides in
easily digestible form one of the
five essential elements to a bal
anced diet.
Experiments have shown that
children who use up large guam
titles of energy in their daily
activity may have that energy re-
pleniShed by the use Of candy,
and that men and women who
must undergo strenuous physical
exercise can prepare for that ex-
ertion by the use Of confectionery
preceding such time of effort.
Sugar and most candies belong
to the class Of foods known Scien-
tifically as carbohydrates. It is
natural for children and adults to
crave these foods, the function Of
which in the body is to provide
the flame" that gives the body
heat and which burns up the fats,
producing energy to perform labor.
Candy helps make the body
move and normally, in the proper
proportions, not only burns itself
UP daily, but it burns the fats Of
the body as well. The golf-play-
ing husband, the football-playing
or dancing son can both lessen
their fatigue and increase their
power for effort by eating candy
before their time Of activity and
during it. The fatigue the house
wife suffers when house cleaning
or shopping also may be warded
off by q bite or two Of confection-
cry during the time she is engaged
in these domestic duties.

are that it's going to stay.

Layer Sandwiches-Remove the
crust from a whole loaf of sand
wich bread, and slice the loaf
lengthwiSe in half-inch slices. A
different filling may be used be-
tween each two slices, or the
same may be used throughout.
Colored cream cheese makes the
finished sandwich look like a
piece Of layer cake. Wrap the
loaf in a damp towel and place
in the Kelvinator until just be-
fore serving, when it should be
cut in thin slices.
Ribbon Sandwiches - Ribbon
sandwiches are made in the same
way as the layer sandwiches ex-
cept that alternate slices Of brown
and white bread are used and
creamed butter is the only filling
used.
CheckerbOard Sandwiches-Make
two sets Of ribbon sandwiches
Of three or five layers each, one
set with brown bread for the top
and bottom slices, the other with
white bread at the outside. Wrap
in damp towels and place in
|Kelvinator for half an hour. Slice
the ribbon sandwiches in half
inch slices, butter the top Of a
slice and place on 1t a slice from
the opposite loaf. Build this up
to three or five layers, starting
half with slices from one loaf,
and half from the other. Wrap
in damp towels, return to the
Kelvinator and just before time
to serve slice down in thin slices.
Rolled Caviar Sandwiches-Re-
move the crustS from loaf Of
bread and wrap in q damp towel
for half an hour to moiSten the
bread. Spread a damp towel
on the bread board and cut thin
slices lengthwise of the loaf. They
should be buttered before being
cut. Spread with caviar, and roll
the bread up tightly as for a
Jelly roll, taking care to keep
the roll tight, especially at the
start. Butter the ends Of the
roll to keep it from drying out,
wrap tightly in a damp cloth and
put in Kelvinator until ready to
use. Just before using cut in
thin slices.
The rolled sandwich may be
varied by using two very thin
slices Of bread, one Of white and
one of brown. The white slice
should be spread with the filling,
the brown slice placed upon it
