HANGAR5 FOR PRIVATE PLANES
 INVESTIGATED
Chamber of Commerce Is Looking for Facilities
 for Avidtors

The aviation committee of the Juneau Chamber of Commerce is going to busy itself in the next few weeks Investigating the possibil- ities of building hangars and stop over facilities for privately owned planes at either the new Civil Aero nautics Administration field here or at the PA field. it was an- nounced today at the weekly meet ing of the chamber at the Baranof Hotel.
 The chamber aviation committee is also slated to investigate re- ported bad conditions at the sea- plane hangar in the small boat haven here. Reports made to the chamber directors declared that flotsam and rubbish have drifted into the hangar until it is almost beyond use.
 Guests of the chamber this noon were Lieutenant Commander Park Willis, Ensign Garrett Eddy and Ensign Sid Dennison of the U. s. s. Amber, naval recruiting ship now in Juneau.
 Ensign Dennison, former Forest Service man here, explained that the purpose of the present recruit ing trip is to enlist men for service in Alaska waters. The navy needs men who know Alaska waters and weather conditions, he stated. It is hoped that Alaskans can be re- cruited to make up at least skeleton crews on all navy ships in Alaska. Men will be given navy ratings com parable to their ability, Dennison stated
 Dennison also pointed out that the present recruiting trip is talk ing men between the ages of IT and 50 and that the physical require ments are rot as strict for enlist ment in this service as in the reg ular navy.
 Dennison stated that efforts are being made to have Robert Scho- sttler, manager of the Baranof Hotel and reserve lieutenant in the navy, designated as recruiting of ficer here and also to have recruit ing stations located at Sitka and Ketchikan.
 Willis also spoke briefly, outlin- ing the advantages of navy life as compared to army life and urging men who are of draft age to ser iously consider navy enlistment before they are called into active army service.

 NOW STARTING
Patrol Boat Crane Heads for Kodiak and Prince
 William Sound

After only two hours in port here last night, the Fish and Wildlife Service boat Crane pulled out for Kodiak and Prince William Sound districts to carry on an investiga- tion of the herring run.
 The Crane recently completed salmon patrol work in the Alaska Peninsula district and made a round trip to Seattle with tenn porary fisheries employees from the Westward districts. Its present trip is being made as portion of the herring investigation work in All aska under a recent special Con- gressional appropriation of $34,00O, being administered by the scientific division of the Fish and Wildlife Service.
 The work will include the tag ging of herring and securing data on the age ratio of fish taken by commercial herring fisherman. Four plants on Kodiak Island and six plants on Prince William Sound are this year processing herring.
 It is expected that the 250000- barrel quota of herring in the Kod- iak district will be reached by plants this week. Up to the present time, about 190000 barrels of the 250,- 00-barrel quota in Prince William Sound district has been taken.
 Commercial fishing for herring is still being permitted outside the boundaries of quota areas after quotas have been reached. It is ex- pected the herring operations in both areas will continue until late fall. with the plants processing fish from outside the quota areas after their quotas have been filled by the nearby fishing banks.

 Seattle

Movie actor Lew Ayres lay in bed in the Baranof Hotel tn S morning with a cold, asking not to be disturbed because the tele- phone was too far from his bed.
 The pr. Kildare of the motion picture series, one time scheduled to fly by Lodestar to Seattle today, found bad weather had delayed his flight, then made reservations to fly to Sitka for the day. Bad weather cancelled his flight south, and weather, starting a cold in the chest of the non-acclimated actor, cancelled his plane trip to the Coast.

Shoes With Helpful
Adjustable Arch
Featured Here
Bv Helen Voef.

Do your fet hurt? Are your shoes
ill-ftting and uncomfortable? Is 1t
an effort to walk more than block?
If the answer is in the Affirmative,
it's a sign that you haven't had a
chat with Mr.. Fikany, originator OF
those wonderful adjustable arch
shoes.
For this dynamic gentleman has
made great strides toward feminine
foot comfort in the last i've years,
and his marvellous. though simple,
! innovation is creating excitement
around town. It's merely that the
adjustable arch can be moved
around until it hits just the right
spot for your individual foot. and
the difference it makes is obvious
when you watch the smartly styled
shoes being tried on.
I'VE don't know when it's right"
Mr.. Fikanv explained. but the min
ute the arch is adjusted to the right
spot the customer knows and tells
us" Thus the gentleman who
originally invented this operation
because his wife had trouble with her
shoes has brought new comfort to
thousands of women. It's a real
"life-saver" to most foot sufferers,
and one that seems terribly simple,
But it took Mr. Fikany to think OF it!

million other chores, without be-
ing absolutely and utterly exhaust

ion as a fretful porcupine.
The poor woman isn't to blame.
Flesh and blood can stand only so
much. An inhuman strain has been
put upon her and her nerves and
temper snap under it. Her back
aches and her feet hurt. And there
is nothing that her husband can
say to her that doesn't make her
want to start fight.
Statistics show that the number
of divorces among the working
wife couples If perfectly appalling
and no doubt it is largely due to
the fact that it is practically i'm
possible for the average woman,
with the average amount OF
strength, to be both a good business
woman and good wife.
The question of whether a girl
should keep on with her job after
marriage must be solved by the
individual couple according to their
individual needs. In a case where
only by adding the two salaries to-
gether can a boy and girl afford
marriage, it is worth the risk.
When q man falls sick or loses his
job 1t Is a fine and brave thing for
the wife to put her shoulder to the
wheel and drag the family wagon
out Of the rut.
But when man can support his
wife in even fair comfort it is far
better for the wife to devote all of
her time and talents to making a

lily upon him.
It spurs his ambition because
nothing drives us on like necessity,
and q man with wife and children
who would 60 hungry but for him
must give the best that is in him to
his job.
And it keeps a man in love with
his wife, not only because she is
pleasanter to live with, but be-
cause We love those we do things
for more than We love those who do
things for US. DOROTHY DIX.

Dear Miss DiX-My husband and
have been married six months.
Not knowing I was going to be mar
ried l had signed a contract to 90
on teaching for another year, and
am doing so. This has necessitated
our living apart, as our jobs are IN
different places. He has a fine posi-
ton as manager of the company for
which he works, and it is not neces-
sary for me to go on teaching, but
he rather likes the idea OF my work
ing and keeping up my end OF
the expenses, as it would enable us
to live in better style than we could
If we had to live on his salary. He
has always gone with people who
were well off. Now the question is:
Shall try to get job at teaching
in the city in which he lives when
my contract is out here? The thing
that bothers me is that l don't be-
lieve that I can do two jobs and do
them justice, as when 1 come home
from school I am so nervous and
irritable that my family can scarce
ly stand me. I would really like to
just stay at home and keep house.
My husband doesn't know this be-
cause I only see him on week-ends.
What shall do?
BEWLDERED WIFE.
Answer-Go domestic. Stay at
home. Let George do it. A wife's
amiability is worth more to her
husband, even in dollars and cents.
than any pay envelope she can
bring in.
This is one phase of the working
wife problem that we do not take
sufficiently into consideration. For
a woman to be a real helpmeet to
her husband means that she must
boost him up mentally and spirit
ually even more than she does
financially.
She must enable him to make the
most of whatever abilities he has,
and to do this she has to make him
happy. She must keep him in love
with her 20 that he will feel that
she is worth working for and striv-
ing for.
And she must make him . peace
ful and comfortable home, for
whether q man breaks down At 10,
or Is going strong at 10, depends
mostly upon how his wife has fed
him and taken care Of him.
Now no woman, unless she has
the strength and endurance Of a
prize-fighter, can hold down two
jobs and make successes of them
both. No woman can jump out Of
bed in the morning, rush through
cleaning up her house and getting
breakfast and getting herself and
| her husband off to work.
She can't spend the day in hard
and exhausting labor. tear home

Good Teeth
Mean Fine
Health
Mothers Should
Be Informed on
Dental Care
BY A AngeIo Pafri.

Healthy children are born with
the pearls worth a kings ransom
in their mouths. Their teeth are
the gates to health and long life
and successful effort. The child
who has sound set of teeth when
he enters adolescence has one Of
the best assets any young person
/ could possibly covet.
Teeth make nutrition possible
The best food in the world is wasted
on the child who has no teeth with
which to chew it. Sound health
is impossible for the child who has
decayed teeth in his mouth pouring
pus and poison into his bloodstream.
| Good looks and an attractive per-
sonality cannot be achieved by the
young person with dirty, decayed
and crooked teeth.
Under the conditions would you
not think that the fathers and
| mothers Of the school children,
their teachers and the dentists in
the neighborhood would combine
forces to help save such an asset
! to the children?
Hundreds of children are suffer-
ing from decayed teeth. The decay
is caused by the lack of a right
diet. Mothers ought to be taught
! to feed children so their teeth will
grow and come out in healthy fash
/ ion. We have taught the care of
/ the eyes of newborn infants so
thoroughly that children blinded
! at birth are as scarce as once they
were plentiful. Now we can set
to work to preserve teeth with the
same faith and the same insistence
and serve the people and this Nation
well.
We can make q law that insists
upon mothers having the right in
struction from the conception Of
the child. AS soon as the life be-
gins the mother starts nourishing
the child's )dy and bones. and
special attention must be paid to
the nourish aent Of the unborn
| child's teeth. That is when we
must start.
If we made it compulsory for
| pIlySlCldllS dllu uul ocS Ill Siioi S0
Of the clinics where prenatal care
is given to give mothers instruc-
ton on this matter, and to see
that the instructions are carried
| out. we would soon make progress.
1t is not because mothers do not
want to help the children have
sound teeth that they do not take
care. 1t is that they do not know,
or, even knowing, have not the
means.
Dentists can help more than
they do now by taking an interest
in preserving the health Of the
olnildren's first teeth, by caring
for them regularly in clinics and
dental classes. Every public school
In the land ought to have a dental
service In the building. That won't
hurt the dentists practice. The
more people know about taking
care of their teeth, the reason and
the benefits derived from good care,
the more patients dentists will have.
Anyway, at any cost, we must
get to work to save the children's
teeth. This Is the dentists job
and the mothers grave obligation.

then mount the other whole heart
and letter AFTER" above it.
Red candles in white holders, or
vice versa, will be effective decora-
tions, and you can hang red and
silver hearts in various strategic
spots around the party room.
A good way to keep the early ar
rivals amused until the crowd has
all gathered is to set up your dart
board, with hearts of various sizes
pasted on it. Mark different values
on these hearts-perhaps 20 points
for the smallest, for the largest
and let your guests play Cupid by
seeing how high they can score with
the darts. Or string up hearts Of
various sizes on wire across one
end Of the room. and let the crowd
throw a small rubber ball or beam
bag at them, scoring as IN the dart
game.
Two or three special games, mixed
in with the old standbys which your
gang loves. will be enough to set
the tone of the party. One mirth-
provoking stunt is proposal con-
test. Make up little programs, much
like dance programs, with spaces
for five or six names. The boys
then must fill these BY asking yarl-
Gus girls if they may have the first
COR third proposal, while the girls
also record the names OF their
scheduled partners.
When the programs are completed,
soft and sentimental music is pro-
vided by the record player or radio
and the first proposal is announced
Each boy then plants himself in
front of his partner for that num-
ber, and attempts to convince her,
in honeyed words and 2 minutes fiat,
that she should be his lawfully
welded valentine At the end of the
2 minutes, the girl gives him a
grade somewhere between 0 and 100
for his performance, and marks it
on his program.
The other proposals are run off
in order. and then the final grades
are totaled up, with prize going
to the champion proposer. Use your
own ideas for what kind of prize
would be suitable. but don't over
look the possibilities of a box OF
taffy, a plate of "baloney," cake
Of soft soap, or a dish Of mush.
For an appropriate hunt" game
make up enough hearts in various
colors and sizes to supply each
couple with one. Cut the hearts
into three pieces, two small and
one large.
Hide the smaller pieces around the
room. and place the large ones in
a dish. Each couple then picks one
of the big pieces. and starts hunt
for the pieces that will mend their
broken heart. A prize goes to the
winning couple.
Here are partner finders for games
and dancing: Make up heart-shaped
cards bearing the names of famous
pairs of lovers-Romeo and Juliet
Antony and Cleopatra, John Alden
and Priscilla, Napoleon and jose
phine, Scarlet and Rhett, etc. Give
the women's names to the boys and
the mems to the girls, and let them
match up the romantic couples.
Or give the boys cards with
romantic objects listed, and the girls
cards saying what those objects do
