Every One in States Alaska Conscious, Hawkesworth
 Reports on Return

Special attention is being given by the education office of the U. s. Bureau of Indian Affairs to the proposal for a survey of the two school systems in Alaska with the aim of correlating the work, it is reported by Charles w. Hawkes. worth, Assistant to the Director of Education of the Bureau, and head of the Juneau office, who has just returned from an extended trip to the National Capital in connection with Indian affairs. Study is being made with the purpose of carrying cut the program as soon as possi- ble
 It may be the terrific heat in parts of the country as MT. Hawkesworth suggested, but every one in the States is Alaska con- seious the Indian Affairs execu- tive found. Enroute East he stopped at Denver to attend the National Education Association convention. Some 12,000 teachers were in at tendance and every one of them wanted to know about Alaska, he said. As soon as it was learned MT. Hawkesworth was from the Terri tory he was deluded with ques- tions about Alaska. The main ques- tion was how can we get tf1ere?" Not only the teachers but everyone, tourists especially, were interested in the North, he said, in forecast ing that the influx of people to Alaska is foregone conclusion.
 Washington Torrid Place
 Despite the heat, MT. Hawkes. worth enjoyed this journey across the nation in the air-cooled trains, but found Washington a torrid place with everyone seeking a cool spot. Regardless of the stifling tenn perature, Delegate Dimond was right on the job, he said, and work ing diligently in behalf of Alaska and it's people
 Plans for a Congressional delega- tion to visit Alaska when Congress adjourned are now underway and MT. Hawkesworth assisted Paul w. Gordon, Ed u ation Director, in working out an itinerary MT. Cor don, who with Dr. Vance B. Mur- ray, Medical Director, sent best regards to friends in the north, was transferred on the first of July to the Division of Territories and Island Possessions in the Interior Department to have charge of AL aska affairs.

sonal advertising. .
 What was regarded as the best summary of the man was an utter anee by Elihu Root when he was Secretary of State. MT. Gillett went to the State Department in the in- terest of a constituent and as he left, Secretary Root turned to a friend and said:
 Was A Gentleman
 Ut is interesting to see in Mir Gillett the necessities of politics struggling with the instincts of a gentleman"
 Although he made few speeches, Senator Gillett's addresses in the House and Senate always were pointed, often replete with irony and humcr, and in debate there were times when he was merciless. Once in the House during a discus sion of corrupt practices legislation, designed to purify elections, he said: Everybody here-at least almost everybody here-is against the pur- chasing of votes" The remark went over the heads of none.
 Wins Respect
 The courtesy and dignity of Sen- ator Gillett when he was Speaker of the House won the respect of Republicans and Democrats alike. In contrast to some speakers who wieldedsthe gavel with the strength of boilermaker. MT. Gillett em- ployed light tap At first that method did not bring immediate results, but when the members be- gan to understand their speaker it became effective.
 Senator Gillett was born at Vest field, Mass, October 16, 1851, the son of Edward B. and Lucy Fowler Gillett. His father and maternal grandfather were lawyers and he began his early training for that profession under his father. After his public school education, the sen ator spent year in foreign travel, studying German, Greek and Latin. He was graduated at Amherst Col lege in 1874 and at the Harvard Law School three years later.
 Interested in Politics
 Entering the practice of law at Springfield, Senator Gillett soon became interested in politics and was elected to the common council He served as an assistant attorney general of Massachusetts from 1879 to 1882 and in the state legislature in 1890 and 1891. The next year he began his long service in Con- gress. having rounded out 32 years in the lower house when he was elected United States Senator.

Model
For Border
In a Bonnet
BY FLORENCE LA GANKE.

NANCY had no idea which baby
of her acquaintance would get
the bonnet she was knitting. It really
belonged with the sweater and bootees
that she had knitted earlier. That
is, 1t uses the same lacy border ar
rangement and completed an ensemble
that was attractive and dainty.
Summertime is not the best time
to knit with wool, for ones hands
perspire, but Nancy had learned q
few tricks. She always busted her
hands with talcum powder before she
started knitting. She kept a small,
tightly covered container of the pow
der in her knitting bag and when
her hands began to get sticky she
busted them over again.
When she worked with white or
light colored yarns she was careful
to keep a lightweight clean towel
or apron on her lap. This prevented
the yarn from getting soiled. 1t also
gave her something on which to place
1t If she had to lay it down. The
yarn was held in a container. either
her knitting box or yarn holder, in
such a way that the ball would not
roll around on the floor or porch.
This bonnet may be knitted on the
flexible circular needle, but not as a
round and round affair, like a skirt.
The flexible needle Is easier to handle
than pair of straight needles.
The first stitches which are cast
on become the two edges going down
the center Of the crown. They are
later sewed together as the direc-
tions given in the sheet will explain

to Peter that this wasn't going to be

But Mrs. Peter did think of it. 1t
popped into her funny little head right
in the midst of her worries. She
hunted up Peter. He was sitting in
his favorite form in the middle of a
bramble tangle. He was looking very
glum and out of sorts.

What is it." replied Peter, srump-
lily.
You'll stay at home now, won't
you?" said little Mrs. Peter.
Peter shifted uneasily and began
chewing very fast on nothing at all.

furiously on nothing at all, a way he
has of doing when he Is upset. He
knew that what little Mrs. Peter said
was true.

Heart Beat
Is Studied
In Machine
Cardiograph Record
Reveals Trouble
in System.
BY JAMES w. BARTON, M. d.

NOU may wonder how the electro
L cardiograph works and what the
writing means, as the doctor care
fully reads 1t. The electro-cardiograph
simply records how the heart is beat
ing-the strength of the first beat
which pushes the pure blood from the
left side of the heart through the
large vessel above it to all parts of the
body, and the strength of the second
beat which pushes the used or i'm
pure blood from the right side to the
lungs only, to be purified.
There is spot" or node in the
upper right side of the heart which
is the "pacemaker" setting the pace
for the heart rate. and also two other
nodes which start the heart contract
ing, but the trouble is that every cell
in the heart has the power of con-
tracing and may start the heart con-
tracing 'out of turn"
Thus when the heart doesn't beat
in its regular way it may be due to
some trouble in one of the three reg
ular modes" or some single cell may
be starting the contractions. More
over the natural impulses to make
the heart beat may be blocked" at
some point: thus heart block doesn't
mean that the heart is blocked"
with blood, but the nerve impulses
causing the heart beat have been
booked or interfered with in some
way.
DR.. Chauncy C. Maher. in a talk
before the Medical Round Table of
Chicago, said that when the heart
beats very fast 600 to the minute),
when there were extra complete beats,
when the heart beat missed now and
then, or when the first and second
beats ran together, it showed trouble
with heart muscle, with the vessel
feeding the heart muscle, or with the
node or spot where the impulses start.
BY reading the writing" made by
the electro-cardiograph and compar-
ing with the writing made by a nor
NAL heart, the trouble and its prob
able cause could be learned just as
the X-ray film reveals trouble in the
lungs, stomach or elsewhere in the
body.
The up-strokes are the waves
made by the heart when it pumps
the blood. The height of these up
strokes or if they are nearly level"
or even below level when they should
extend upward gives valuable informa-
tion to the physician.
These machines are usually found
only in hospitals and in the Offices of
heart specialists because, like an eff
cient X-ray outfit, they are costly to
install. Your doctor makes use of
the electro-cardiograph as he does
the X-ray when he wishes to confirm
his own findings.

The Old Gardener Saws

There is always the question
about masking the iris and peony
borders after the flowers have
come and gone. 1t is a simple
matter to plant bulbs Of the
Summer hyacinths among the
other plants, with which they do
not interfere and which do not
interfere with them. Presently
their long spikes will ascend to
a height Of 3 or 4 feet. and will
put out many bell-like, pure
white flowers, hanging around q
central stalk and producing the
appearance of a candelabra. The
Summer hyacinth is hardy
enough to be left in the ground,
although better results are OBJ
tanned by digging up the bulbs
and replanting them each year.
The bulbs should 60 into the
ground inches deep, and it is
very important that the soil
where they are planted should be
we'll drained. They like sunny,
open situation.

THIS name suggests characteristic
of the first individual who assumed
the surname liberal spender. The
old English spelling was "Scatergod,'
and the first mention Of the name
that we find In English records Is that
of one Robert Scatergod.
The founder of the Scattergood
family in America was Thomas, who
came over from England before 1887
and settled in Burlington, N. ]. He
was an active member OF the Society
of Friends. He had married Elizabeth
Jarvis in London and their son Thomas
became an active man of affairs in
West Jersey, serving in many public
capacities.
The name Scattergood, although not
frequently found, Is represented today
in various sections of the country. This
family Is esteemed wherever 1t is
known for the substantial qualities oi
its sons and daughters.

HELPFUL AUTO TIPS
GIVEN FOR WOMEN.
Motorist Reverses Rule,
Finds Trouble 0veroiI.
ing the Car.
BY FREDERICK C. RUSSELL.

There are many cases on record
where owners have damaged their
cars by not using enough engine oil,
but recently have met a new type
of owner who over-oiled the engine.
The trouble has been traced to care
lessness in reading the oil level gauge.
These owners withdraw the gauge,
wipe it off and then insert it again
in the crankcase. But in doing so
they fail to insert it fully. The result
is they keep adding oil that isn't
needed. 1t had led to a lot of I'M
necessary complaints about low oil
mileage. t-....
Week-ending in a small town where
the entire population was grieving
over the loss of a promising young
attorney who had met death in an
automobile accident has left me
lamenting the existence of highway
casualties that pass by unexplained.
When a reason is cited for fatality
many other drivers are benefited by
the information such a case provides.
Without an explanation there Is no
such guide to avoidance of repetitions.
Drivers may continue being blind to
certain dangers. Even the car maker
may never know that there was
weakness in the design and con-
struction of his product.
Grieving over the loss Of fellow
citizen is not complete in itself. AS
forward-looking men and women, we
owe it to humanity to grieve also
for our inability to find a definite
explanation for each and every ia
tality.
Does your new car begin to stop
a little less efficiently than it did
when new? If so, the chances are
that this is due to the fact that you
are getting accustomed to the brakes
and no longer are so thrilled over the
way they outclass the brakes on your
former car. After the first thrill
wears away most owners think their
cars no longer are as powerful aS
when new. 1t is the same with the
braking power.
mention this because 1t suggests
putting your car to braking test just
to make certain whether what you
think about the brakes is true or
merely an idea. A brake testing ma
chine is handy as a check-up, and
you should also test the brakes in an
actual measured stop. While the
brakes will need service think it is
well to guard against putting the
braking system out of balance by fool
ishly insisting that your service man
try to give you more breaking power
than you need.
