Seiner Captain Learns Here of
 A|den's Wreck
Companion Boat of Alden "Holed Up' in Sum
 days Fierce Gale

The seiner Gladiator, from Thumb Bay, Prince William Sound. came into Juneau today after a trip across the Gulf of Alaska to learn from The Empire that one of it's companion boats, the Alden had been lost at sea.
 Nels Gunderson, skipper on the Gladiator, said he left Thumb Bay to cross the Gulf last week with the Christine and the Alden, which latter vessel was abandoned to the gale Sunday night.
 Gunderson said he lost the two other boats off Cape Hinchinbrook, and when the weather looked too tough, went in to Cordova to get shelter from the storm that caused the loss of the Alden.
 Halibut fishermen's hopes of sal wage from the abandoned boat were dashed when Gunderson sald he had seen wreckage near Hinchin- brook that probably came from the Alden"

RURAL HOUSEWIVES

According to a report,
recently issued by Uncle
Sans Bureau of Home Eco
nOmics, the lady of the house
on the farm, works on an
average of sixty-two hours a
week, which is practically
nine hours a day. Assuming
that she gets eight hours for
sleep there remains seven
hours unaccounted for. Pre-
sumably she is spending this
time resting to carry on for
the sixty-two hours of toll.
But even during the meal,
which might be rest time she
usually serves the others-so
where go the rest periods
She occasionally sits on the
porch during the afternoon
and chats with a visiting
neighbor, but during this
interval she is no doubt darn

ing socks or turning collars
or some of the other neces-
sary tasks of a thrifty house
wife. How many citizens
ever saw an orderly mistress
of the country household sit
ting doing nothing? This is
one class of worker who is
never puzzled over how to
occupy their leisure time. She
has not much time for poll
tics or the agitation of eco
nomic questions. She scarce
ly gives thought to Com
munist and Fascist argu-
ments and has no time to
carry a banner in a parade.
She is busy saving the sound
social fabric of the country
that so many others are seek
ing to enjoy. She forms the
foundation stone of the real
American home.

SLAUGHTER AFTER DARK

What mo torist hasn't
watched from a speeding car
the frantic course of a rab-
lit along the highway at
night, until the cottontail is
annihilated under the bright
lights that began his flight?
The secretary of the game
conservation department of
the state of Pennsylvania
estimates more than a million
rabbits are killed on the high
ways of his state alone every
year.
Automobiles are apparently
killing half as many rabbits
as the hunters of the coun-
try shoot, which is costly
business in states where as
much as a dollar per rabbit
has been spent in restocking
the fields, often $4,000 in a
single season. Additional
thousands of. dollars from
hunters license fees have also
been spent on game farms
and breeding areas. Rab-
bits are the most popular of
small game in almost every

PENCILS AND CHECKS

1t is difficult to believe that
there isn't one level-headed,
responsible citizen, who would
think of handing his pocket
book to a stranger and letting
him walk away with it, but
that there are a number of
these same responsible citi-
zens who actually trust an
unknown to draw all of their
money out of the bank and
think nothing of it! It is
true that this very thing
occurs several times daily,
almost every day in the year,
not only here but in prac-
tically every community in
which banks do business and
checks are written.
Despite the fact that bank
ers have for years cautioned
their depositors not to issue
checks written with a lead
pencil, the practice still pre-
walls to a larger extent than
the average citizen would
imagine. That more people
are not victimized and robbed
of their hard-earned dollars
as a result of it, is probably
due wholly to the good luck
and kindness of fate. Ger
tainly it is not due to to the

state in the union, now that
quail cannot be shot at all
in many states and only for
a very limited shooting sea-
son in others. Throughout
the mid-western states there
has been a marked decrease
in their numbers in recent
years, and only one midwest
ern state now permits the
rabbit to be trapped and
shipped outside the border.
Their fast-growing scarcity
can be traced to but one
source = their slaughter by
automobiles after dark.
The rabbit is a stupid
beast, incapable of learning
from experience, but we pre-
fer his society to that of the
type of driver who kills dogs,
cats, chickens and small
game animals as callously as
he would run over a cater
pillar. They can be avoided
usually if the driver chooses,
and the man who doesn't
choose is the type of driver
that other men, as well as
rabbits, should avoid.

mess methods of those who
have not learned the danger
that turks back of the pencil
written check.
Check raising has long
been a fine art in this coun-
try, so much so that science
and invention have been
called upon, with the result
of the production of so-called
safety paper, check-writing
and perforating machines.
Even these inventions have
failed to discourage the check
raiser. He continues to claim
his millions in profit every
year. If such modern inven-
lions make the check drawn
IN pen and Ink no longer
proof against the skilled
check worker, think what an
easy mark he will find the
man who writes a check that
requires only a penny pencil
and eraser to alter at will,
and with little if any danger
of detection until it has
passed through the bank, and
then the damage has been
done. Don't trust your bank
account to a stranger into
whose hands your pencil writ
ten check may fall. Write it
in pen and ink or let it go
unwritten!

Dorothy Dix Says
Women Have as Many Causes to
Dodge Marriage as Men Have.

THE other day wrote about some
of the things that men dislike
most about marriage Women also
have their pet peeves against the holy
estate, and perhaps the greatest Of
these is their husbands taking them
for granted.
Although she has never seen it hap
pen every girl still cherishes the
deathless hope that no matter what
other husbands are her husband is
going to be the perfect lover and
spend the next 20 to 40 years in tell
ing her how beautiful and wonderful
she is, and how much he adores her.
Hence when he drops all his love
making at the altar with sudden
ness that jars her sweet tooth loose;
when he ceases to marvel at her per-
fections and considers that he gives a
pretty good indication of devotion by
working his fingers to the bone to keep
her soft and comfortable, she begins
wailing out that she is poor, heart
hungry, neglected wife who has lost
her husbands affections.
When women gloom over the disil-
lusions and disappointments OF mar
riage what they really mean is that
they thought that marriage was going
to be perpetual petting party in
which they would play the star roles
as glamorous lady loves. When they
found out that the wedding ended the
romance and that they had to live on
plain bread and butter instead OF an
gels food they couldn't take 1t. They
lost their taste for marriage.

Sane
Reducing
Regime
The Loose.Lookina
Frocks Will Not
Hide Bulges.
BY ELSIE PIERCE,

I CAN'T remember being at odds
with fashion in the last decade.
In fact, 1t seems to me that I've
applauded every little whim Of hers.
no matter how tantalizing or trying.
So long as 1t seemed basically sane
or at least offered women a challenge,
that was all We could ask Of any style.
But I do fear for the loose look
that marks fashions latest edict. True,
the billowy sleeves. the blouSed look,
the full skirt all help to make the
waistline look all the simmer by
contrast. True that it Il essentially
youthful fashion and we hope only
the sweet young things who have
nothing TO hide will adopt it.
Still there is the lurking fear that
the not-so-sylph-like figure may hide
behind the vogue as an excuse for
easing up in the curve-control cam
paign.
When clothes are worn so skin
tight that they look poured on and
reveal every extra pad or bulge, wom-
en- are quick to work off the excess.
The more exacting fashions demands,
the greater the challenge to perfection,
the more consistent women are in hv-
ing up to the higher standards.
Where's the challenge in the loose
look? You may say: Women should
know that they cannot hide an over
developed arm under billowy sleeve:
or fat chest under the bloused
basoues." Maybe not. But YOU can't
blame them for trying to get away
with 1t"
I admit I feel that fashion, in in
Producing the loose look. has failed
beauty. But there's solace In the
fact that fashion is tickle enough
and versatile enough to call for
quick change from a loose-bloused
afternoon frock to a tight
ond-skin evening dress. And there
had better not be q bit Of bulge in
that!
A safe and sane reducing regime
started now will find you sylph-like
for spring and summer fashions mo
matter what they may be-.

Queries From
People in
Business
Mistake to Be Seen
With Employer
Frequently.
By EMILY POST.

DEAR MRS. POST: I am Obliged
~ to go one day every week to our
district ONCE In the suburbs, and my
employer frequently offers to drive
me there. or II he happens to be In
that territory on days am there, he
stops around and offers to drive me
home. My mother, being Of the old
stay-at-home school. cannot quite
comprehend the exigencies which
arise in the business world that make
it all right for young woman some
times to be in the company Of . busi-
ness man who happens to be married.
In other words, mother thinks that
I am running = good chance of being
talked about unpleasantly by other
members Of the company and by our
neighbors as we'll, who at times must
see him drive me to the house. I
claim it is all aboveboard and no one
can possibly ind anything to talk
about. But mothers apprehension Is
leading me to ask you frankly: Is the
situation I have just described out OF
order? And If 80, will you please tell
me how I am to refuse his offers with
out Awkwardness? Mother has no
suggestion, unfortunately, on that
score.
Answer-In the final analysis you
and you alone know the right answer
to this. It is not 30 much the fact
that your employer drives you once
q week to . district ONCE; at least it
would not be II he himself were going
to the .oface. But to leave the town
Office and always be ready to take you
to the district one and also to make
his plans 20 that he can stop ct the
district ONCE and bring you back
seems to me to have . good deal Ct
food in it for gossip. Or, perhaps 1t is
the way you have put it in your let
ter. As have already said, you your
self are the only one who knows the
right answer. II you think your
mother may be right. then the only
Evening star., 1938-03-14

way out Of it I know is to be frank
and tell him, since the neighbors have
begun to talk about you, that you are
afraid the office may do the same
thing. In fact. I think the more en-
phasis you put on business the bet
ter. On the other hand, if you your
self feel that it is absolutely all right
and you are not seeing him at any
other times. then perhaps no one will
criticize your going with him.
nEAR MRS. POST: am a business
woman whose 10th birthday ami
versary is coming soon. I tell you
this in case it may affect your answer
as to the suitability of my business
cards. I have heretofore simply used
the form Miss Blank" and the name
Of the firm represent in the lower
left corner. Recently, however, I read
an answer you gave to = widowed
mother who thought perhaps the
plan of having Mrs. JONES'" rather
than MRS. John Jones" on her cards,
would eliminate any possible confu-
sion to others, since her son was to
have his first personal cards and they
were to carry the name "Mr. John
Jones'" You brought up the possibility
Of other Jones relatives resenting her
setting herself up in this way As the
head Of the Jones family. So will
you tell me If have, quite innocently,
I assure you, set myself up in some
arrogant way.
Answer-As = matter of fact, your
card is that Of q representative Of the
firm whose name Is engraved in the
lower left-hand corner. Therefore.
unless there Is another Miss Blank"
in the same firm, there could be no
confusion. At the same time, even in
such = case, I think If were having
new plates made I would be inclined
to call myself Miss Margaret Blank"
for the sake Of better Identification.
Certainly, too, = complete name Is
more usual. But whether you change,
or continue to use the card as you
always have, is equally correct.

golden yellows and odd cyclamen and
fuchsia tones.
You will be wanting to have all
these colors in your spring wardrobe
and according to the modern idea,
any woman can wear any color If she
chooses the right makeup. This does
not contradict the fact that some
colors will still be more becoming than
others, but merely makes it possible
to wear any color with 4 degree Of
satisfaction that was not known . few
years back.
In connection with the importance
of new colors, 1t is most interesting to
know that during the Paris openings
last month. while cables were flashing
the descriptions of the clothes shown
by Alix, Molyneux. Vionnet and all the
others, scouts were busy watching for
the most desirable colors, which were

consisting of leading fashion and color
authorities. and here they are: Alix
ruby IA rich. deep blush ruby, Alix
blue "a soft steel blue). Molyneux
grain yellow "a warm. golden beige)
and Molyneux chalk blue "a delicate
milky blue, with soft pink and white
undertones).
These colors and derivatives Of them.
often called by other names, furnish
the basis of the new color schemes. and
as q result OF this color furry we have
q whole new set-up Of spring colors in
makeup including new nail polish
shades. Little cards showing these
colors with harmonizing makeup may
be seen at several local shops.

MAKEUP to blend with and en-
A nance the new Alix blue con-
sists Of an illusion rachel powder

with 4 blush green and lashes
touched with dark blue. Cheeks are
tinged with 4 delicate shade called
"coquette" and for the lips is one Of
the most popular lipsticks Of the sea-
son with . lovely purplish, rosy cast
and blue undertones that Is equally
smart with blue, cyclamen and the
whole range Of blue pinks that are
seen 50 frequently. Finger nails are
matched to lips, but are q deeper tone.
All Of these harmonizing requisites OF

French say, come neatly fitted into
one box for convenient use and are
not as expensive as If purchased sep
arately.
Do not feel that this is An ex-
travagance, for more than ever before
colors must be properly blended this
