Board Of Health
 Passes Resolution Asking For Action

JUNEAU, Sept. 10-(P The Territorial Board of Health con- cluding a weeks sessions passed a resolution that in view of the deplorable prevalence and steady increase of tuberculosis among the people that immediate direct ac- tion should be taken for adequate funds to be made available; That it would be an advantage to have an extraordinary session of the Territorial Legislature. The next regular session will not convene until January, 1947, and that will be too late to take advantage of federal help in the way of build ings and funds which are now available with the end of the war.
 The resolution is signed by Dr. Dwight Cramer, First Division; Katherine Kehoe, Second Divi- sion; R. R. Armstrong, Third Di- vision; George Preston, Fourth Division. There is no signature by Governor Gruening, who was chairman.

THE President was a little abrupt: | Dean, I'm glad you came in. I'd been thinking of asking you to drop in before we confirm the next years appointments And the fact is, think you better take this editorship."
 "Eh?"
 "The fact is, I'm afraid you've outlived your usefulness as an educator"
 "Eh?"
 You're a good speaker, and you're popular with the students, and you've started some interest ing novelties - the course in Rus sian and the Music Guild and the abolition of hazing. But you've seen the Russian and the Guild fade and die, and you haven't done a thing about it. You're not really an executive-you're a promoter - and the activities that you promote aren't very sound. You just dream 'em and let 'em float off in smoke. And you've been increasingly neg lectful of plodding, day-by-day de- tails. You haven't even been here very much. So I guess both sides are perfectly satisfied, and We can say farewell with the best of good feel ings."
 So Gideon Planish firmly set his plump foot upon the upward path that would lead through the miasma of featuring and the bleak wind of editing to the glory of cloud-cuckoo-land, yes, even unto the world of committee and con- ferences and organizations and leagues, of implementing ideals and crystalizing public opinion and finding the greatest common de- nominator in all shades of opinion
 Though he had lost the Christian name Dean, still he was Dr. Planish, always Dr. Planish - that was his first name: Dr.; and as such, along with every Colonel, every Reverend Doctor, every M. D., every Monsig- nor, every Rabbi, every Herr Ge- heimrat, every Judge, every Lord, every Governor, he was so highly exalted that he was not merely man, but title.
 
 THEY were welcomed to Des | Moines in July with a party given by MT. A. J. Joslin, a small and nervous man who had bright eyes but a mouth that was always slightly open. The party was op- erated in a private dining room at the Count Frontenac Hotel, with Iowa vodka and Mississippi River caviar, and they met society editor a congressman, and the chief agent for the whole Middlewest of a great tractor company, who sang Heres to Giddy, he's true blue; he's drunkard through and through
 MT. Joslin stated that under the inspired genius, lofty Humanitarian ism and practical hustle of the new editor, he expected to see Rural Adult Education on every parlor table from Kalispell to Paducah.
 Then he called pr. Planish aside and explained that he had left his wallet home, and could the Doctor let him have $50 till tomorrow? (But on the morrow, he did not seem to remember it)
 So the Planishes were launched on a metropolitan stream of ele- gance, excitement and fame.

BEAUTIES HINTS
 Ease the Pinch
 OfFaU FootlUear
By ALICIA HART NEA Staff Writer

Ever hear of anybody who put perfume on the feet?
 Diogenes, the Greek philosopher famed for his wisdom, did. He claimed that vapors rising from the feet perfumed the whole body; that those rising from the head where we're all most apt to dab ourselves with scent went up into the air and were wasted.
 That's a tip, which you can use for whatever it's worth. A girl who perfumed her feet would be obliged to notice whether they were as nicely kept as they should be to justify such a ritual. That, of course, would mean not only better looking, but more com- fortable feet.
 Now that you're going back into dressy shoes, which will fit more snugly than the thonged sandals of summer, any crumbs of com fort tossed to your feet will help to ease the pinch and induce the under-dogs to give you more cheerful support.

* : WE. THE WOMEN
Ridicule Never Changed a Woman's Heart

In all these issues when the men have showed their disapproval in ridicule the women have just be- come more determined than ever to do exactly as they please.
 That probably isn't just plain cussedness on the part of women, but springs from their intuitiVe knowledge that once a woman starts letting a man tell her what she can and can't or should and shouldn't do, she has let herself in for a lifetime of bullying.
 APPROVAL MIGHT WORK
 So when men take a stand against a feminine trend it becomes an important issue to women.
 It's safe bet that slacks would lose a lot of their popularity if in- stead of ridiculing them men said: What a sensible style, practical, inexpensive, comfortable, and the fact that they aren't alluring isn't really important at all"

John Whitney Richmond of the War Finance Committee or New York gave me todays hand. He said he had expected to go down one, but that was not the way it worked out.
 Opening lead was won with the queen of diamonds. Then Rich mond thought he would knock out the ace of hearts and get over to dummy to finesse the spade, He made the mistake, however, of leading to dummy's deuce of spades, Whereupon East said, You have led from the wrong hand"
 Now declarer was forced to lead the same suit from the correct hand, and Richmond had to lay down his ace of spades. Of course, he caught Vests singleton king then knocked out the ace ol hearts and was able to finesse East out of his jack of spades. Thus. in- stead of going down one, ne made fiVe-odd.

Hunting Elk From Porch Lacks Sport

Ouray. Colo, Nov. 6.--(UP)-Big game hunting is getting to be a rather heart-breaking business in Ouray. It's sort of like shooting your family milk COW or riding horse.
 Ouray is a town of about TOO located 7,800 feet up in the Un- compahgre National Forest. The residents think it's a nice town, and so do the wild elk.
 It's pretty convenient for hunt CTS who like to get their catch, but who don't like the idea Of tramping in the forest for hours in the cold and damp atmosphere All they need to do is pull their rocking chairs onto the porch or some Ouray house, park their feet on the railing, rest their gun across their knees and wait for some elk to saunter down the street.
 Its a fact that three years ago big game hunts were con- ducted on the mayors lawn. There were seven or eight elk that made regular nocturnal visits to graze in the city, back and forth across the main street. One of those was Solomon" who was so used to city ways that he would even stop before crossing a street to see If any cars were coming. But, alas, one day a backporch hunter shot him.
 The hunting situation looks pretty good this year, Last spring number of elk wandered into town to graze on tender grass and other early growths hurried along by hot water pipes few feet underground. A herd of 300 of the animals found that the city swim ming pool made a fine watering hole. Even now they are still grazing on acreage only a block from the post office.

Now there is tip-of to the men who hate the things on women. Every knock has been a boost" HAS IT EVER WORKED?
 As a matter of fact have men ever persuaded women to change their minds about anything by go- ing in for ridicule? Masculine ridi- cule didn't keep women from get ting the vote. It didn't keep them from bobbing their hair, It hasn't even made them shun silly hats.
