When ' tire boundaries " of the
Park were enlarged a few years
'ago many settlers found tbemselv
Jes cut off from all possibility of
'making a living. The surround

system and Investments built up
over a period of years were sudden

true in the case of Mr. and Mrs.

a review by the Secretary of the
Interior and, if any or all of the
claimants dissented from his de
cision, they were given the right
to appeal to the Court of Claims.
An appropriation of $75,000 wm
set up for payment to these set
tlers in case the Secretary or the
Court of Claims found their claim*
just. Otherwise the government
would not have been out of pocket
one penny. The Interior Depart
ment opposed the bill from the
first, but the Delegate was able to
Ret it through Congress despite
that fact. It Is customary to re

ments after their passage and it Is
Assumed that the President acted

opinion of the Depatrment.
ALASKA SOURDOUGH REUNION I
TACOMA, AUGUST 16-19
Long days and longer nights,
snow and ice, and northern lights
and through it all the mad lure
of gold—these will be recalled as
the old Sourdoughs of the AlaBka
Yukon gold rush days Join at
Tacoma August 16 to 19 in the
sixth annual International Sour
dough reunion.
Tacoma’s Sourdough Club, re
union sponsors this year, Invite to
the four-day meeting all the old
pioneers of tbe Klondike and
Nome stampedes and in addition
all others who have followed var
ious trails into the Yukon, Nor
thern British Columbia and Alas
ka, according to George A. Cal
vert, president of tbe host organ
ization.
Numerous committees working
with D. E. Griffiths of Auburn,
convention manager, are hard at
work to make this reunion es
pecially notable and Inviting.
“We have sent out thousands
of Invitations,” said Calvert, "but
■only a general invitation of this
kind can we expect to reach all
of them who are eligible and who
should attend the Tacoma meet
ings. We are overlooking no de
tail to provide an all-round good
time for everybody. I hope any
of the Sourdoughs interested will
drop us a line at Post Office Box
1203, Tacoma, so we can advise
them personally of our plans.”
HARLOW'S PLATINT.V TRESSES
CREATE NEW SCREEN FASHION
Shortly after her initial appear
anco in “Hell’s Angela,” beauty
shop owners all over the land be
gan to receive inquiries as to how
Miss Harlow achieved the boauti
lul coloring of hair, which ti ab
solutely without the harsh, hard
tones of the usual bi <nde . Hasty
research resulted in the platinum
rinse, which is now available a
the better beauty shops and which
is predicted will be the most pop
ular form of hair dress for blond
es dulng the coming season.
“I had no thought of creating
anything new,” she said recently,
while working on “Goldie,” her
newest Fox comedy coming Sun
day to the Dream Theatre in which
she portrays the title role oppo
site Spencer Tracy and Warren
Hymer, who are co-starred. “My
hair has always been the whitest
of white blondes. I merely use
the platinum rinse for photogra
phic improvement, and now I am
credited with creating a new
style. As a matter of fact, It has
been used on the stage for years;
but if people insist upon calling It
the 'Jean Harlow rinse,* I sup
pose there is nothing I can do
about it."
