WHY NOT TRY ALASKA

With the United States de-
Tense production chiefs plainly
worried about the nations supply
! of certain strategic minerals, the
average Alaskan can't help won
dering why serious attempt
isn't made to develop some of
the territory's War-vital minerals.
Among the metals which the
nation lacks in sufficient abun-
dance and which are vital to
rapidly expanding defense pro-
duction are chromium and tin.
Leaders are reported concern
ed over the real possibility of
present foreign sources being
cut off in the event of war. AL
aska is no foreign country and it
has disable supplies of both tin
and chromium. Yet, in the face
OF impending serious need, the
nation is doing nothing to pro-
mote the development Of the
chromium supply near Seidovia
and practically nothing to en-
courage mining Of tin on the
Seward Peninsula
1t will be argued that high
transportation and labor costs
and even lower grade ore are
drawbacks to developing the
Alaskan deposits. These argu-
ments are as good only as long
as the normal rules of peace
time economy apply, and they
are fast being discarded.
All the tin in Malaga and the
chromium in south America
won't be worth a thing to the
United States unless the metals
can be delivered 1t would seem
wise for the nation to start in
vesting in the mineral wealth
Of a territory which it controls,
and which won't tear up its
commitments with a sudden
change in government.
Chromium worth only few
dollars a pound in peacetime
may be of inestimable value if
the possession of it determines
whether or not certain war ma
terial can be made. A million
dollar bomber isn't worth dime
if lack OF a few dollars worth
of chromium keeps it from fly
ing. Thus, it is apparent that GER
tain economic rules must be suS-

THREE WEDDINGS HERE

Miss Marion Munson, her maid
of honor, wore the same shade
in lace, with a corsage of pink
camelias. Jack Jeffrey was best

The apartment was decorated
with flowers and tapers in the
Christmas colors. Eight guests
were present for the wedding,
and so for the reception which
followed in the apartment.
Mrs. Kimball has taught in
the Seward schools for several
years and will finish out the
term here before leaving for

out the scientific dogma of a

Yes, l am of simple mind,

that Christ, who is God, builded
a Church, as He, Himself, stated
that He left the Will of His
Father with this Church which.
under the direction of the Holy
Ghost, was to safeguard His
Truths for all ages, teach them
to the world in all their COM

so definitely that they might
be acted upon with certainty

 ". =. So many people asked about buying the little totems from Chris Fletcher that we finally de- cided since there was a price mark on practically all of them that We would sell from that time on. 1 suppose we could have sold them all if we had taken advantage oi every inquiry.

YuIe Decorations
Can Be Dangerous

Safety as well as beauty should
be a consideration in your choice
of Christmas decorations, the Ma
tional Board of Fire Underwrit-
ers advises.
Combustible decorations con-
tributed to one of the worst fire
disasters of modern times, when
SO people died at a Christmas
party in Newfoundland in 1912,
the organization points out. Many
home fire tragedies have also re-
suited from this cause.
Non-flammable decorations of
glass and meal are now generally
available, the National Board
says. Families can also obtain
snow" for use around the Christ
mas tree which will not flare up
when touched by flame.
The organization emphasized
the Importance of selecting
Christmas tree lights which bear
evidence of listing by Underwrit-
ers' Laboratories, Inc. Candles
should never be used on the tree
or around the house, and decorat-
ing the tree with cotton or paper
is also extremely dangerous, the
National Board observed.

Sausage Dish Is
Aid To Shoppers

With Christmas shopping fire.
uuently keeping the homemaker
away from home until late after
noon, quick easy plan is vitally
needed for dinner. Spicy pork
sausage and apple rings can be
a tempting answer, points out
Reba Stages, home economist.
Typifying winter, these two
foods fit together in numerous
menus. For instance, bulk pork
sausage may be formed into pat
ties and unpeeled apples sliced
into rings. The two are placed
in a frying-pan with two or three
tablespoons of water. Sugar is
sprinkled over the apples, the pan
is covered tightly and the sausage
and apples cooked for about ID
minutes. At the end of this time
the cover is removed and the
sausage patties allowed to thor
oughIy brown. Sausage links
which require slightly less cook
ing time are another choice for
this dish.
To complete the menu, buttered
spinach or other green vegetable
is added along with a salad of
tossed fresh vegetables, bread or
hot rolls, a dessert and beverage.
