Kenai Peninsula Residents Ask For Road Between Homer and SeldOvia

fronting them on their own initia- tive, and paid the prices they had to pay to bring in their own cattle. Nearly all of them are fishermen as well as farmers. or really moro fishermen than they are farmers. much of the money that they spend on their propertly coming from their summers earnings in their boats. In the spring and fall months. and sometimes in the win ter, they supplement their other in- come by taking coal off the ledges on the nearby beaches. and selling it in Seldovia.
 Further speculation about this To- eality centered around the possib . ity of a naval base on lower Cook Inlet, as a result of the inspection visit there last winter of the air plane carrier Ranger. Kaehemak Bay, an extensive and sheltered deep-water channel extending far into Kenai Peninsula between Ho- mer and Seldovia has been mention ed as a favored site.
 SeldOvla
 Seldovia is at present the metro polls of lower Cook Inlet The up- per end of the inlet, at Anchorage, IS frozen during the winter monti .. but the mild climate at the lower end has given Seldovia year-round water connections by small boats with surrounding villages.
 As Homer has no present ship harbor most of it's freight has gone through Seldovia. but starting T last year Heine Berger's small mo- tor ships Kasilof and Discoverer have been calling at Homer.
 There is some belief that tine building of breakwater and con struction of wharfage there would result in extensive growth on that side leaving Seldovia in the back ground. Seldovia flourished ori,- inally as a herring center, but six years ago the herring deserted, and the town slacked down considerably in it's activities. For the last two seasons the herring have been show ing promise of returning commer- cially, last year being a noticeable improvement In the meantime, three small salmon canneries oper- ate during the summer.
 Seldovia has for a number of years been gaining way as a win ter resort" More and more of the Alaskans who hole in" for the winter, and go out in the summer to make their money fishing or mining, have been moving into this region to live, attracted by the mild Innate and the economy of living 5eldoyia is famous for it's prolific clam-beds. upon which a large part Of the population live throughout the year With coal for the taking on the beach near Homer, and moose in the hills behind the coal, Seldoyia residents have been able to keep expenses down.

woven linen it is embroidered in

was raised in Belgium, then sent to
Ireland where it was made into
sheerest linen, much of it hand,s
woven. The linen was sent to China.
where it was cut into the required,
sizes, stamped with designs created
by American artists and embroid-

women whose art dates back 1000
years. When the handkerchiefs are
finished to the last degree of perfec-

THE handkerchief which we take
L so much for granted was once
luxury permitted only to those of
noble birth. A Hungarian queen of
the Fourteenth century owned one
silk handkerchief profusely embroid-
cred and by decree of a German
king in the Sixteenth century the
handkerchief was permitted to
those of noble birth only.
The first record of a handker-
chief appears on an old Assyrian
bas-relief, but even so Persia does
not seem to have adopted it. Ac-
cording to Zenophon, Cyrus the
Great in Persia forbade his sub
jects to blow their noses In Egypt,
at this time, royal subjects dried
their tears on the bottom of their
mantles.
Square handkerchiefs originated
in France. Louis XIV made a law
that all handkerchiefs, regardless
of size and texture, must be made
as broad as they were long.
Concerning the handkerchief as
we of this day and age know it, as
sands of the sea does it number,
while fashion plays it up in every
conceivable mood as smart ac-
cent to the costume.
Not only is the modern handker-
chief a ''friend indeed in the time
of need" but it is created a ching
of beauty"-a '"joy forever" too,
for the wedding kohlkerchief

NEGLIGEES ASSUME
HISTORICAL TREND

The sirens of the centuries have
inspired the new negligees.
The high wasted line of the
glamorous Empress Josephine, the
full skirted silhouette of the Di-
rectoire bellies and the trouser cos
tunes of almond : eyed Oriental
beauties have all left their mark
on outfits designed for the loung-
ing hours of modern fashionables.
The outstanding news is the en-
semble effect generally combining
two fabrics and two parts, as a
gown and house coat or pajamas
and jacket. Supple silk satin gowns
designed as night dresses, but al
most as formal in cut as evening
frocks-are topped by hip-length or
fioor-length coats, often of a con.
trasting fabric.

Wool lace, so fashionable this win
ter for daytime suits and dresses,
is proving perfect medium for
smart sports headgear. When the
outdoor event is to be followed by
cocktails and an evening of dane
ing, what could be more apropos
for the occasion than the trim little
skull-cap chapeau shown here at
the top? Of black wool lace it is just
the thing for a windy afternoon
and perky enough for any young
blade to adore. Its trim of shiny
black ostrich Immediately makes it
quite correct for the more formal
aftermath. The other hat is also of
black wool lace, showing to advan-
tage it's use for chic sports model.
The crown is quite high with the
narrow-shaped brim broadening to-
ward the front to make a fattering
shield over the eyes. The large
bow is of the same wool lace.

Makes Models Realistic
An Italian painter of ancient {

An Italian painter of ancient days
painting a picture of a saint in
agony, would tie up his model very
tightly to get the expression on his
face. A friend of his, doubling he
could get the correct expression,
one day, rushed in, brandished a
knife at the tied model, and shout
ed: "Now, I've got you; prepare
for DEATH" The model, thinking
himself a dead man, struggled to
loosen his bonds, and in his panic
fear represented wildly the horror
of death in his face and in his
distorted limbs. There" said the
artists friend, 'that is how he
should be; the rest you must do
yourself"

Wigs Once Popular

When William, the Dutchman, and
his English wife, Mary, occupied
the throne of England from 1859 to
1902, wigs for men became all the
rage. There was the periwig, the
peruke, the campaign wig with pole
locks, all of which were the first
thoughts of the gentlemen of the
kingdom. Historians say 'their
heads were loaded with curl upon
curl, long ringlets hanging over
their shoulders and down their
backs, some brown, some covered
with meal until their coats looked
like millers' coats; scented hair, al
most hiding the loose tied cravat,
most agreeably discolored with
snuff from top to bottom"

Prints Are Featured in
Dresses for Resort Wear

The resort mode is breaking into
print. Wild, high colored floral
prints on white grounds are the
trend of the times.
Some are in silk crepe and some
are in cotton, some are in linen and
some chiffon, but all are vivid as
to color and striking as to design.
These same prints are the ones
you will be wearing next spring
and summer, so if you aren't a
southern bird of passage, you might
still keep the subject in mind.
