DESTROY EXPERIMENT STATION |S WASTE,
 DECLARES DELEGATE

There has been great disappoint- ment in Alaska over the fact that the budget did not contain an ap- propriation for the continuance of the agricultural experiment sta tions in Alaska
 When the agricultural bill was before subcommittee of the App propriationS Committee, Delegate James WickerSham made a plea to the small committee to include $35, ,000 for the maintenance of the MatanuSka experimental station, and this was rather looked upon with favor by the members of the committee.
 But these efforts went for naught when the chairman of the Appro- priationS Committee made a re- quest of the subcommittee that no item be included in the general bill that was not recommended by the budget, and that no increase be made in the bill over the budget figures. AS a consequence the bill was reported to the House without any mention of the $35,000 for All aSka.
 When it was under consideration in the House. Delegate Wickersham offered an amendment to include the sum of $35,000 for the Mata : nuska station but it was defeated Tn making his plea for the amend ment, the Delegate ended with these words:
 T beg the House not to waste this station. Do not destroy it. It is the last thing that we have in the Territory of Alaska in the way of an agricultural experiment sta tion. It is not a saving to strike out the $35,0O0 appropriation but it is an economy to insert it. II you take it out you will have to go back there in five or 10 years and re-establiSh it, and thus lose your present investment and the sums necessary to rebuild it. To destroy it, is waste and not economy" The amendment was urged in vigorous terms by Representative LaGuardia, Colton, Williamson, Simmons, Burtness, Leavitt and Carter. It was opposed by Repre- sentative Stafford of Wisconsin and by Representative Buchanan, of the subcommittee, who. however fairly set forth both sides of the controversy.

He sat up and looked across at the old
sugar house.
That is the place to look for them, -"
thought he. That is just the place
they would go to- I will look around

So he started over to the sugar house
and just as he reached the door it
opened and out stepped Farmer Browns S
Boy on his way for an armful of wood.
Shadow lodged out of sight as only
he can. He did it so quickly that
Farmer Browns Boy didn't see him at
all.
Humans! Those two-legged crea-
lures called Humans are living in
there!" he snarled to himself. Shadow
has way Of snarling when things are
not to his liking. He snarled again
when he once more approached that

he snarled. I'll get in there now if
only to show them that I do as please
I'm not afraid of them and I'll show
them so
But Shadow didn't get in that night
That door wasn't opened again and
there was no hole. The one under the
edge of the roof which Chatterer the
Red Squirrel had used to get out and
Whitefoot has used to get in had been
blocked on the inside. So Shadow
curled up in retreat of his own and
slept the remainder Of the night. He
was wide awake at the first sounds in
the sugar house the next morning and,
slipping out of his hiding place. crept
to where he could watch the door of

and white accessories. That might
seem bit too obvious. AS a less strik-
ing gesture you might wear small bow
tonniere of field flowers in the red,
white and blue color scheme-blue corn
flowers, red poppies and white daisies.
One of the very latest fashions in
millinery consists OF the all-white hat.
There are new sailors of rough or shiny
straw of lily white tone, as well as close
fitting very small white turbans. One
Of these white hats is most attractive
when trimmed with a band of red,
white and blue ribbon or a cocarde
made of the three patriotic colors.
These new white hats are, as you no
doubt know, worn with dark dresses and
suits With a navy blue costume you
might wear a white hat with this bright
touch of color, or with black suit you
might choose a cocarde made of red,
black and white.
Small ribbon ornaments of this sort
are very much in the picture this sea-
son and you can arrange to have them
made by some nimble- fingered girl at
the counter where you buy your ribbon,
or if you have talents of this sort your
self you can without difficulty make the
cocardes yourself.

Your Baby and Mine
BY MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.

Few mothers realize how ineffective
are their voices. urging warning, call
ing, nagging. But they do notice that
the more they talk, the less the chill
dren heed. Words go in and out of
their ears like soft winds, making no
impressions.
But clocks and whistles and bells,
These work like charms. The child is
eager to show that he understands their
signals. They are effective.
Many mothers have come to use the
police whistle exclusively for calling
their children. AS one mother said:
ut takes some shouting to be heard
over the children's yells and shouts.
When my children hear the whistle
they must answer at once. Sometimes.
the whistle calls them for a treat or to
go to the library or the home of a
friend. More often it is just to make
sure that they are all right They
