Just
Every
Day
Sense

MISS %" asks whether there
NA are any men left in the
world who know what constancy
means, and who rather would
have the devotion Of one woman
than the light kisses Of many.
I believe so. For every heart
breaking experience, there is a
story Of nobleness and self-secri-
fee than counteracts its gloom.
Only the other day in an Ari-
IONA town a young bride saw her
husband shoot himself and later
found that she was no wife at
all. She had given her live to a
bigamist and her house of life
fell with a suddenness that left
her stricken.
She has had such blow that
it may take years for her to re-
cover. But. if her mind is healthy
she never will believe that all men
are biganlists, merely because one
lied to her.
There is a great deal of fine
love wasted upon scoundrels, but
no more, I think, than the affec-
ton that men spend upon frivo-
lous and unworthy women.
Il
rEHE male is not to prone to
l. ronancing. He does not
take his love so seriously as we
Go, and therefore escapes many
griefs to which woman is an easy
prey.
Miss %" should take a hitch
in her belt, powder her nose, and
set about to find herself another
and a better sweetheart. It's un-
wise to pine over a man who
places no value upon constancy
and who runs from one light love
to another.
And, hard as it may be to do,
there is nothing so beneficial to
the character or so excellent for
the soul as to buck up after a
broken heart and begin picking
up the pieces.
Then, again, having a heart
smashed at % is one Of those Sex
periences of life" over which we
thrill at the movies and of which
novelists write so feelingly.
DRAMATIC yourself little, girls,
and practice some of the gallantry
and courage that you admire so
much in the films.
Life IS just as exciting and Won
derful as you make it and a dash
Of such sorrow only gives zest
for the days that are glad.

by the Federal government and I am of the opinion that this can- not be achieved under the present system of selecting the Commits sioner of Education.
 Boxing Commission Comment The Territorial Boxing Commis- sion created by the last Legislature has functioned satisfactorily, Gov. Parks reported. ''The members have been diligent in performing their duties and rules and regu- lations that were promulgated by them seem to be satisfactory. The receipts deposited by them with the Treasurer exceed the appropria- tion made for their expenses.
 The Historical Library and Mu- scum in its specially designed quar- ters in the new capitol is able to play its part more effectively. The Governor recommends that the building formerly occupied by it and other Territorial offices be loaned to the city of Juneau for public library building, providing that the municipality pays the costs of its upkeep. The site, he added, should be a part of the park that some day will be, created in front of the new capitol and he suggest ed the legislature authorize trans fer of title to the lot to the Fed eral government when and if all of the other property in the block is acquired as a park site.
 Urges Real Budget
 Characterizing the present isys- tenn of requests for appropriations as. budget in name only" the Governor asked the legislature to take steps to remedy the situation. Under present methods, he said, excessive estimates are encouraged in the hopes that they will by good fortune be allowed. He asked for a real budget board, composed of Governor, Auditor and

BLEND ALONE WILL
 NOT INSURE PERFECT
 FLAVOR IN COFFEE
If the Blended Coffees Are Not Roasted Evenly,
 Flavor Varies

Tn the origination and perfection of Controlled Roasting, Hills Bros.
 accomplished something that no other coffee roaster has yet achieved. By this patented process, the degree of roast is positively controlled. The result is that Hills
 Bros. Coffee is absolutely uniform. The reason for the success of Controlled Roasting is that this
 process roasts a few pounds at a time instead of in bulk. By a
 continuous process these small
 amounts of coffee flow through the
 roasters in a steady stream, roast ing a little at a time. Automatic
 control of both the flow and the
 heat absolutely prevents variation in the roast. Bold as the claim may seem, no other coffee has the flavor of Hills
 Bros. Coffee. Wherever Hills Bros. Coffee is introduced it quickly becomes the preferred brand.
 Hills Bros. Coffee never "goes stale," because it is packed in vacuum. By this process, air, which destroys the flavor of coffee, is taken from the can and kept out. Ordinary cans, even if air-tight, do not keep coffee fresh. Ask for Hills Bros. Coffee by name and look for the Arab-the trade mark-on the can. Sold by grocers every where.

"LOvE RACKET" HASUNUSUALLY
 STRONG THEME
Dorothy Mackaill, with Fine Cast, Stars in Play
 at Coliseum

Dorothy Mackaill proves to be a star of the first magnitude in ''The Love Racket which showed for the first time at the Coliseum Theatre last night and which will be shown for the last times to- night.
 With Miss Mackaill is a group of exceptionally fine stage and film actors. Sidney Blackmer, one of Broadway's idols, shows to great advantage Alice Day, Myrtle Sted- man, Edmund Burns, Edwards Da- wis, Martha Mattox, Edith Yorke and others give performances of rare excellence.
 The plot of "The Love Racket is of exceptional strength and in terest.
 The heroine is betrayed by man she loves; in desperation she shoots at him, and misses; years later she and the man she is going to marry are on the same jury trying an- other woman betrayed by the same manl Knowing the dead man, she refuses to convict the girl-mother who shot him, and-but there's a treat in store that mustn't be spoil ed by telling about it.
 "The Love Racket" is adapted from the play "The Woman on the Jury" by Bernard K. Burns, and was directed by William A. Setter.
 When Miss Mackaill was making the final scenes in the picture she slipped while crossing a creek on log and turned her ankle.
 Miles from Doctor
 The company was in the Verduga Woodlands, some miles from the nearest doctor, and the star was in considerable pain.
 The electricians on the set quick ly hooked up a huge studio lamp, turned the heat upon the injured ankle and Miss Mackaill was soon able to resume her work before the cameras and microphones.
 There have been numerous in- stances of the healing power of the studio lamps, but this is the first time that one has been used upon a star
 Added attractions are "The Danc- ing Gobs," Vitaphone Acts and news reels.

awarding allotments, the Governor said it was not possible to prevent payment of pensions to persons not entitled to them and he asked the Legislature to authorize the use of tax collectors to investigate ques- tionable cases.
 In the past two years, IT per cent of all disbursements by the Terri tory were made for the relief of destitution and care of indigents including pensions, Pioneers Home dependent children. The appro- priations for these purposes tcsaled
 $406,O00. With the exception of the Pioneers Home, the system was described as unsatisfactory n d remedies were suggested.
 Federal Highway Act
 At some future time it is cer- tain we shall be expected to come under the Federal Highway Act and we may well begin to consider this matter" the Governor said. "One of the requirements that must be met is the existence of an ad- ministrative organization acceptable to the Federal government. Tn my opinion this will be impossible under the present system of select ing a Highway Engineer. The proper discharge of the duties of that office demand, insofar as it Is possible, that it should be removed ifrom politics"
 Hfff sty -aaf School Change -.avfsabie The Governor also urged the re- moval of the Commissioner of Ed ucation from politics. The dual system of schools which exists in Alaska is not satisfactory, he con- tended. Eventually, he added, the adm n is ration of the Indian Schools will be turned over to the Territory under an arrangement whereby the Federal government will defray. the expenses of operat- ing the Indian schools and of building new buildings, and the Territory assume the cost of admin iStrative overhead
 Continuing he said: However, before such plan can be con- sidered it will be necessary for the Territory to have an acceptable or ganization qualified to meet the requirements that may be imposed

Moreover, this board should have authority to demand all information neces- sary to determine whether or not an appropriation is justified, Until this is authorized no one will know whether or not proposed expendi- lures will be commensurate with probable revenues
 In closing the Governor drew attention to the Alice in Wonder land system, or systems of fiscal accounting that are now required iby the various Territorial statutes.

NORMA SHEARER
 WINS TRIU M P \ IN CAPITOL PLAY
Their Own Desire Will. Be Repeated Tonight
 and Tomorrow

Norma Shearer in penetrating study of present-day social stand ards called "Their Own Desire" is the particularly effective screen at traction which opened at the Capi t3l Theatre last night and which will be repeated tonight and to- morrow night.
 The all-talking cinema play was adapted from the novel by Sarita Fuller which tells the story of a girl whose happiness came danger ously near illustration through the machinations of father who had grown tired of his wife, and sought diversion in other quarters. Unusual Film Subject While Their Own Desire" is not exactly phase of the 'sins of the fathers idea, it gives a clear-cut picture of the effect of parental incompatability on chill dren, which in itself is something rather novel for screen use.
 Miss Shearer as usual gives her intelligent and faithful perform ance of a role that might easily have been ruined by overplayed sentimentality. Lewis Stone and ! Belle Bennett as the parents are splendidly cast, and other capable performances are given by Robert Montgomery, Helene Willard, Ce- cile Cunningham, Mary Doran and June Nash.
 1 No Lack of Action Although the picture is primar- fly sociological study, there is no lack of action, the scenes be- ing widely separated and depicting such activities as polo swimming dancing parties, motor boating, and even an exciting search by sea- plane, these particular scenes be- ing done with skillful realism and effective photography.
 Of particular interest, however, are the underwater scenes taken during a swimming pool sequence in which the expressions on the persons swimming underneath the surface have been obtained with amazing clearness by means of waterproofed, submerged cameras.
 Their Own Desire" was directed under the joint supervision of E. Mason Hopper and James Forbes with Forbes also responsible for the dialogue.
 Added attractions at the Capitol are Charles Chase in Pip from Pittsburgh" and Boy Friends" in Ladies Last"

 Other Industries Affected
 Alaska's fur trade, exclusive of seals, in 1928 aggregated $4,513,863, a gain of about five per cent over 1928, but the 193O receipts were much smaller. In fact, it was es- timated that the trappers received 50 per cent less in that twelve month than was paid to them in 1929.
 Forest products likewise showed the effects of depression. However, new capital is expected to exploit this field in the near future. It has been given licenses for water power development, and the Gov ernor pr dict e d manufacturing plants will begin during the next biennium."
 Banks at Normal
 Combined resources of Territorial and National banks, June 3O 1880. were: capital $915, ,OO0; surplus and undivided profits, $935 400; deposits, $12,252,000. Total assessed valu- ation of incorporated towns was $25, ,512,663.
 Depression has affected Alaska ''in some degree, but we are less affected than most of the other parts of the United States. There are number of unemployed in some of the larger communities but most of them are recent arrivals. Steps have been taken to meet this situation by providing work on sev- eral projects, roads, and rivers and harbor improvements" from Fed eral funds. Fisheries are expected to absorb most of the surplus la bor this summer.
 Concluding his general survey the Governor declared:
 T see no reason why, if we are prudent in our expenditures for the next two years, we should not emerge from this period of adverse conditions in excellent shape and without having experienced un- necessary suffering or placed added burdens on industry or individuals. ,
 Suggests Building Program l'
 Urging the necessity for a pub lie building program, the Governor declared: The time is not far distant when institutions will be an absolute necessity" to meet the demands for taking care of the aged and unfortunate and incor- rigibles." As financial resources are limited, it will be essential for the adoption of a continuing program, setting aside funds each biennium in advance of needs so that money will be available for construction when time is ripe. By careful planning and a distribution of costs over a period of perhaps ten years the Territory will be able to handle the situation.
 He urged that the Highway En- gineer be given authority ito pre- pare and approve plans for all
