tanning about 2 quarts of water
and bring to a full rolling boil
Set outdoors overnight and allow
the fat to gather on top and the
bacon settings and salt to go tc
the bottom leaving only white
grease.
Next weigh 6 pounds of this
grease and melt it. Then dissolve
(outdoors, if possible) in an
enamel pan l can of lye in quart
of water and let it cool. Mix u
cup borax and u cup bleach and
" cup household ammonia to-
gether. I use a large enamel par
which used to be a baby bath tub
to assemble the ingredients. Put
the lye in first, then the borax
bleach, ammonia mixture and
then the melted grease. Stir this
with a wooden spoon approx
mately 20 minutes or until it be-
gins to thicken a little and then
put it out to mold. The next day
cut it into bars. / use pyrex plates
or casseroles to pour it into. Dc
not use any aluminium or tin pans
This soap is much better if left to
ripen for while.

MAKING SOAP.
(From Miss E. A. washingtonJ

(From Miss e. A.. WashingtonJ
Mrs. G. B.. Arlington: This is
the soap recipe which have sent
to the RICH before. Homemade
soap: Render the fat (beef. lamb
pork) and strain through a very
fine strainer or through an or
dinary strainer lined with several
thicknesses Of cheesecake.
Add twice as much water as fat
and u teaspoon of baking soda to
each 2 cups fat. Boil for about 10
minutes. The water removes the
salt and the baking soda, taking
out the rancid odors. When the
10 minutes are I'D, skim of the
froth which viii form on top.
This may be allowed to cool and
harden, in which case it may be
removed from the top of the water
and extraneous particles which
adhere to the bottom of the fat
may be scraped of.
Melt the fat and allow to cool
to lukewarm. While the fat is
cooling dissolve l can I've in 3
pints cold water, using an enamel
or iron pot, and stir with a wooden
spoon or smooth stick. Enamel
pan is better as it does not hold
heat as long as iron.) The trick
to keep the lye from spilling or
spattering is to use a pan large
enough for the whole process
(about seven or eight quarts and
to set it where you can work con-
veniently without having to
move it.
The lye will heat the water quite
hot. When the water is partly
cold add u cup borax and "a cup
household ammonia and 2 table
spoons sugar and stir until dis
solved. When both the water and
fat are cooled to lukewarm-cool-
ing is important as the ingredients
will curdle If mixed while too
warm. and the soap will have free
fat on top and free lye on the bot
tom-add II cups of fat. Stir
steadily for 10 minutes. It will be
about the color and consistency of
strained apricotS.
Pour into molds. The bottoms
OF milk cartons, heavily waxed,
and glass refrigerator trays such
as those used for refrigerator drip
trays are good. Pour to about
inch deep and allow to stand for
a day or more in a moderate room
temperature. If the trays are
used. cut the following day (after
standing one day. to the size cakes
desired. Take out of tray and
stand on end to harden. Remove
milk cartons by cutting down the
side and tearing off.
We had only mild success with
perfuming, probably because of
the alcohol. Oil of cloves, CHINA
mon. or pine might be successful.
A teaspoon of blue vegetable COL
oring such as is used for cake icing
will give a pretty pink color to the
soap. Temperature and stirring are
the two most important features.
Counting redeemable price of 10
cents per pound for the fat, it
made the soap cost between 4 and
s cents per cake of the size weight
which sells for from 13 to II cents
per cake.

From Mrs. w. w. w., Arlington J
Can any of your readers help
me find a discontinued pattern?
It is a Mccall hustle blouse, num-
ber 6370 in, size Is or 16. I would
also like to know where one
might have a master pattern
made. I understand that it is
heavy paper and is used to ad-
just standard patterns to indi-
vidual shapes.
What are you readers opinions

for res ults. Instead 1 gave you undue consideration and dug down in my pocket and sent in a telegram to Washington, to speed things up. Now you growl about your paper being held up four days, when you knew when you printed 1t that it would be held for an opinion.
 Why didn't you tell your readers that the Solicitor stated in his most recent com- munication, that the I ubllsher should be warned that such announcements are non mail able and that if any future issue contains such matter, 1t will be necessary to consider whether to treat the entire issue as non-mailable matter. He also requested that a state ment in writing be obtained from the publisher for sub- mission to the Solicitors office; as to whether it is his inten- ton to continue to mail an. nouncements concerning lot teries.
 Now, Mel: let's come out in the open and give the whole truth and face the facts. This IS not a controversy between you and me but between you and the Post Office Depart ment. You know what the regulation is. For the good of everyone concerned, abide by it until it is repealed.
 Yours truly,
 Maurice l.. Briggs

We Need One

The big fire in Fairbanks last week which claimed the lives of four tragic illustration of the inadequate reproofng and fire safety in many of Aaskas buildings.
 Kodiak has been fortunate, comparatively in that no loss of life has occurred here due to fires However the past six at least five have died result of burns, sufocaton or shock when fires occurred.
 The city council has long discussed adopting a tonay approved code regarding wiring in public buildings and residences and basng city ordinance it. It has also talked of appointing fire marshal to inspect all public bud ngs periodically and have him make regular reports and recommendations the council for fire prevention
 We strongly favor the appointment of fire marshal If competent man is hired the entire community would benefit by such action Dangerous heating units in many public buildings would be eliminated; improper electrical wiring would be replaced. Result fewer fires Net result lower fire insurance rates and less loss of lives and property

FROM THE PRES ] BOX
 by lefty Graft, JOG USN

B0TFy &B Osa'
 The ink stained Wretches who eke out their living by reporting sports events have several times been boiled on this question
 What is the most colorful sports activity of them all to cover?"
 First place, a worlds heavy weight championship fight. It is strange that a prize fight would get more votes than the great Olympic Games. Rose Bowl football, the world series and other less ribald and row. dy activities.
 But for grim, savage drama. a battle of the titans under the blazing lights with the sur rounding mob calling for the kill is really a tingling sight. Having seen the Joe Louis versus Ez Charles fight in 1850, your old neighbor would vote with the rest of the scrlbss.
 However, it would take a stretch of the imagination to class Monday nights New York bout with the exciting cham pionship matches that have gone on before: Rocky Marci- ano, 27 year old brawler who knocked out Joe Louis last October, has won all Al pro starts since he came winging out of the army to start a box ing ca areer. And Harry Mat thewes of Seattle will both be fighting for their lives and the right to fight Charles for the Title come September or when Ez gets hungry again.
 Of course there won't be any Dempseys or Firpos a. round Monday night.
 Concensus of the writers IS that the meeting of Jack Dem psey and the Wild Bull of the Pampas was the most savage and violent sports affair of all time. It was strictly a Pier 6 brawl, the like of which box ing has never seen before or since.
 In contrast, the New York story Monday evening isn't likely to give anybody in the press section high blood pres

 Caldwell will also represent the city on the building of streets in the housing project. Aleutian Homes, sponsor of the project will do the actual construction of streets in it's limits.
 The city council held a special meeting Mono ay night with Caldwell. His arrival here postponed Mayor Lee c. Bettinger's proposed trip last week to Portland.

LETTER TO EDITOR
United States Post Office Kodiak, Alaska

July P, 1852
 Oear Editor:
 In view of the fact that you nave seen fit to make a front page story of the withholding of your July 12 issue of ko- diak Mirror from the mails but have given only what you saw fit, of the true facts con- nected herewith, 1 ask you to give the same publicity to this letter.
 In your item you stress the point that a five year old boy was involved. You know that the law does not designate an age limit on the individuals who are mentioned in con- nection with a raff1e. It is the rafle information that is for bidden in the mails-not the naming of an individual.
 You stated that the issue was withheld because Briggs thought a short item violated some Postal Laws and Regu- lations. You knew when you printed that item, that it vio- lated the mailing laws. Why didn't you tell your readers that you had a copy of the law in your office but chose to defy it? Why didn't you tell your readers that the Solicitor stated, "July 18th Kodiak Mirror may be dispatched AT SENDER'S RISK FOR ANY VIOLATION OF LAW IN- VOLVED", thereby relieving the Postmaster of responsl- bility for unlawful mailing of that particular issue but still holding you liable for fine or imprisonment or both.
 Why didn't you tell your readers that a year or two ago, something you had printed in your paper was sent in for an opinion and you were then told by the Solicitor that the item in question was not mailable and you were asked by him to write a letter stat ing if you intended to include such items in your paper in the future and that you wrote a letter stating that you cer- tainly did not intend to print anything that was against the law and that you would not do so again?
 Why didn't you tell your readers that you printed some things in your paper, shortly before July 4th, that were net mailable but rather than hold up the issue, the Post master let it go through there by making himself liable for fine and imprisonment, then sent the issue in question in for an opinion and was told by the Solicitor that it violated the law and was not mailable, , and that the Postmaster let you read this decision and told you that he would be forced to withhold further issues from the mails, pending
