Give Hair Lift
With New Part
BY ALICIA HART
NEA Staff Writer

Hair-raising trick that will put
a pompadour puff into a flat-top,
which you don't want to cling to
your head like a seals is to part
your Golf on the wrong" side when
you set it. When you dress your
hair, turn and part on the opposite
side. and there you are with a boun-
cy lift.
Actress and model jeanne Jaap
tells of other ingenious ideas she
hit upon during her recent tour
as a USO entertainer in New Gui-
nea. To keep hair fragrant and re-
store fluff between deferred sham
poos-a trick every girl needs to
have up her sleeve-Joanne busted
sachet powder into the bristles of
her brush and stroked out every
thing but clinging fragrance.
Needing to travel light-some-
thing else 70 remember when you
have TO go places with hardly more
than a handbag for luggage-Joanne
carried shampoo powder in flat en-
velope packets. She says she made
these do glamOr duty before per-
forming yeoman service as soap by
placing them where they would cast
their pervasive lavender scent among
her dudS.

American People
Too Forsivins
For Own Good
BY RUTH MILLETT

The short news item that told
about man being fined $40 by a
six-man jury for being cruel TO a
rat, raises the question of whether
or not the American mind will ever
know how to cope with the Nazis.
now that they are conquered.
The man fined for cruelty alleg-
edly trapped rat and tied him to
a tree so that his two cats could
practice rat catching.
Maybe it wasn't a pretty sight.
But if a mans abode is infested
with rats-a loathsome animal with
out any lovab:c or redeemine quail
ities-it seem~ as though he might
use any meth1o possible to 2tt rid
of them.
But a rat tied up-in the senti-
mental American mind-isn't a rat
at all, but fellow creature that de-
serves fair play and a sporting
chance.
That kind of sentimental bosh
makes us lose sight of the fact that
rat, trapped, is just a rat-and
what becomes of him doesn't mat
ter, SO long as he isn't allowed to
live and reproduce his kind.
And so is a defeated and captured
Nazi a Nazi still Let's hope that
our sentimental pity for anything
caught or captured won't IL. us
forget that or. start talking about
compassion and fair play.
An American editor, back from
Q tour of German concentration
camps, has declared that the whole
German people should be held re-
sponsible for war atrocities, and
that until we have eliminated the
German general staff, we are going
to have the seeds of another war
Undoubtedly that is hard-head-
ed, practical, sane view of the mat
ter But will we carry it through
we, people who can be SO senti-
mental and forgiving that we worry
over what becomes of a captured
rat?

KODIAK DIARY

One of our local businessmen, who has spent some time in Se- attle, recently ordered some new postwar products from a sales 1 man calling on him here. 1 The company making the of ferings is ln Seattle, and the busi- nessman has purchased many things therein fact has been in i the blace so much that he IS greeted therein by his first name.
 But when this order went to Seattle, back came a reply-the company was glad to get the or der, they didn't know the per- son ordering it, SD please send a check for 5000, and they would take good care of said sum (our words, not theirs) for 60 or 90 days until the stuff becomes a. vailable.
 Our local businessman didn't like the reflection on his credit, didn't like the idea of financing some Seat tie firm for 60 or 90 days Cat least helping tol and didn't like the letter.
 It is things like that, he point ed out, that tempt one to buy from other than Seattle firms, that makes one wish other than Seattle might be an air gateway to Alaska. that makes one won der if Seattle firms think they can get by with such practices just because eve quote Seattle) "it is Seattle's historical right to be the gateway to Alaska" We gathered that our local businessman is not going to send the thousand dollars.

The Victory Ships s. Kodiak, which was launched in Portland, Oregon, Dec. l9, 1914, got a. round a bit before the end of the war, according to information received from the U. s. Maritime Commission by Mrs. Emil Knud- sen, the ships sponsor.
 Carrying war cargoes vital to the needs of the Army and Navy, the good ship Kodiak visited As toria, Frisco, Eniwetok, Saipan, Pearl Harbnr. Eniwetok, Saipan, Two lima, Eniwetok, Frisco, Port Townsend, Seattle, Port Angeles, Enlwetok, Ulithi-and when the war was over, it was at anchor at Okinawa (After looking at the list we don't see how 1t missed being at Eniwetok at that time, 1t visited there so much.)
 The Kodiak Victory is the yes sel with the huge half-moun ed Kodiak bear as mascot from the city of Kodiak, and for an island animal 1t did do some is- land-hopping-but we hate to think how those South Pacific isles suffered by comparison.
 Now if the Kodiak Victory could just visit Kodiak, it's des- tiny would be complete. If the vessel is declared surplus it should sell easier than other Vie tory models, considering half a bear is at least twice as good as none. Why doesn't Alaska Steamship look into it?
