Planned for the mature woman as well as for the young set, the fash- ion show had as one of its featured models, that “30 years ago I modelled for Goldstein's store, 25 years ago for Behrends, and now I am modelling for Stevens,”—and a stuning model she was, too.

Sylvia Lister, only teen-age model wore a 3-piece green corduroy cas- ual combination and a lovely yellow and blue net evening frock.

In her comments Mrs. McCormick said “Alaska is fortunate in having Dr. Philip Moore, orthopedic sur- geon, in charge of Mt. Edgecumbe, Miss Mary Jerome, supervisory nurse and Dr. Joseph Deisher. The children love and adore each one of them, which means a great deal for the welfare of the patients.” She said that a tribute should be paid Mrs. Sylva Zenger, board member of the ACCA who as sewing chai n does much of the sewing and nding necessary for the children in the chronic wards in Juneau; to Mrs. Frances Grant, hospital chairman, who assists in shopping for the children and mem- warfare.” hunters, trappers from the western and northern areas of Alaska who earn, their living— and at the same time maintain a vital watch—on ‘the very frontier of the North American continent, the 2,200 miles of ;ugged-oonltline along the Bering Sea and Arctic Ocean.
