PEERLESS BREAD AT ALL GROCERS Old papers for sale at Empire thce plete the cast of superb actors each | of whom gives an outstanding per- formance in a play that demands the best. The frankly provocative theme of “Death Takes a Holiday” concerns the problem of Death taking a three-day holiday that he may | study life, learn why men love living and fear the eternal part- ing. He comes to earth as a gay, dashing, romantic lover, enthus- | astically taking part in all of life’s | pastimes and games. But nothing intrigues him. | He saves love till the last, until |almost the end of his holiday. He finds no difficulty in meeting wom- len who offer him love, but finds no love that is unselfish, eternal, until his holiday is almost over. Then, in a series of dramatic cir- cumsbanees he finds an enduring |love, and, in the arms of a beau- | tiful girl, learns all that is beau- tiful in life. But he, like any| mortal man, must depart — and dreads the thought of leaving be- | hind the life he found so rupturous. “Death Takes a Holiday” hasi been rated high as one of the beSL‘w | 1934 pictures.

At the Western Federation, held recently in the states, Mrs. Hansen, the only Al- aska delegate present, said she was privileged to speak before several hundred women. She spoke of Mrs. Grace Morrison Poole, General Federation president, as a person of dynamic personality and a wealth of information. New Clubs Three new clubs, Sitka, Homér and Hyder, have joined the Alaska Federation this year, according to Mrs. Hansen. The Federation is working for the welfare and rights of women in the Territory. The present community property law is based on the old Oregon statute of 1848. Today there is no child labor law in Alaska, except the NRA- regulation; there is no eight hour law ‘for women. The Pioneet Home for women is another pro- ject in view.
