Patterns show perforations where
the pleats fold, and when cutting the
skirt these should be marked heav-
lily with chalk. Fold the pleats on
the line of the white chalk marks,
using straight and even lines. Pin
and baste carefully, working on a
fiat surface so that you can pleat
the skirt all the way. It should be
basted carefully and then pressed
after you are certain the pleats
are even and correct.
In basting pleats it is best to baste
the center pleat first, then the ones
to either side. If the skirt is pleat-
ed all over in front, the pleats will
overlap considerably at the waist
line. In all cases of pleating, keep
the lengthwise grain of the fabric
as correct as possible; otherwise,
the skirt will appear lopsided and
will be difficult to wear.
Careful tailoring is required in
making pleats, but it is possible
for even beginner to do this cor
rectly, provided she measures care
fully and works correctly. Use pat
tern directions and tape measure
discreetly.
Stitching is very important if the
finished skirt is to look nice, but
with good basting stitches to guide
you, there should be no difficulty in

In this survey, the average of the
guesses by the public of the war
time profits made by industry was
:. thirty per cent (30%).
But in the four war years of
1912, 1943, 1914, and 1945, the
profits of International Harvester
Company averaged only ;. 4.9%
on sales. Less than one sixth of
what the general public guessed
for all industry.
For this period, the year by

building business. The matter un- der discussion by these two young businessmen pertained to h e dredging of Dry Pass instead of Wrangell Narrows.
 Water and House, who have had wide experience on boats, pointed out that the money earmarked for the dredging of the Narrows could better be spent in Dry Pass Their argument was sound, their ideas good. Waters suggested a bulkheaj be built across the three miles of Dry Pass and the silt pumped out be banked behind it to make an airfield which would accommodate even the largest planes. He point ed out the cost would be only a fraction of what dredging the Nar- rows would be and would bring the larger vessels closer to both Petersburg and Wrangell.
 It was called to Waters atten- tion that dradging of Dry Pass had been talked of for years It has It's no reflection on Wrangell's older heads to say these young blUods might go out and accom- plish what the older heads could not do. The world and States are more Alaska conscious than ever in the Territory's history, perhaps and our young men realize it.
 But, be that as it may, dredging or no dredging, the point is that it is indeed heart-warming to see our young men returning from war, take active interest in their com- munity. They have travelled far and wide and seen much They have new ideas, solid plans and
