Military Game
Wardens In Alaska
ELMENDORF AIR FORCE
BASE, July 30 (AMNS)—Cooper
ation with federal agencies in the
conservation of fish and wild life
may be a new and unusual duty
for stateside air force command
ing officers, but to the military in
Alaska it’s an old story, Lt. Gen.
W. E. Kepner, commander-in
chief of the Alaskan Command,
commented today.
The general had reference to
the recent publication of an Air
Force regulation calling on com
manding officers for a positive
program of game development
and management. The Alaskan
Command, encompassing all
Army, Navy and Air Force in the
territory, has long had such a pro
gram, Gen. Kepner pointed out.
Military game wardens are non
commissioned military officers
whose experience and background
qualify them for the job. They
hold full appointments in the De
partment of the Interior as en
forcement agents of the U. S. Fish
and Wild Life Service. Being
military men, however, they are
paid only by the military, accord
ing to their rank. I
Being fully appointed Fish and
Wild Life enforcement agents,
these wardens have jurisdiction
over civilians as well as military
personnel anywhere in Alaska.
Mr. Holger Larsen, head of en
forcement agents for F and WL
Service in the Anchorage area,
has expressed his appreciation of
the friendly relationship between
his office and the military.
Air Force Headquarters iii
Washington won’t have to worry -
about its new conservation regu
lation in Alaska. Neither will the
Army or Navy have occasion to be
harassed by such matters in the
territory. The Alaska Command
is seeing to it that military men
are conservation-minded men.

FOR "FRUSTRATED" WRITERS
> BALTIMORE, (/P)—What’s the
word for the anatomical spot
where a lady’s skirt is the tight
est?
“I’ve got the word (it’s ‘caliipy
gian’> right on the tip of my
tongue but can’t recall it.’
Like all of us, Dr. J. E. Schmidt
has been stuck in this situation.
The dictionary is little, if any,
help. If you know the word you
don’t have to look it up except |
for spelling. Dr. Schmidt got vexed
enough to do something about it.,
He started a filing system o‘f
cards neatly arrange alphabetical
ly—by meaning instead of spell
ing. For instance: Ape, cry of
gibber; bettle, sound of—drone.
Dr. Schmidt, a physician, has
140,000 such words or meanings
and is going to publish them in
a book titled “What’s the Word,”
for frustrated writers.

Premium Business Is Hundred Years Old.
1851-1951
A century of premiums, that
extra something you get in addi
tion to the original product, has
grown from highly colored lith
ographed picture cards (the
earliest 1851, shown above) to
a business in itself where every
conceiveable type of article can
be acquired.
It is estimated by the Premium
Advertising Association of Ameri
ca that about one billion dollars
is spent annually for merchandise
used as premiums in sales promo
tion. This included about 30 per
cent of all U S. made ehinaware; Id per cent of the enamelware, and
10 per cent of the aluminum pots and pans. In addition to this is a
wide variety of especially designed jewelry, unusual rings and novel
ties for the children. The fact is there is something available in most
premium promotions for every man, woman or child in the country
There is hardly a person in the country who has not sent in a box
top from his favorite product along with a few pennies or even dollars
for some article of value. The best part of the whole matter is, he
is assured of getting full value for whatever money he spends due to
the efforts of a group representing all phases of the industry—the
Premium Association.
NTot all premiums are of the box top type. There are large stores in
many cities such as the ore shown above, which do not ha•. v cash regis
ters where all merchandise is purchased by coupons saved bv *re
customers. There are prize contests, combination sales, dealer or si." s
men’s awards, and many mere ... all of them mean one flint:—
“something extra” for somebody.
Who buys premiums as a rule—usually the most critical purchasers,
housewives and children.
