pour as quart size.
6. Children can handle the half-gallon
container with safety, whereas the
weight and size of the gallon container
makes it difficult and even unsafe for
small hands to handle.
Z. The soft, pliable, yet strong, plastic
handle molds gently into the hand.
Allows comfortable carrying, no cutting

It's fun to be experimental
with the green's and other vege-
tables you select for the base of
Farmers salad. This time Of
year there's a plentiful variety
available at prices to fit a tight
food budget. You're missing
superb eating enjoyment if you
limit yourself to just a few.
The vegetables In the pic
tured salad are lettuce (head
and leaf, celery, green onions,
cucumberS, radishes, carrots,
and watercreSs.
There are any number Of
others that will go equally well
since cottage cheese is mouth
watering with a wide variety Of
foods of contrasting flavor.
If you don't happen to have
much cottage cheese on hand,
you can still achieve the pleas
ing taste of Farmers salad.
Just mix a little cottage cheese
with the French dressing you're
going to use on tossed salad.
The amount of cottage cheese
may be varied to your liking.

Take a look around our town! Don't YOU see
all the signs of a strong economy? How about
that mechanic down the street who lust opened
his W garage, the neighbor who's sending his

Bonds? The fact is that all over America more
people are saving more money than ever before

Americans own nearly 43 billion dollars in u. S.
Savings Bonds! Why? Because they're one of
the worlds safest, surest investments-and one
OF the easiest ways to save ever devised!
Payroll Savings is painless sowing!
The way to save for Bonds regularly and auto
ma1couy is through the Payroll Savings Plan.

Present State EIks Association Grew From Small Group In 1947

The meeting here of the Alaska State Elks Association marks the twelfth convention of that group since 1t was first begun in 1947. It Is, however, the first convention of the State group.
 There were only three lodges in Alaska who first met to form an association. These were Anchor age, Fairbanks and Cordova. The following year the constitution and bylaws were drawn up at the Cor dova convention. These were adopted in a convention held at Mt. Mckinley in 1949. That same year Kodiak Lodge No. 1772 and Seward Lodge No. 1773 were formed. The lodges quickly rati- fled the constitution and the As sociation, which was known as the Alaska West, was brought into be- ing in July, 1949.
 The two following years a con-  yention was held at Seward, in 1850 and at Kodiak in 1851. The later convention was held Tn the Spring and was followed by con- vention at Anchorage in November of the same year Conventions have been held each following year since. Over the wears. an af+arnr,@ was made to make the organiza> tion an al,State group. This was accomplished in the past few years, until now the Association Is made up of twelve lodges, and includes Juneau Lodge No. APO; Skagway Lodge No. 431; Anchorage Lodge No. 1851; Ketchikan Lodge No. 1429; Cordova Lodge No. 1483; Fairbanks Lodge No. 1851; Wran- gell Lodge No. 1895; Petersburg
Kodiak mirror., 1959-09-26

Lodge No. 1515; Sitka Lodge No. 1862; Kodiak Lodge No. 1772; Sew ard Lodge No. 1773; and Palmer Lodge No. 1842.
 The emphasis in each individual lodge is on charity Charitable and other projects are pushed by the State Association. Through it the lodges are able to offer worth while scholarships to deserving students, assist in blood bank, and carry on work among the youth of the State, and cooperate with the Grand Lodge in the work of the National Foundation, the charitable outlet of the Grand Lodge. The main emphasis of the Association is its cerebral palsy project program, which all the lodges support. Last year they con- tributed more than $38,OOO. See elsewhere for separate report on the cerebral palsy work.
 It is thus apparent, when a group of Elks gather in convention, their days are not all spent in play. They have much to show each year

DOG TRAVEL BY PLANE
 AND TRAIN
By Bob Bartos Prominent Dog Authority

There'll be many a dog trav. cling by plane and train this es~%-.~S. Whether he accom- panies his owner or solos, it's well to know in advance some of the regulations pertaining to dog travel.

partment or bedroom. With any other accommodations, he'll travel in the baggage car as excess baggage or be checked through on your ticket. Don't feel too sorry for your four legged baggage. You can visit him as often as you like and take him for walks at stops. Find out from the conductor ahead of time which are the longest stops and plan your walks accordingly.
 Most airlineS let your dog travel with you as excess bag gage in a special crate rented from the airlineS.
 You can ship your dog by air freight at less cost. However you'll have to make Yeserva- ton ahead of time and often ship him we'll in advance of your own flight to make sure he's there when you arrive. You may have to supply your own crate, although many air lines now have shipping crates available for rent. Railway Ex. press Is another less expensive means of shipping your dog. But if the train trip takes more than 24 hours, shipping by air may suit you better.
 Feeding Tip: You must sup ply your pets food when he is travelling alone by plane or train. It will be easier for wfo- ever is responsible for his feed- ing if it's prepared dog food such as FriskieS in either the canned or dry form.

few people realize that Uncle Sam S

That out Of this astronomical sum

And if the families Of these re

Like the normal federal budget,
this vast outlay is expected to be
exceeded slightly by receipts-there-
by providing a slight surplus.
Whether this forecast proves cor

the damage to the nations economy

from the steel strike.
Subject to this qualification. the
