SKA CIRCULATION GUARANTEED TO BE LARGER A AN THAT OF ANY OTHER PUBLICATION. RECORD. ANOTHER AVIATION The failure of Lieut. Alford J. Williams to induce the American seaplane Mercury to perform eliminated the United States from the Schneider Cup races. However, it is generally admitted that the English plane would have won in any event. The English plane made better than 328 miles an hour in the contest, and it is claimed that she about 360 miles. The has a maximum speed of that had been claimed for the American plane wi 318 miles an hour. That is a lot better than a snail's pace but it would have left the plane far English easily dis- | behind in the cup races. T posed of the Italian competition. However, while we should have liked to have seen the American in the contest where it might have taken its beating in a sportsmanlike manner, we cannot be denied the grim satisfaction of plainly confessing that we were never within reach of winning. And we cannot blame Lieut. ‘Williams for ng that his Government save the expense of shipping the Mercury across the Atlantic with a crew of men to fly and care for the craft when he w that only defeat would result. The speed set by the British plane is almost beyond comprehension. It was equivalent to a three- hour hop from Juneau to Seattle. The speed was such that if maintained it would have left hours to spare in a dawn to dark trans-Atlantic flight. | It would mean a little more than eight hours from San Francisco to New York. In spite of all the accidents and casualties aerial navigation has made phenomenal pro It is not a wonder that the world has become air- minded. Aviation is the theme of the hour, and there is no longer much doubt but that within a decade or two it will have as great ‘or greater influ- ence upon the life of people as the automobile K American beauty parlors in 1928, each spending ap- | | has had. | e scie | | DEVELOPING AN OLD THEORY ‘ | The suggestion of former Attorney-General George | W. Wickersham that the Federal Government con- | cern itself with interstate traffic in lquor and smug- | gling across the border while the retail liquor problem be left to the State Government is not new. That | method of procedure was suggested several years ago by the late Falcon Joslin of Alaska. However, Mr. Joslin, who was devoted to the principle of State Rrights, was unable to get the ear of the country. If he had lived he would have seen those in high places take up his plans and carry them into effect. It is apparent that the swing toward bureaucracy and over-strong Federal Government has spent it- self, and the reaction is again toward the simple life and government by the people who are on the ground. ISLANDER DI ER RECALLED. The discovery of thirteen skeletons on the Island- er wreck is a gruesome reminder of the disaster which occurred off Douglas Island August 15, 1901. At that time the Islander was the flagship of the ss this year. | { |accurately the 1928 volume of the beauty-parlor s THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE.'MONDAY, SEPT. 16, Canadian Pacific Alaska fleet. is believed, a short time after [ while bound’ from She went down, it striking an iceberg Skagway to the South’ with a |officers of the Canadian Pacific Railway Company who ' investigated the matter at the time, believe lthe gold on board the vessel to be much less than {the amount which romance and legend have fix- ed. The probabilities are that the gold on the ship| jdid not cxceed a quarter of a million if, mdw-(l‘ it was as high as that. H | However, it might be for the general good that! |people have credited reports .that there was a | much larger sum on board, for the explorations that re in progress have demonstrated that it is pos- sible for d: to work at a much lower | than formerly was believed possible. And the work | lin progress there promises the likelihood of the re- [ covery of the remains of ‘those who disappeared | with the ill-fated craft 28 years ago. depth | Mrs. Willebrandt admits that the -Prohibition sentiment in the country is not as strong now as it once was. She thinks, however, that the ‘majority [ol' the people are still for Prohibition.. She con- fdmuns the Anti-Saloon League for giving too much | attention to political activities and too little to| education. She thinks, apparently, that the organi- | | zation has outlived its usefulness. | | i S RO M ) l Frederic R. Coudert, who was commended high- ly by Justice Crain of the Supreme Court, his oppon- ent in the race for the New York District Attorney- !shix)‘ has courteously returned the compliment. He |recently declared that Justice Crain has a long {record for efficiency and integrity as a jurist and a lawyer—one of which any lawyer could be justly proud. Rabbits for Russia. (New York Times.) While Canadians are experimenting with im- ported herds of reindeer for meat supplies, Russia is turning to rabbit-raising. Meat has been scarce in Russia and farmers hesitate to invest in live- stock which may be taxed or even confiscated by the Government. The demand for more meat for Soviet workers has been so great that the prob- lem was considered at a recent conference in Mos- |cow of Government representatives and agents of | farmers’ organizations. Since rabbits multiply rapidly and will eat many kinds of common foods, it was decided to establish an oficial rabbit farm. Three million rabbits, raised from imported breeding stock, will be placed with farmers. Instructive pamphlets and motion picture reels are to be distributed to show what an easy | business it is to raise rabbits, and how quickly the | profits roll in. In France rabbit is prepared with many appe- tizing sauces, and Ostend rabbits are considered particularly fine. German Hasenpfeffer is famous, and American rabbit pie is a savory and satisfying dish. Ru n cooks will no doubt discover ways | of preparing rabbit meat which will appeal to the| national palate. If the rabbit crop comes up to expectations, | it is planned to establish factories in which the [mom will be canned, salted, made into sausages yand prepared as a concentrated soup. | Beauty. | (Bangor Commercial.) ‘ Sixty million .women and children patronized | proximately $6.50, or a total of $390,000,000. It re- quired 170,000 men and women, including the out- put of several hundred beauty-culture schools, to serve them. Strange how human customs and beliefs change! It was just a few years ago that the use of cosmetics was thought by a large part of the populace to be vanity, if not downright immorality. In those dark ages the hairdresser’s duties were limited to treat- ments for falling hair and dandruff, her feminine | patrons feeling perfectly capable of “doing up” their |own more or less flowing and abundant locks to perfection. Had it been possible then to predict trade the good villagers would have set nbour.' ‘putting things in order for the coming of the | | judgment day. How different is the public reaction today to this statement of the cost of beautifying the Am- erican woman. With the exception of a few old- fashioned irreconcilables and bluenoses, the genera- tion, irrespective of sex, looks upon this expenditure | of labor and money as a good investment.

Miss Rosellen Monagle, who was a close second, received $50 and a large bouquet of lovely flowers from the Fair Association. Both young ladies worked hard for the award, Miss Monagle start- ing to collect votes on August 28, and Miss Paul starting to obtain her votes on July 27. Miss Paul is a striking blonde while Miss Monagle is a striking brunette. Martin Presents Queen R. B. Martin, Manager of the Fair, made a short address just be- fore the crowning of the queen and saild: “Ladies and gentlemen. I ask your attention for just one mo- ment while I crown our Queen of the Harvest. “Several young ladies entered this contest a month ago and these two, Miss Xenia Paul and Miss Rosellen Monagle, stayed with the contest until its conclusion with credit to themselves and with honor to South- eastern Alaska. Especially credit is due to the loser of this contest as she entered a week or more later than the winner. “I take pleasure in crowning Miss Xenia Paul, Queen of the Harvest. I ask you to pay particular at- tention to her crown which was made by Mrs. Eggersgluess of Sitka and contains strands of matured wheat, oats, and barley grown in Southeastern Alaska, and is truly a work of art and each one of you, who have the opportunity to examine it, will attest its beauty. “In addition to the honor I wish to present to you a material re- ward for your work in our interest which consists of one hundred dol- lars, and I trust that you will ap- preciate the same in using it to your very best advantage. Loser Is Thanked “Miss Monagle, I wish to thank you for your work in behalf of Southeastern Alaska again, and wish to reward you for your labor | by presenting you with this reward of $50. In addition to this, I take great pleasure in presenting you this bouquet of beautiful flowers which was donated to our commit- tee for this purpose by Mr. Leivers.” The judges who served through- out the four days of the Fair were: | Mrs. Charles E. Harland, Chairman, Mrs. L. P. Dawes. Mrs. J. F. Mul- len, Mrs. E. J. White, E. J. White, C. H. Flory, E. A. Eggersgluess, Sitka, M. L. Merritt and J. P. Anderson. Other Awards Made A pair of darned stockings, the first exhibit of its kind to appear at the Fair for the past. eight years, was sent to Juneau by Ella Yeomans, of Skagway, and received first prize. An award of merit was given Mrs. McRae, of Haines, for a tur- key exhibited at the Fair. This is the first time that a turkey has been exhibited and shows conclus- ively that these fowl can be suc- cessfully raised in Southeastern Al- | aska. Mrs. McRae has a drove of | 100 turkeys in Haines and they are healthy and fat and are ready | for the Thanksgiving market. Dale Cowan and Mr. McRae re- celved a special award of merit and a prize for cucumbers which were raised out-of-doors and not under glass in a hot-house. A woolen crib blanket was award- ed the lightest baby in the Baby Show at the Fair. This gift was a donation of,George Brothers. !'v————-—-————~————§! PROFESSIONAL v Helene W. L.
