As has been stated both sites are ideal places in which to live and the surround ing countryside is magnificent.
 If one really desires peace and contentment, the secret of long life, that can be found at Hope and Sunrise. With what is con- sidered the best highway in Alaska serving both places, there is no reason why in the years to come these towns should not develop as a center of both inning and agricultural as well as fur farming activities.

Americans behind the racket. They have learned that bootleggers bar gain for liquors in Juarez on a basis of delivery on the American side.
 Many smugglers prefer to run their loads across the international boundary just above Fl Paso, where only a monument marked line separates Old Mexico and the Am erican State of New Mexico, but as it passes here and turns southeast towards the Gulf of Mexico the Rio Grande is not much of river nor very grand. It is shallow and sluggish, and sometimes a good broad jumper could hop across it.
 As long ago as 1899 an effort to make the temperamental Rio more tractable resulted in establishment of a smugglers' haven.
 Cordova Island is no island at all, but bit of Mexico hitched on to Fl Paso 30 years ago when the Cordova Cutoff was negotiated as flood prevention measure and the Rio Grande was trundled further south into Old Mexico. While the bed of the stream ordinarily marks the international line, artificial changes in it's course do not count with the International Boundary Commission.
 Shaped like a fan, Cordova Island makes a big swing into Fl Paso, and many of the streets in the southern part of the ancient city, Fl Paso del Norte (the pass of the north run blind into the island"

FL PASO, Tex, April 22.-Good whiskey brings Sz a pint in saloons in Juarez, Mexico, a stones throw across the Rio Grande.
 On this side bootleggers deliver the same grade for $250 a pint. In that spare 50-cent spread lies a thrilling story of relentless warfare against smugglers.
 Physical conditions favor snug glers. Among Mexican peons is an ever-ready supply of manpower ea- ger to risk life or arrest to earn $1 to $2.50 spending 10 minutes wad- ing the shallow, murky Rio Grande under the burden of a case or two of liquor.
 Opposed are United States cus- toms, border patrol and immigra- ton officers.
 The result has been almost night ly warfare minor outbreaks to pitched battles.
 So accustomed has Fl Paso be- come that the city sleeps soundly while rifles and pistols bark Lit tie attention is paid even when fights occur within city limits.
 Risking their own lives noncha- lantly, the smugglers display an utter disregard for others lives. Fourteen United States officers have been slain in and near Fl PaSo.
 Juarez and Fl Paso, center to center, are six minutes apart by trolley. Not since the border pa trol was established four years ago has an American citizen been found in the smuggling. Some officers believe there are

Metro-G -Goldwyn- Mayer, from first to last, has done a wonderful job with it's great musical extravaganza, '"The Hollywood Revue" which plays at the Palace Theatre for the last times tonight. It has shown us what talking films can do, and if they have reached this stage of perfection already, what next?
 Not one star, but dozens-names to conjure with in the motion pie ture world, pass in review before your eyes, each with song, dance or skit, each with his or her proper balance; each, often with a back ground of gorgeous girls in gor- geous settings, brilliantly illumin- ated with color and sound.

Intelligence.


No one knows just what intelligence
is. At the same time everyone thinks
he does. We all have our standards for
judging the intelligence of others.
After all, intelligence is a perform
ance rather than a thing. We know 1t
only in terms of how cleverly or well
some one does something that is In
some way related to our conception OF
common sense. Some behave as gen
fuses" Some behave little less so, and
are know as "talanted." AS you go down
the line. you have in turn the aver.
age" the mediocre" the stupid" and
the deficient" These degrees of doing
things WELL if at all, constitute the
MARKS on a fairly disable yardstick OF
intelligence.
But given such a yardstick, there
seems to be some difficulty in using It,
Almost anyone can measure the grade
Immediately above or below his own
When he goes in for measuring intelli-
gence two or more degrees up or down
from his own, he begins to get confused
That accounts for the truth of the
saying: "Set a thief to catch thief
AGNES that the sober do or should feel
about as he does. That's why the in
sane imagine that there's something
wrong with the minds Of the sane
That's why the average" man thinks
that there is such thing as an Gin
sanity genius" That's why mediocre
or stupid" folks so often find fault
with the talented" and why the "tal-
ented" are impatient 18th them.

causes little blackheads and pimples on
the shoulders and back? Can you tell
me how to get rid OF them?
Answer You are few pounds over
weight, but / think that Is due to lack
of active exercise. A girl of your age
needs to take from 10 to 20 minutes
every morning for setting-up exercises.
Take a brisk walk outdoors every day
and attend a gymnasium or swimming
pool at least twice week. If you do
this you will keep your body trim and
your muscles firm and supple. A seden-
tary occupation is the cause Of fiabby
muscles, heavy hips and poor posture
in great many cases. I shall be glad
to mail you my set Of beauty exercises
that you may take regularly every
morning before breakfast. If you will
write for them. Inclose a stamped,
self-addressed envelope and ask for
Beauty Exercises" You do not need
needs well balanced menus, but you
should not overeat at any time.
(2) The blackheadS and pimples are
due to obstructed oil glands (poresl
and general SluggiShness of the skin.
AT bedtime scrub your back and shoul-
ders well with warm water and a mild
soap. Use a long-handled bath brush.
Rinse well in cold water and dry. APP
ply little of the following lotion and
allow it to dry ON the skin: One dram
Sulphate Of zinc, one dram sulphuretted
potash. four ounces rosewater. Dissolve
the Sulphate of zinc In half of the rose
water and the potash in the other halt
and mix the two solutions together
Apply with a piece of clean absorbent
cotton. Two or three times a week,
after cleansing the back and shoulders
apply towel wrung out in hot water
Repeat the hot applications several
times and have some one press out
the larger blackheads. Battle for
several minutes both before and after
the Steaming process with hot boric
acid solution, which is made by dis
solving one heaping tablespoonful of
boric acid in one pint of boiling water.
Allow it to cool before using so as not
to burn the skin. Blot the skin dry
and apply little sulphur ointment,
zinc or boracic acid salve to the sore
spots and dust with dry boric acid
powder. Tanning and mild sunburn
combined with these local antiseptic
measures are very helpful and heal

Modest Greatness

When Byrd returned to peopled
shores, the grim Antartic left behind,
the people crowded, out of doors to
hear what he might has in mind. 1t
was a splendid chance to boast, a
chance the whole world seldom brings,
to point out the surging host that
he had done heroic things. He might
have pointed then with pride to that
great record he had made; but he
let all such chances slide, a modest
manner he displayed. He talked of
Scott, that dauntleSS soul, who struggled
early, struggled late. to hang his flag
upon the Pole, and found he was some
weeks too late. To Amundsen he handed
praise, to all big men who've done and
dared extolled their high, courageous
ways-in which how splendidly he
shared! He hung no wreaths on Mr.
Byrd, or on his storm-swept caravan;
he talked some time, and every word
was tribute to some other man. The
cheap man, having done thing which
may of some distinction smack, is much
inclined to dance and sing, and pat
himself upon the back. He is inclined
to hire a hall, where he may talk three
hours or nine, and show the people,
one and all. that his accomplishments
are fine. He likes to get large brass

Eccentric People.

What do you mean when you say that
so-and-so Is eccentric? Literally, OF
course, the term means "off center"
Actually, it means almost anything you
want to say, when you unsympathetical-
ly try to describe personality that
doesn't measure up to your idea Of &C
ceptable or sanctionable behavior.
There are two sorts Of eccentric peo-
ple-normal eccentrics and "cranks."
The normal eccentrics are those who
possess so much originality that the
average man can't understand them.
They have such vivid imaginations that
their minds rotate in orbits too far for
the average mind to comprehend. When
you say that such person Is eccentric
you are only exposing your own narrow
mindedness. He Is eccentric so far as
YOU are concerned, simply because he
thinks on a higher plane than you do.
