Anchorage has an envable record for giving
proper support to worthy 1t has been rare
occasion in the history of the city that the citizens
have failed to take the most worthy action. This
applies to elections to civic movements to charitable
endeavors and most recently to the effort
When the call came for the purchase of bonds,
an aggressive and efficient committee organized
to handle the program. Captains and workers
Quoted systematic canvass of prospective pur-
chasers. The citizenry quietly acceded to the re-
quests of the nation for financial help Bond sales
were placed on business basis
responded again.
When Postmaster Brown first announced the
failure of bond sales to reach the quota reason
could be suggested There was an assumption that
Christmas and the heavy expenditures that accom-
pany the Yule season, might be cutting into the
funds that had been going into bonds.
Colonel Ohlson's discovery that the city was
not being credited with sales rghtfully belonging
her gives a concrete reason for the failure. 1t is
expected that the bookkeeping system will be cor
rected that future sales will be tailed in favor
OF the city where they belong.
Anchorage will always be outstanding because of
the active cooperation of the workers who gave of
their time and effort in lining up the pledges the
business men who have made it possible for the
powers of advertising to be thrown behind the drive
and the warm response of the patriotic citizens who
have made bond purchases part of their budgets

THE CHILD DOESN'T WANT
 TO DO WRONG

|
 Altogether too many letters run something likt this:
 "What can be done to break a child of the bed-wetting habit? The child is seven years old and no amount of shame or punishment seems to do any good"
 Such a letter makes me wish I could give the parent or guardian of the unhappy child nice confi- dential, strictly private kick in the pants.
 Censure, shame or punishment of a child for wetting the bed is as futile as it is wicked. No child will fully does so. Neither is 1t an indi- cation of any kind of inferiority in the makeup or mentality or dispo- sition of the child.
 It is more or less normal for children to continue this infantile habit, at least at times, up to the age of three years. That is, there is nothing to be concerned about if a child occasionally does so up to that age.
 Instead of the despicable prac- tice of humiliating the child by speaking of the matter in the pres ence of other persons, as ignorant or vicious parents or guardians sometimes do, keep 1t secret be. tween you and the child, as far as possible, and share sincerely the child's natural regret when the acci- dent happens and pleasure when 1t doesn't. Thus you gain the child's confidence and cooperation in a systematic plan or schedule which will correct the habit-this is de- scribed in the pamphlet on Bed- wetting.
 Generally bed-wetting is a mani- festation of neuro-muscular fatigue or irritability and hence an indica- ton of calcium deficiency. To this end two items in the diet described in the pamphlet are especially in- portant-eggs or egg yolk and cheese. When I say cheese I mean natural cheese, undoctored cheese. genuine cheese. ral cheese, and not these blankety-blank connections made by grinding up little cheese of any kind available with dried milk, milk sugar, dab of butter or whatever odds and ends happen to be cheap enough.

Girl He Left IS Behind Him !!
By MRS. MAURICE T. MOORE Chairman, National WOn1en's
 C0vn1mitkee TISn

New York, June 9-To make a trip from coast to coast in 1942 is to see American at war--the great naval stations on the Atlantic, the Pacific and the Gulf of Mexico, the huge army encampments scattered from Cape Code to California, the flying fields, the shipyards, the mu- niticn factories, the bomber and fighter assembly llnes-all teeming with intense and determined activ- ity.
 America has gone to war with planes and tanks, with jeeps and guns and precision instruments. But above all, America has gone to war with millions of its finest and fitteSt in the uniforms of soldier, sailor, marine and coast guard. America has gone to war with still more-millions of men and women in overralls producing the tools of war.
 They Must Get Out of the Rut
 Soldier, sailor, munitions worker all are working and fighting and training at top speed, and under such regimentation that, in their hours of duty, they are doubly in need of thorough relaxation and recreation. When a soldier or sailor is of duty he wants to get away from regimentation. He goes as fast as he can to the nearest village. Be 1t in the Jersey flats or the Arizona desert. this village boasts a diner, a couple of honky-tonks, and noth- ing more-not even a movie.
 But in hundreds of such villages there is now 8 USO clubhouse, which the boys know belongs to them. It belongs to them not be- cause the Army and Navy have or- dered it, but because their own folks back home have provided it. And pinch-hitting for the folks back home are the mothers serving coffee and doughnuts, sewing on the proud new chevron, or just listening to the saga of how it was earned.
 Girl Volunteers On the Job
 Pinch-hitting for the girls back home are thousands of other girls who come faithfully night after night to dance-each with her badge identifying her as a UEO Liberty Belle" or "Chevronette" or "Dura- ton Damsel." Pinch-hitting also are nearby womenis clubs and local chapters of national organizations refreshments, orchestrag teachers for hobbies.

 The humble scrubbing brush which smart women used for their elbows is an important aid to stock. ingless leg appeal. Short dresses won't hide your knees at all-so keep 'em attractively scrubbed. IT'S DAILY USE
 IS BENEFICIAL
 One smart woman l know scrubs elbows and knees daily, in this be- ginning -of-summer season, and once week she soalEs them in Q "long" bath. She places nall, bath and complexion brushes, as well as Q rough face cloth, in little tray which fits across the tub.
 First, she scrubs her face. Then, leaning forward, she turns on the faucet and gets some clear water for rinsing, dries her face carefully end covers 1t with night cream. This stays on while she completes her leisurely bath.
 She uses the 1ong-handled bath brush to scrub her elbows (and also her back, shoulders) and her knees and feet. Her nail brush removes grime from nails as nothing else will. Then she uses a small piece of pumice to discourage callouses on her heels, her soles, her fingers.
 In addition to the daily scrub. bing-plenty of studs, remember and the weekly soaking and scrub ping, it would be 8 good idea to cream elbows and knees regularly. Use hand cream. If the skin is particularly rough, apply your reg ular softening cream several nights a week. Foundation film and face powder improve their appearance, of course, and lemon juice bleaches them nicely.

Champion Plays for Extra Tricks
BY WILLIAM E. MCKINNEY
 America's Card Authority

Tn tournament play it is not enough just to make your contract you must play for every possible trick Tn today's hand, for example, if Harry Fishbein, this years winner of the Masters Individual, was play ing 1t at rubber bridge, he would simply discard a spade on the third diamond lead, forcing East to ruff. Then he would have no other losing trick.
 But Pishbein figured he must try for five-odd, and ruffed the third diamond with the ace of traimps. It is true he must now find the trumps split two-two or the spade finesse 8 winner. If both break wrong the contract is lost. But Fishbein reasoned that the spade finesse must be a winner, as West. with the top diamonds plus the king of spades, would have been

 Mama is little surprised that Papa even noticed 1t. Men aren't very good about showing pleasure at their wives achievements.
 That is probably one reason why so mary women don't realize how much pride men take in having their wives do really worthwhile things
 Because he is proud of her work, Mama is getting twice the amount of satisfaction out of doing 1t that she would find if he paid no attention or treated 1t as though it unimportant. NEEDED: MORE PROUD HUSBANDS
 If there were more husbands like Papa who showed pride in their wives accomplishing things on their own, there would be fewer women-even in peacetime-wastirg their lives playing bridge, gossip ing, and trying to out-entertain each other.
 So, give Mama a hand, men, when she does some- thing that makes you proud of her It doesn't give her any encouragement you're only secretly proud
