But it is probable that with the genuine interest being shown by both the United States and Canada in the venture we will see the International Highway extended from Hazelton, B.

But it is still good advice to be careful. Only buck deer may be taken, and the warning of the officials, though trite is still sound— “DON'T SHOOT UNTIL YOU CAN SEE THE HORNS!" No one needs a deer so urgently as to take chances on shooting just for luck, and then find out the mov- ing object was another hunter. Let's keep Alaska’s woods a safe place to hunt. If hunters must take chances, let them take them elsewhere, not in Alaska. “ALASKA AS H(C With two conventions coming north next year— the National Editorial. Association and the District Rotary Conference—Alaska is gaining attention at a meeting place. Commenting on the forthcoming Ro- essions, the Seattle Post-Intelligencer under the “Alaska As Host,” makes the point as follows: Delegates from Washington, Oregon, Brit- ish Columbia and Alaska have picked Juneau as the focal point of the Pacific Northwest regional conference of International Rotary next year. Rotary clubs of Ketchikan, Alaska, and Prince Rupert, B. C., will join with the Ju- neau Rotarians in playing host. It is a pleasing instance of cooperation in hospitality across international borders—the same sort of friendly spirit that Rotary has displayed world-wide. And the fact that Alaska gets a regional convention is worthy of note. As time goes on—as air service supple- ments sea service, and as the eventual inter- national highway makes it possible for Ameri- can tourists to drive their own vehicles to a new summer playground, Alaska should have not merely regional but national conventions. All honor to the Rotarians for setting the precedent! tar; title It's VERY SMART RIGHT NOW to make your choice fr to be an when it comes to CHRISTMAS CARDS! is not too early om the attractive and interesting selection we have to show you.
