These vagaries of adolescent
growth often lead us astray. The
teacher and the parent are de-
lighted at the evidence of a gift
in this child, grief-stricken at the
evil shown in this other one. Maybe
both signs are deceptive.
Flashes of growth come and 60.
Some of them stay on TO become
the ground work Of character and
accomplishment, some of them fade
as they came, but every demonstra =
ton of feeling and interest is evil
dence Of growth and change One
never knows.so one, feels his way.
We AheipS q child 10 write verse
when he Indicates the mood and the
desire is upon him; We help him to
paint, 10 model, to carve, to create
in whatever medium he chooses.
We make use of every evidence of
coming power we can see in order
to strengthen him for the real thing
that is to come.

boy who became policeman, and
a good one. These children may
do just one piece, make just one
sally into a field of activity, before
turning to another. That is the
way Of their growth. They must
have the chance to use the urge,
direct the energy, so that its power
may be stored for the next squirt
of growth.

I would like to offer my advice on
keeping a dog we'll fed at a reason
able price and few points. I buy,
twice a week, Z pound hogs liver
and add all the vegetable peelings
from sever al meals, such as carrot
peelings, potatoe Feelings, celery
tops, an onion or two, scraps of
green pepper, even the roots and
stems of spinach or kale. Cook it
up like a stew and keep it in ice
box.
When I feed him I add a slice
Of bread to his share and make it
go even further by adding some dry
dog food when the liver is used up.
He seems to love it and looks fine.
He gets a dish of corn flakes with
milk for breakfast Dogs won't
fight and bite if they are fed.

Alaska Meat Prohibition
 Modified

Apropos the numerous reports concerning the imminence of ra- tioning in the Territory the Alaska Office of Price Administration, Mill dred R. Hermann, Director, this week issued the following state ment:
 Tentative arrangements have just been made to permit shipments of meat to Alaska outside the quotas recently set by the War Food Ad- ministration. Information from Washington indicates that these ar engagements, while eXempting Alas ka from the original quotas, pro- vide for controls to prevent exees- sive shipments. This news is of par ticular importance 10 the welfare of the freezeup sections which buy most of this meat in the summer.
 "The quotas provided that for the three months ending September 30, 1943. the limit of meat import attons was to be 65 per cent of the beef and veal shipped in the same period of 1941, so per cent of the lamb and mutton, and 85 per cent of the pork. The 1941 base period was manifestly inappropriate for Alaska because of the considerable increases in population since that year and was therefore so repre- sented to Washington by the Alaska Office of Price Administration.
 There is of course a national meat shortage and in order to sup ply Lend Lease and military re- quirements, civilian consumption has had to be cut Alaska certainly should have no cause for complaint if she finds her supply under mod crate controls. She has been affect ed by food shortages far less than any other place under the American flag. Succulent roasts and juicy

INTERNAL REVENUE EXPLAINS DELAY IN
 RETURN OF CHECKS

TACOMA - Deposit of m y cheeks rendered in payment of June 15 tax installments has been de- layed due to lack of sufficient iden- tifieation for crediting remittances to proper accounts, according to Clark Squire, Collector of Internal Revenue. Numerous inquiries as to why checks did not appear on June bank statements, he said have been received from taxpayers.
 Identification of a large number of accounts in the Tacoma office has been slowed, due to the tremendous volume of payments and the fact that thousands of taxpayers mailed remittances without attaching them to their tax statements. The office, Squire declared, is making every effort to deposit checks so they will appear on July bank statements but it was likely some remittances will not clear until after August l.
 The Collector said he was making this explanation so that persons whose cheeks do not appear on their statements at the end of July will understand the situation and avoid writing the office.

Sorry. We forgot to warn you but today Is Friday the 18th; one of those bugaboo days, as superstition has 1t.
 Only persons we have heard of who were enjoying bad luck were the Axis leaders. Interpretations Allied fliers laid some eggs on Rome, Berlin and way points with remarkable success. Perhaps Propa- ganda Minister Goebbels will blame it on the calendar.
 It was good luck day for Taxi Owner Jay Byrd. It was his birth day-32nd; said he had his fingers crossed. but they didn't seem to bother him any when he came in to help get out Alaskas Oldest Con- tinuously Published Newspaper.
 Happy returns to Jay and those Allied fliers.

OPA CHANGES FISH
 PRICES IN NEW RULE

SAN FRANCISCO-The OPA has informed the fishing industry it has revised price ceilings on frozen fish and seafoods at processor and wholesaler and distributor levels The new schedule will be issued soon with new amendments prohib- lt1ng fishermen ana primary whole salers, with some exceptions, from selling at higher prices than those allowed fishermen or wholesalers themselves to "prevent an invasion of established ceiling prices through the use of agents"
 The OPA also said frozen fish processors' and wholesalers ceil- lngs will probably involve cents per pound prices. Heretofore. whole salers' ceilings have been computed on fixed percentage markup bas- Is. The OPA also allowed the addi- ton of transportatIon costs to ceil- lngs when the distributor ships his -fish to distant warehouse.

FAMILY TO MAKE NEW
 HOME IN WRANGELL

A new arrival in Wrangell this week, who expects to establish her family home in this community, is Mrs. Charles Randrup who arrived from Skagway. Mir and Mrs. Rand Iup have been in the Territory since 194O, having lived at Nome, An chorage, Cordova ana Skagway.
 At Skagway Mrs. Randrup said, we heard so much about Wrangell from peopIe who have lived here that we edcided to come here and get established in business and make it our home" MT. Rand rup is still in Skagway, engaged in war work, but expects to finish his contract in a montn or six weeks when he will join his wife here. He is plumber by trade.
 The Randrups have several grown children. One son, Jerry, a Pharma- cist's Mate with the Navy, recent ly returned to the United States from action in the soiomons. He was through all the first engagements and did his part in helping the Marines occupy Guadalcanal. He has been recuperat1ng from an at tack of malaria in a hospital in New York.
 As soon as he is we'll " his mother said, T am going to have him come up here. I know he would like it and 1 think the climate would be good for nqm. My hus- band and I have great faith in the future of Alaska"
 Mrs. Randrup has established her first home in Wrangell in the Nol- an apartments.

PROTECT YOUR CONSCIENCE

Some time ago it was found nee essary to remove certain magnetic apparatus from Greenwich Observa- tory, into a quiet village in Surrey because new electrical power sta tions and the vibration of traffic in that neighborhood disturbed the instruments and deflected them from truthful recordings. The Christians conscience, like those sensitive instruments, has to be guarded. If We allow traffic of wrong thoughts through our minds, the conscience may pc spoiled and cease to function alright. A good conscience is necessary for healthy Christian life.

steaks still grace the average table in Alaska. though elsewhere, in many places, these foods have not been seen for months.
 Mrs. Hermann also pointed out that the. wire of protest sent by the Seattle Chamber of Commerce to the national OPA office apparently was directed not at Order NO. 61 but against Order No. 70 limiting the amount of sugar available to com mercial users, thereby indirectly af- fecting the supply of candy avail able to Alaska, and certain other commodities. We did not protest this Order" Mrs. Hermann stated, because we felt that candy was a luxury commodity and curtailment of the supply for Alaska would not seriously affect the health and well being of the people. At the present time We have no reason to believe there are any other shortages in prospect.
 T am confident when they have time to think about the matter, AL askans will remember that they too, are Americans and capable of tightening up their belts as the rest of the country has been doing for months. In the meantime, scare editorials and headlines to the con- trary, we do not contemplate ra- tioning except as a last resort. That has always been our assurance to Alaska and it still is
