Offhand she remembered the !names of only ten of the dog: Wolf, the chairman; Jack, Duce, Silver, Scotty, Captain, Husky, Rock, Rye (Rock and Rye get it?) and Smoky. The eleventh she couldn't recall. John Doe Mutt, you'll have |to think of him. At any rate, the pooches will presently be renting out to Sun Valley guests at so mnch (1) per mile, (2) per hour, (3) per | bark. Miss Joyce will go along as sort of a human taximeter. { Miss Joyce is no stranger to the tourist business herself. From May until December she operates Taku Lodge, forty-two miles north of Juneau. The lodge can accommodate | ‘wenty-five and prices start at $7 per day. | The Union Pacific Railroad, ac- cording to its publicity department, | offers nothing but the best to Sun Valley spenders, and in Miss Joyce's dogteam the guests will get a slice | of the real McCoy. Last year the; | young woman entered the same| team in the Grand Alaska Sweep- | stakes at Fairbanks and once she made a 1,000-mile journey, behind | the canines. | | She’s also famous for having pick- | ed the famous Father Hubbard off a rock in the middle of the Taku | River in the summer of 1936. Father | Hubbard had been wrecked there| and had quite reconciled himself to | an early death, either from drown- | ing or starvation, when Miss Joyce came swinging down the river with a boatload of $10-a-day tourists. | Alaskans are traditionally suppos- ed to say “Mush!” to their dogs to ! start them, but Miss Joyce says “All right, Wolf"—or “Let’s go.” She says Alaskans stopped say “Mush” years ago. Fiction writers haven’t heard about it yet, however. | ——.——— MOREPILOTS MAY BE A GOOD THING (Continued from Page One) | program is measured day by day in headlines it will be a very inter- esting matter to watch whether the | general public is sufficiemtly! aldrmed about the need of hemis- | pherical defense against ovefse ‘xlirf]ert.& to steel itself to the sacr fice.

By BETTY CLARKE AP Feature Service Writer Fat, pudgy upper arms are the source of embarassment to many a woman when she dons a sleevless gown No matter how trim her hips, how slender her waist, if the upper are pudzy they create the she is fat all over. But if a woman is really determin- ed she can get rid of those bulges. A few simple exercises will do the trick if she performs them with reasonable regularity. For instance: 1. Swinging on parallel bars is very effective, since the chief mus- cles brought into play are the tri- ceps (large muscle at the back of the upper arm) and the upper front and back muscles of the torso. 2. Extend the arms at shoulder level, keeping the palms of the ands down. Inscribe twenty to thirty fairly large circles, making sure the should revolve in their sockets, (The exercise won't be ef- fective unless the shoulder muscles do the work.) Turn the palms up and repeat 3. Massage the upper arms.

He claims it hurts him. But he can make himself perfectly ease by grasping the bedstead at above his head and elevating his |body until the only things which ! touch are his feet, and his hands i where they grasp the bedstead bar. In this strained suspended state he is comfortable.
