Silence Is Deafeninu
 As Juneau Observes A Quiet Holiday
This is a QUIET! town.

This Is a QUlEl! ,UOWn.
 For all but a few, today was a holiday, marking yesterdays Arm istice Day. And as the less fortunate trudged to work-or school-with the dawn barely light. the only noise that could be heard was from pillow -pounders, and that was only in the imagination of jealous fellow on his way to work. Scattered window lights and a stray car or pedestrian were the only evidences of life in Juneau sas the holiday began. Nearly all of the city's business houses were closed, all federal and territorial offices observed the holiday, and only schools, most restaurants, hotels, and a few other businesses had their doors unlocked.
 Movies were open and few clubs and organizations held parties and programs. But it was a day of rest Or a chance to get out in the clear, fall air for most of Juneaus people. Sundays solemn rites at churches and the parade and Memorial lih- rary dedication fittingly observed Armistice Day.
 And Juneaus big news of the day was its unusual quiet.

Big Kodiak Bear ||I,
 High Liver

SAN DIEGO, Calf, Nov. 12-R Rich food was blamed today for the illness of Jim, big Kodiak bear which has been a favorite at the San Diego Zoo for 20 years. ........
 Mrs. Belle Benchley, zoo director, said she has little hope that Jim will recover.
 The bear, paralyzed in his hind legs, has eaten great quantities of candy, bread, nuts and popcorn thrown to him by the zoo public ever the years.
 Jim, who weighs 1,7OO pounds, was brought from Kodiak Island, AL aska, with brother, Joe, in 1881. Joe died of an infection several years ago.

Palmer is not ready for ap- plication of fluorides in the public water system. warned Dr. Foster Sims in a talk 10 Kiwanians Mon- day. even if all the people were willing for the experiment..
 This statement was made by Doc" in the course of a very in- tereSting talk on the structure of teeth, causes of decay, and cor rective dentistry made at the reg ular Kiwanis noon meeting st Rec. Hall. He also outlined the story of fluorides as decay pre- ventives.
 Drafted for extemporaneous talks by President Hugh Johnson, Elmer LeDuc related some of his fishing experiences in Montana this past summer and C. A. Brew CT described the difficulties of hauling trailer up the highway.

SS Director Lists
 Main Points of New Military Training Act

John L. Mccormick. Territor- isl Director of Selective Service. announced today that some of the main provisions of the new Uni versal Military Training and Ser vice Act which will be put in the form of regulations are:
 l. The Selective Service System is continued indefinitely, but authority to induct men into the Armed Forces has been extended only to July l, 1855.
 2. Age of liability for training and services in the Armed Forces, l8 years 6 months to 26 years (formerly l9 to 26)

 i. The defination of veterans is the same as in the l948 Act, and those meeting the requirments are exempt, married or single.

Training Courses and Practice Sessions in Gva Defense Urged

Earl Landreth. Territorial Di- rector of Civil Defense. issued a special memorandum last week saying that local directors should plan training courses for all of their personnel.
 Tn order that the training be general, adequate, and proper, !" Landreth said, it will be advis- able to establish a training divi- sion under a competent training officer. It will be the responsi- bility of training officers to es- tabiish schools and courses to be given thereat. In general, such courses will follow instructional material furnished by the Fed eral Civil Defense Administra- tion. The method used will be one first of explanation, then de- monstration, followed by practice by the students. Training should progress from individual train ing to team training, then be com bined with the entire local or ganization participates.
 Training should be kept real istic and interesting. To this end, charts should be used in explana- tion classes; demonstrations should use sufficient training aids to show the student what is to be done and how; and practical work should be under conditions simu- lating those that might be met in actual practice.
 Training aids are considered organizational equipment and may be obtained from Territorial Headquarters. Training officers should make application for training aids as early as possible. Training aids include books, training films, maps, overlays, mock-ups. graphs. charts, class room equipment, and other ma- terials necessary to the conduct of training courses.
 Courses should be planned for: Police auxilaries, fire auxiliaries, wardens, rescue personnel, re- connaissance teams, engineering teams, home protection (to in- clude fighting small fires, first aid, what to do on warning sig nal and conduct during and after attack), protection in schools, op- eration of control center, commit nications, and evacuation.
 In addition Landreth stated that special courses for labora- tory assistants should be planned.

Announce 3rd Annuol Duck Stamp" Contest

For the third consecutive year the Fish and wildlife Service will conduct a public contest open 10 all artists-amateurs as we'll as professionals-for the purpose of selecting the design for the 1882 1853 Federal duck stamp" Sec retary of the Interior Oscar l.. Chapman announced. All entries must reach the Fish and Wildlife Service in Washington, D. C., on or before January ', 1852.
 The migratory bird hunting stamp - better known as the duck stamp" - has become fa- miliar to all migratory waterfowl hunters and to philatelists and eonservationists throughout the country since the first issue in the series went or sale iii 1894. Near ly twice the size of a special de- livery stamp, it costs $2, and ev- eryone over Is years of age who hunts migratory waterfowl is re- quired to have this stamp in hls possession, validated by his sig nature.
 Each year the design used on the duck stamp is chosen by a judging committee of waterfowl authorities from among entries submitted by artists from every part of the nation.
 The winning artist will receive no direct compensation if his de- sign is selected, but the distinc- ton is unique and worthwhile. Many of the winning artists in former years have been able tc capitalize on their designs by sell ing autographed prints; all such projects, however, are subject to the terms of the contract which the winning artist signs with the Fish and Wildlife Service.
 Artists will be given wide latitude in the choice of medium pen and ink, oil, watercolor etching, pencil, etc.-and in their subject The subject, of course must be a true-to-life portrait o1 wild waterfowl. Most of the win ming entries in previous years were of ducks and geese in ac- ton. At any rate, the birds should be in position and plum age "as the hunter sees them"
 respective entrants may write to the Fish and Wildlife Service Washington 25, D. C., for com plete contest details

Serve Pancakes in Plain and Fancy Dress
By Violet Faulkner

For generations fluffy, golden
pancakes, hot of the griddle, and
dripping with butter and sirup
have been a familiar sight on the
American breakfast table.
In fact. pancakes were among
the first of the made" dishes
when man began to combine foods
and cook them. The American
Indian was making a thin corn
meal cake. baked on hot stones,
when the Pilgrims landed on these
shores. Kitchen equipment was
scarce among the early settlers
and they quickly borrowed this
primitive method from the In
dians. AS other grains became
available they began to mix corn
meal with rye and wheat to make
the forerunner of the pancakes Of
today.
In those early days it was
thought proper to serve pancakes
only as breakfast fare. Even
tually, due to our own ingenuity
and the influence Of other nations.
pancakes began to appear as
luncheon and supper main dishes
served with meat and fish sauces
or as dessert with fruit and berry
toppings.
Before the turn Of the century
pancakes advanced another step
when a commercially prepared
mix appeared on the market and
started a trend toward a wide
variety Of ready-mixes.
The story behind the first pan
cake mix began in the deep South.
Legend has it that a nanny cook
named Aunt Jemima at Higbee's
Landing in Louisiana was famous
for her light. fluffy pancakes.
Visitors from near and far made a
point of stopping at the Land
ing" to partake Of those deli
cious cakes. Just as it is today,
when We run into something spe-
cially good to eat, we all want the
recipe So it was back in those
days, too. For years she guarded
her recipe zealously, she revealed
the secret to no one. Finally,
however. she was prevailed upon
to sell the formula and from that

make a rich. dollar-sized version
and serve it as dessert topped with
lingonberry sauce; in Russia sour
cream and fresh caviar accom-
pany blinis when used as an ap-
Ipetizer course, while a slightly diff
Iferent version somewhat like the
French crepe) called blintchky is
sprinkled with sugar, with jam. or
with a suzette sauce and appear
