SLED D0G5 MAY BE REPLACED BY
 SNOW PLANE NOW

THE PAS, Man, Feb. 13. - The faithful sled dog, familiar sight on northland trails, soon may be re- placed by propeller-driven snow planes, it was reported recently by the Department of Game and Fish cries.
 Huskies in the service of the de- partnent will be the only dogs af- fected by the machine, which at present is being driven on a test run over northern lakes by Norman Mackenzie, fisheries inspector.
 "Other test runs have made have proved the snow planes to be faster and more satisfactory than the dogs I have driven for several years, Mackenzie said. The present run over the northern lakes district will give the snow plane thorough test ing"

"GOOD. CLEAN FUN"

GOOD, CLEAN FUN"
 Here is another example. The Army, Navy and Coast Guard came up for an emergency supplemental appropriation to speed up the de- fense program and finance the neu- trality patrol. They asked $271,- S99,523. In a fury of economy the House trimmed $4,801 ,6l5 off that bill. But it wasn't a net saving by any means. They authorized the Navy to go ahead with $2,450000 of building. The money for it will be appropriated perhaps next year, af- ter election.
 In an even greater wave of econ omy, the Senate cut SIP, 788,664 off this emergency bill. Part of it was good, clean savings but part of it- about half-was just good, clean fun. The Senate simply told the Navy to wait about six months before it bought 81 scout bombers at a cost of $6.875,O ,O00

Government spending to thrift and also keep out of war
 In his first political speech of 1s40, Hoover pointed to what he called three wrong notions which are largely responsible for creating the relief situation Said he: NThe first notion is that the whole system is wrong and must be made over. That is what they call revolution in Europe.
 AThe second is that Government officials plan direct or operate the economic life of the people. That is what they call statism in Europe"
 Hoover said that the third wrong notion is that the Government can spend and borrow continually with

HELPFUL HINTS FOR GIRLS
THE SECRET OF KEEPING COOL
By Marian Jaxon

1. Keep your complexion cool hy cleaning your face and ap- plying new makeup during the day instead of putting new make up over the old.
 2. Use as little face powder as possible, just enough to remove the shine. Have your powder al- ways a shade darker than your skin.
 ?. Wear light colored clothes; immediately clean white shoes, gloves, hats and bags will make a somber costume look cool.
 4. Don't wear tight clothes; be sure dresses and blouses are loose under the arms, summers chief danger point. ;: When you are relaxed, drink plenty of cooling drinks.
 6. Wear the kinds of perfume that give you fresh effect.
 7. Stay out of the sun as much as possible.
 8. Keep yourself busy, bu' don't rush if you can help it.

HOUSEHOLD

"Mack-rel, mack-rel, mack-rel, Lady?" Lissa Lee raised the win dow and leaned out as the huck- ster rushed over with some fine fresh-looking mackerel. They're good, lady-just in and they're beauts." Lissa tried to decide on the purchase, but she really had never tasted that kind of fish. In after years it seemed so funny to hear other strangers to the coast say they had never eaten fresh mackerel-so plentiful and so eco- nomically priced. Lissa Lee be- came very fond of them in time.
 "You fry lem just like any fish, madame, and they eat well. I'm here to tell you" Lissa let her hesitancy slip and bought two medium-sized ones. She could not, to save her, remember noticing how much of any thing Aunt Lou back home had bought. The huck- ster also sold her some nice looking cucumbers and red to- matoes. Potatoes and most other staples she had.
 Lissa fingered by the window idly watching the huckster as he bartered with the various house. wives on his route. The sun was warm and bright with early sum- mer and busy pigeon families on adjoining roofs strutted and ar gued and leased, as all families do.
 But that's what makes your family dear," Lissa yearned with a pinch of homesickness. But she quickly hushed it with a snatch of some popuar song and gath ering her purchases, carried them to the kitchen.
 They were to stay on here, right house keeping for the present. Jack had made arrangements for an apartment to be all ready for her and his bride. The day before Lissa arrived they were to be married from her cousins home next day-there had been a fire, practically running the apartment.
 So they had settled here with Jacks very kind landlady, Mrs. Hart, and she was so motherly and free that Lissa already felt quite at home and happy. Jack had teased her a bit about being so far from home. "You know, Lissa, I'm beginning to think I must be a pretty good-looking guy for you to leave al the folks back home and-cleave only unto me"-"O, Jack, you-you" and, To and be- hold, she was just boo-hoo-ing. He caught her up and hugged her dearly. "Why, you silly little kit ten, what are you crying for? So you are homesick-eh? ?" But Lissa didn't stop. She had a good cry about it once and for all, hiding her wet face on his dear old pro- tecting shoulder. But she was getting over all that and trying hard to overcome her poor ability as cook.
 Continued next week.
