Fairbanks Suffers
Extreme Weather;
Listen In To Radio
(By Associated Press)
FAIRBANKS, Alaska, Jan. 21 —
With the temperature ranging from
fifty-five to sixty-five below zero, the
postoffice in this place was forced to
close. This is the first time in the
history of Fairbanks that any bus
iness had to be closed on account of
the severity of the weather.
The facilities for heating, it was
said are inadequate to keep the fin
gers of the clerks warm while sort
ing mail. The cold started on Satur
day and was accompanied by a dense
fog which covered the entire Fair
banks district. Regardless of the all
this, the fires in homes were banked
and those having radio sets listened
I in to KJR’s program.
Howard Long is a Seward visitor
from Lakeview. He reports some cold
weather in his section the past week.

France’s Invitation
To Exhibit In April
(By Associated Tress)
PARIS, Jan. 21.—Thirty nations
will be represented at the Internation
al Exhibition of Decorative Arts
which opens in Paris next April. Prep
arations are rapidly going forward,
and it is expected that the admirable
site chosen for the exhibition in the
very heart of Paris, comprising the
Esplanade III and the Grand Palais,
will he ready to house the exhibitors
about the 15th of February.
The Court of Arts and Crafts, the
theater and library, are practically
completed and 68 pavilions belonging
to exhibitors have been received and
are being erected.
England will have the largest ex
hibit of any of the foreign nations. An
States through the ministry of foreign
affairs, but it was declined.
Other countries which are erecting
pavilions are Belgium, Italy, Polland,
Japan, Peru, Switzerland, Austria,
Czecho-slovakia, Jugo-slavia, Greece,
Spain, Holland, Denmark, Hungary,
Ireland, Bulgaria, Sweden, Latvia, Es
thonia, Cuba, Brazil, Norway, Monaco,
Luxemburg, Turkey, Russia, and the
French protectorates of Morocco, Tu
nisia and Algeria.
The aim of the exhibition is to show
that the industry of today presents
artistic, logical and harmonious forms
exactly adapted to the conditions of
modern life and executed with as
much art as in the past. It is open
to all industries.
Hygiene will be given a prominent
place. Two hundred years ago there
were no bothtubs even in the palaces,
of the kings. One of the largest floor
concessions in the Esplanade des In
valides has been allotted to French
firms dealing in baths and accessor
j ies.
I The problem of housing and feed
ing the thousands of visitors expect
ed in Paris during the exhibition is
giving much concern to the Syndi
cate of Hotel and Restaurant Keep
ers.
The Turkish and Italian delegations
have solved it by building restaurants
of their own where all their citizens
either employed at the exhibition or
merely visitors, will be served at cost
price. Owing to the lack of space,
the restaurants are built on steel gir
ders extending over the Seine.
GERMANY IS TOLD WHY
EVACUATION POSTPONEC
(By Associated Press)
LONDON, Jail. 22.—The allied am
bassadors’ note to Germany on the
postponement of the Cologne evacu
ation, the text of which was made
public by the foreign office this af
ternoon, asserts that the allied gov
ernments are already in a position
to inform Germany that they have
obtained proof “showing Germany
has not yet fulfilled and cannot pos
sibly have {'unfilled by January 10”
the conditions laid down in the Ver
sailles treaty so as to enable her to
benefit by the clause of the treaty
relating to a partial evacuation of the
occupied zone.
The note gives six instances why
the zone has not been evacuated:
First, that the general staff of the
German army has been reconstitut
ed in another form;
Second, short service volunteers
have been recruited and trained;
Third, transformation of war ma
terials has not been completed;
Fourth, a surplus of every kind
of war material has been found and
illicit stocks discovered;
Fifth, reorganization of the state
police has not been started;
Sixth, the German government is
far from having taken the legisla
tive and administrative measures
demanded by the allies in their note
of September 29, 1922.

Modern Health Methods
Applied To Palestine
(By Associated Press)
JERUSALEM, Jan. 22.—That Pales
tine, the land of many diseases, can
become a land of health, was the
sermon preached during “Health
Week” introduced into this country
by an American organization. The
lessons of health were taught by
word of mouth thru lectures in
schools, synagogues and churches.
They were made real by slides and
motion pictures, and were popular
ized by specially prepared leaflets
and articles in the Hebrew and Ara
bic press. The campaign was car
ried to practically every town of any
size and to numerous Arab villages
and Jewish agricultural settlements.
Proposed by Dr. Simon Tannen
baum of New York, Palestine direc
tor of the Hadassah Medical organiza
tion, whose hospitals and sanitary ac
tivities are supported by the Wom
en’s Zionist Organization of Ameri
ca, “Health Week” rapidly gained
the interest of leaders of the Jew
ish, Christian and Moslem communi
(ties and the unofficial support of
! the Palestine government. The week
was divided into five days—Hygiene
| Day, Baby Day, Food Day, Microbe
Day, and Recreation Day.

HIRSCHBERG, Jan. 22.—The lace
and embroidery industry of Germany,
which has its chief scat in Silesia,
is having an exceedingly difficult
time which even the Christmas sea
son did not alleviate. Embroidered
goods still belong to the class of lux
uries without which most Germans
can do. Since the stabilization of the
mark most German housewives have
discovered so many gaps in their
wardrobes that they have been quite
content to re-stock with plain linens.
The many women who give their
time to fine needlework declare that
they will work for almost nothing
just to have something to do. They
are ready to adapt themselves to
changing fashions, whereas formerly
their output was of a somewhat ster
otyped variety.

cess of $45,000 each annually.
