Strip Fishing Is Praised By A
 Noted Author
Continued From Page One)

which she later depicted in books.
 But one of the biggest thrills Alaska ever gave her came this summer with the aid of a tin can and an old sock.
 The author and her husband, Larry O'Connor also a writer, have been in Seattle on their way to their California home af- ter two months in the North.
 She Tries Strip Fishing
 Sitting on her bed in her room at the New Washington Hotel, she talked of strip fishing, a new Alaskan sport, and the way it felt to get twenty-pound sal mon on her hook when she went fishing near Juneau.
 .. "It's nothing like strip poker" sine said, laughing. 'It's some thing like trolling for salmon but you fish from an anchored boat. The swift tide that runs near Jun eau gives your lure-a herring all the movement you'd get from moving boat in quiet water.
 You take the tin can and pull the sock over it, and use that for a reel. The can with your line wrapped around it lies on the deck, and rest of the line runs through eyes on your pole. You cast out into the swift tide. and then strip" the line back in by hand. The salmon hit like a speedboat and some of them leap out of the water five or six feet when you play them.
 New Story is Coming
 Miss Willoughby, author of "Where the Sun Swings North, Rocking Moon", "The Trail Eater" and many other stories of Alaska, spent six weeks in Jun eau and two more at the Mata- nuska colony. gathering material for a new novel which will have for its background the modern gold mining industry of the Nor tn.
 Miss Willoughby went to San Francisco after the war, determin ed to write about the North When newspapers refused her a job she began work on a novel. After her money ran out she went to work as secretary to O'Brien, whose South Sea stories were at the height of their popularity.
 After eighteen months of this she wrote a note to Rockwell | Kent, telling him much his illus rated Alaska book Wilderness" meant to her.
 Kent showed the note to a publisher. The publisher wrote | .o Miss Willoughby. The novel which she had begun became Where the Sun Swings North" md her career was started.
 With her husband, she left Seat .le recently for San Francisco. l

DISACREENENTS PROPOSED ORDINANCES RESULTED AT
 CITY COUNCIL LAST NIGHT

aside for a Fire Prevention Cam paign, in which the Fire Depart ment would inspect every build ing in town for fire hazards and report on same.
 The crux of the entire matter was reported as being to make re- sidents of Nome fire conscious, and thereby remove as many haz ards as possible at this time, such result evidencing the keen am- bition of the city to place the danger of fire during the winter time at a minimum.
 Other minor subjects were dis cussed and several matters refer red to the files. The council ad- journed.

At the regular council meeting last night, regular order of busi- ness consisted of ordering pay ment of bills approved by the finance Committee, reading of the minutes, and listening to com munications.
 Beyond that, tentative drafts of proposed ordinances were read and objections listened to from both councilmen and others pres ent. The first proposed ordinance to be read concerned sanitary Con ditions of the delivery of water in Nome. Messrs. Yenney, Berg strom and Pangman,. represent ing three different concerns, spoke and voiced their objections to cer tain phases of the ordinance. It was finally decided to allow the Health Committee of the City to meet with the respective water vendors, draft proposed ordinan ce which would more suitably fit the conditions, and then present their findings to the council at a later date.
 Another ordinance dealing with a general closing law for business concerns in Nome, was read and objections or comments requested.
 c. C. Tanner, attorney, repre- senting four business concerns in Nome, spoke at considerable length concerning the evil to re- suit if such an ordinance were passed, forcing store keepers to close at certain specified time, pointing out that the matter, to begin with was purely an affair which should be handled by the merchants themselves, and should not involve the city council, or the public at large.
 After lengthy discussion pro and con by originators and others, it was finally admitted by various counci1men who at first thought we'll of the proposed ordinance, that it was entirely out of place for the council, to step in at this time and attempt to dictate to certain classes of business men in Nome, what time they should close.
 The council discussing recent editorials in the Daily Nugget concerning a suggested Fire Pre- vention Campaign took up the subject before adjournment. They at first, could see no apparent reason for establishing a cam paign, voicing the opinion that it was the Chief of Police's duty to take care of this feature.
 However, some discussion en- sued which resulted in a decision that the time from November 10 to November 2Oth would be set

Are you going to have a flowe,
garden this year? You would il
you could spare the time and if you
had a spot where the soil WASH,
so poor. Of course we all would
Gardening is the most healthfu]
and pleasant exercise, and the re-
wards in a wealth of colorful frag-
rant bloom richly repay all the Of
fort and time we give to it, how
ever small and poor our garden may
be.
The matter of poor soil need not
stop us, and neither should the
question of time. There are a few
ANIMALS that may be depended upon
to give you bloom in almost any
soil that may be worked at all.
They are all of the easiest culture
and may be seeded right where you
want them to bloom, and with a
minimum of effort to see that they
get water enough, they will bloom
very nicely. Here is the list: Por-
tulacca, Verbena, Ice Plant, Sweet
Alyssum, Cockscomb, Kochia, Mas
turtium, Petunia, and Bachelor
Buttons.
We had Nasturtiums blooming to
perfection last year in a garden spot
that was nothing but an ash pile
covered with an inch of soil on top.
If you plant nasturtiums in rich
soil they will all go to foliage and
be a total loss. Even the new and
marvellous double nasturtiums are
perfectly hardy and easy to grow.
Beds of portulacca, the old-fash-
toned rose moss of Grandmother's
day, require very little attention in
return for their myriad of gay
blooms, Petunia and verbena
planted together will bloom all sea
son long in a variety of bright
colors. Sweet Alyssum makes at
tractive, ever-blooming borders, and
Cockscomb, Kochia and Bachelor
Buttons offer taller plants for the
background.
An ingenius new kitchen aid is
designed specifically for the scien-
tific and efficient cooking of aspar-
agus. 1t lets the stalks stand up
right, protecting the succulent tips
and, it is claimed, preserving full
flavor.
