Horoscope
"The stars incline
but do not compel

SUNDAY, NOVEMBER %, 1887
Friendly aspects control in the
horoscope for today, according to
astrology. 1t is a time for success
full review of ones personal affairs
and arrangement of domestic pro-
grams.
The sway stimulates executive
ability and right thinking. Criticism
from members of the family should
be accepted good-naturedly, while
this configuration prevails.
For months astrologers have adj
vised the liquidation of estates
and the general Capitalization .of
ones wealth so that it may be pro-
tected from sudden mutations of
value. They again emphasize the
importance of safeguarding re-
sources.
AS living costs soar in the winter
months there may be much agita-
ton for higher wages among work
ers and growing discomfort among
heads of families.
This is read as fortunate date
for letters and for writings of ev-
cry sort, but love missiles should be
brief as well as reasonably sane.
Churches today sh GU d profit
through the contributions of many
persons interested in maintaining
institutions for the young.
Hospitals should benefit as the
need of more beds becomes appar-
ent with the spread of epidemics.
Public health will be of grave con-
Germ at this time
Under this rule of the stars phil
osophy and religion will be widely
discussed. Reactionary influences
will aid churches.
Persons whose birthdate it is have
the augury of year of pleasure
which includes travel to resorts of
various states. Speculation may
be profitable.
Children born on this day prob
ably will be light and fond
of amusement. Subjects of this
sign may have talents of unusual
quality.
David Warfield, actor, was born
on this day 1866 Others who have
celebrated it as birthday include
Suzanne Adams, singer, 1873; Lind
ley M. Garrison, statesman, 1854

MODERN
ETIQUETTE
By Roberta Lee

@. Is it permissible, when at the
theatre or lecture, to reprove peo-
pie nearly who insist upon talk
ing?
A. Yes; they deserve to be re-
proved, but the sad part is that
people with such lack of breeding
and consideration for others, are
SO thick-skinned and ignorant that
they usually become more rude
when reproved
@. What should girl wear to a
late, informal supper party?
A. A restaurant or dinner frock.
@. Is it all right to close a for
NAL note with Sincerely yours?
A. Yes.

MONDAY, NOVEMBER 20, 1897
Adverse planetary aspects DOM
mate today, according to astrology.
1t is a date read as most menacing
to Spectators
Temptation to take chances of
many sorts may be strong under
this sway which encourages gamb-
ling as well as reckless feats of
craftsmanship
Although there may be a sense
of renewed vigor and unusual ener-
gy under this conIiguration it is
wise to delay all important initia-
tive. What has been we'll begun
should be pushed with great force.
The judgment is not trustworthy
under this direction of the stars
The tendency to argue and even to
quarrel over public issues may be
prevalent, but it should be resisted.
! Nature will seem to reflect the
mood OF mortals on the planet Earth
and the winter will bring convul-
slons of active volcanoes, earth
quarkes and high winds, it is again
forecast.
What appear as penalties for hui
man misdeeds will be numerous as
the innocent suffer with the guilty
in many tragedies.
Reactionary influences will be
manifest in modes and manners.
There will be return to chivalry
and old-fashioned formality among
social leaders, it is prophesied.
Again new heroes are to arise in
many nations, it Tsp reelected, and
mericans will revere peace
apostles as well as our leaders.
Persons whose birthdate it is
have the augury of a year of many
play days. Much company will be
entertained by certain men and
women who will gain through social
contacts.
Children born on this day prob
ably will be intellectual and indi-
vidual. Subjects of this sign usual
ly are popular, because of their in
terest in humanity.
Wendell Phillips, orator and re-
former, was born on this day 1911.
Others who have celebrated it as a
birthday include M r. Waite, chief
justice of the United States Su-
preme Court, 1916; Louisa May Al
colt, author, 1892; and her father,
Amos Bronson Alcott, educator,
1899.

The regular luncheon meeting of
the Juneau Bar Association was
held in Percy's Cafe this noon.
The Daily Alaska empire. [volume] (Juneau, Alaska) 1926-1964, 1937-11-27

The German Japanese agreement gave the
japanese Army enhanced security and greater
freedom of action in the Far East because
it showed that Russian trouble with Japan
meant trouble with Germany If Germany
quarrels with Russia, it has to reckon with
France because of the Franco-Russian treaty.
Since Japan signed the Berlin pact Russia
also has to reckon with two fronts.
In Japan the army and navy enjoy a curl
Gus equality of influence, like twin elder
brothers, in all national enterprises Did the
navy look around for some international part
nership which, like the Berlin agreement of
protection for the japanese Army's back,
would give it greater freedom from the risk
of possible British interference with its block
aiding operations in China waters? Anyhow
that effect has been secured
With Japan conducting holy war against
communism" and Italy and Japan pledged to
cooperate against Comintern activities the
British Navy must look to its lifeline" in the
Mediterranean before London protests too
sharply about trade Interruptions in the Far
East.
/ Indirectly the Italo-Japanese agreement
also helps to secure Japan against Russia,
since France and Russia have mutual assist
ance treaty and whatever enlbarrasses France
weakens Russia.
the armys Continental advance, and its
younger, more aggressive spirits may have
concluded that the policy is incompatible with
any real understanding with Britain. But the
southwark policy is still vague; meantime the
pact supplies an effective weapon against Brit
ish interference with Japans naval strategy
in the present campaign.
AS this article is written, the Prvy Council
is examining the Italo-Japanese agreement
amid the inspired silence of the entire press
Like the German-Japanese pact, it will be ex-
posed to public criticism only after the imperial
seal has been affixed. The creation of this
zone of silence was unnecessary as public
opinion is bitter against England at present
and Mussolini is hailed as friend in need
regardless of what complexities the unquixotic
friendship may bring in the future
The old diplomacy made binding treaties
stipulating that certain events would bring
their pledges into operation. The German
Japanese and the Italo-Japanese pacts merely
obligate the signatories Ito keep each other
informed concerning the activities of the
Comintern and to confer on necessary meas
ures of defense to carry out such measures of
- cooperation Their proponents point out that
an agreement of this kind requires no secret
clauses to make it effective, for it only binds
the contracting parties to undertake what
ever measures they may agree upon in any
given situation
The Berlin pact had an obvious value in
connection with Japan's and Germanys
latons with Russia. But at first sight Italy
and Japan have no common interests. Japans
:, trade with Italy is trifling amounting actu-
: ally to only percent of her trade with Ameri-
