by better than normal catches of fish last summer.
 A true picture of the conditions in the Selawik range is given, MT. Gubser said, in quotation from the report of the unit-manager of the Selawik herd, with whom MT. Cub ser travelled. The report states that, "The board of directors of the herd voted in November to limit butcher ing by the native owners to one deer this year for each one hun dred shares" One share is supposed to represent the ownership of one deer.
 The unit-manager has had four years of experience with the herd and said that, Three years ago, before the first serious reports of wolves began to be heard in that area, the Selawik and Shungnak herds counted eighteen and twenty thousand head, by actual corral count, and that the native owners butchered four thousand head an- nually. This year the count showed only 4,300 reindeer left in the two herds"
 Is Hardest Hit
 That total for this year, MT. Cub ser added, is really overestimated because one group of about thou sand was included that was num- bered only by range count. How ever, he said, the SelaWik herd is probably the hardest hit of any of those encountered.
 Even t-Kivalina, though, the area in best shape, it took the herders nearly two weeks longer this sea son to round up ten thousand head than they had expected to spend ir gathering twenty-five thousand
 The heaviest trace of wolves, MT Gubser declared, is in the area north of the reindeer range, where the wolves are working in an area where there is very large herd ot caribou, counting about 75,000 That region is adjacent to the Cutler River. near the headwaters of the Noatak. The wolves, he said, have followed the caribou there, from the reindeer range. But each of the reindeer herds is surrounded by sey- eral wolves.

WOLVES HAVE MADE RAIDS

Harlan n Cub bser Returns from Arctic After Thor
 ough Investigation

Harlan Gubser, predatory animal expert for the Territory, arrived in Juneau Sunday afternoon on the plane from Fairbanks piloted by Noel Vein. During his travelling in the Interior, Gubser contacted eleven reindeer herds, all in the area north of Seward Peninsula. and found that reports of the wolf de- predation coming out of the north, are all too true.
 The stories of various wolf inroads on the herds, often regarded in this section as exaggerated, MT. Gubser found to be completely born out by the facts. In the area cov- cred, and in which 5000 people de- pend for their sustenance princi- pally on the reindeer, MT. Gubser and his aides found that only nucleuii remain of the eleven herds visited

Some Herds o. K.

From the observations and con- tacts made by MT. Gubser, it ap- pears that the Kivalina and Point Hope herds are in the best condi- ton, but only because they are the farthest west and the wolves, al- though present there, have not yet reached them in as great numbers as other places.
 During his travels, MT. Gubser covered one thousand miles by dog team and 1,500 miles by plane, cross Sectioning the country to get q picture of the actual conditions. In addition, he travelled considerably by boat, before the freeze-up.

down through generations, and today
authentic reproductions are being
made 50 that homes may be furnished
in the charming style Of the early New
England settlers.
Aside from the association, this
early furniture has a simplicity of line
which is much in demand today; the
light wood is soft in color and very
popular. A local store is having an
exhibit of examples of this early
American furniture, which are faithful
reproductions of the original pieces
that manufacturing firm has pur-
chased; when unable to buy the orig
inal they had measured drawings
made. This collection is known as
the Ipswich group"
This store has a whole floor de-
voted to the exhibit which is housed
in modest New England cottage. The
exterior is of weather beaten waxed
wood with shingle roof and easement
windows. The interior is made up of
an entrance hall, living room, dining
room and breakfast room ensemble

The entrance hall has a figured wall
paper of the period, making charm
ing background for the soft honey-col-
ored furniture. which consists Of flip
top table with simple white lamp
and shade electrified, as most of the
lamps throughout the cottage have
been, to fit with modern times and
two straight-back chairs with real
rush seats. These chairs display the
Dutch influence, and are reproduc-
tions of an original found at Ipswich,
Mass, made between 1730 and 1740,
The living room has plain oatmeal
wall paper, with a large fireplace
which juts out between easement win
dows. The wall above and surround
ing the fireplace is paneled in maple
with a mantel which is barely more
than a narrow shelf in the true New
England style. This room is at
tractively arranged, with comfortable
groupings of chairs and tables. with
dainty porcelain hand-painted lamps
with white shades. Although we
usually think Of early American
furniture being all wood and no COM
Portable overstuffed sofas and chairs,
we are wrong, for this living room
has a large sofa and chair uphol-
stored in cretonne of dark brown with
large flowers in soft shades of salmon
pink and turquoise. This cretonne
is also used for the curtains which
are straight and hang to the floor. We
questioned the use of overstuffed fur
niture during the period and found
to our surprise that it was exhibited
at the Boston centennial in collec-
ton Of this period
1t is difficult with lack of space to
mention each piece of furniture, but
in this room the 'pull-up" armchairs
are outstanding. They are copies Of

The dining room is lovely, with
figured wallpaper Of white and sepia,
forming an interesting contrast Of
color with the maple furniture. Ono
side of the room is nothing but case
ment windows, below which the wall
is paneled with maple Under the
windows is gateleg table Of the
eighteenth century, which is not only
lovely but very serviceable. The din
ing room table is an accurate repro
duction of a table found in Ipswich,
with the top converted into refec-
tory, or the drawer top for modern
usage. The sideboard is copy of one
in Wallace Nutting's book. 1t is made
as Welsh dresser, with scalloped corr

of the 1730 period in New England.
The arm and side chairs are Windsor
fiuence Of 1850. The original was
found in Salem, Mass. 1t has two
lower drawers that are unusually
deep, with the four above graduated
in depth, making it ideal for china
and linen. There is also corner
cupboard composed of two pieces, a
base and hanging cabinet, to hold
odd china figures. The base held
copper lamp with small shade.
Of from this room is the breakfast
room with a drop-leaf table and wood

Hitchcock in 1850, and a charming
little cabinet. Under the easement

are made of a sheer white material,
which give a fresh and crisp effect

real note of color are the curtains
and seats of the maple chairs, which
are made of an apple-green figured
chintz. On either side of the bed
are small maple tables and the ped

HERE is a letter so full of beauty
wisdom that give it to you,
almost in its entirety: 1t is signed
P. L. to whom I owe a sincere vote of
thanks.
Miss Pierce-My dear lady: A
short time ago you wrote. and I quote:
I have yet to receive letter saying:
My skin is lovely, altogether normal
and I'd like to keep it that way.
II believe we few who have a skin
like this already know how to keep
1t and we leave your column alone
for those who do cry for help. have
taken care Of my skin since the age Of
IA. never used cheap makeup, neither
did I use rouge until / was 20. I
believe most enlarged pores are caused
from the kind of very cheap rouge
that comes in large box, used heavily
and left on for more than one day
because the sweet young thing thinks
she did a good job of smearing her
face and doesn't like to take it off
for fear she can't get the same effect
again. Maybe you're wondering why
I'm writing you about these things
when you already know them, so I'll
tell you. When I was IA years old I
bought myself three kinds of face
cream and also some very good powder.
These along with soap and water
were used every day. Why SO much
cream for girl of IA? was raised
on cattle ranch in the South, out
of doors lot. I'm not pretty; have
a pug nose, straw hair and a faint
pink showing now and then on my
skin, so didn't want cowboy leather
skin TO go along with that
MY sisters laughed at me for using
all these beauty treatments-I being
so young. I am 81 now. Most people

have printed this letter because
it is so simple and direct and because
there must be many young girls living
on ranch in the South and working
outdoors good deal who. like today's
contributor, don't want cowboys

is quite right, even for l4-year-old.

interested and amused? greatly ap-
preciate your advice. ILENE.
Answer-There is no more follow
-you-cannot-faI recipe
for being q companionable wife than
there is for making sponge cake.
1t Is something that should grow nat
urally out of the relationship Of hus-
band and wife since they have so
many common interests in their
struggle to make fortune, their chill
dren and their home.
Unfortunately this is not always the
case, Often the very things that
should bind them together separate
them. The man becomes so absorbed
in his business that he lives in a
different world from his wifes. She
gets SO wrapped up in the children
that she has no time for her husband
or interest in his hopes and plans.
And so he goes his way and she goes
hers until they become such strangers
that they haven't even anything to
say 10 edCn OIneT.
All human relationships perish II
they are neglected, so if you want to
be chums with your husband you
must be willing to make the effort
and take the trouble to cultivate his
society. And begin to do this just as
soon as you are married. Half the
battle is getting off to running start.
Before you wee married you lis
tened to him by the hour when he
talked about himself, his automobile,
his business; reminisced about his
youth and his college days and what
ever topics were dear to his heart.
Don't, soon as you are married, yawn
in his face and tell him that you have
heard all of that thousand times.
Lend him an ear and give him a glad
hand. What every man really marries
for is to get a claque.

MANY woman shuts the door of
her husbands condolences when
she looks bored when he tells her
SOIIlctlllllS dUOuG LID UuSulCSS, OF Wlcn
she interrupts his pet story to say:
Look how cute the kitten is acting"
If you want your husband to chum
with you, you have to be interested in
the things that interest him. You
must enjoy doing the things he does.
You must be willing to grab your hat
and 60 when he wants to step out, or
spend the evening cheerfully at home
when he is tired and wants to sit by
the fire. No doubt this requires sacri-
flee on the wife's part, but you have
to pay for everything you get in this
world, and husband who thinks you
are the best possible company is worth
whatever 1t costs.
Most husbands and wives are COM
panionAhle until the first baby comes.
