THE LARGER UNDERSTANDING" !"

When the National Shoe Retailers Association recently held it's annual convention in Chicago one of the biggest bits of trade to be disseminated was the startling announcement that womens feet are getting bigger Time when size three was one of the most popular numbers the shelves of the shoe dealer Today they are virtually ex- tinct The higher brackets once for the exclusive of the tall woman, are now shared by her more diminutive sisters The average size for women of this age is five or six "Yes, there is bigger size trend noticeable in the last 25 years" ac- knowledged the President of the Association Just minor social trend of the kind so frequently men, tioned these days
 Except for the poets and romantic fiction writers probably no one will have for regret that this thing has to pass. From practical stand point it is highly desirable Bigger feet for women more leather to be required for shoe manu- fracture which in turn hides to be tanned from more COWS, horses, pigs, allgators, or what not that have to be herded by cowboys, horse wranglers pig-boys and whatever or whoever it is that beds down the little gators at night, more work for packers and more for the workmen who make the leather into shoes. Emersons old law of compensation is right the job as usual and just when technocracy almost has the country by stranglehold this bigger shoes for women bus- ness may be just the agency needed to break its grasp.
 After all why shouldn't womens feet be bigger now than they were 25 years ago? In the past quarter century, women have emerged from the se- clusion of their homes, assumed places in the work aday world, and have properly taken activities appropriated by men their own exclusive domain. They have learned the knack of standing on their feet and if doing they acquired bigger feet, the price not large one to pay

MT. Hoover and Congress.
(New York Times.)

All Presidents of the United States apt to be treated cavalerly by Congress during the last two three months of their term of office. 1t is of record that before leaving the White House
 in 1909 President Theodore Roosevelt sent message
 after message to Congress to which it paid no more
 attention than to any chance breeze blowing over the Capitol President Hoover is of well aware that his appeals will almost certainly fall
 on deaf Congressional In fact it might almost seem that his recommendation of plan a
 measure its ignoring rejection This state lof things, however, does not alter the duty lessen
 the responsibility of the President His constitutional
 mandate runs till March 4 Until then it is his sworn obligation not only to see that the laws of the United States are enforced, but to make such recommendations to Congress he believes to be
 lin the public interest and to withhold his signature from bills that he cannot in good conscience ap- prove.
 These functions of outgoing and politically ldisregarded President have often been of great vice to the country. MT. Hoover may make them so again. In any case he is merely acting becometh la President. He must do his full duty up to the last hour of being in office There is every in
 dication that President Hoover intends to do this;
 that he will remain hard-working Chief Executive to the very end; that he will not abate his vigilance
 Tor give way political expediency in passing judg ment upon proposed laws, and in interposing his
 veto whenever he thinks that the higher interests Iof the Nation require it.
 Perhaps the Presidency never more appears to be a thankless job than when the incumbent is labout to relinguish it. Nevertheless the work must Ibe done the official duties discharged whether Con-
 gress will hear forbear. MT. Hoover by exercis-
 ing his full authority till the last moment of being
 in power, may display a fidelity and tenacity that
 will hereafter to hsighten his reputation.

The Real Farm Problem.
Cincinnati Enquirer.)

The major error in our approach to the farmer s plight has been the assumption that his problem is distinct from problems of the country as whole. Every device tried proposed behalf of the farmer has been palliative measure calculated to enrich agriculture at the expense of the rest of the population. No account has been taken of the fact that the farmers troubles have arisen from the profound reversal of national economic position before the world.
 Farming profitable for many decades in America because debtor nation and for egn countries eagerly took exports of raw com modities in payment of interest the money we borrowed from them With the rise Of our manu- featuring industries and the shift of position from debtor to creditor the vast markets previously open to farmers have dried up. Owing vast in goods because of tariff and therefore must reduce their taking of exportabe materials, including farm products World depression accen- tuated this process.
 Domestic allotment plans, parity plans, export debenture plans, might achieve artificial im- provement of the farmers circumstances at the pense of the rest of the country. But they at bottom merely taxation of the consumer to sub sdize a group of producers Real solution of the farm problem probably lies in reversing the policies which are throttng our logical expansion as a creditor nation.
 substantial reduction of tariffs might enable foreign peoples to meet their obligations to us and in the long run restore to the farmer the markets abroad which he has lost and which are essential to any enduring improvement of his position

CHANGE NEEDED IN PRINCIPLE.

The other day the Ketchikan Chronicle editorially urged caution in drastic changes in fisheries regu- lations" taking occasion to say a word of warning against the abolition of fish traps It advocated the idea of friendly cooperation with the cannery operators as expressed by ex-Senator Hickman as a commendabe one"
 The Empire is long on record as opposing trap abolition and it is convinced that there is room and need for both traps and seiners in the salmon fishing industry under proper administration. And by proper administration is meant control of the fisheries of Alaska by the people of Alaska They are the ones most directly concerned with the fisheries and the part they and ought to play in furnishing employment to the residents of the Territory
 As long control and administration is vested in the Federal Government it will be impossible for Alaskans to have much if anything to say about the policies put into effect The change that is most needed is not one of regulations, nor of official personnel It is the all-important one of principle. The evil of the present system is that Congress is the sole authority for the laws governing the fisheries. What must have, in order to make the fisheries of the greatest possible service to the Territory is control by Alaskans through their Ter ritorial Legislature Until that change shall have been made, there will always be widespread dis satisfaction about the regulations and criticisms of
 
 and administer them
 With the advent of the 73rd Congress Delegate Anthony J. Dimond, as pledged by his own and the program of his party, will undertake seriously to obtain from Congress transfer of control to the Alaska Legislature. An overwhelming majority of Alaskans as evidenced by their votes last November, want the change. There will be opposition to it, mainly from interests located outside of the Terri tory. Congress, itself, may be loath to surrender it's power in the premises. Under the circumstances and with so much at stake, every civic and com mercial organization, and all Alaskans ought to unite in support of the movement.

The Lame Duck" Spectacle.
Olympia Olympian.)

If an all-wse providence had tried to give the American people direct object-lesson concerning the necessity of eliminating lame ducks" from their Government, it could hardly have devised better one than we have been witnessing in Washintgon recently.
 In the first place, we have had hold-over Con- foundering desperately in effort to straight en out the Prohibition issue-a job which is import ant and pressing, but which surely is the province of the men who chosen at the last election
 Secondly, have the disrnaying muddle over the war debts The President and the President Elect cannot agree and the most vital part of foreign relations program must mark time for several months.
 Basically, these troubles are the fault of the system and not of the involved. And luckily we have chance, in the pending Tame duck amendment, to bring the system up to date.

 There ought to be further heavy decrease dur ing the current year Most of the shaky institutions have been weeded out during the past three years Most of those who have survived that period can be expected to weather the rest of the financial stress It is true there is considerable number of banks throughout the country whose condition is not healthy The Glass bill, pending before the Senate is designed to make it possible for the banking interests of the country to take of this situation and make it unnecessary for further Government aid. It is also designed to minimize greatly if not altogether prevent chances for repe

CHAPTER Is. THE NEIGHBORS PEEK

He just looked at her, marvel ing. This is she. =. , Beyond question, he knew her-she was the woman towards whose love he had been shaping since earliest years.
 And there she sat, found at last his destiny woven into the pearly silks at her breast-there she sat and insulted him as grossly as he had ever been insulted; rated him lower than any man, woman or beast had ever rated him yet.
 You ignorant, conceited, lovely little fool" he added; still in his most civil tones. Barbara = doesn't the name mean barbar- ian, a stranger? You are only a barbarian, evidently strange to the ways of real men and women. What a lot I aim to teach you about life!"
 He saw her face flame and whiten. He went on, choosing his words, placing his blows. He was not in the least sorry for her-it was Mark he was hitting through her, by her own choice. It had to be. ssNt
 You see, such lot of beauty is offered to any man." he told her-"any wealthy man, I mean, with reasonable health and an or dinary appearance. It would sick en you if were to describe to you one-half of the number of beauti- ful women, who have been willing to make their bargains with me. It would sicken you and, because you're a blind little small town bat, you'd think it was boasting, whereas, should simply be dis pensing with mock modesty. So we'll take the list as read and refrain from adding your name to it."
 She cr;ad op+ 2Aint

 "On the contrary, there is every need. You're very strong, you know Barbara, and it can only be by strength I'm to release you from Mark. Take your, mind off him for a moment, your whole mind. Push him aside for a very few minutes and stand up to me as a free woman as I am free man.
 When I strike at your pride and your beauty" he went on, strike back at my weakness and my pas sion-I'm not cripple you know. or an old woman, or an influen- tial client. I'm your equal in strength in some ways, I'm to be your master; Gn others your ser want. But just now, we're ene- mies-so stand up to me, you lit tie stacker, and hit"
 She had struggled to her feet in her first furious amazement; but it seemed to him that he had plucked her out of her chair as he had plucked her back from the truck wheels in that far-off time that was not six hours ago. She faced him across four feet of unstained floor, a piece of old carpet and the emerald she had for gotten. Yes, at last she had for gotten Mark. ... Armitage using her anger as a key, to lock Mark out, proceeded to make her an- grier still
 You could hurt me, Barbara Quentin, if you knew how, just as l can hurt you. Well, learn how to hurt me, when needful. We shall often desire to hurt each other. Perpetual pity, you know. is not bracing state of mind You've pitied too much, you've lost tone, you've gone to sleep emo- tlonally. When you wept over Mark, you were a mother who had lost child. Now you're woman who is most intensely loved: Well?"

let the hours slip by. The lamps in the neighborhouse had long been extinguished. the moon had dropped behind the cathedral, but through the intervening fanlights. Barbara's gleam came faintly out to him. Once he thought he heard her footstep but he did not in- vestigate. He kept his watch over her and believed that she knew it.
 Between five and six o'clock he got out of the car, stamped brisk ly upon the stubs of his many ci- garettes and drove quietly back to Kings Mallard. Copyright. 1882, Julia Cleft AddamS.) J.

Young Donald Haley, aged 12,
 was playing in the snow along the edge of the Pacific Coast Dock
 about 6 o'clock the evening prev
 ious. The quartermaster of the Curacao called out a warming to
 the lad, who looked up, lost his
 footing and fell into the icy wa
 ters of the channel. He had the
 presence of mind to grasp a piling
 after being submerged two or three
 times and clung to it desperately.
 The quartermaster slid down the
 pile to Donald's rescue, a rope was lowered and te lad hoisted to
 the dock top, then the quartermas-
 ter. Both were badly bruised on
 the railing. Young Haley had fal-
 len off the roof of the c. w.
 Young store some time before, and after his plunge into the channel,
 decided he was through playing around the docks.
 w. H. Chase, who had made a successful hunting trip in the Cook Inlet country the Fall before, an account of which was published in Seattle papers, was in receipt of many inquiries from hunters in the States requesting information as to equipment, climatic condi- tions, best season, and many oth- CT questions as to the hunting in the Territory.

 There was considerable discus sion in Juneau as to providing an adequate berth for the Unalga when it reached here from its long trip. 1t was stated that the stationing of the Una1ga would mean considerable disbursement and that if accommodations were not provided it would base either at Sitka where there was a gov- ernment dock, or at Ketchikan.
