Of This and That
By BETHA DIGREE
We have not decided whether ft
was deliberately done or accidental
that one page of the classified sec
tion of an Anchorage daily was
printed upside-down in the issue
of October 6 ... If it was
an accident, we offer our heartfelt
sympathy to those responsible for
the error . . .We know how much
embarrasment a “Boo-boo,” as we
call an error in our office, can
cause . . . Somehow, it seems
that people in the newspaper are
not allowed to make errors . . .
They are to be letter perfect and,
therefore, not quite human . . .
We, who eagerly look forward
to letters from our friends, some
times must wait in vain for weeks
. . . Who gets the personal mail in
Bor 1307? Mr. Duffy, our Scotty
dog, that’s who gets it He re
ceived one this week that we all
enjoyed. It read, in part, . .
If must at times be difficult to
maintain your calm composure
when you have to dodge the gravel
and mud thrown at you by care
less motorists speeding by. No
fairminded judge would ever con
vict you if you bit some of them
where it would be difficult for
them to maintain a recumbent
position. With winter coming on
you no doubt will seek the comfort
of the steam heat next door.
Please extend my regards to your
‘providers’ ”... We thank the
writer for his interest, and will
welcome further letters to Duffy,
as well as to us . . . We doubt
that Duffy will bite the motorists,
tho. His mistress is more apt to
do that . . .
Ragnar Hansen, who formerly
worked at the Naval Station, is
now working in Anchorage. He
spent a few days in Kodiak this

their home on Mill Bay Road . . .

Tailored Look
For Fall Styles
Suits, bell-sleeved dresses, tailor
ed styles—all are fashionable for
milady in Alaska this fall.
“Suits, which for the last few
seasons have been declining in pop

again. Suit jackets are longer, fab
rics—crisp-surfaced and firm. The
style? Tailored, of course,” says
your University of Alaska Coope
rative Extension Service home
demonstration agent.
Dresses with shoulder interest
and with full gathered sleeves
such as the large (bell sleeves are
setting the pace for fall, 1959.
Waistlines are normal, skirts re
main short.
Last year’s dress can acquire
some 1959 flavor by adding mili
tary braid, fringe or bias strips
to coll , pockets and onei ng£
Wide c shed leather be*.. , too,
will up-date last year’s dress.
As iif coats, many styles are
popuiu Smart for dress we;r are
the straight coats, especially those
with fur trim, and Chesterfields
Trench coats are being shown for
casual wear. A full cape-like coat
that fits well over a suit is one of
the newer styles.
Hats, too, have that tailored
look. The style is similar to that
of a man’s derby hat. High crowns,
ivith feathers, fur or felt trim are
oeing shown. Hats sit straight on
the head, covering part of tb*
