Your Psychologist
By DIR. ". II. Young

The menopause is a trying time
of life for most women. At the
change of life women suffer ner-
vousness in carrying degrees. To
some it means disaster. while 9TH
ers seem to meet this change calm
ly. For most women there are
many disturbing symptoms. Hot
flashes, headaches and backaches,
digestive trouble, sleeplessness. and
a general feeling Of irritability.
The menopause is not the cause
of these symptoms. but it merely
stirs the nerves to excessive action.
The entire sympathetic nervous
system is stimulated beyond nor
NAL. 1t brings out any latent
nervous trouble which may have
remained in the background for
years.
These symptoms can be elimi-
mated. They are not a natural re-
suit of menopause. All such cases
may be released from such terri
flying feelings under proper treat
ment. Phone MA. 4625, DR.. Young

Theater Fashions

II there were any sartorial signs
of spring at the opening of Gath
crime Was Great" at the National
Theater, they were manifest in the
headgear of the distaff side Of the
audience.
Many a theatergoer blossomed
forth in fluff and flowers. One
pretty young brunette topped her
sleek polished pageboy with a hat
that was nothing more than cluster
of yarishaded pink carnations-all
tied together with a bit of a net bow
and very effective with a low
necked navy-blue dress. Another
smart woman set of her dark the
ater garb with small pillbox of ecru
net which swirled into a whoosh
both fore and aft-the former re-
sulting in a complete lack of visibil-
ity. Two shades OF net-violet and
fuchsia-were twisted and blended
to make another small chapeau
headlighted by one huge rose, this
topping a violet dress.

wearable. Then make a list Of what
you need. Try buying two-piecers
for their interchangeability. Wheth-
er the child is 8 or 13, boy or girl, the
best buys are usually two-piece--
that Is, suits. skirts and blouses, two
piece jerseys and two-piece dresses
In other words, couple Of smart
skirts probably one a plaid-would
make o much better working basis
for your 8-year -old's wardrobe than
the same number OF one-piece
dresses which are not convertible.
Since most children look best In
the classics, the fashion changes
from year to year are minor-and
more minor than ever this year OF
war. Your 2-to-6 boy will still want
q box coat, belted in back-to look
as much as possible like Daddy,s-
but this spring one of the cutest Of
the coyerts has silver buttons and
sports an emblem on the sleeve.
We've never understood the hold
that sailors have on the little ones,
but even those whose fathers are in
the Army and Marines are happiest
when they're in navy blue regula-
tions and can salute the Gobs man
to man. This, We may add, applies
to the distaff side who salute Wave
to Wave no doubt. This same In
fluence is reflected in little boys
wash suits-of which we saw an eye
opening collection in one OF our IA
vorite haunts.
We have been delighted to note
that red has died out in most chill
dren's clothes-and has been sup
planted by pretty cherry red, or,
even newer-shrimp shade. And
we're all but shouting about the
handsome new gray fashions for the
younger sets. The new gray flannel
and tweed coats are so smart-and
SO seEwiceable, although we must
admit definite preference for gray
on any age. Aping their mothers
small girls coats have taken to back
belts-a very good line on the slim
ones, not too good on the tummied
crowd. And did we mention that
the Tyrolean influence-for obvious
reasons-is not with us this year?
We meant to.

Dear Readers:

The tremendous number of
letters now being sent in to the
column has made US fall far
behind schedule in getting them
into print. I appreciate your
interest and your cooperation,
and am delighted that you like
the RICH, also that you find 1t
helpful.
However, its aid will be of less
value If too much time has to
elapse between the publishing
of requests and answers. You
can help to correct this situa-
ton by making your letters as
short as you possibly can. This
will not only save space in the
paper, but will greatly facilitate
the job of editing and typing
the letters each day.
Again my thanks to you for
making the RICH such a sue
cess!

violets worn over one eye; again as
sorted field flowers made a coronet

was a single outsize rose secured to

FISHERIES MEN
 WILL ADDRESS UNION MEETING

Officials of the Fish and Wildlife Service are to address members of the United Trollers of Alaska. Local 56, at their regular monthly union meeting this evening in the Miners Union Hall, it was announced today.
 Speaking to the trollers will be J. Steele Culbertson, Fisheries Manage ment Supervisor of the Fish and Wildlife Service, and Clay Scudder, Fisheries Agent for the Juneau area. They will explain procedures proposed for trollers' reporting in- formation regarding their catches. The information so secured is to be used for preparing further studies on which to base management regula- tions for tolling areas. The trollers are asked to enter their catches in bulk on forms provided and to report them to the Fisheries Division at the end of the season.
 The cooperation of the trollers is asked that better understanding may be reached of problems common to both fishermen and fishery man. agement, leading toward improve ments in the conservation program in order to continue king and silver salmon runs in productive state.
 Individual catch records are not to to be disclosed, but will be compiled for analysis and study, with the compiled results published and made available for information of fisher men. The form provided asks in- formation as to where catches are sold, date of delivery, the area troll ed and amount of fish sold per var iety-king salmon, silver salmon and halibut-giving both the number of fish and the number of pounds of each variety sold.
