Gl0rUing Yourself
By Alicia Hart
1NEA Service Staff Wrtier)

With the ultra feminine theme that has dominated the fashion and beauty pictures for spring sure to remain important for months to come, this will be summer to strive assiduously to be as dainty as fastidiously groomed from head to foot as possible.
 The girl who wants to measure up," will begin right now to take ex- cellent care of her legs, feet and ankles. Even though she doesn't plan to spend many hours in bath ing suit, she appreciates how sheer. how all-revealing the stockings she'll be wearing will be.
 As start on your own campaign for more attractive legs, resolve to rid them of superfluous hair oftener than you probably did during the winter months. If you aren't satis- fled with your present method of superfuous hair removal, shop around bit. You might try one of the waxes on the market now. Some are to be applied cold, others to be heated. Both varieties are efficacious. That is, if used exactly according to directions.
 New Razor
 If you just want to keep on us- ing a razor, you might like to look at a new one, designed for women only. It's small, curved, feminine looking, and is supposed to keep you from cutting yourself so fre- quently. Legs that have just been shaved ought to be rubbed with cologne, then softened with hand or body lotion, then dusted with bath powder.
 If you wish to bleach super fluous hair use solution of equal parts of toilet ammonia, peroxide and water. (Be sure to tell the drug gist that you intend to use the am- monia as bleach). Incidentally, this solution, used frequently, will weaken hairs as well as make them several shades lighter.
 Scrub ankles, feet and knees with a medium stiff brush every time you IdhC DdLll. II GllCy HuAOC smooth and white, rub hand lotion into them frequently, cover them with night cream once or twice a week and massage 1t in with vigor- ous upward strokes.
 Cuticle remover, applied every other night, will discourage those disagreeable callouses on the back of heels. They never should be cut or pared with knife, of course, and if you decide to rub them away with bit of pumice, be ever so gen. tie and don't try to remove any cal lous with one treatment, or two, or even ten. It's mistake to expect any beauty treatment to work over night miracles.

school of childhood, also appreciate what even the wisest parent has to cope with. I do not believe, nor would I care to, that all small youngsters are intellectual little cherubs without black mark against their records.
 Unjust Punishment
 But first let us get one thing out of our systems. No little child should be punished for things we overlook in his teen-year-old broth CT. Their offenses are not the same, but they are parallel. Yet we allow the big child to escape atonement, so often, while we feel rather vitu- ous in punishing the smaller crim- inal. We mistakenly think he de- serves it more. The pre-school child has less control than the older child, and therefore is less to blame when he gets into mischief.
 "Scolding" almost always indi- cates over emotion on the parents part. It has certain uses, perhaps, but after while any child gets weary of it. It slides off his pro tective defenses, like water oil a ducks back. It also serves to age US quickly, causes wrinkles, and makes us hate ourselves in the end.
 Whipping" is out. q think 1t denotes switch, doesn't itO Spanking" once in 8 long while. has been known to bring a small radical to his senses. But be care ful, when you feel you must resort to 1t, because 1t may be the very straw to break the last vestage Of self-respect of a sensitive or "in- ferior" child. My own answer to this puzzling problem is, Know your child, know all about his reasons and his crime and know yourself.

those of her romantic organdy and organza evening gowns. Even with certain moulded evening models. she achieves great fullness by means Of a low set and gathered train.
 Alix follows the international trend of the season by borrowing inspiration from those glamorous costumes Indian women wear in the Far East. She drapes yards and yards of chiffon jersey or crepe into elegant effects and often uses a headdress which frames the face in nun-like severity. With these cos tunes, she presents fiat barefoot sandals which are worn sans stock ings.
 Alix is at all times original this season--from the use of real silk oil- skin for full gathered coats and capes over street ensembles to the tucking away of colored life-like birds in the folds of white taf- feta evening gown.

CLAPP STRESSES JOINT INTERESTS TAC0MA,ALASKA
Air Mail, Tourist Industry Mean Much to Territory
 and Northwest

Bringing greetings from the Ta- coma Chamber of Commerce of which he is prominent member, Norton Clapp of the Alaska Trans portation Company and Tacoma financier who is here aboard his yacht, the Carmelita, was a guest of the Juneau Chamber at it's luncheon today noon at Percy's Cafe.
 Tacoma and Juneau are working for projects which will be of mu- tual benefit to Alaska and the Northwest MT. Clapp pointed out. Among them he listed air mall, lower telegraphic rates and the tourist industry. All mean much to the Puget Sound cities as well as the Territory, he said. He referred particularly to the tourist industry which has grown to such propor- tions in Washington that the state has set aside $300,0O0 to further promote the industry We expect to get the money back in gasoline tax receipts through the additional n u m Der of automobile tourists which will visit the state" he said.
 "The tourist business to our way of thinking is one of the great industries of the Northwest and naturally it is to Alaska" he added. We hope to make the Northwest and Alaska the tourist mecca of the world instead of Europe and abroad as has been the case in the past. We feel that if we all work toward that end we can do it. If we can get them to the Northwest. a great many of them are certain to come to Alaska. These are the sort of things which bind the Northwest and Alaska closer and closer together"
 L. J. Goldman, Field Naturalist for the Biological Survey, gave the Chamber brief outline of what is being done to conserve and build up migratory bird life in the Unit~ ed States. Canada and Mexico. Since the treaty between the three countries on the migratory bird problems, the steady decline in number of birds has been halted. he said, and now definite start has been made toward an increase. Repopulating the vast northern nesting grounds is now one of the major goals and when this is ac- complished through establishment of further refuges in the states coupled with strict regulations, bet ter shooting will be enjoyed all along the Always from Alaska south, he brought out.

stocks and perhaps real estate. He makes a profit of $5,000 on the deal. That is income and he must pay 15 percent tax under the bill. Now along comes a big fellow and sells in big way and makes a half million dollar killing. But. says the President, instead of taxing him a high percentage of such earnings, the new tax measure says that all he has to pay is the same as the little fellow, or IS percent.
 Not so, says Harrison next day in the Senate. The big boy not only has to pay the l5 percent but his half million profit reaches high into the upper bracket where the in- come and surtax take off big hunks.
 Evidently they still agree that the bigger the income the bigger the share which should go to the gov ernment.
 But when President Roosevelt in effect appealed to Congress and the American people to override the tax bill next year Harrison came right back with the suggestion that he should have liked the President to

By PRESTON GROVER

WASHINGTON, June Is. - From an examination of the speeches Of Senator Pat Harrison and President Roosevelt it is fairly evident they are not exceedingly far apart on tax principles, but they are long way from harmony on what to do right now to meet the recession -depres- sion
 Speaking before 13 high school seniors at Arthurdale, w. Vas the President said the new tax bill was designed in many respects to hit the little fellow and his little corporation about as hard as it hit the big fellow. He insisted this was not fair. and that it was an aban- donment of American principle to back away from taxing people in proportion to ability to pay.
 The question is, did Senator Har- rison catch the President a bit off base with that one. particularly since MT. Roosevelt sought to illus trate it with the capital gains tax?
