PETE W0LD iS IN JUNEAU ON
 WAY OUTSIDE
Brings in Washington Aff- CT Nearly Freezing in
 at Goodnews Bay

Veteran Westward skipper Pete Wold and engineer Ed Anderson, arrived in Juneau this morning from a summer in Goodnews Bay after a close race with winter ice aboard his boat Washington.
 Wold took over the 64-foot Wash ington, former Oceanic Fisheries seiner and has been using it for lighterage work in Goodnews Bay.
 Passengers Aboard
 Aboard the vessel with Wold and Anderson are Bud Hansen, son of the well known trader at Platinum and who has been working with the Strandberg platinum opera tions; Leonard White, member of the ill-fated Polar Bear wreck off Siberia few years ago, also work ing with Strandbergs; Charles Mills, stranded victim of a Los Angeles mine promotion; Kenneth Knutsen. nephew of Harold Knutsen, skip per of the Bureau of Fisheries yes sel Penguin; Joe Rouse, Goodnews miner -prospector, and MT. and Mrs. Norman Smith and three children.
 Gcodnews Bay Freezing
 Wold pulled out from Goodnews October IT after freezing had be- gun Octover 10 and finally got out October 31. Engineer Anderson said slush ice was so deep and heavy on the way out that the engines water intake only worked half of the time One of the Wold barges was lost in the ice when it had to be cut loose,. but another was fortunately saved.
 An attempt was made to salvage the wrecked motorship Martha, piled up in an attempt to save a drifting lighterage barge, but to no avail. Anderson said he believed little would be salvaged from the Martha.
 Wold expects to be in Juneau day or so on business before head ing south for the winter.

 While he made this matter-o of fact statement, dark-eyed wiry Mrs. Smith smiled and looked proudly from one healthy normal child to another, the youngest of them, in dress, chewing busily on a five cent tallow candle.
 I'm pretty tough" she laughed, but added that if she is ever to go back to her wilderness home and friends, she'd rather walk" than be seasick from Goodnews Bay to Seattle.

Thirteen years ago, 18-year-old Norman Smith, fresh from Ballard High School in Seattle, journeyed to the Fort Yukon country above the Arctic Circle with trapper friend Today in Juneau, heading south for the first time since then, Smith is aboard Pete Wolds boat Washington with 23-year-old na- tive wife and three children born in the wilderness without the aid of a doctor and who, until this summer, had never seen civiliza- tion beyond Fort Yukon. ~
 Without a bean and driven out" by the bad end of the rab- bit cycle, Smith plans to get a job in the States.
 With his wife and children, Gwendolyn, 6; Myrtle, 4, and Ray mond l, Smith padded down from the Arctic to Gcodnews Bay this summer. He went down Willow Creek, into the Coleman, thence into the Porcupine, into the Yukon, down that mighty stream in their 19-foot canoe with a tiny out board motor to aid them, across the water portage from Russian Mission 60 miles to the Kuskok- vim River, on down the Kuskok- vim and into the salt water of Boring Sea and to Goodnews Bay.
 The family began their long jour ney in July and stopped twice along the route to work for1 a little grub money"
 Smith met his wife at Fort Yu- kon as a 15-year-old native girl turning IS. Together they built trapping home on remote Willow Creek far above the Arctic Circle in one of the remotest areas of the North
 Their nearest neighbor was 25 miles away. Fort Yukon was over 300 miles away, the nearest settle ment, and when Gwendolyn, Myr- tie, and Raymond came along, two of them in April while snows were

at the same time giving 1t an ex-
cellent powder base. One of their
unusual preparations is an ointment
to take the redness out of noses!
This item, SO they tell us, almost
magically causes the cleaning pro-
boscis to become toned down to its
natural hue, and at this season, with
all of us sneezing and shifting, it
should prove to be real asset. After
all, there's nothing more disconcert-
ing than red nose. English ladies
never seem to be bothered by them
maybe this has something to do
with it.
But 1t does seem to take Ameri-
cans to think up amazingly original
ideas, doesn't it? Take, for instance,
the newest, most tricky cosmetic
combination we've seen in many a
day. 1t is set of lipstick and ker-
chief to match, the latter made Of
white chiffon embellished with
bright red lips, bold black eyes and
bordered with two red stripes and
one black one The lipsticks, in four
shades, identically match the lips on
the kerchiefs and the whole effect
is amusing and gay. You can wear
the kerchief around your neck, over
your head, at your wrist or pocket
and it will lend a sparkling and
springlike effect to your dark clothes
now as we'll as your outfits for later
on BY the way, you'll be sur
prised at the reasonable price.
Speaking of kerchiefs somehow
brings to mind the makeup cape
which has lately become so popular.
This is the handy item made of a
satiny, rubberized material-and it
is certainly an aid in keeping you
we'll groomed. At home or Office, you
may slip this little cape over your
dark dresses and feel free to comb
your hair or powder your nose with
out undergoing thorough brush
ing after the operation. The cape
is equipped with pocket that holds
all your cosmetic needs and it
comes in three dainty shades. It
would make a really exceptional
gift, too.
One of the very new products
on the market-at least new here
in Westinghouse a lotion that is
said to improve the complexion. The
idea is to apply the formula which,
they tell us, will cover blemishes on
the skin. After seven days use, the
complexion should show definite
improvement. Object of this new
product is to cover defects of the
skin while 1t is clearing them, and
is a treatment which formerly was
offered only in beauty salons. Now,
however, it is put up in small bot
ties which are available to us all.
And these are but a few of the fine
products to be found these days
-. lately there has been perfect
deluge of new and attractive items
to take their place with those tried
and true preparations which are so
firmly established. We don't know
what's gotten into the cosmetic
firms-they're just bursting with
ideas. Maybe it's the springtime.

BY HELEN VOGT.

What, says polite society, will be
the effect of the forthcoming visit
of their majesties-the King and
Queen? No one seems to know, and
in spite of the fact that the front
page spotlight is turned on this ap-
preaching trip, there are still nu-
merous questions in the minds of
every one involved.
There is one thing certain, how
ever, and that is the fact that the
eyes of beauty will be turned on
English clothes, manners, complex
ions and general appearance. The
fashion and cosmetic world is never
one to overlook an opportunity to
press a new influence, and it may be
that our trend toward fragile, lady,
like compilations and clothes are the
direct result of this impending visit.
A very famous English cosmetic
firm, now well established in Amer
lea, says that the English ladies get
their clear skinned, dewy look by
keeping their skins clean. Their ad-
vice is to keep your makeup on the
surface, not in your pores, and their
line of preparations-famous so
many years abroad-has become
very popular with women here. Lo-
tions are their speciality, and they
provide those that protect the skin,

Exercises for
The Stocky
Woman
They Should Help
Reduce Fleshy
Upper Arms
BY PATRICIA LINDSAY.

A group of girls recently wrote
me to this effect: "We wish you
would write column for the short,
stocky girl whose weight seems
to be on the upper arms. back and
neck, and who also has a protrud-
ing abdomen.
Three of us, married. with chill
dren, range in height from 4 feet
II inches to 5 feet l inch and
all have the above problems. Please
give us some pointers on dressing
for height and slimness."
Unfortunately these three girls
did not tell me how much they
weigh-that would help me to give
them the correct advice.
My first advice is for these girls,
and others of similar figures, to
send for three of my leaflets If
they have not already done so:
"Beautifying Midriff," How to
Keep Young-Looking' and Rules
to Danish Dowager's Hump"
These leaflets contain directions
for good posture, exercises to
strengthen and reduce protruding
abdomen and to Danish offending
pads of flesh on shoulders and neck.
To these exercises I should like
to add the following, which reduces
the upper arm, if you do it faith
fully each day. 1t is suggested
by Miss Dorothy Nye, specialist in
corrective exercises.
1-Sit or stand with arms out
to side, shoulder high, hands bent
sharply at wrist with palms and
fingers pointing backward. Move
arms forward with resistance, wrist
leading.
2-When arms are straight out
in front of body, make a circle Of
hands, finishing with palms up.
Fold hands back over wrists and
bend elbows. Turn hands and arms
inward 80 that right hand passes
under right armpit, left arm un-
der lett armpit, and extend straight
out to side with palms up. Relax.
Six times altogether.
If you are overweight, you must
decide to diet carefully. Cut out
sweets and spend at least 20 min
utes each day doing the movements
mentioned above.
