help solve the entertainment for a
rainy day or make life easier for the
buster housewife.
Mrs. C. wonders why I have never
suggested sugar or -four sacks for dia-

Hose should be bought at least two
sizes larger than needed in order to
allow for shrinkage After two wash

having them sufficiently long one will
be surprised at the saving in mending." "

AUTUMN
Frog Names.
By ID. c. PEATTIE.
ATE into Autumn. when the leave

EIUS NdncS'
Y ATE into Autumn. when the leaves
of the buttonwood and the swamp
maple begin to twirl down with
IL every weary little breeze, and the
cat-tails are ripening their SILK,
and the argosies of milkweed seeds are
adrift upon the air. the little cricket
frog still sings his rather sad, metalllc
threnody. The sound. though small, Is
niercing. or at least shrill and carrying,
and for this reason he has been called
the cricket frog. Even his geological
name of Acris gryllus bears this out,
for "gryllus" means the cricket. In
another way, this likeable frog is cricket
like. and that is in his small slze-an
inch and half at the most-comblned
with the seeming ventriloquism OF MS
voice.
The cricket frogs fingers or the toes
of his fore-paws are not Webbed, tnough
the toes of his rear paws have the
family trait So long are his hind legs
that if you bend one of them back over
his head, it reaches his snout!
The tree frog also is much heard In
Autumn. He is smallish, being only
l to 2 inches long. The body is stout
and toad-like, and you might mistake
him for a toad, but you will know him
by the piercing rattle OF his short,
trilled song, answered from tree to tree
by rival singers.
II YOU wander about the marshy
tracts and low woods, you may near
Pickering's treefrog, rather exclusively a
Washingtonian. He looks much more
froglike and les StoadiSh than the COM
mon tree frog. and in size he doesn't
exceed one inch. On the back there is
an irregular, duSky mark like capital
*" and on the head there is bread
capital "V." This is one OF our COM
monest frogs and he sings right on into
the Autumn. In fact, so powerful Is
his singing pouch or gular sack that
when he has distended it to its full ex-
tent it is as large as all the rest of the
frog! He seems to be all throat. And
vet the sound that is emitted is in no
proportion to these high-foWn or full
blown efforts. You would think from
his throat, like mad saxophone play
ers cheeks. that a steam whistle was
going into action. but not very pierc-
ing monotonouS chirp Is all that hap
pens. And, really. I'm grateful. One
can have too much, even OF so HARM
less a creature as frogs, as Pharaoh
discovered
The leopard frog is perhaps the last
to seek Winter quarters, though 1t falls
rather silent as the sadness of the
closing season oppresses this volatile
and vocal lover. A big fellow, three TO
four inches long. with yellowish under
parts and black spots on his olive or
bright green back and legs. this is a
highly -costumed, operate sort of froggy.
indeed. and his song is known to the
country boys around Washington as
"Bloodynoun, bloodynoun" Less dra-
matically and less flatteringly I've
heard it called a snoring croak.

VIRGINIA CREEPER.
Parthenocissus quinquefolia.

IF the vine has five leaves it spells
friend" but three spell foe"
What more simple rule for identif1-
cation need we have? The lovely
Virginia creeper has often lost its
life because it was mistaken for the
wicked poison ivy.
Cousins are very different. even in
the plant world. I am sure that few
would connect the delicious Concord
grape or even the SOUR grape OF the
deep woods with the. Virginia creeper,
but they are cousins just the same.
Over castles, shackS, wounded trees
and dilapidated fences the creeper
covers unsightly signs Of decay and
plays a most important part in the
food program of the many Winter
birds. From Manitoba to the Atlantic
Ocean, and even as far South as Cuba,
the Virginia creeper goes silently but
surely on her way and, like the tor
! toise, she arrives at her destination.
This famous traveller feels her way
along and puts out tendrils whose
branches have curved tips. These little
tips fasten to the surface on which they
are travelling and press hard upon It,.
The little feet turn bright red and on
the undersurface have little cushions
which secrete sort of cement. In a
Gay or two they are so firmly attached
to their foundation they can hold the
weight of the branch, and Darwin
found that a tendril with five disk-bear-
ing branches was strong enough to hold
the weight of 10 pounds, even though
the vine was old and had been through
many gales and SHOWS
In the Spring the leaves take on
beautiful shiny green, the flowers are
greenish clusters and appear in July,
but it is the cadet blue berries, hanging
from their red stems. which attract our
attention in the late Autumn. The
leaves, compounded of five leaflets. turn
a most glorious red, and no matter
where the creeper has decided to estab-
lish itself. it is lovely sight. When
it has a background of dark green you
will admit there are few sights more
beautiful

JUNEAU BEST TOWN UNDER FLAG TODAY,
 DECLARES A. B. CAIN

Juneau is the best town under the American Flag today" declared A. B. Cain, Northwest field rep resentative of the Catholic Ex- tension Institute, who arrived here last Saturday on his annual trip to the Territory. He will be here several weeks attending to busi- nezs matters.
 "Bremerton, Wash, with it's Navy Yard payroll, is another outstand- ing community, but even it cannot point to such business in indus trial stability as Juneau possesses MT. Cain said.
 Prior to coming here, MT. Cain spent sometime in Ketchikan. Con- ditions there are more quiet than usual for this time of the year. However, there is no sign of dis couragement or pessimism among the people of the community and their faith in the towns future was evidenced strikingly recently by the opening of a new large retail business house, equal to any thing in the north.
 AS usual, MT Cain expects to visit western and interior points as far north as Fairbanks before returning to his home in Seattle.

TOO N ANY M N SEEK WORK AT
 CH|CHACOF MINE
Island Community Is Con- fronted with Unemploy-

Chichagof is confronted by an unemployment problem. Too many men from Juneau have gone there expecting to obtain work with the Chichagof Mining Company.
 The company is operating it's mine and mill, but it has not only a full force now but also a wait ing list of applicants who are liv- ing on the Chichagcf island. There is no prospect at present or in the immediate future of any per sons from Juneau obtaining em- ployment with the company.
 James l.. Freeburn, Vice Presi- dent and General Manager of the mining company, has sent to the Daily Empire an advertisement warning persons of the futility of seeking employment at Chich- agof.
 We wish" he writes, "to avert a condition that will become ser ious locally if men continue to come to Chichagof unless they have been hired by the company. "
