LOOKING AHEAD
Alaskan progress of the past forecasts the future greatness of
the Northland, and justifies all Alaskans in holding to their firm
faith in the Territory’s possibilities and worth. By aiming high and
working together—actively and steadily—those having to do with Al
askan progress can accomplish much. “Looking Ahead ’ to still great
er things, and planning and working accordingly, is the one way that
a high purpose can be realized.
The Alaska Railroad—a pioneer system—is gradually and pain
stakingly striding towards a great goal—the greater development of
Alaska; and that the future is bright and promising is attested by
the steady and consistent upward trend of past and present activi
ties. The Alaska Railroad is “Looking Ahead.”

Barbers have practically become
millinery dictators, with cloche shaped
felt hats, conforming to the neck out
line of the bob or shingle, daily in
creasing among the younger set.
Some hats are cut in rather sharp
points, other are only slightly round
ed, while many are in lines verging
upon the square, according to the man
ner in which the tonsorial artist has
plied his scissors upon Milady’s neck.
The main idea of the millinery de
signer is to leave no tag ends of crop
ped hair showing from beneath the
back of the hat.
