BUY ALASKAN

Radio listeners have been hearing Broadcast Station N of Los Angeles advocating Buy American" dur ing the past week.
 Why not start campaign Buy Alaskan" for Alas ka The idea is not for have many times in the past edlto1alzed on the subject With the policy that has been existing for the last 10 yc2rs govern ment work that nothing in Alaska is good enough we think it is timely to copy and start Buy Alaska" campaign
 Insidious propaganda has been spread by Federal employees that nothing Alaska produces good worth anything; particularly does this apply governmental work Our timber is no good Our cabbage is no good Our potatoes good! Our coal good In fact if some Federal caGpet-bagger had charge of our gold mines, he would probably advocate closing it down be- cause our gold good providing he could draw his pay without working the mine.
 Let's try and get together and start Buy Alaskan" campaign and ccmpel these carpet baggers to buy Alas kan products wherever possible Locally the present tie situation gives us excellent opportunity.

COMMUNICATION
Editor Seward Gateway:

Editor Seward Gateway:
 Dear Editor-I wish to call atten- tion to a glaring example of the snug complacency and rule bound efficiency" of employees of the AL aSka Railroad.
 On November 28 Mr. Gill, station agent at Matanuska, received a tel egram for me stating that my wife was dangerously ill and asking me to return to Minneapolis at once.
 The Northwestern sailed from Seward on December 3, which gave MT. Gill plenty of time to locate me and make it possible for me to catch the ship. However, MT. Gill elected to be bound by the rules strictly, and deposited the telegram in the mails without making the importance of it's contents known to anyone.
 l have 1t from MT. and Mrs. krogh, who run the store and post office at Matanuska, that had they known of the urgency of the mes sage and they would have arranged have 1t delivered to me on time. or failing that, would have brought it out themselves.
 My homestead adjoins MT. and Mrs. A. A. Shonbeck, near Palmer, and everyone with the exception of MT. Gill knew where I was.
 The result of this piece of Ser vice" is that I received the message several hours after the Northwest ern left the dock, and lost 10 days not to mention my faith in hu- manity as we'll.

 Matanuska, Alaska. Alternative address: 1217 28th Ave. N. E., Minneapolis, Minn.

WHY MEN LOSE FAITH

A fortnight ago mere youth in California stole package of cigarettes and sentenced to five years in the penitentiary
 Simultaneously banker John F. Davis of Spokane Wash was in trial for having illegally extracted $2OO- UOO from the defnct American Bank convicted and sentenced to from six months to five years in prson
 In the case of the California youth he might be com pared to narcotic addict, having all know the burning desire for smoke In the Spokane probably 1000 frugal people who had entrusted their savings to the American Bank, found themselves penniless-may- nap to enter the bread lines, charge upon others equally sorey pressed for money and necessities of life
 The youth did not have $200,00O with which to poy astute lawyers nor like Davis was he prepared follow his example and take his case to the supreme court In all likelihood Davis will find some vulnerable spot in the law escape it's meshcs This is usually the ing public
 Men like Hamilton Fish are shouting from house. tops that reds must be suppressed Every demonstration by an exasperated public is branded as Communism.
 It will be interesting to watch how long this cond ton of rich escaping the law and mere children ln- carceraed for what amounts to petty larceny will endure before the last atom of faith in American legal nst tons is obliterated.
 It is not the hungry public that is to be feared it is the man whose sence of decency and justice grips hm and npels him to wipe out this condition at any cost
 If the writers of cigarette advertisements Will hurry to Washington with their before Congress ad ours they might pick up some splendid illustrations of Mature ir the Raw"

/ their staring, curious, inferential
glances. Not now.
There was only one thing to do.
After q lunch hour spent walking
blindly up and down Fifth avenue
Ellen decided on that course. She
would see Steven Barclay no more.
She would give him any excuse ex-
cept the real one. She could not
give him that. Let him think that
she was ungenerous, that she de-
spised him, that she was a false
friend. Let him think what he
would. He would never, she
thought, hill upon the truth. Surely
no one would be bold enough to
carry tales to him.
She would say nothing, offer no
explanations to the curious. She
would have to stare them down.
There was nothing else to do.
Throughout the afternoon she
treated Jenny Elkins with the same
cool disregard that Jenny herself
had shown in the morning. She
succeeded to the extent of giving
that young woman O puzzling and
uncomfortable afternoon.
1t was nearly 4 and Ellen had
begun to feel the lack Of her lunch
when Molly Rossiter telephoned,
with her usual disregard OF the fact
that Ellen was supposed to receive
only business calls during business
hours. Jenny answered the tele-
phone and very formally told Ellen
that she was wanted.
At that moment Ellen knew she
could have brought Jenny back to
her, chiefly because 1t was agony
for that little maybe to be silent
for any long period. Instead Ellen,
with just as much formality, &C.
cepted the telephone.
For once Molly was not In trou-
BILE. For once Ellen was glad she
had broken the store rules. Her
just. then.
Don't you suppose, honey. you
could get away from Dreamland to-
night?" Molly began. We're having
guests"
IT can easily. I was going to
anyhow" Ellen replied, conscious
that Jenny fingered In earshot. =
| She added curiously, "Who?" In a
voice SO low that Jenny missed 1t.
why" her mother hesitated
and then dubbed with laughter.
"Berts coming"
"I'll be there" Ellen promised.
AS she moved back to the end Of
the counter she wondered why her
mother called Myra's fiance

Whiteheads may sound less like
blemishes than blackheads, but Of
ten they are even more trouble
some.
II you have never made their
acquaintance personally, they are
those tiny white pimple-like SWELL
ings that appear on your chin or
around the sides of your nostrils.
Like blackheads, whiteheads are
skin that does not properly dis
charge the oil secretions that 1t
is supposed to cast off.
Because of fatigue or some
other reason, the skin doesn't
work energetically enough to cast
off the oil gathering in the glands.
1t doesn't reach the surface to
gaather dust and dirt. as black
heads do, but makes hard, tiny
lump undenr the skin.
You must prick the whitehead
before you can get out the bit OF
matter inside. Sterilize your needle
and then. when YOU have picked
1t and squeezed 1t out with bits
OF sterilized cotton, be sure to
treat the spot with antiseptic.
Then use your astringent and mas
sage your face.
Massage Is the best prevention
Of whiteheads. 1t stimulates cir
culation and you can't have many
whiteheads when your skin Is care
fully groomed and the blood Is CIR
culating freely to give life to the
skin. Massage stirs the facial
muscles into greater resiliency and
this makes for a healthy skin.
Use good creams and lively as
tringents. They contribute their
share and the act OF putting them
on livens UP the skin. You can
get rid of the whiteheads that you
have and prevent more II you make
up your mind.

You've always pretended to be-

rest of US. wouldn't have said a
word II you hadn't insisted. But

Ellen remembered abruptly that
when she had gone to the lockers
that morning small group Of wills
pering girls had been gathered
around the mirror. She knew most
of them, but as she had approached
they melted away before she had
had any opportunity to greet them.
What are they talking about,
Jenny?' she asked.
II guess you know well enough"
Jenny replied, airy again. ITS you

why, Jenny, how can you be so
silly as to think that his sending

There's more to II than that"
Jenny interrupted. MRS Bondy

ing out of his apartment at 8
o'clock on Sunday morning. Ellen
Rossiter, I'd never have believed 1t
OF you!"
Ellen was appalled,. Mrs Bondy
was a notorious gossip who held
forth from the linens on the fourth
floor. A sharp-eyed, aging woman
she saw everything, heard every
thing, told everything. Time and
again she had been proved wrong
In her facts but her stories were SO
circum stantial, SO loaded with IT'LL
lating detail, that seldom was her
veracity questioned. Ellen saw
that 1t had not been questioned In
this case.
Shaken and Mortified, she real
lied the futility Of protest. She
knew the store too well for that. II
at that moment she had sworn to
Sunday morning been miles from

not have believed her. Liready the

storing up the interview to relate
to her friends and acquaintances.
so you see how 1t is," Jenny
concluded. "A girl has to think Of
herself"
She shrugged ever so slightly
and moved away.
Ellen remained standing near the
elevator until Jenny had slipped
out of sight and the door had
swung after her. Presently she turn
ed and started stiffly down the
stairs. She would not go into the
common rest room where others
would cease their conversation as
she entered. She would not risk

Ellen. Ellen knew how Jenny felt
about customers.
Unfortunately at that moment her
attention was diverted by O renew
ed run on cretonnes. She was COM
PEELED to dash back to her own
place. Eventually she decided to
ask Jenny to lunch with her. She
really preferred to lunch alone, but
she had no Intention of permitting
her counter-mate to sur. over an
imaginary injury.
At the stroke of 70 and before
Ellen had q chance to speak, Jenny
disappeared. That was odd, too.
Generally there was some casual
discussion Of luncheon plans. Ellen
ran toward the employees stairway
and caught up with Jenny who was
making her way to the rest room.
"I1l set you up to lunch II you
don't 20 over so cents" she offered
guilefully. knowing how broke
Jenny invariably was.
Sorry" answered Jenny.
Look here" Ellen began sud-
denly and with spirit. 'lf you're an
noyed with me over something In
sist that you tell me what Is IT,"
The stairs were full Of hurrying
girls. All at once Ellen was pos
sessed Of the notion that Jenny did
not wish to be seen with her. Ger
tainly she was galloping up the
stairs,in an unusual manner.
Tell me-" she urged again.
TITS nothing" Jenny responded
suikily.
ut Is to, or you wouldn't act
this way" Ellen persisted. You're
not In such hurry as all this.
Let's stop a moment" +,
She walked through the door at
the second floor and into the prac-
tically deserted furniture depart
ment. After q longing glance at
the stairs and a fearful, fascinated
glance at Ellen's back, Jenny fol-
lowed
Now. out with IT," Ellen said.
Jenny was plainly embarrassed.
She looked at Ellen omforta bly,,
started to speak but instead locked
her lips in stubborn silence. As she
regaihed her composure Ellen saw
with growing nervousness that
Jenny had assumed a look Of cover,
curiosity as though there were
something new and disturbing
about Ellen which she had never
seen before.
i've always liked you, Ellen" she
said at last weakly, but O girl has
to think Of her reputation"
What In the world do you
mean?" Ellen demanded angriiy.
