Marlene Dietrich made her
professional debut shortly
after the first World War,
she has never relinQuished
the title of Hollywood's most
glamorous star. And as q
tribute to her ability to ig-
more birthdays. she has
signed a new seven-year con-
tract with a Las Vegas night
club.
When I visiter her, she
had just finished preparing

why it is that some people
eat all they want and never

on the digestive system you
are born with. It's like order

Is IL Worth II?
ITS not easy" Miss Die

Marlene laughed. We'll.
I run around on them. And
that gives them plenty Of

This is important to any
part Of your body. You have
to use it to keep it in good
condition.
"She knows more about
makeup and lighting than
any actress in the business"
o crew member Of her last
movie told me recently. "Her
theory is that the eye can be
fooled with highlights and
shading. but this type Of cor
receive makeup is effective
only when 1t is so skillfully
applied as to be impercep-
tible.
But" Marlene said. re-
ferring to the illusion of
beauty, charm is more i'm
portant than anything"
What does charm mean to
you?" I asked.
A Sense Of HumOr
Miss Dietrich asked her
secretary for q dictionary.
"Mr. Webster calls it an in
definable quality Of delight"
she read aloud. She looked
at me with laughing eyes as
though to say. Even Web
ster calls it indefinable."

unteered. with egotisms it's
impossible. And you can't
have charm with over
emphasis or exaggeration.
"Exaggeration Of the hui
man figure is one example, :"
she went on. To-day the
beauty of line has been lost
to the tape measure. In
other times you couldn't reach
your goal with mere meas
urementS. And almost every
thing in this country is lead
ing women away from ele-
gance.
1.-The standard seems to be:
How fast can something be
outmoded? This constant
buying and not liking what
you have! Women end up
with a closet full Of clothes
and a feeling they have Moth
ing to wear. And all this talk
about separates! Wearing
this with that. The main pur-
pose has been sidetracked.
They will tell you they can't
afford a good dress when &C
tually it's more economical"
AS Miss Dietrich has q
world Of admirers. I asked
her advice on how one at
tracts the opposite sex.
"a girl shouldn't try too
hard. If the boys at school
don't like her, she shouldn't
place too much Importance
on this, because young boys
often have very bad taste.
Men don't like affectation
or artificiality or an overtalk-
alive woman. II she doesn't
enjoy listening, then he's not
the right man for her. / think
we should be different things
to different people. It's bor-
ing to be always the same"

Cooking Contest | Winners Give
 Favorite Recipes

Although the first King Crab Festival is past, and Kodiak has claimed her rightful title of King Crab Capitol of the World it is fitting that the recipes of the crab cooking contest winners be shared.
 Because each entry in the con- test held at the Elks Club last Sat urday noon tasted so good, the judges found it rather difficult to reach decision. A taste of this, a bite of that, and then another taste by each judge gave first place to Mrs. Louise Coon for her entry of Grapefruit and Crab Sal ad in the "cold dish" category.
 Mrs. La Rue Troyer placed first with her entry of Crab-Bread Cas- serole, hot dish.
 Second place was awarded un- der ''cold dishes" to Mrs. Sue Me Allister for her Picked Crab, while Mrs. Ann Cichoski placed second with Crab Croquettes as a hot dish. .
 Hot Baked Crab Legs in Shell won third place for Mrs. Anna Mueller, and Mrs. Helen Stock ards cold Nodded Crab and Aspic Salad took third.
 Judges for the event were Busi- ness and Professional Women's Club members Mrs. Ruth Torger- son, Mrs. Dorothy Haag and Mrs. Mary Serum.
 The winners have graciously given us their permission to pub- fish their winning recipes, so this week we give you those of Mrs. Coon and Mrs. Troyer. The four other recipes will be published in the next two issues of the Mirror.
 Mrs. Coon, wife Of Mayor Mer Till Coon, has many other inter- ests other than cooking. She has two sons that keep her rather busy; sewing, basket weaving, mu- sic and Cub Scout work all take much of her time. In addition to all this, she is a member of the

Helpful Hints on Transplanting

Over-anxious gardeners are ad yised to slow down slightly in their plans for getting their plants into the open air.
 Harold Pillsbury, University ot Alaska Extension Service hortH culturist, lists these suggestions for the hardening off, period, be- fore actually putting the plants in the garden.
 1. While still indoors, withhold water to about the willing stage.
 2. Place the flats of plants out doors out of the direct sunlight 4 the day is clear.
 3. Protect the plants from strong wind for the first 2 or 3 days.
 4. Continue to water only spar ingly, but do not allow the plants to wilt.
 5. Do not return the plants to the house or greenhouse unless it is necessary to protect them from freezing.
 6. After a few days, the leaves will turn slightly reddish color This is natural consequence aE the hardening off process.
 7. After the plants are in flats, slice through between the rows oI the plants with a sharp knife. Dc this day or more before trans planting, to allow the several roots to heal and send out branck roots.
 8. A week is usually long enough to allow the plants to ai- just themselves to the new enviI> onment before they are actually taken out of the flats and placed into the permanent location.
 During the actual transplant operation, he said, these rules will help achieve the best results for the Alaskan gardener.
 l. Water the soil thoroughly the day before you remove thK plants from the flat so that the soil will adhere to the roots. 2. Plan to do the transplanting on cloudy day or in the evening if necessary.
 3. In hot weather. shade the plants with paper cones, cans, shingles, or boards driven into the ground on the south and wind ward sides. A wind will wilt these new seedlings pust as badly as the sun.
 4. Dig the hole large enough to accommodate the roots without crowding.
 5. Set the seedlings of cabbage, cauliflower, and onions slightly deeper than they were in the
