 Book, Judge Writes

The following review of J. A. Hell lenthal's new book, The A a s ka n Melodrama," was written by Judge James WickerSham, pioneer student of Alaska history and owner of the largest library in the north on AL aska affairs:
 "A colorful and well written book about Alaska, by an Alaska author, is not offered to Alaska readers ev- cry day, and when such a happy event occurs such a one deserves a fair review.
 John A. Hellenthal-'Jack' to all his numerous and intimate friends is one of the most accomplished scholars and successful lawyers in Alaska, where he has been promi- nent in public affairs for more than third of a century.

Beneiic aspects rule strongly to- day, according to astrology. Under this plane tary government one should view life and it's achievements seriously < sE.4
 This is prominently a time for ambitious planning, for the vision regarding the future should be re- liable. Neptune encourages fore sight and fair judgment.
 Women today should benefit through their intuition, but they should rely upon male members of the family for guidance in matters pertaining to property.
 Farmers now should profit, since food prices will tend to rise and ex- ports will increase. Cotton comes under an influence that may bring it into many controversies.
 Industry will absorb many young persons at this time when the aged and middleaged will still find it dif- ficult to obtain employment.
 The seers call attention to the lack of trained hands and warn that trades should be taught instead of arts. In many callings the prac- tice of limiting the number of ap- prentices will cause difficulties, it is foretold.
 Romance today may be mild but durable. Suitors may be persistent though not sentimental. Under this rule the mind may dominate the heart.
 There is good sign for those who seek support and recommen- dations. It is an suspicious date for seeking employment, especially from engineers and contractors.
 Persons whose birthdate it is have the augury of year of prosperity to which relatives may contribute. Secret benefits are accruing.
 Children born on this day prob ably will be interested in human welfare and many have artistic tal- ents. Musicians belong to this sign
 George William Coleman, sociol- ogist, was born on this day, 1867. Others who have celebrated it as birthday include Frederic Schiller Lee, physiologist, 1859; Frederic Ar cher, organist, 1888.

Bounty on Reckless Drivers

s(St James, Mnnq Watonwan Go, Plaindealer) < " Here is the way they deal with reckless and in- toxica ted drivers in Portland, Oregon.
 There is a $100 bounty on reckless drivers Tn Portland where the law considers speeding reckless. z Determined to put check on city drivers the city cooperating with civic accident prevention or ganization enacted the bounty law recently as one phase of wide spread traffic control program.
 The ordinance provides a $l00 reward for any citizen who gives information leading to the arrest and conviction of reckless driver. The reward has been paid twice in the short life of the new regua- tion, adopted in April of this year.
 As another safeguard the city has obtained an agreement from major gasoline companies not to sell gasoline to intoxicated persons The city also conducts school where reckless drivers are taught safe driving methods.
 These unique regulations ought to help in the safety first campaign. Cities might well take the idea and try it out in their own ordinances. Reck- less and drinking drivers a menace to life and property and need strict regulations to insure safety on the highways. ..,..f

Horoscope ''The stars incline
 but do not cOmpel'
MONDAY, JUNE Is, 1856.

As the week begins adverse plan etary influences are discerned, ac- cording to astrology. Women. how ever, are well directed today for they begin a period of rest and prep aration for future work.
 Under this planetary government there may be tendency to, indulge in pleasure instead of undertaking any sort of hard work Both young and old may turn to sophistry which suggests that effort is futile.
 The stars presage for the masses unrest and diScontent that retard interest in constructive plans for, employment. Efforts of relief meth eds will be evident in many walks of life, from persons of trained minds and hands to those who are unskilled in any task
 This is rather a lucky sway for those who gain their livelihoods through writing. Newspapers have the prognostication of much profit and increased need of employees.
 In the evening the stars frown upon all who seek public approval. It is not a fortunate date for men or women in public service.
 The Moon in Taurus may impart determination and decision to cer- tain minds, but envy and jealousy must be eliminated if success is to be won.
 California and Brazil at this time are subject to similar influences that seem to presage some sort of yio- lent upheaval of nature or disas-. ter that will destroy property, La bor troubles are presaged.
 The seers repeat the prophecy that postoffice affairs will command national attention. Accidents to air mail carriers and robberies are fore told,
 Persons whose birthdate 1t is have the augury of year of changes and readjustments. Subjects of this sign may take unexpected journeys that lead to profit and success.
 Children born on this day prob ably will be talented and ambitious Subjects of this sign generally are strong in mind and body.
 Ernestine Schumann-H Heink, sing CT, was born on this day 1864. Oth- CTS who have celebrated it as a birthday include Edward Grieg, composer, 1843; Frank Edwin Elwell, sculptor, 1858; Ernest Lister former Governor of Washington, 1870.

THE SOCIAL FRONTIER

In the hue and cry about "regimentation,' the social frontier" and other terms which apply to the social order, it is well to bear in mind that there is still the individual and that his rights and privileges sacred It probably is true that there those in this country who would bind into economic units such they have in Russia sacrificing the individual for the state but it is not the tone of our present leadership nor are we constructed in this country as to be easily welded into such condition. President Roosevelt expressed the American view point rather clearly in recent letter to the National Conference of Social Work when he wrote:
 Many of us are accustomed to appealing for the cause of humanity. Let remember that humanity is not society; humanity is just plain folks. Some of so-caled leaders have made the mistake of looking upon men and women economic and social units. Logically, therefore they speak of men and women as individuals, just they would of other things-of animals or plants or atoms.
 In matters of social welfare we should keep sight of the fact that are not dealing with units" individuals" or with economic men" We dealing with persons Human per- sonality is something sacred. It enjoys the light of reason and liberty. It grows by ris- ing above material things and wedding itself to spiritual ideals t.t} Secretary of Commerce Daniel C. Roper sounded similar note in recent address. He put it in these words:
 This social into which have progressed today has brought about problems and new relationships which demand changing methods and different attitudes. to ss cope with them successfully. The extent to which business agriculture and industry apply these procedures literally and benefcialy will determine howsasound and constructive the nations future will be.
