THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, FRIDAY, APRIL 17 1936. , a8 of New York or Chicago. Perhaps the prospects may not be so alluring, but i8fi't part of it our fault for not selling them on their own land before they seek other fields?

MR. SHAW’S STILL AROUND. Can it be that the sharp tongue of George Bernard Shaw is losing its edge and mellowing as he approach- ~ es his 80th milestone in life? Recently in Miami he 1s d_fo the reputed to have said, referring to a tree planted there as a memorial to him: “By the time a tree would grow up, the world would have forgotten who Bernard Shaw was.” But no. We learn from an interview that the old few words, the playwright clipped back: “I don't say a few words. I start out with 5,000.” He then continued to tell his interviewers, in the familiar Shavian style: “You have a good President, but the bad Constitution is getting the best of him Chuck it in the ocean. You're making it into rags with amendments.” Then he described himself in this fashion: “It am an Irishman, a teetotaler, a fanatic, a humorist, a fluent liar, a social Democrat, a lecturer and a de- bater, a lover of music, a fierce opponent of the pres- | weddings today. Happiness is fore-' g ent status of women, and an insister on the seriousness | told for those who hold love above | the unmarried woman to the mar- of art.” The fact is the venerable Mr. Shaw is just a shrewd old man hiding behind his whiskers the knowledge that personality and quick wit gets in the headlines and keeps G. B. S. before the world. That he still has the undulled wit is seen in his rejoinder when an international interviewer recently told him: “I have met nearly all the crowned heads of Eu- rope, and they all admire your works.” Shaw flashed back: “I am glad to see the level of royal intelligence is rising.” Perhaps Mr. Hoover can find the reply to his oft | expressed fear of inflation in the Illinois election where | SATURDAY, APRIL 18, 1936 Conflicting planetary aspects are | discerned in the horoscope for to- day, according to astrology.

The stars smile on modistes and milliners who are again to be | sought, as standardized clothing is avoided by modish persons. This should be a lucky day for starting on long railway journeys.

The indictment charges that on August 21, 1913, Krause mailed a letter to Juneau which contained a mortgage made out in the name of George Hartman and signed Y. Yammamoto. The mortgage was for $2,000 and covered real estate in that the mortgage was a forged instrument, concocted with inten- tion to defraud Yammamoto heirs. At one-thirty this afternoon, after each side had exhausted all its challenges, jury was secured for the secend trial of Edward Krause, who was charged with kidnaping Wil W. Boyrstun, H. S.
