preventive measures against Winter
chapping-the skin needs to be pro-

In this case choose a base which, along
with its protective qualities, also has
some bleaching properties.

Chicago Grand Jury
Vindicates Police

Chicago, Aug. 28.-(PD-A special
grand jury which spent eight months
and $4,000 to investigate charges Of
police graft and alliances Of politics
with crime reported Friday that it has
found irregularities only in q few in
stances but was unable to return in
dictments because there was not suf-
ficient evidence to prosecute the men
criminally.
It's conclusion was that there was
little graft in the police department
and its existence could be traced d.
rectly to the enactment of the ma
tional prohibition law and nothing.
In VI opinion, would go so far in
raising the standards of the police
department as would the repeal or
modification of the prohibition law"

What Lies Beyond?
Cincinnati Enquirer. )

Cincinnati Enquirer) Mans assumptions of knowledge are great but now small they appear in the face of new revela tions of the awful majesty of infinity! Out in Centaurus there is field of dim light visible only in photographs produced by the tre- mendous. most recent telescopes. Concerning this Dr. Shapely, of Harvard, recently has told us that l5OO00000 light years separate from that nebuols blur. It is difficult to think in such terms At present this represents the known limit of the cosmos.
 Only quarter century ago the universe con- corning which orators on pulpit and platform loved to speculate being stupendously colossal. A few years ago it had heightened to 3oOOOO light years in diameter through the conception and meas urements of Dr. Shapey and others And so the meadows of the stars have extended and their distance from earth been heightened And what lies beyond? Upon what do the Sentinel Stars look? Are there Sentinel StarsP Can nfinty possess limitations? The powers of the human brain flag grow weary in contemplation of the ma- jesty of God. And yet procaims his potency and power, complacent in the magnitude of his own conceitl
 The hundred-inch reflector at Mount Wilson somewhat troubles this conceit. It has given to us new worlds and universes, new independent systems undreamed by the gazers from Mesopotamian walls and their followers down to almost the present day These mighty supergalaxes, with as Dr. Shapely says maximum diameter of 100000 light years, look down upon our own modest sun member Of mere sub-galaxy, with the calm dis passion of the ultra-superor And what lies beyond?

REGISTER NOW!

Let us again urge the necessity of registration Tor the municipal election. This is the election in Alaska in which such requirement. is essential. Citizens may vote in party primaries and in general Territorial elections without registering All that IS necessary to participate in them is citizenship and certain period of residence in the precinct in which the would-be voter desires to cast his ballot But more is required for municipal voters. They can possess the requisites of citizenship and of residence but one thing further is necessary That IS regH'ration. Each individual in the community if h2 or she desires to have a voice in local gov elilnent must first register before that voice can b. heard at the polls. The next local municipal election occurs on April '. If you desire to par sicipa'e in the election of Mayor City Council and
 School Board, it is essential that you register before April A. on. which date the registration books are clcssd To date the percentage of persons regist- erng to the total potential vote of the community IS infinitesmal The registration Saturday was less than l50 while there at least 1200 persons in Juneau possessing all of the qualifications for voting Less than three weeks remain in which the remainder can enroll and failing to do that, they shut them selves out of the right to take a part in city government for the next 12 months

MOTHER AERIAL OBJECT LESSON.

he flight of Aviator Joseph Crosson from Fairbanks to Point Barrow with diphtheria anti toxin mother demonstration has been given of the wonderful efficiency of the airplane mode of travel in this territory of vast expanses nerseced by towering mountain ranges and tortuous water ways By air, in period of hours he journeyed distances that at this time of the year would have required weeks or months to traverse by land and could not have been accomplished at all by inland or coastal water routes. Over the most forbidding part of Alaska, and in her coldest regions he has flown approximately 20OO miles in winter without the slightest mishap.
 The worth of the aviator's service is beyond computation The value of human life is incal- culabe Without quick and safe delivery of the precious cargo carried by Crossons plane hundreds of Eskimos and scores of white residents on the northern Arctic shore would have been exposed unprotected to scourge that might have left but few of them alive. Aerial facilities supplied the only means to combat epidemic that threatened numerous fatalities a wide
 Without the introduction and the maintenance of airplanes by private interests in Interior Alaska Government health authorities would not have been able to assemble their anttoxin supplies or to dis patch them to the of distress Few if any of these aviation companies have realized any profit Some of them have experienced financial loss. Their hope of continued operation depends in large meas ure on the requirement. of contracts to carry mail and such support should be forthcoming at once
 The Crosson feat if performed merely in the course of business would have attracted no general attention-there have been other flights to Barrow AS humanitarian effort, the trip occasioned na- tonal interest, and the departure, arrival and return of the aviator was broadcast throughout the coun- try by all news agncies The errand of mercy should bring the Federal Government to a realiza- ton that aerial transportation, of which officials are quick to take advantage in emergencies, is worthy of encouragement.

The Ice-StOrm World.
(New> York Herald-Tribune. )


 Fresh snow creates silhouette world of sharp, contrasting blacks and whites. When the tempera- ture rises and the snow turns to sleet wrapping each twig and each blade of grass in icy coat a more eerie landscape comes to life The ice is not white; 1t is chamelon-like, accepting bit of the color 1t enwraps and mixing palette of its own
 Hemlocks, instead of bearing great soft white blankets on outspread arms stand with each sep arae needle framed in crystal case; the familiar deep green fades behind a sage-brush olive that echoes the color of the Western desert on Eastern hilsides. The cinnamon twigs of the scrub birches which against the shimmering snow hillside had lost themselves as black, transformed into warm magentas and lavenders akin to the mellow tones of cedar board Every twig has its own unfamiliar color Far hillsides Haunt unsuspected secrets You cross the valley to explore that sheer yellow patch on the slope, and it is brown grass, each shaft wrapped in translucent silver The sweet-fern patch on the near hill, which has seemed SO dead all winter, is rosy with sudden winter dawn
 It will be still another world tomorrow if the temperature holds close to the freezing point For the burden of those icy wrappngs is heavy and the ground will be filtered with broken twigs and boughs. The crystals will collapse and the dun branches return to familiar dead blacks and browns and whites. The color world lasted only as long as the ice storm.

Perils of Dieting.
(New York World.)

The death in Los Angeles of Louis Wolhein: the Captain Flagg of What Price Glory" and maker of many other strong-man parts in plays and movies. was attributed by his friends to ex- cessive zeal in dieting. It must in any case have been hastened by his desperate attempt to fit himself for the screen part of slender man. Big and husky looking he was, he had con- tracted cancer of the stomach. By reducing his weight twenty-five pounds in less than a month he had also so reduced his strength that he did not survive operation.
 This dieting is dangerous thing in excess When any person of either who is naturally of stocky build sets out to achieve such exces- sive slenderness as MT. Wolheim desired, danger is invited and catastrophe made possible. Many deaths of young men especially have been caused by excessive pruning of necessary foods from the dietary. A reasonable amount of fat caressing the bones is almost specific against the silent ap- proach of tuberculosis.
