Traffic on Palmer's skyways is almost reaching the point of con- gestion, as new planes are added to the Palmer port roster in ever increasing numbers. Latest ar- rivals to wing their way north are Edwin Long of St. Paul, Minn., and Maynard Enfield of Cuthbert, South Dakota.
 The two young pilots, each of whom flies a five-place Stinson Reliance, touched wheels to the runway at M erie Anderson's private airstrip late last week. They have just finished the spring term at the University of Minnesota, and plan to spend the summer flying freight-passenger charters in this area.
 MT. Long is no newcomer to the Valley, for he was here last summer, he flew visitors on aeri- al sightseeing circuits over Knik glacier during fair week last year.
 MT. Long completed his work at Minnesota this year, and ex- poets to make the Valley his

Pair Seek Jewels In Basement Debris

Pearl-diving-Alaskan style was in progress on one of Pal mer's main street intersections all last Saturday afternoon.
 However, it was diamonds and not pearls that searchers Delbert Anderson and Paul Stockard were diving for. They conducted their search in cold ashes, on one of Palmer's breezier days, and they say they'll take the real thing, carried on in cool, clean sea water, any day.
 The men were sitting ashes of the destroyed Bert's Drug Store in search of the diamonds and gold that had been in stock at the jewellers counter. Diamonds are undamaged by fire, and it was hoped the melted gold could be reclaimed.
 Success of the sitting opera tions was still unknown at press time today.

 The Long-Enfield flight plans for the summer include some idea of setting up as aerial green grocer's for outlying mines, as we'll as sightseeing tours and other charter flights.
 Both men have spent the last few days making color films and slides of the Valley and of ami nal life in tn surrounding mountains. Already they have made photographic flights over Knik Glacier, where they have been fortunate enough to get sev- eral good picture chances at goats browsing on the steep mountain slopes.
 MT. Enfield and MT. Long will base their planes on the Ander- son port until the north-south runway of Palmer airport is ready for use again. They are living at the Lodge.

Vets Tax Is Ended

Alaskans again need no longer be penny-conscious. Yesterday was the last day for the collec- ton of veterans tax on sales, it was announced by Archie Brown of the territorial department of taxation.
 Established by act of the legis- lature two years ago, the tax brought about a whole new sys- tenn of accounting for Alaskans. Before the tax was imposed, they added their accounts to the near est nickel, and waved away the pennies as too unimportant to consider.
 However the pennies have ac- cumulated at a rapid rate in the past two years. The fund they built is used to provide loans to territorial veterans of the recent war.

No Weathernan For Palmer Yet

The U. S. Weather Bureau in Anchorage reported today that to date no person has been named weatherman for Palmer although some applications have been re- ceived by the bureau.
 Weather bureau officials point ed out that there were several qualifications that must be met before an appointment can be made. The person selected for the job must be permanent resident with a re sona b e amount of knowledge regarding weather and must be prepared to forward weather observations to Anchorage three to five times daily, including Sundays n d holidays. The weatherman must also have a telephone.
 We have found persons un- willing to accept the job under those conditions and especially in view of the small salary we are able to offer," a weather bureau official said.
 We will be pleased to re- ceive applications from persons interested in the job. The bureau would prefer that the person re- side near the airport but that requirement could be over looked"

EUROPEAN CORRESPONDENT.

(Front Mrs. S. H. H., Siluer Spring.
Our favorite trick to cut the H.

drinking and cooking. The only
difference is butter fat, and the
adults in our family avoid fat. You
actually get more of all other nu-
trients per glass with the fat elm
mated. And it costs much less per
bottle.

mo NEED FOR HURRY"

better it would be not to bump" at

Gently, coming up from the base

bowed past me. I always let peo-
pie in a hurry pass, so I made room
for her to step ahead. I was greatly
amused when she exclaimed:
"Oh, I forgot my pocketbook! |"
and rushed past me again to go
back. She soon found out that she
was getting nowhere fast, and
turned around and went up with
the rest of us. The lines of the
spiritual came to mind why do I
hurry, why do I fret?" There Is no
need to hurry, except in emer-
gencies. If we allow ourselves plenty

FLUFFY DRY RICE.
From Mrs. Y P. w.. Washington
To Mrs. G. W., Washington: In
answering your question about cook
ing fluffy dry rice. Extra long grain
rice will bring best results. Use
aluminium pot with tight cover.
After placing desired amount of rice
in pot and washing thoroughly,
place hand on top Of rice, palm up
wards. Add only enough water to
cover fingers. Cover tightly and
place on high heat. As soon as it
starts boiling, stir once and replace
cover, leaving the heat high. Let
boil until you hear rice popping and
cracking. Immediately turn to low
heat and cook for 40 minutes. Then
fiuff 1t up with spoon before re-
moving from pot. II rice is a little
too dry to suit you, you can readily
use your own judgment as to how
much water to use thereafter. But
water should never be added after
rice has started boiling.
THUMB SUCKING;
BEDTIME HINT.
(From Mrs. L. r., Washington
This Is in answer to the request
recently for advice as to stopping
thumb sucking of small children.
I had that to go through, as my
pediatrician said to skip it" and
1 didl But my boy was 4 and my
girl az and got plum disguised
because they'd have to suck those
thumbs before any sleep would
come. I had purchased long stock
ings for them and the thought oc-
CURED to make them wear them
to bed. So I pinned them well to
the shoulders Of their pajamas and
shamed them o little bit to make
them understand that "only little
babies that wear diapers could suck
their thumbs"
BY jingo, 1t worked! After two
weeks I let them take their maps
stockingless but watched closely and
found the baby had to have more
time but the boy was through! 1t
took two weeks for the 4-year- -old
and q month for the 2-year -old but
even after each had been sick
months later, they did not suck that
thumb. Try 1t and I guarantee II
you are Arm and try to make them
realize that they're too old for 1t,
that thumb sucking will end.
Another suggestion: My little
darlings are the dickens when
they're put to bed, 80 to stop pillow
fights, ETC., try playing your nursery
rhymes for O half hour so they can
hear them while they're in bed and
at no other time. 1t worked here
It's very seldom we have any argu-
ments If we get them to request
the numbers wanted. It's O lot
easier than waiting them out or
trying to fight them down.
