Thirty miles of new line, lO5 new subscribers and a $14,OOO op- erating margin, were the accomp- lishments achieved by the Mat anuSka Electric Association last year, members were told at last Saturdays annual meeting.
 The report proved so generally acceptable to everyone in attend ance that they retaliated by elect ing each of the incumbents on the board of directors to a new term of office. Officers who will con- tinue to guide MEAS policies for another year include:
 Thomas Lepak, Louise Kellogg. Bruce Graham, Walter Iceland and Robert Johns.
 Members were told that the year 1850 can be expected to bring new line extensions of Chugiak. Jonesville and the Lake Lucille area near Wasilla.

 MT. Lowery said the joint steam plant planned by the Alaska Rail road and the Chugach Electric As sociation would bring some reduc- tion in power rates. MEA will participate in this project through purchase of power from the plant.

A prediction that, in the fu-

quired to spend two years in mill

Declaring that "the world In
which we live is going to be faced
more and more with duties" the
Selective Service director recalled
that the first proponent of uni
versal military training spoke of
six months service for each
inductee. The present length of
service required is 81 months.
Gen. Hershey said he believes

II think we will be wise if we
can spread the responsibility over
as large a number of the people
as possible" said Gen. Hershey.

Emily Post

Dear Mrs. Post: Where do the
serving spoons belong when the
serving dishes are put on the
table and handed around and no
one is waiting on table? Should
they be put in the dish or on the
table beside it?
Answer-If the dishes are un-
covered. you would put them in.
If they have lids on, you lay the
serving implements beside the
dishes and put them into the
dishes when they are passed. The
lids turned upside down are left
where the dishes were until each
has made the round of the table,
then the lid is placed on the dish
with the spoon still in it, and the
dish is put back in place.

Dear Mrs. Post: Why should a
mans pipe be banned in one Of

ticularly when the air is filled with
other smoke? My husband and I
were in such a place in New York
lately and when my husband be-
gan smoking very nice looking
pipe he was asked to stop. No rea-
son was given except 1t was
against the rules.
Answer-So few pipes are
properly cared for that pipe
smoking has been frowned on in
many restaurants. This is a pun
ishment exacted of the careful
smokers because of the objection

I don't see any other way than

hobby to keep in order. You might
soften your refusal by saying that
if there is anything else that they
would like sometime you'd be glad
