IDE LOW AND SHORT <
PARIS. — The church crusade
against short skirts and low-neck j
gowns continues. A notice posted ‘
on the door of one Paris house of
worship reads:
"N'o woman will be allowed to at
tend service in this church whose.
dresses are cut low in the neck,
and whose skirts do not reach at
least to the ankles.”
Scathing sermons on the subject
have been delivered in Paris church
es for some time. One priest re
fused to conduct the marriage ser- •
vice for a bride whose dress, in his
opinion, showed too great a length
of silk stocking, and which was cut
|
in such a way “as possibly to.
make it suitable for evening wear, i
but certainly not fitted for a j
church.” The wedding was post-!
poned. Probably this was the first
occasion of the postponement of a
marriage ceremony for such a rea- j
son.
Parisian women say that this j
measure, if generally enforced.
would compel every woman wor
shiper to have a special skirt to
wear to church.

FORCED TO QUIT
FAIRBANKS ROAD
The winter express service of
Wells Fargo & Co. between Fair
banks and the Outside, which has
been of material benefit to the In
ferior country in years gone by,
{since the very early days, has been
jdiscontinued, according to informa
|tion received at the local office of
the company.
The information is not accompa
nied by an explanation, the message
merely stating that the service is
: off for the remainder of the winter.
But in view of the fact that the
jcompany has had a great deal of
|difficulty handling its business over
,the Fairbanks-Chitina trail during
• the past couple of winters, the as
I sumption is that the service has
been abandoned for that reason.
iAnd if that is the case, the service
.very likely will not be resumed un
iless more satisfactory arrangements
can be made for handling the busi
ness between Fairbanks and Chitina
;or until the business can be routed
by way of the Broad Pass route.
The company might have been in
duced to divert its business to the
Broad Pass trail this winter but for
[the fact that there was no certainty
I that the Government railroad be
tween Seward and Anchorage could
be kept open. With this uncertainty
[now removed and the assurance that
the ends of steel will be brought
much closer together before the end
of another working season, there is
reason to believe that satisfactory
arrangements can be made for car
rying express across Broad Pass
during the coming winter and there
after until such time as the business
can be taken care of altogether by
| the Government railroad. It has
'been demonstrated that much more
[satisfactory results might have been
obtain 1 this winter by the company
;had the Xenana-Broad Pass route
: been used instead of the much
longer Richardson trail, with its un
reliable mail service.
There is a movement already on
;foot in N'enana to take the matter
:up with the company with a view to
the establishment of an express
[route via Broad Pass during the
i coming winter, and the matter
;doubtless will receive the attention
I of the Commercial club at an early
date. Those who have interested
themselves in the matter argue that
it is not a case of trying to get the
business away from Fairbanks, but
merely to revive a service which
i has been discontinued, presumably
[because of the inability of the Fair
banks-Chitina contractors to make
good. As it stands now, the In
iterior country' has no express service
of any sort, and probably will not
have until Wells Fargo & Co. can
be induced to use the Broad Pass
trail.

i Plans for the entertainment and
dance to be given under the aus
pices of Nenana Igloo, No. 17. Pio
neers of Alaska, next Saturday
night, were outlined by the com
mittee in charge in a report submit
ted at the regular semi-monthly
meeting of the igloo last night at

not made known, but the members
were assured that things were mov
ing along smoothly and that the

ting celebration in honor of Wash
ington’s birthday. The program will
be announced within the next day

The meeting last night was fairly
■ well attended by oldtimers and con
siderable routine business disposed
of. One of the matters disposed of
was the appointment of J. Russell
Walle as special delegate to repre
sent the local igloo at the Grand
! igloo session which will convene at I
Anchorage early next month. Mr.!
