The most wonderful idea in
years is the new "ten-by-ten"
groups that are forming all over
the country. Ten women phoned
ten other women to talk about
living expenses in Washington,
d. c. Those ten women called
ten more. until finally there were
these ten by tenners all over the
country. They exchange ideas
about buying and menus. They
also pledge TO resist unreason-
able prices and cut their own
living expenses at least ten per
cent this new year. This sounds
like the weaker sex has at last
decided to do something about
the inflationary government we
now have, and in the way they
know best, by talking. If you
want to participate or learn more
about the group, write House

David and Thomas Brewer Donate Manuscript '50.
 Years" to US. Library

Two residents of Point Barrow are among the donors who gave original manuscript material to the Library of Congress in Wash ington, D.C., during 1851. Their gift is described in the May issue of the library's Quarterly Journal of Current Acquisitions published last week.
 Messrs. D avid and Thomas Brewer presented a copy of ex- cerpts, in longhand and type script, of the diary kept by their father, Charles B. Brewer, from Jan., 1886, to Sept, 1887.
 The diary of this towering fig ure of recent American Arctic history was the basis for his auto biography, Fifty Years Below Zero," published in 1922.
 Two examples are typical of the cryptic diary entries:
 "Old woman walled up in snow house to freeze. Boys take out bring to station. Not sick just old" And "Snow house feet wet and freeze while building house. Thawing feet. Taken home next day in bed two months. Heels hard to heal"
 In the autobiography these en- tries were greatly amplified and clarified.
 The Journal article on "Manu- scripts" in which this gift is men, toned notes that some 18O,OOO items were added to the manu- script holdings of the Library of Congress in 1851 and that the total now nmbers more than 12,- 000,000 items.
