HERRING BOATS AND TR0LLERs
AGAIN FIGHT FOR SUPREMACY

JUNEAU-Open warfare near Ju-
neau between herring seiners and
salmon trollers is brewing again af-
ter years of Quiesence Trollers, an
gered by the operations of three
large herring seiners working in
the vicinity of Shoap point, are
making plans to squeeze the bigger
craft out
One troller, it was reported here,
laid a rifle beside his gurdy pit
when a seiner attempted to steer
him out of position to make room
for a herring seine, but trouble was
averted when the seiner steered off.
Trollers say that seine boats have
not operated for herring in Stephens
passage for many years, but schools
of the small fish are now beginning
to appear there.

TO break the rules and dress
them up with pearls; just

with clips or barpins of colored

DINNER AT LITTLE TABLES

Dear Mrs Post: We would Ike
10 give a dinner but our dining
room is too small TO seat the NUM-
Der Of people. I had thought OF
having a buffet but my HUSBAND
takes the attitude that others cat
not possibly like buffet meals an,
better than he does. As a possible
alternative he has suggested inVi,-
ing our friends TO the house 10
have cocktails and then taking
them 10 a neighborhood restau-
rant where We would have ordered
beforehand. and bringing them
home afterward 10 play bridge. l,
on the other hand, think We could
manage to serve five card tables
by standing them in the living
room and sun room. both OF wnlch
are very big rooms. We have one
maid and would have another one
for this occasion. What would your
own preference be If. let us say.
you found yourself in similar
situation 10 this :
Answer. ! would give the dinner
at little tables, and ! think there
is little doubt that your friends
would rather stay in one pslce IN
stead of coming and going and
coming back again. Buffet parties
are essential to many hostesses
whose houses are not very big.
But as you have the space there
couldn't be anything nicer than a
dinner at little tables. Two maids
can do the serving perfectly. espe-
cially II you choose fewest but
most substantial dishes that VIII
necessarily make service as simple
as possible. There are full diree-
tons for serving big dinner at
little tables in the new edition OF
my book at your nearest library)
Dear Mrs. Post: What should my
husband and ! wear at concert
recital? We are sitting in best
seats in case that makes any diff
ference and l feel sure that it
must.
Answer: Questions like this one
depend upon the customs of par.
ticular communities. That is, in
most cities your husband would
wear dinner coat ttuxedo) and
you simple evening dress. At a
concert given by distinguished
artists, in New York in midwinter.
he would wear tails and you would
wear a more elaborate evening
dress. In simple communities
where people never wear evening
dress you would both naturally
wear whatever clothes you would
ordinarily choose If you were go
ing to any evening party.
