The fact that the resolution failed | by only six votes—270 for the resolution and 144! against—indicates a tremendous swing from dry to If six Literary note: It is rumored that the political statistical section of the 1933 edition of the World Almanac will be very importantly revised, All-Alaska Dinners.

Sych was the remark made by an Alaskan recently, Heretofore the present House has given dry majori- The observation offers no little room for thought. The great swing from dry to wet was due, of cour: to the overwhelming wet majority in the National election. It was thought that the swing would be strong enough to carry two-thirds of the House, but it failed by a close margin.

I'm his wife.” “Without our consent!” Mrs, Dawn appealed desperately to her husband. “You hear that, Eric?
