Here's How
 Miners May
 Go To Work

United States Employment Ser vice offices throughout Alaska slipped into high gear as officials began the task of carrying out instructions of the War ManpoW CT Commission to shift workers from closing mines into work more closely connected with the war effort.
 Outside of few small operat- DTS, and the Alaska Juneau Gold Mining Comupany in Juneau which has a P-56 preference rat ing granted by the War Produc- ion Bard, practically all mines in the Territory are included.
 Art Hedges, Acting Director of the U. S. Employment Service office in Juneau, announced that all mines hit by the order are directed to take immediate steps to shut down.

How To Re-Hire

The U. s. Employment Service is handling all arrangements for the unemployment of miners. Hedges said that no employer may hire anyone dis-employed under the WING d rective unless this dis-employed person is refer red by the employment office. In turn, he stated, the employment office is instructed to refer such Unemployed persons to non-fer- rous metal mining, milling, smelt ing and refining activities.
 If no non-ferrous jobs exist, these workers will then be re- ferred to the essential defense ac tivities.
 Effective Ocober ', Chairman Paul V. McNutt's WING direcive stated:
 No employer shall hire in. or hire for work in, Alaska, or any state west of the Mississippi River, any person who on or af- ter October ' has ceased to be employed as production or maintenance worker in connec- ton with gold mining, except upon referral of such worker to such employer by the United States Employment Service"

"My father is dead and I dare
not brighten my mother with this,
but am sick with terror for fear
he will keep his word. What can
I do? / am going ahead with we'd
ding plans and bridesmaids dresses,
but I am in a cold sweat when
wake up at night, and any little
sound makes my heart stop. Do you
think he will dare do it? I cannot
warn the police because then there
would be publicity; and if he knew
he was being watched, or was
warned, he might grow desperate.
HE is quite changed from what
he was, or not so much changed as
worse than he was; angrier and
harder. He gripped my hands and
said to me, I would kill you now.
There's no moment when I couldn't
kill you. But I believe you'll come
back to me, and I'll wait until I'm
sure you are embarrassing me.
The letter ends with a wild ap-
peal: shall she run away? Shall
she hide? Shall she tell Jack of
her danger? What shall she do?
Advised to Move.
My answer went to her by airmail
days ago, and today she writes me
gratefully that she is following my
advice and that she hears that Matt
has left town.
advised her to move, with her
mother, to the aunt's home where
her mother was going to move any,
way, after the wedding, and by all
means to notify the police. The
chances are that Mats threats
were only threats, only the last
despairing gesture of man who
sees his girl won by a better man.
But even so it is just as well not
to risk anything.
The aunt's family consists, be-
side herself, Of two bachelor sons;
much harder group to scare than
are two lone women. And more than
that the police instantly checked on
Matt and temporarily placed q
guard inconspicuously in the neigh
borhood of the apartment house.
So the probability is that Angela in
a few weeks will feel herself safe
in her new home with husband to
protect her.
But when it has involved intima-
cies, the exchanging of passionate
notes signed ''your adoring hus-
band" "your crazy little loving
wife," the buying Of groceries and
cooking them in tiny cabin, and
especially when the girl has given
the man the supreme proof of her
love and trust, then there is bond
that isn't easily broken.
We hear good deal in these days,
about the unimportance of a wom-
ans honor. "She doesn't harm any,
one but herself" the girls argue,
"and it's nobody's business but her
ownl"
And when, as often happens, her
whole family pays, or her innocent
child pays, the world is still pretty
hard in it's judgment of her. 1t rath-
er amuses me, in view of the mod
ern attitude, to see that play after
play and novel after novel still harps
on that old theme: is she straight
or is she a woman with a past?"
Three recent Broadway successes
would have had no plot at all if
they had not been able to fall back
upon the age-old law that there are
certain sins for which the woman
pays. And like death and taxes.

Pershing Had but Gentle
Rebuke for Doughboy

From time to time there have
been complaints about lack of dis
cipline in the u. S. army. It is
true that the American soldier al
ways has been somewhat diff
cult" but he is a good, coura-
geous fighter-and it sometimes
pays best not to be too regimental.
This leads up to story of one
dark night in France during the
last war when a doughboy stopped
an officer and asked for a ciga-
rette. AS he lit up, he recognized
the officer, and gasped: General
Pershing!"
The general smiled grimly.
"Say, son, you took an awful
chance" he said. 81 might have
been a second lieutenant"

By KATHLEEN NORRIS
tBen syndicate-wNU Service,

NILS is the story OF Angela,
who is now %, and wants
= to be married this spring
TO the man who has won her
heart-and not only her heart,
but her mind and soul. He is
nine years older than she, an
army doctor stationed at one of
our midwestern posts. 1t would
be a fine marriage for Angela,
for he could give her a great
deal in comfort and position
that her earlier life has not had.
But there's a cloud. The cloud is
an old friend named Matt, who was
Angela's boy friend when she was
in high school.
when I was II and Matt two
years older thought there was no
body like him." her letter says. eve
were really crazy about each other.
Matt is big powerful fellow who
seemed much older than he was,
and there was not a girl in school
who would not have been thrilled to
have him in love with her.
HE talked then about getting
married, but my mother told me
that at our ages no affair could be
serious.
Went to Mats Cottage.
Matt and his brother had little
two-room cottage on the college
grounds, and when his brother was
away I used to go there sometimes;
we would buy provisions at the
Cash-and-Carry,' cook ourselves lit
tie dinners and have great fun. I
was living part of the time at home
in town seven miles away and part
of the time with my aunt in town,
so that I could manage a good deal
Of spare time without being ques-
toned.
Eventually, on perhaps six or
seven occasions stayed overnight
there; was never happy about this.
l knew it was not right, and i was
always afraid his brother would re-
turn Unexpectedly and lose his re-
spect for me.
"That June Matt left college in his
junior year and went to a lumber
mill to make enough money to get
married.
"Our correspondence languished;
Matt was sent to Central America;
years went by. I got my teachers
degree and enjoyed my work, and
then last year / met Jack. We have
all our plans made for spring we'd
ding. I love Jack Economically, idi-
otically, but I hope sensibly, too; I
can imagine no life more gloriously
satisfying than that of being my
Captains wife.
"But the problem is that Matt
has returned to town, and whether
his feeling for me died out or not
it is at the blazing point now. He
insists that I am promised to him,
and that we never ended that en-
gagement and that I cannot in honor
marry Jack.
A Violent Type.
''This would be merely silly if it
were not that he is an angry and
violent type. His brother told me
once that their father killed himself
and Mats mother in a jealous rage.
/ sent for Matt and we had ter
rible interview. He threatened to
disclose everything to Jack, who has
returned to his post. I could tell
him truly that Jack knew of it, and
had said that my foolishness as a
little girl would not affect his love
and respect for me today.
"Then Matt swore that l would
never live to be Jacks wife, that
had given myself to him, and be-
longed to him body and soul, and
that if he could not have me here
he would have me in eternity.
