Last Saturday a special meeting was held to start a neW Elk sprouf- ing horns. Bro. Judd had to leave for Juneau so the special session was held without any goat Exalted Ruler Smith can almost breath na- tural again for he has only one haIf a meeting more 10 go FIR Smith went through the whole year without missing meeting or lodge functions Next week new officers are installed and the trustees prom ised us something to eat. Better come and see what it is. With one of our oldest members at Juneau last weeks meeting passed without and parlor stories. Bro Thornquist received a present from the South: A cigar so long that if he smokes il two people will have to help him draw on fl. Bro. Sumption told us of his trip South, and at the end re- peated the same old story. Don't go South. . Don't go north" is Bro Thornquist sentiments after he returned from Skagway. Now, ask you what are we to do?
 Some Bros seem to be doing lot of fretting since their wives left. Maybe they will reduce or learn how to cook.
 Last Thursdays cara party was a dandy. Five tables Of whist were played. Mrs. Geo. G. Gunderson took. high. I'm surprised she had any score at all for she played with me twice Bro Sumption, fresh from the south took away the mems hon ors Miss Pickett who plays for low md never gets it. did it just once. think she must have been coached. And last Of all Bro Mccormack took home the owl II was a treat last night not to have so many there. I got mere to eat; two plates of very good Chile I hope that Sue teaches her old man how to serve tables. maybe he should be placed On the committee more often. Thanks goes to Mrs. Y. Fisk and Mrs Sue Fries. Bro. Stan doesn't deserve any. He wouldn't even pass the collection plate He may do bet ter in the future. I hope, Little Chet Steear failed to show up. May be the fact that is was April Fools Day-and his birthday had some thing to do with it.

 Said the report In conclusions We believe such legislation. to- gether with what has already been enacted at the present session. will correct some Of the evil practices uncovered in the course of our in= vestigation. .
 One Dissenter
 kehOe.s dissenting opinion stated that there was no foundation for the charge against Haas Of emis= conduct and fraud
 In his judgment, Kehoe said. the evidence proved il would have been advantageous for Haas to keen more complete records. that the office procedure was inclined to be slipshod
 Certainly" the Chairman said. mo proof was submitted that Mr. Haas embedded or withheld mon eys collected by him
 Kehoe said the evidence did sus- tain the charge that Walker used the facilities of the office in an illegal manner 10 further his pol itical interests"
 Kehoe urged a thorough investi- gation of all Territorial offices to make available information as to the general degree of administrative efficiency for the purpose of secur- ing any possible data for future action by the Legislature.

GIRL SCOUT NOTES
By Ruby Pickett

Promise.
 On my honor I will try:
 To do my duty to God and my
 country.
 To help other people at all
 times.
 To obey the Girl Scout laws.
 At our regular meeting on Mon day evening at the school house Miss Pickett had a very pleasant surprise for us. MT. Fred Hanford had given Miss Pickett a gift Of money for the Girl Scouts to spend whichever way We wanted to. We decided to send for Girl Scout hand books for the girls who do not have them and some articles of Girl Scout equipment for those who have the handbooks. We wish to take this opportunity to thank Mr. Han ford for this much appreciated gift.
 We played some question games and had a lunch. At our next meet ing We are going to start working on our Arts and Craft tests by do- ing some wood carving.

III Temper
Will Mar
Beauty
BY HELEN FoLLETT

THIS Is the time when the
woman who kicks up a fuss over
trifles should be put in her place.
The country has serious matters
on its mind. stern work 10 do, a
big job that must be finished
some day. And self-indulgence
can't be overlooked as it once
was. Yet, no doubt we shall
always have with us the indi-
vidual who lacks self-control.
Well, she is her own worst
enemy. She ages early. gets
premature wrinkles, sometimes
her husband and children run
away from home.
Even little RACES are harm
full to the physical being, espe-
cially the nervous system. There
are women whQ get steamed up
over things of no Importance.
The upsetting Of a cup of cof-
fee, a grocery order that hasn't
been delivered on time. a run in
stocking, a broken fingernail,
the wrong telephone number,
what the woman next door has
TO say. Every day will bring a
certain number of irritations.
Unpleasant emotions dig in
frownS, which are not easily
erased. They use up energy and
produce fatigue. Fatigue means
that the digestive organs slow
up and troubles ensue. Unless
the body is properly nourished
the skin loses coloring, goes yell
low or grey.
The effect upon the figure is
deplorahle. Spirit is lacking so
the erect carriage disappears.
Small troubles should be mini
mixed. yet many women love TO
magnify them. portray them
selves as martyrs. They fall into
the habit Of whining.
A whining woman is dis
gushing person, though we must
say that whining men are worse.
The brave woman who carries
on remains youthful, has few
beauty troubles. She keeps the
house that is herself in order.
She reaps a rich reward for
being courageous. She slaves
off the lines of time. has firm
step. mental poise. and shows
the world a countenance that is
alight with cheerfulnesS. More
glory to her,

DECORATING THE Amer
lean home this spring is going
10 be done with a difference. II
you can't get that beautiful
metallic paper on which you
have set your heart, II will be
because Uncle Sam needs its
metallic content.
With the help OF the Office
of War Information and the War
Production Board. lets size up
the decorating picture as il
exists.
Quick Drying Out
II appears that wallpaper,
floor sanding and polishing ma
chimes. brushes, varnish. paint
and containers for same. all
come in conflict at some point
with war production.
The paint, enamel or varniSh
that the housewife used TO whisk
over tables and chairs in the
morning with the sure knowl-
edge that il would be bone dry
by the afternoon, is out for the
duration so far as civilian use
is concerned.
Tung oil and synthetic resins
which give protective coatingS
their quick-drying properties are
available only for war purposes
Less Glossy Now
Conservation of oils may make
new exterior paints for house,
hold use less glossy However,
the exterior paints have new
advantage they should stay
clean longer.
The dry powder-type water
paints are being produced in
normal quantities. but for metal
lie paints the picture is different.
Only a limited amount of alu-
minum paint now reaches the
paint dealer and that is expected
TO vanish soon, as have bronze
pigments. Painting the radiator
must wait until after victory.
Spare the Brushes
III you are an enthusiastic
household painter, coddle those
paint brushes.
Clean brushes thoroughly with
turpentine or a standard brush
cleaner directly after using. and
suspend them in a jar containing
an equal mixture of tuIpentine
and linseed oil.
The best brushes have always
been made of Chinese hog bris-
ties, and all the bristles of this
type that can be imported under
present shipping difficulties are
earmarked for essential military
or industrial purposes.
The paint and varnish brushes
