ARRIVAL FROM INTERIOR THINKS CHURCHMEN NOT
 BE BROT OUT FEW DAYS

It may be several days before Brothers George J. Feltes and Mar tial o. Lapeyre, s. J., are finally rescued from their isolated igloo camp near Crater Mountain, where they were forced down Sunday, No- vember g, while flying from Me- Grath to Holy Cross. An Anchor age report said that the dog team was expected back in Takotna yes terday or today.
 Much information is brought to Seward by J. w. Stayton, who flew out with Harry Blunt from Ophir to Anchorage, and arrived by train last Tuesday.
 According to MT Stayton, the grounded fliers should be comfort able and safe. Immediately after locating Brothers Feltes and La peyre, Blunt dropped a bag of gro- ceries and later made another trip carrying blankets and other access sories to a comfortable camp. These were dropped by the plane, which was still partly covered by snow. The region where the fliers came down is one of the toughest In that part of the Kuskokwi1n coun- try, according to MT. Stayton, and to reach it from Ophir, the nearest point, would consume two days un- der ordinary travelling with dog team.
 When he departed, Charles liar land and Charles Gobel, the latter mail carrier, with two dog teams were headed for the scene of the landing. AS this was on Sunday, they are expected to reach the. fliers by Tuesday or Wednesday, will then possibly lay up one night to rest the dogs and, if storms do not interfere, arrive at Takotna by Sat- urday or Sunday.
 It was through MT. Stayton's di- rections that the lost flierS were located. He observed the plane passing over Ophir, where he plac- CT mines, and noted it's direction. By following this, Blunt was able to finally locate the plane near Crater Mountain.
 MT. Stayton left for the Outside for medical treatment after many years spent in the Interior, much of which was at Ophir and in the adjoining placer fields. Speaking of mining conditions, he said that the known rich deposits were about worked out, but that all those who are working ground are making a good living. It is the belief htat once young prospectors enter the region and prosecute further search much rich ground may be discov- cred. AS it is, there are no young men in the country, and the older miners are compelled to devote thelr attention to that which they nave and are sure of rather than seek other strikes.

Everyday Psychology

Mental Planes.

In everyday conversation one hears
persons describing other persons as liv-
ing on this or that level of existence
Much OF the ordinary neighborhood Cos
sip Is centered about such descriptions
Psychology Of the scientific variety is
nothing more than refinement of
everyday observation. You viii find the
best Of authorities describing human
activity as taking place on certain
levels. The recognized levels are few
but interesting There are two worth
mentioning here
Some persons think only Of food and
sleep, the latest sensation in the way
Of disasters, foods, famine or jazz music
Such things are sensational because
they arouse sensations. This mental
level is properly called the sensation
level.
The ether plane is called the intellec-
tual, The dweller thereon is not inter
ested in things as such, but in abstract
conception Of things On this intel
lectual plane the mind draws away from
reality and takes refuge in the icy
regions of philosophy and mysticism.
The question is often asked, On what
plane should one try to live? It's a
foolish question. To be mentally bal
snced one should try TO live on both

SUMMERTIME
BY D. c. PEArrE.

Already the sumac bushes are in
fruit. Their fuzzy, crimson berries are
clustered in splendid, tropic-looking
spires at the end of every branch. And
they make us think of Autumn, with
their sultry colorS and their Surcharged
abundance of yield. Indeed, a few of
the sumac leaves have begun to turn,
prematurely-but then, sumacs are i'm
patient plants.
once met a sumac gatherer In Vir-
GINA, having all my lie heard of them
but never having met one in the flesh.
For Sumac yields the finest tannin In
the world, according to some connois-
seurs. In fact, the name of sumac can
be traced back through shumac to
shoemake. Many folk say shumac.
and they are not wrong. In italy wild
sumac is a regular harvest of the
peasants. and Italian leather goods are
beautiful
Here in Maryland and Virginia our
own peasants" still gather sumac, and
few mills buy it Of them at very low
rates that are discouraging the native
industry. 1 suspect that the story Of
this old trade, dating to the colonial
period, is almost over now.
There is no sense in crying over this
sort of thing. Folk ways are always
dying out, and earnest ladies are al
ways trying to revive folk dancing and
hand weaving and native dyeing and
the like. 1t gives them pleasure and
is a harmless endeavor-but futile.
Customs do not die out without
sound reason, and when the tide sets
no one can turn it. What we should
remember is that new folk ways are
always springing up; only few admire
them because they are common now.
Our daily habits will, presently and to
other generations, be the quaint old
customs of 1881. when Americans were
so ruggedly simple and economical, and
there was leisure to do things slowly
I have heard people sentimentalize

If there is a good breeze SO much the
better.
Rain water and Washing.
In some Summer places, for instance,
where water supplies are not plentiful,
rain water is caught in tubs and other
containers, and strained to remove any
leaves or sediment that might come
from q roof. Or the water Is allowed
to settle and then is dipped out without
stirring up the sediment which would
be slight. AS rain water Is remarkable
for its softness, it is said to be the finest
water for washing. This is true whether
the water is for bathing or laundry use.

quently dipped in tubs of this rain
water, swtshed about and hung out to
dry. They are never allowed to be used
more than two or three days without
such rinse-waShing. No trouble seems
to be attached to such laundry work
which is entirely free from rubbing.
The sheets and pillow cases last amaz-
ingly long, and are always fragrant
with pure ozone.
Frequent Changes.
Towels have TO be rubbed little but
they, too, are replaced very often. Wear
ing apparel is changed before it shows
signs Of soil, and is given similar light
The wear and tear is the
slightest possible. Homemakers who
have been keeping house for a num-
Der Of years will agree that 1t is the
laundering of textile quite as much as
the actual wear that makes them give
out. Beware of letting the clothes get
too Soiled, beware of using or allowing
the use of strong washing solutions, and
save your money which would have to
be spent in buying new to replace the
worn articles.
