FAIRBANKS MAYOR WARNS
 AGAINST INFLUX OF LABOR

E. B. Collins, mayor of Fair banks, left by Service Airways pIane last Friday for the interior after visiting Cordoya in the capa- clty of district deputy to the Elks lodge. according to the Times.
 lie made hls official visit to the loeaI organization on Wednesday and then remained as the guest of lodgemen all day Thursday An in noyation was a fishing expedition 10 the nearby crab banks where MT Couins enjoyed a new form of an ging A shore crew kept a large container of sea water boiling and craps were cooked as rapidly as they were caught. MT. Collins took a hundred of the fresh shell fish back to Fairbanks with him.
 Calling at the Times office be- fore departing, Mir. Collins said Fairbanks outlook for the summer was most promising. The high price of gold has spurred mining com panies to even greater activity this summer, than last year, he said.
 The Fairbanks Exploration com pany has added to it's equipment on told Stream and CIeary Creeks and is opening operation on Ester creek. New dredges have gone in and a pumping plant has been in- stalled in Cinema Slough. Mining even beyond the Arctic has been stimulated
 Fairbanks is also enjoying a building boom. In spite of the seemingly prosperous summer that is in store for the interior metro polls, MT. Collins warned that there will be no surplus of jobs for outsiders.
 0ldtimers First
 "Oldtimers will get the first chance at work" he said, and l positively do not advise anyone coming to Fairbanks with the hope of finding work Even with the spurt of activity this summer we will be fortunate if we are able to take care of our own people,
 MT. Collins said he believed every Alaska town should make a con certed effort to warn outside cities to refrain from encouraging job hunters going to Alaska.
 The big PAA plane arriving and departing on schedule once each week gives Fairbanks a decidedly metropolitan feeling, he comment ed. The new air line is booked solid for most of the summer. The trip to Juneau is made in three hours.
 Future for Air Lines

Collins is himself an en- thusiastic user of the norths new est method of transportation and .l4ounted experiences in the early lays when tip from Fairbanks .J the toast was a matter of ten da5s or two weeks time and S200 to $25U in expense. Even in more recent times with the advent of a modern railroad and fast steamer service, a trip such as he is mak- ing at present would have taken 20 days. MT. Collins will now con sume less than a week in the round trip with ample time at each stop ping place for rest or pleasure He envisions a great future for Alas ka's airlines.

Massachusetts Ready to Honor the
Memory of One of Her Most
Distinguished Sons

It was revealed in Boston the past
week that Mrs. Grace Goodhue Cool
idge, widow of the late Calvin Cool
idge is DESTROYS that the memorial to
be erected to the former President
be not in the form of statue. Mrs.
Coolidge's views regarding the me-
mortal were disclosed at committee
meeting at the state house in Boston.
In letter to Arthur A. Shurcliff,
secretary of the State Art Commits
sion, Mrs. Coolidge did not say what
kind of memorial she preferred, but
merely stated her opposition to a
statue.
The commission favors a memorial
gate at the State House. Northamp-
ton citizens are said to favor a Cool
idg memorial bridge between North
ampton and Hadley over the Con-
necticut river, and bills for federal
financing of such project are said
to be before Congress. State Repre-
sentative Roland D. Sawyer wants
Hampden county to take over the
former Coolidge residence in North
ampton, rented duplex house on
Massasoit street, as memorial.
The rumor persists that Mrs. Cool
idge is to be married next spring to
Everett Sanders, former Indiana Con-
gresham and secretary to Coolidge
while he was President. Sanders owns
a 500-acre estate in Maryland not
far from Washington and it is re-
ported that after the wedding Mrs.
Coolidge will leave her home at
Northampton, Mass, and preside over
che Sanders estate,

OLD TIMERS WROTE
OBITUARIES ON SIDE
OF PALM-LEAF FAN

Henderson, N. C.-Sitting in a
local undertaking parlor, s. III.
Allen, native and lifelong resi-
dent of this city, recalled that in
the old days before the time of
newspapers or telephones in Hem
derson, the custom in announcing
deaths was to write notices in
longhand, fasten them to a palm
leaf fan and have a servant
carry them to the doors of
friends.
Ribbons would be attached to
the fans, on which was also PIN
ned the death and funeral notice,
usually written by an expert
penman. The servant would hold
up the notice before the house
holder when the latter came to
the door, and then he would go
on to the next home.
Mr.. Allen has in his possession
now such notice prepared at
the time of the death of his
great-grandmother many years
ago.

MOLASSES MAKES GOOD
SUBSTITUTE FOR CORN

A moderate amount of cane mo-
lasses, or black strap, may be sub
stituted for corn in feeding dairy
cattle when corn prices are high, says
John A. Arey, extension dairyman at
State College.
Although not as valuable, pound
for pound, as corn meal, he says, the
molasses will serve as we'll as corn
when moderate amount is used and
little or no difference sAill be seen in
the milk flow.
"In one feeding test" he said, 1--WE
found that A As gallons of molasses
had the same milk producing value
as bushel Of shelled corn. We also
found that molasses acts as a tonic
for the animals"
From a fourth to a. third of a
gallon Of molasses is the proper daily
ration, Arey points out. Many dairy
men find it advantageous to give the
animals one pint at each feeding.
When not too thick, it may be
poured over the silage, grain, or hay.
If it is very thick, it may be diluted
with water and then poured over the
feed with satisfactory results.
Molasses is palatable to cattle, he
says, and will increase the animals
appetite for the feeds on which it is
poured, particularly low grade rough
age.

WHAT PEOPLE TALK ABOUT

Independent, Sampson.-1nvestiga-
tors classified 500 conservations over
heard in public places to find out just
what men and women talk about, in
Cleveland and New York. They found
that the subjects varied little in the
two cities.
Mems conversations were 48 per
cent about business, Is percent about
sports and amusements, IL per cent
about other men, these being the
most frequent topics.
Conversations of women were most
frequently about men, this topic
showing great variation in the two
cities, % per cent in Cleveland and
"A per cent in New York. Clothes
were the subject of 20 per cent, and
other women Is per cent.
In mixed company, men talked
most to women about amusements,
next to business and money. Women
conversed with men about themselves
and other women.
The above results were published
in business mems magazine, but we
can not say whether they fairly rep
resent the facts or not. At any rate,
they are interesting.
