Complimenting Miss Taylor whose approaching marriage is to be incentive of many parties t spring, the affair last night given at the home of Mrs, Haw worth where close to three d guests were assembled. Bright daffodils and greens formed a colorful background, and ivory candles were lit at the central table In keeping with the motif of the evening were the dainty d- painted bridal place cards and tal- lies made by Miss Palmer. Prize winners of the seven fables of bridge were Mrs, Harry I. Lucas, first; and Mrs. R. E. Robertson second. A guest prize was also given to Miss Taylor by the hostess Miss Taylor, who has many fri in Juneau where she is teacher the third grade at the Juneau ¢ School, is to sail southbound on the Princess Louise and will board the Empress of Russia at Vancouver She will travel to Manila by way of Hawaii where she will meet the many friends she made w teaching on exchange there ! year. From Hawaii, she will then proceed directly to Manila and will be married on July 2, the date of her arrival there. Miss Taylor and Mr. Hanson will remain for a time at Cebu, one of the most picturesque plantation dis- tricts in the Philippine Islands. Th will then make their home 7 Manila, where Mr. Hanson, a min- ing:engineer, has his headquarters OIL PRICES DROP TODAY Diesel oil, burner oil and stove oil per gallon prices were dropped one cent today by both the Standard Oil and Unicn Oil, accordingao of- ficials of those companies. - Diesel and burner oil dropped from 8 to 7 cents; stove oil from 10 cents to 9 cents. Stove oil for ships has dropped from 9': cents to 9 Diesel oil for ships has been dropped from 7% to 7. No, reason was given for the ade familiar—those of City Clerk—while giving general supervision to the other matters requiring the attention of the Mayor. Under this plan, he would delegate the City En- gineer to handle the Street, Sewer, Sidewalk and other ork which naturally is of an engineering nature, all of which, of course, comes under the general super- on of the Council. By this method a SAVING to the city of $2,400 a year would result as the salary of the City Clerk would be eliminated. $ In connection with the signing of checks, as is well known the city has a Finance Committee made up: of members of the Council which must pass on all expen- ditures of the city before payment is made.’ The Chair- man of the Finance Committee or Assistant City Clerk can be authorized to sign checks with the Mayor. The of of the City Clerk is the clearing house for all city business, thus the Mayor handling those W WC duties would be in closer touch with general business of the city and in a better position to direct its affairs efficiently and with dispatch. The modified “City Manager” plan as planned by the People’s Ticket means greater efficiency in the handling of Juneau's business. IT ELIMINATES NO PART OF THE AUTHORITY VESTED BY LAW IN CITY OFFICIALS OR GENERAL CONDUCT OF THE CITY'S AFFAIRS. It is solely a plan of arrangement to facili- tate the transaction of city business, efficiently and effectively. : On this platform, we seek support at next Tues- day's municipal election.

Also yester- day afternoon the boat Three Deuces, owned by Art Bergren, was out for a spin. Unfortunately enough, Mary Joyce and the Three Deuces arrived at approximately the same time and (he same place in the middle of the harbor while Mary was taking off.( Damage to the plane was insignif. icant. A wing brushed the bow of ‘Three Deuces, ripped a hole in the fabric and cracked a wing rib. No| damage was done to the boat. b Local aviators marveled today in surveying the damaged wing, howi Miss Joyce came out as fortunately as she did. “Had the bow gouged a fraction | of an inch deeper, the wing would have been torn from the plane with | perhaps sad, results for Mary,” some- | one said. 3 | Charming lady—charmed life. | EXTENSION CLUB » STUDIES FABR]CS{ Meeting at the home of Mrs. D, M. | Dishaw, members of the University | of Alaska Extension Club of Auk| Bay gathered for discussion of fabr-| ics, yesteday aftenoon, studying and testing the quality of woolen and| silk materials. | The club has made a comprehen- | sive study of upholstery work in the| past month, with Du Wyane Burna- by, upholsterer, in charge, | The next meeting of the club will| be held at the home of Mrs. Chester | Ellis on April 20, Present, in addi- tion to Mrs. Florence Syverud, Dis-| trict Home Demonstration .Agent, were Mrs, G.
