costly thy habit as thy
purse can buy, but not expressed
in fancy; rich, not guady; fol
the apparel oft proclaims the
man." So the master playwright
expressed one of his ideas in
Hamlet.
Perhaps following through on
this sage advice has led Home
makers to concentrate on the
problems of being well dressed
for the first three months of the
New Year will be spent on how
to choose correct designs for be.
comingneSs and how to make a
garment fit.
Miss Lavonia Hilbert, clothing
specialist of the University of
Maryland, has this to say about
a "ready-made." "The collar or
neck edge should fit closely at
the base of the neck but shouldn't
be tight. Neither should the
collar ride up or stand away
from the body"
Check the shoulder seam,
which should be right along the
shoulder line unless the gar
ment has a yoke or unusual
design feature. Shoulder pads
are used for a smooth shoulder
line and to suit the fashion of
the season.
Examine the seam for the
sleeve or armseye = if it is a
set-in sleeve see that the seam
follows exactly where the
shoulder and arm come together.
If the shoulder line extends over
the end of the shoulder, make
certain n a the alterations
needed will not effect the cor.
rect grain lines of the garment.
Take a look at the sleeves of
the garment. Do they allow
ease of movement - stretching,
bending the arms or moving
around without feeling that the
sleeves are too tight. Check the
darts or fullness at the elbow.
They should come at the elbow
rather than above or below it.
Moving the arms in different
positions will tell if the garment
is comfortable at this point.
Does the waistline coincide
with that of the wearer? And
if the skirt fits smoothly, mi
lady's all set with a dress that
fits as if made for herself.
Mrs. Paul T. Culbertson, Jr.,

the OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES group
at the January meeting. Women
interested in joining the group

Mrs. Hunter Davidson was
hostess at the annual Christmas
meeting, assisted by Miss Ella
McAtee, Mrs. William ]. Selby,
Mrs. Benoni Allnutt and Mrs.
Russell Roberts, president. The
special Christmas project of
giving foods and clothing to a
deserving family was completed.
Continuing in 1855 with the
toy project for Children's Hos
pital, this group made plans for
getting them ready in February.

out that if the cost of mainten- ance of these roads runs around $1,0OO a year-it might well cost each and every farmer that much to take care of the roads them selves. "As I see it., he said you wonder if you can legally aban- don these roads our point of view is can you morally refuse them.

T have been in agriculture 20 years" he said, land have never seen an effort to put damper on the develop ment of agriculture like this.
 Tn addition to Ghiglione, other ARC officials present were: M. (. Zimmerman, district engineer, L. A.

Also present was Irwin Reed, territorial commissioner of roads from Juneau.

ed valuation of the farms invol- we'd in the road question would run to one quarter million dol lars that abandonment of these roads would tend to lessen taxes derived from the property. He stated, that in his estimation Griffith road is a public road.
 John Hornung, longtime val ley resident, said he could not purchase equipment to maintain Waldon road should ARC decide to abandon it, as did. all farmers questioned.
 Emil LaWalterS stated he knew ARC built the roads in fact, he said, the ARC requested farm CTS to move their fences back from the road so they could bet ter clear the snow. These roads have a definite value to the de- veiopment of the Matanuska Val ley area, he said.
 Roland Grover said he bought his farm in 1851 with the under standing that a public road, kept up by the ARC, went to the farm. We have been, and still are, com Commission to keep this road plete1y dependent upon the Road clear for us we feel that as well as being put to a great dis !, advantage if our road were not maintained by the road colnmis- sion the value of our farm would also be lessened a great deal'. Al Brooks pointed out that the I road known as Brooks road has required or received very little maintenance. Compared to what we pay in, in taxes, the very small amount it costs to maintain .this road is very little", he said. ''What other benefit do we get from our federal taxes?" he ques toned. Testimony brought out at that time showed that the sewer outfall system is reached by the same road.

the M. V. F. c. A., pointed out the roads were constructed prior to erection of homes, thus forcing building sites to be in their pres ent location, Abandonment now creates real hardship to present owners. He pointed out that the Coop, Standard and Union Ool and various trucking firms face loss in business because of in- ability to gain entry to the farms in pursuit of normal business. Since no alternative has been of fered by the ARC to their pro- posed plan, it must be assumed that the present stub road system is the only satisfactory one. Therefore abandonment is not in the public interest,"
 Charles Wilson, territorial con- servationist, pointed out that there are 49,OOO acres of suitable land for agriculture cultivation
 less than 10000 is now de- veloped. Tt looks like poor time to start retrenching"- he said.

This road has been mair- tained by the ARC and we took into account when we bought the place we feel this road, as well as all others in the valley should be improved and fully maintained by the ARC, which is the agency set up by the govern ment for this. purpose, and for which we pay taxes.
 Jim Wilson, commissioner of agriculture pointed out that many of these so-called stub-roads are destined in time to become artery roads, as farming develops.
 LeRoy Hamann said there are many reasons why this abandon ment will create hardships on the valley and to all farms affected. Some of the farms are Grade A milk producers and must have roads to get milk to market :. other farms are preparing to en- ter the Grade A field others raise crops that must get to mar ket children must get to sch ool !. closed roads in the winter might cost lives some of these roads can be extended to open more valley land".
