DEAR MRS. BEECKMAN:

DEAR MRS. BEECkMAN:
I am a young man, II years
Of age, and I "chum" with a boy
a year older than I. His parents
are going to have a small we'd
ding anniversary celebration
that is, just inviting relatives.
There are no formal invitations,
but I know that I am going to
be invited to entertain the
guests, as I play the piano quite
well. I go to his home quite
often and his parents are very
nice to me. I have also met
some Of his Uousins, and they
have been very nice also. Do
you think I should go as only
his relatives will be there?
2. If I do go, should take a
gift. READER.
Since you know the family so
well, and since you are to be
invited not only as q guest, but
also, as you say, as an enter
tainer, see no reason why you
should not accept the invitation,
If you wish to. Surely they need
not invite you, if they do not
wish to have you come. And,
apparently, they are very fond
of you and consider you as "one
Of the family" Also since you
have it in your power to give
them pleasure, it would be a
very kind thing for you to do.
You're a fortunate gentleman to
have such a gift, so give it to
the world for its pleasure, too.
2. I suggest that you send q
lovely box of flowers to the
hostess, to arrive on the morn.
Ing of the party.

your own mind, why think Of
marriage at all at present?
It Would Be Quite Proper
DEAR MISS FAIRFAX:
Is it the proper thing foc a
brother to give his sister a
hope chest as a graduation
gift? Thanks for an answer.
LOUISE.
A hope chest is usually given
to an engaged girl for her
linens and other treasured bits
intended for her new home. I
conclude you are engaged, but
even if you are not, the chest
would be an entirely proper
gift to take from your brother.
To collect linens is a delight
full thing to do, it teaches girls
to be fine needlewomen-7al-
most a lost art-and they're
very convenient things to have
when the right man comes
along.

DEAR MRS. BEECKMAN:
I have been invited to an in

would be the correct thing to
wear? I have a red georgette
dress with long sleeves. Would
this be appropriate? C.M.
I doubt if the dance would be
50 informal that a dress with
sleeves would be appropriate. I
recommend an informal dance
frock, chiffon, say, without
sleeves.

LONDON, March 6.-Am- erican Secretary of Sta [ c StimsOn today issued a state ment that the United States is willing to reduce sea arm- ament more than 100000 tons if the fleets of other naval powers are reduced also.
 In the surprise statement, Secre- tary Stimson said:
 Tt seems to be the impression that the work of the American delegation at this conference is likely to result in an increase in- stead of a reduction in tonnage of navies of the world. The ssurest way to answer that is to give such results as seem to be within reach.

BRITISH ESTIMATES

LONDON, March 6.-British nav al estimates for 1930 show a net total of fifty-one million pounds against fifty-five million pounds for 1929, a reduction of four million pounds, said Albert " Alexander, First Lord of the Admiralty
 The decrease, he said, is due principally to reductions the Gov ernment felt it was justified in making in the shipbuilding pro- gram of 1929 in accordance with the policy already stated in Par lament by trimming naval build ing to meet the decreased needs produced by the Kellogg Pact and other peace instruments.

ALASKA MINING INDUSTRY GETS
 STABLE BASIS
All Branches Gain in Sta- bility in Prosperity,
 Says Stewart

The Alaska mining industry is on a more stable basis than for many years, and, as a whole. is in a pros porous condition, Mining Super visor B. D. Stewart told the Cham Der of Commerce today in a close up view of the industry generally And he was optimistic as regards the future of mining in the Terri tory.
 Illustrating his talk with geologic maps, he pointed out spots where opportunities offered for prospect ing, and declared: q have firm conviction that Alaska will continue to hear of strikes, such as the Taku, which will thrill even after we have passed from the picture.
 Is Becoming Stabilized
 As operations broaden and grow to large scale basis. mining be- comes more stabilized. This is what is taking place in Alaska to- day, MT. Stewart said. He cited the Alaska Juneau as an outstand- ing instance in the lode mining field. It's operations here last year were responsible for more than 50 per cent of Alaska's total gold production and it is on a more stable basis than ever before in it's history.
 The Fairbanks Exploration Com- pany has played a similar role in the interior placer fields. With it's dredges it is covering on a large scale a field which was either un- occupied or only worked by smaller individual units. It has stabilized the low grade placer mining indus try.
 A similar delevopment has taken place in the coal mining industry There are fewer companies engaged in production but they are on a stable basis. The Healy River coal mine, owned by Capt. A. E Lathrop has one of the most mod ern plants on the Pacific Coast. In- the Matanuska field methods oi mining have been improved with a consequent improvement in the product. Tn the Chickaloon, where 100000 tons of coking coal are available for mining through Gov ernment prospecting and develop ment several years ago, coal is being mined for use by the Alaska Rail- road for it's blacksmith shops and other purposes.

STUCK TO RESOLVE

When Arthur TWining Hadley re- signed the presidency of Yale uni versity in 1921, he carried out an intention expressed g years pre- viously. Shortly after his election as head of the university in 1899, he informed the board of trus- tees that he would retire from the presidency when he reached the age of 65 and more than a year before arriving at that age, re- minded the corporation of his de- termination to do so. He resigned the presidency in order to de- vote his time to the study of eco- monies, to writing and featuring.
 The Yale corporation noted these facts in minute of commendation, adopted at the time of the retire ment of President Hadley, and fur ther said: "Now he claims his free dom believing that at such a mid- way maturity Q change of occupa- ton is in many ways better than holiday for an active man.
 His fulfilled term of 9 years seems a brief incident in the his tory of the university, viewed from the beginning, but as chapter re- lating to the 18th presidency of Yale there will be more to record as to his administration than as to many which have preceded it."
 After paying tribute to Presi- dent Hadley's administration for the notable progress made by the university during it, the minute said
 Although the first president in it's history who was not a clergy man, Yale has experienced no loss in spiritual influence under MT Hadley. His baccalaureate and matriculation addresses have been- most valuable contributions to re- ligious literature keenly appre- ciated for their intellectual and moral stimulus by young ana olu The Christian ideals and tradi- tions of the university were never stronger than they are today" Was Only Child
 Arthur Twining Hadley was born in New Haven, Conn, April g, 1856 the only child of the late Prof James Hadley, of Yale College, and of Anne Twining Hadley, He was prepared for college at the Hop- kins Grammar School (New Haven) and entered Yale in 1872. He was elected to Delta Kappa in his Freshman year, Delta Beta Chi in his sophomore year, and Delta Kappa Epsilon in his junior year. He was also member of the Senior Society of Skull and Bones.

As the highest ranking official of the former Imperial German Navy, Grand Admiral von Tirpitz cherished two dreams.
 One of them, a gigantic naval force for the empire, became q reality. the other, the institution of a ruthless submarine campaign as a menace to win the World War, failed.
 While the latter played havoc with the shipping of neutrals and belligerents alike and exacted an undetermined toll of lives, it not only failed of it's purpose, but was an important factor, in the opin- ion of many observers, in the ey- entual defeat of the Central Pow CTS.
