Alaska is losing some of its, roman tic appeal to the women ofethe sta tes, and the back-to-the-land move ment, so noticeable during the de pression, is not so successful as press reports have indicated. At least this might be an interpretation placed on conditions along the coast from letters received by the Ketchikar Chronicle.
 But romance is not dead! Far be it from so And bachelors residing in this vast Northland may rejoice that they are being singled out as the soul-mate for a forlorn woman pining away in one of sunny Cali fornia's many shelter camps or bravely facing alone the trials at, tendant upon operation of farm ir the Pacific Northwest.
 Three women-widows all-have written to the Chronicle, letters 1T which they make a frank appeal tc upstanding Alaskans to join them ir holy Wedlock for the remainder ot their days. Companionship is the keynote of these earnest appeals as none carry even the slightest infer. ence that the man must be wealthy "a repugnant inference so common in letter appeals to Alaskans in prev ious years.

 Karloff heaved tremendous sigt of relief. This was going to be swell
 Alas for fond illusions. Along with Victor McLaglen, Wallace Ford, Reginald Denny and other members of the cast, Karloff was hurried to the desert near Yuma, Arizona. where the sun did a heat shimmy every day when the wind wasn't kicking up sandstorm Instead of his face being coated by makeup, Karloff found it soaked with perspiration and plastered with sand
