What does Alaska want?
This ie the title of a leftgthy illus
trated article by Mary Lee Davis,
author of “God’s Pocket” and “The
Social Arctic Circle” which appears
in the June number of Schribners
Magazine, a copy of which was sent
direct to the Gateway from the New
York office. The article is very well
written and will undoubtedly com
mand national attention.
The author states that she knoSvs
o'- only two matters of which a'l
Alaska is unanimously agreed? In
brief, they want all Alaskan agencies
continued and the efficiency increas
ed. The second is the wish that the
government and its people will come
to an intelligent understanding of
Alaska and its problems.

PARISIANS TO DUNCE
"THE BANANA SLIDE
[ PARIS. June 14. {JP)—'The “Banana
Slide” seems to Paris dancing masters
a good substitute for the Charleston
and the Black Bottom.
They describe the Charleston as dy
ing and the Black Bottom as success
fully stopped before it got well started.
The Banana Slide, already demon
jstrated in public here, combines the
antics of the proverbial silk-hatted
gentleman skidding on a banana peel,
and certain steps from the old reli
| able fox-trot with a slight addition of
the quieter movements of the Charles
ton.

Lepage formerly was a glass work
er. He was disabled by a factory ac
cident and has spent three years, rent
free, by the roadside, in his tub, which
begins to show wear. He has rigged
old tarpaulin over uprights for shel
ter and privacy. An old box is cub
board, w'ardrobe and table. Another
box, outside, houses his best friend, a

wolf hound.
