4 huge herd of fur seal. valued al around two million dollars. is cavorting around the Pribilof Is- lands for the first time in many years without human attendance What's to become Of them nobody knows. the seals probably aren't worrying much about it. But the reason they are unattended Is that the native residents Of the Pribilofs have been evacuated to Southeast Alaska following the Dutch Harbor bombing and Jap landings on the Aleutians. Just what the score is in the Aleutians is a military sec ret, although it is known that the |. :. Forces. now supported by Canadian air units. have given an excellent account of themselves and many a Nip has joined his ances- tors.
 Whites from Dutch Harbor and Cold Harbor were evacuated Out side after the bombing while the Aleuts from the Pribilofs. Atka and other islands Of the Aleutian chain were moved down to Southeast Al aska where for them. accustomed 10 Arctic regions, the heat is ter rife. Word from their camps says the first complaint was "too hot"
 The evacuees are being taken care Of by the Indian Office and Fisheries Division of the Fish and Wildlife Service. There are around 500 of them. 4 large amount of clothing and other supplies was purchased in Wrangeu last Sunday 10 help re-outfit the new Southeast Alaska residents. Many had come from their homes with virtually nothing except enough clothing to cover their nakedness. One woman had only house dress on. 4 service man took pity on her and provided pair of shoes. Others were in equally bad circumstances. while some who had more time were able to bring some of their household equipment. There were some electric washing machines, radios, etc, a. mong their effects. Unfortunately there was no power for hooking up their equipment at their new South east Alaska homes.
 Navy is credited with doing a sweet job on the Aleutian-Pribiloi evacuation. Some day the story

ARE YOU STILL USING OLD TIRES FOR BOAT BUMPERS :?

Elsewhere in today's paper you will find a proclamation from Gov. Gruening extending the campaign for scrap rubber 10 the close of Sat urday. July Il. The reason is that the drive for scrap rubber has been a miserable failure not alone in Alaska bur throughout the nation. Only a very small percentage of the amount anticipated in the drive was turned in l. is hoped by extending the campaign that Americans will rally to this yitally important cause and turn in to the govern meut every ounce of rubber avail able.
 Much of the success of the war depends on rubber. It is a cold, un- pleasant fact that the enemy has control of 94 per cent of the world g former supply. The other six per cent is all Uncle Sam and our Allies have to draw upon; not much to win a war Therefore. scrap rubber must be converted into reuse as quickly as possible. Planes need tires. tanks need tires, guns, naval equipment and scores of other things vital to the war effort need rubber It must be obtained NOW
 Those old tires you are using for bumpers on your boat should go in to this effort. You used rope for bumpers long before. you used old rubber tires. Your old rubber boots. shoe packs. rain coats, slickers and other articles of rubber all are needed right now to bolster the vanishing rubber supply,
 Turn them in either at Vans Garage or at either of the oil comp any plants. As you know, the Pres ident has designated the oil comp anies as collection agencies for this used rubber.
 4 price of one cent a pound is paid if asked for, but, whether or not you care about the few cents you might collect for scrap rubber, turn it in. Your effort may mean another dead Jap and victory just a little sooner. It may not be quite as satisfying to toss an old tire into the scrap pile as it would be to toss hand grenade into a bunch of Nips. but, nevertheless, YOUR gathering up of that scrap rubber will mean that lot of little yellow men will be going to their anees

 A bit of real American spirit is reflected. too. in the attitude of the government teaching staff among the Aleuts The entire staff came along to the Southeast with their people and are staying with them to help establish the new homes. Schools will be erected and you'll find the teachers right on the job. carrying on their activities as us- ual under whatever the conditions may permit.
 From the eyaeuees come graphic tales Of bravery and daring dur ing those hectic days in the Aleut- ians when the Jap made his bid One told of a Yankee reconnaissance plane pilot spotting a Jap sub some distance off che beach and having no weapons to deal with the situa- ton, flew 10 his field. tied some depth bombs on his plane. went back out and blasted the enemy sub out of the water.

 This short-jacket is fashion set up for dinner time formalities Many of them glitter as a black jersey front-full skirt and rather Victorian jacket with nipped waist and rounded-hip peplum, two front seams of the jacket being edged with jet-studded black lace as dahlia-purple wool crepe with cerise scarf, temptation to a matching mad hat.
 But more are, rather, ladylike as Baria Krum's utterly elegant black wool with straight skirt and little round collar and pocket flaps tdimmed with black chenille.

BREATHING EXERCISES WILL IMPROVE VOICE

So if you want a pleasing voice, begin with breathing exercises. Check your breathing habits. Press palms against your ribs, un- der arms, and take breath. Feel your sides pressing against palms? That's correct! If you do not feel your chest expanding sideways as you inhale, try 1t in reverse. With hands on ribs, press in and exhale, deeply, and push ribs in. Then, inhale and let the chest expand sideways. Repeat this dozen times daily. In a short time you'll breathe without giving it thought.
 Diction is important, too. Ask yourself whether you slur your words and rattle on. If you do, notice the irritating effect of the habit. And try to correct it. consciously, first. With practice, clear pleasant speech will come naturally, too.
 One easy step in voice-training is to read aloud to yourself for ten to thirty minutes day. One seasons work on your voice may get you the job or the date you have been longing for.

is more important than you might think
 If you write long gloomy, sor- roWful letters, you are spreading pessimism all over the country.
 Some folks-and often they are women-Seem to think that let ter should relate every gloomy item the writer knows, So it isn't at all unusual for wife whose husband is in the Army to get letter from some friend or relative that is filled with such items as:
 GLOOMY NEWS
 BREEDS GLOOM
 T guess you've heard that the Jones boy who was training to be a flyer was killed in an airplane crash He is an only child, you | know.
 Little Doris Brown, whose hus- band is in Australia is going to have baby. Poor child, I feel sorry for her.
 And did you know that Jim Smith has been reported missing? HID pOOl Wl4C VIII lItifC bO LII HE up those children all by herself"
 That's no exaggeration. Plenty of people Write letters just like that-and don't even suspect what they are doing to the morale of their friends and relatives.
 Life is pretty hard for most fam flies these days. Most of them have real worries of their own So let's not use the mails to put them in a worse frame of mind. There's good news as well as bad all around us Women whose hus- bands are at their sides are still having babies. Why not mention those? Young men are getting pro- motions as well as being killed. Why not pass on that kind of news?

Gl0rUying Yourself
NEA Service Staff Writer
By AMcia Hart

Some of the top stars of stage and screen have faces so homely well, homely enough to be funny,
 It takes a sense of humor, and a rare one, to make your fortune out of that sort of face. And either you're born funny or you take years to acquire a quick sense Of comedy even a sense of hu- nor. However, there is one qual- ity the comediennes have that any woman can acquire pretty quick ly. That's a charming voice.
 A girl can speak pleasantly even though her natural pitch is high. Her tone must be full. In order to get that, she needs to make her breathing apparatus work properly. That is what produces the full tone.
