 A series of motion pictures were shown by MT. R. Markoe which were greatly enjoyed by the large crowd present.
 The first set of pictures shown were those taken at M ar m o II Island at the last Moose picnic. These pictures were followed by scenes at the baseball game played at Douglas between the Moose and the Elks, after which pictures de- picting wild life in Alaska came on the screen. Two comedies and a cartoon concluded this part of the entertainment.
 A sumptuous luncheon was then served in the banquet hall down. stairs after which, to the strains of Smokey's Moledy Orchestra. dancing was enjoyed and kept up vigorously until the small hours of the morning.
 A number of applications for membership in the Moose Lodge were received.

 DOES PERT TRICKS WITH WOOL FOR FALL
By DIANA MERWIN "A. r. Fashion EditOr)

PARIS, Sept. l.- Campus togs for the college girl follow lines of colorful simplicity.
 Despite a mode of plumed hats, rich yelvets and crinolines predict ed for the modern matron fall clothes for the modish miss in school cling to designs of pert prac- ticality.
 School skirts are four inches be- low the knee, waistlines are nor nal, hiplines flat and fitted, while novelty wools and simple silks are the stuffs of which designs are made.
 Campus coats are made of heavy rough wools designed with belts and snug close-fitting collars. Many school coat collars are made in scarf design to tie about the throat, while others are furred.
 One of the smartest school cos tunes is of brown and white strip ed spongy wool A suspender skirt lo NO1H OfCl d WlllsC hiiAtbSh WOOi blouse and the whole is topped with brown and white striped wool coat designed with intricate diagonal piecing in the back and collared with brown Indian lamb.
 Another coat is of dark red wool with a crossing scarf collar and lower sleeves of black astrakan, while a third is Of rough green wool belted snugly at the waist line and collared in brown fox. The smartest frock for school wear will be of lightweight wool ill trim tailored design, contrasting with last winters sport model lines. These tailored frockS are fashioned with close fitting bodices, semi high necklines and fitted flared skirts finished with bright hued belts of brick-red, golden yellow and grass-green. Dark browns, reds, greens and brilliant blues are the fayorite colors.
 Suits for the college girl are made of new ribbed jerseys, tweeds and tricots. They are designed with short straight. or fitted peplum

Fall, I expect to continue giving il- lustrated lectures in various cities on the world wonder that is Alas ka.
 What has impressed me, most of all, from Nenana to Unalakleet has been the generous hospitality, re- spect and honest admiration of Alaska's real old sourdoughs who are direct and outspoken and use terms that need no explanation,- a real pleasure to one accustomed to the inane vaporings of the shall low-minded people of the Great Outside?
 One of my main regrets is that my original intention and that of Bishop Crimont'S to visit Nome and the rest of the Seward Peninsula could not be carried out owing to the lateness of the season and the length of the rest of my trip, but hope in the near future to be

 During the short stay of the Glacier Priest in Unlakleet, his genial democracy endeared him to all the people and all were a unit in extending to him the keys of the town, and every effort was made to accord hm opportunities to film them, not only in their daily vacations, but in old customs such as making fire by friction, hunting with purely Eskimo in strumentS, were revived, SO that his movies would lack nothing and would portray Eskimaux life as it is and was.
 The old Russian fort, old burying grounds and all places of historical and local interest were recorded in making 2,O00 feet of movies and 200 pictures.

Activity gave place at once to the inertness of the writer and the team was unharnessed, but not without a scrap between two of his dogs, Bill and Katmai, who to show their contempt for a 50 mile run and their disgust at the weather conditions were giving a physical culture exhibition that ceased under the admonitionS of the Glacier Priest backed by whip skillfully used. And it was thus that the writer met the Glacier Priest.
 To introduce the Glacier Priest Priest to the readers of the Nugget and attempt to write of his many wonderful discoveries would be superfluos and beyond the writer's ability.
 Now, the Glacier Priest speaks for himself for the Nugget in the first formal interview of his winter activities.
 My 5000 miles, winter trip, from New York to Unalakleet, has been a very novel experience and some thing rather out of my line.

few.
Chicago hopes to get IL or IA out
Of the q seats Illinois will have.
In Washington, the city Of Tacoma
wants to be a separate district.
A dozen tentative plans are on file
in Michigan, where the out-statt

of the plans would leave two or three
incumbent congressman In one new
district to fight it out or move.
In Wisconsin two bills, one by thu

If It becomes impossible In othe
