fFront Mrs. II. c. r., SilDer Spring.
I have two requests and as there
seems to be nothing impossible
through RICH, I'm sure some one
can help me. For a few years I
have corresponded with family
in Berlin, but their letters come to
me written in German which 1
cannot read. Before moving here
I had a friend who did my trans
lating and now am wondering If
there is any one who can help me
here. I have two that I can't an
swer until l know their contents.
Second, I wonder If any one
knows where I could send to buy
strips for crocheting a rug. I saw
a lady this summer while we were
away using these strips which are
trimmings from childrens striped
polo shirts. 1t worked up beauti-
fully and I've tried to find q mill
or place to get them, but have
had no luck. will be glad for any
suggestions.
Thank you 50 much and my
congratulations to Betsy Caswell
for such a grand column. What a
wonderful way to help so many!

PANAMA CANAL ZONE.


From Mrs. ]. H. G., Falls Church,
am glad to tell you what II
know about the Panama Canal
Zone. I spent the winter of 1919
and 1850 in Balboa with my
daughter and her family. I may
be writing you too late and you
may have all Of the information
you want, but I never miss an
opportunity to rave about the
beauty. flowers, ETC., Of that part
of the country.
The commissaries seemed to be
well stocked with food all of the
time. The boat brings the produce
once a week and there are sol
many Chinese there and they
have gardens and you can buy
real nice vegetables from them.
In fact. almost anything your ap-
petite would call for can be
found in the stores in Panama.
They are higher than in the
Canal Zone however.
To me, the climate was wonder
ful-always q breeze. We slept
under blankets there nearly every
night, Take plenty Of cotton
dresses and dress-up dresses in
silk. I went to SO many parties!
The boat trip is something you
will remember a long time. The
meals are wonderful and there
is some amusement every night.
While you are on the boat for
5 days, you might see good movie
one night, attend a dance the
next and then there is always the
captains dinner and that is the
night that every one dresses up.
| I think your little daughter will
be amused with the swimming
pool and the many other things
which are too numerous to men
ton. I do hope you will enjoy
your stay there.

SUNDAY MEAL?
From Mrs. E. J. H., WashingtonJ
We attend Sunday school and
church as a family on Sundays,
yet, the rest Of the day seems to
be spent in the kitchen-for
mother at least. I would appre-
ciate hearing how other families
manage, for I look around me in
church and I know we must all
face that same ordeal-the SUM-
day dinner when we get home!
Our growing boys are simply
starved by / o'clock, ana here is
mother just beginning to prepare
a meal, and hungry herself. I
might add. How about some sug-
gested menus and methods Of
managing a pleasant meal so rs
not to spoil the affects Of a good
sermon and stili leave time for
afternoon recreation? Sunday is
our only day when the whole fam
lily can be together.

Seword Girl Scouts Have Visi4
 From Field Leoder

Miss Dorothy Petron, of Se- attle, Washington, national field leader of Girl Scouts, was in Seward a short time Thursday, May 24, until the Baranof sailed She had been holding a series of meetings in Anchorage, which ended May 13.
 Thursday evening, she was entertained at dinner at the Pal ace Cafe by a group of leaders, committee members, and inter- ested guests Miss Petron dis cuSsed with these leaders and committee members of Girl Scouts and Brownie troops of Seward the status of Girl Scout ing in Seward, and gave them recommendations for the future planning of the Girl Scout pro- gram.
 Miss Petron stated that Alas ka now has 20O0 Girl Scouts, including 300 adults. Anchorage has 800. Seward has approxi- mately SO Community associa- tions, made up of people who represent the community as whole, are largely responsible for the success and growth of the Girl Scouts in the commul- ity. Ii works with the leaders and committee members of the various troops to provide such privileges as creative activities, good times, and the right com munity life for young people. In addition to the community association, the troops are spon- sored by other organizations. The Women's Society of Christ ian Service of the Methodist church and the WOmen's clubs have done this in the past in Seward.
 It is hoped that Seward will be able to give more of the above privileges to all girls of Seward by having strong community association, g o o q leaders, and parents who are Interested in the Girl Scout pro, gram.

Elimination of Spares Must Be Reflected
 In Automobile Prices

The Office of Price Stabiliza- tion announced last week that retail ceiling prices on passen- ger automobiles must be reduc- ed to compensate for the recent elimination of spare tires and tubes.
 The Ma ional Production Authority ordered the elmina- tion of the fifth tire and tube to conserve rubber. 0. P. s. pointed out that many dealers have voluntarily lowered their sales prices to varying eXtents since NPA's action.
 The order provides that dcal- CTS now must reduce the selling price of automobiles by an equal amount to the manutactur r s charge to them of the eliminated equipment, plus the amount of the dealers own markup on the tire. For example, if the extra tire and tube previously cost the dealer S1000 and tho selling price of the car reflected a S2 % profit on the tire and tube, he must reduce the price of the automobile S1200 if the tire and tube are eliminated,
 0. P. s. reminded that r2- quiring a customer to purchase additional equipment, services or repairs as a condition of the sale of a new automobile is pro hibited Likewise, requiring a purchaser to trade in a car or commodity as a condition of sale is illegal

VISITOR FINDS LOCAL JAIL VERY COMFORTABLE"

A visitor from Anchorage, who is the owner of a we'll known old night club there, spent a night in the Seward jail this week. He found it very com fortable," he said. Il had two rooms and a good bed, but could only get one room in the hotel"
 What seemed to surprise the gentleman more than anything else, was that the large amount of money he carried was un- touched when he was released in the morning. T was probably safer in jail than anywhere else" he said You sure have honest cops"
 The Anchorage man is still friends with the honest Seward police force, and in no wise angered by his incarceration.

Higiswoy Changes
 interest Motorists

After a few days without rain, the Highway was in fairly good condition last Sunday. Workmen had left the various spots under construction between Seward and Moose Pass in very passable condition, and many motorists took the opportunity to see what is being done.
 Blind curves near Grouse Lake are being blasted away, and the road Widened consid- erably. The cliff from Mile IS to Victory Creek is also being pushed back, so that the old, breath taking danger spots will be eliminated.
 It has been reported that some cars have managed to get thru the Turnagain Arm stretch. This was not verified here, but if true, the going must be pretty rough
 The road is still closed from 10 ?. m. to 6 a. m. week nights to allow for blasting without traffic Interruptions

Police Search For Dangerous Dogs

An epidemic of dog bites last week, caused Dr. R. o. Sellers, city Health Officer, to order all dogs to be kept off the streets, or destroyed in an effort to To- cate the dangerous animals. Sev- en persons were treated in a week for dog bites. Although no rabies has been found to date, it was thought wise to take all possible precautions.
 Policemen were ordered to impound all dogs found on the streets, and to destroy those not claimed within 24 hours. Pets must be kept on leash, or in fenced yards until the epidemic is over.
