Polar Susie .Is New
 Salmon Fly

Yesterday evening in the cool sweep of a Taku Entrance tide flooding past the kelp patch at Marmion Island, Polar Susie was born.
 The little lady is another Juneau creation in the fly-fishing world. Designed last week. she caught a salmon last night. a nice ten-pound cohoe.
 A large streamer fly made of polar bear hair, green body. tin sel and red tag, the Polar Susie has all the colors of a live herring
 Just as strip-fishing supplant- ed the more clumsy method of and-lining salmon in the sport fishing world, so will Polar Susie and the rest of the salmon flies capture the interest of anglers, in the opinion of fly fishing devotees
 A few visiting sportsmen have taken salmon on flies in the Ju neau district, but little interest has been evinced by local anglers in trying the new sport, but the maker of Polar Susie, who desires to re- main anonymous, says everyone will be doing it next year"
 This is the second Juneau" fly to be designed and will take its place beside Alaska Mary Ann, the polar bear hair trout fly.
 How soon the new Polar Susie will be on the market was not revealed by it's inventor, but he indicated it will appear in circula- tion soon in a single large size with some color variants and choice of with or without spinner.

COMMUNICATION
Juneau, Alaska, Aug. 28.

Juneau, Alaska, Aug. 28. To the Daily Alaska Empire:
 An editorial appeared in The Daily Alaska Empire, August 26, entitled Thou Shalt Not" in which the writer tries to give the im- pression that he has thought the matter over carefully, and then ex- plains a so-called parallel situa- tion.'
 In my dictionary the word par allel is defined as lying side by side, equidistant at all points, ex- tended in the same direction" The editorial begins by saying Sup pose the Territory should say, Christianity as it is, is all very well" I am quite sure that our preacher friend. or hundreds of others, who are working for a change in the manner of handling liquor, cannot say this of the system of control, CT lack of control, which was forced upon us in the last Legislature. It is fiendish.
 If the churches in our Territory took money for buildings and hymn books, which was needed to buy shoes for children, and food for their stomachs; if they sent people out their doors in such a condi- tion mentally that they were un- safe to drive cars; if they received and encouraged such liberal gifts from the community, that people were robbed of the necessities of life; if we saw with our own eyes that conditions grew worse daily, then we might call this a parallel. And as a citizen and a church member and the referendum as on the bal lot I would vote Yes" I might not like it, any more than l like liquor Haunted before my children under any system, but l would well come even hope of improvement
 So far as the prayer books and hymnals are concerned. if their ef- feet on people resembled liquor would like to help burn them, and send the ministers out job hunting I am wondering under these cir cumstances what chance of decent job they would have, with either you or me. I believe that expecting any sober parallel as suggested in this disgusting article, is a dis grace to every voter in the Terri tory, and an open insult to every church member.
 l would appreciate it very much if you would publish this.
