 "It has developed policy that we do not hope to improve upon, :" the Governor added. We hope and expect to carry them forward as efficiently as you have done and when our tur.f comes to pass the roads on to some other organiza- ton, we shall be satisfied if we can leave the some kind of rec ord you have" he asserted.
 He said he expected to call on Maj. Elliott, if the need should arise, for advice and counsel. He hoped the officers would not lose their interest in Alaska and for the people of Alaska wished them success in their Army careers.
 Throughout the Territory" he concluded, "thsir departure is deep ly and seriously regretted"
 Other guests at today's meeting included Paul w. Gordon, Director of Education, Alaska Division of the Indian Service; R. H. Stock, road contractor; and J. B. War rack, building contractor.
 The Alaska Department of the Seattle Chamber of Commerce is an active aggressive body, deeply interested in aiding the Territory, declared Secretary G. H. Walmsley who returned this week from va cation trip to Seattle. He at tended two meetings where mat ters of interest to the Territory were discussed.
 It is keeping in touch with Brit ish Columbia authorities who have not lost hope of putting through the International Highway. Re- gently it communicated with Col Otto F. Ohlson, General Manager of the Alaska Railroad, relative to rumors that the road would shut down next winter. Col. Ohlson ad- vised it that no such plan was being considered by him, but he knew nothing of what was in mind in Washington. Authorities there might order suspension of opera tions for the winter unless the larger shippers of merchandise pat ronize the railroad instead of motor trucks over Richardson Highway.

Likes and Dislikes.

Prejudices, old and new, are the usual
generators of likes and dislikes. For ex-
ample, name alone often determines
your initial attitude toward stranger
If child incurs dislike for the X
family, living in his neighborhood then
all the KS he meets during the rest OF
his life are likely to share that childish
antipathy. An old prejudice often blocks
the road to many social contacts.
There is still another prejudice, ever
old in origin, ever new in its operation.
I refer to the sensitive sense of self.
which every human being cherishes in
the interest of self-pride and self-pres-
ervatiOn.
If a new acquaintance says or does
something that enlarges your sense of
self you Immediately conclude that that
person is likeable. To put it another way
you like those who are clever enough to
guess your unconscious weakness and to
transform it into an apparent strength.
This is a social trait which. in its uni
versal application. is possessed by very
few persons-those who are universally
loved and admired.
If your sense Of self is Debated by an
acquaintance. that is if he makes you
feel inferior. you dislike him. So if you

the newspapers. The President wrote
of the cloth, 1T exceeds my expecta-
tions"
Our first Presidents interest was not
alone in woolen goods, for IN this same
year, 1879. during Washington's tour OF
New England, he visited cotton mills
near Boston. OF these he writes a
short account pertaining to the spin
ming and weaving, which would be
rather too mechanical to prove inter-
esting reading for those unacquainted
with technical terms, but he finished by
saying: In short, the whole seems
perfect, and the cotton stuffs which
they turn out excellent of their kind,
warp and filling both now of cotton"
The making of sail cloth also at
tracted the President on this memor-
able tour. 1t was manufactured in
what today is the heart Of Boston, the
mill being on the corner of Frog lane
and Holyoke, now Boylston and Tre-
mont streets. OF his visit to this mill,
the President wrote: They have %
looms and IA girls. spinning with both
hands. the flax being fastened to their
waist" This mill turned out 40 yards
of. linen sail cloth a week
When homemakerS are sewing on cot
ton and linen goods. as well as woolen.
it may be pleasant to remember the
interest in all these textiles that was
paid them. and the help that was given
to promote the making Of these goods
in America by Washington. A new
note Of fascination is associated with

sigred for readers of this paper. The
many who are already making this
quilt can have the happy thought that
it was the nan in whose honor the
quilt was designed who fostered and
cherished the making of textiles in our
country.

Life in 0lden Babylonia.
HOMES AND CUSTOMS.

A 8 we look about modern city or

plastered on the outside, and
some have wooden framework.
II you could go back 5000 or 5000
years, and stroll through the streets Of
a city In Babylonia, you would find that
almost all the houses had walls built OF
brick. Few trees, except palms, grew In
that country: and lumber was hard to
obtain.
Most Of the houses were Of only one
story, but some Of the wealthy families
had tWo-story homes. To get to the
second story, persons in the house
climbed stairway which was usually
located in a courtyard Rooms on the
second floor were used for sleeping by
members OF the family. Servants slept
on the ground floor or in huts a short
distance from the masters house.
Even the best of homes had little
furniture, but there were rugs on the
floors, and enough chairs, tables and
couches to serve actual needs. Fur
niture made from imported wood was
costly.

was mild, this was no great hardship so
far as warmth was concerned.
Most families in Babylonia had to be
content with houses which contained
only one or two rooms The walls were
built Of cheap mud-brickS.
Men wore long robes, and 1t was
hard to tell them from women when
their backs were turned. Some persons
went barefoot. others wore sandals.
Jewelry was in high fashion. Women
wore bracelets. necklaces and ear
rings. and the same trinkets were some
times worn by men.
In very early times, it was common
for men in Babylonia to shave both
their faces and their heads; but fash
ions changed, as we know from pictures
left by these ancient folk. In later
centuries, 1t became a custom for men
to let their hair grow long and to curl
