for Ages.

In a short time now steel glrders
will arrive for the Healey office build
inf, opposite the postoffice. Work on
this structure up TO date has neces-

Thousands Of cubic yards Of dirt
have been oNcavated. TO a distance
Of nearly 80 feet below the level of
the street, and drills have been forced
down q distance of nearly, 60 feet. The
drills finally struck hard rock, and il
is on this that the Healey building,
the largest office structure in the city,
viii rest through its giant pillars Of
cement.
Tho dimensions Of the foundation
holes were such that several carloads
of cement had to be sunk in each
hole.
Constant heavy rains have hindered
the work greatly. but the building VIII
soon take definite shape. with better
weather and the preliminarles done
away with.

NEW. CHANGE
IN. ROUTES

What Engineer Thompson be-
lieves to be solution of the prob
lem now confronting the county
commissioners and the. citizens of
Steilacoom over the building of
the Hewitt-Steilacoom boulevard
was submitted to the county COM
missioners today and the board
will discuss the new plans at their
meeting Thursday.
Engineer Thompson has map
ped out new route which he de-
clares will retain the scenic beau
ty of the road as demanded by the
Steilacoom citizens, and would be
paid out of the state highway
fund, thereby saving the city of
Steilacoom from a higher tax
levy.
Mr.. Thompson proposes to
avoid the big gravel park by start
ing the road at Steilacoom, run
ming south and connecting up
with the road already partly COM
pleted. This would insure the
scenic beauty to the road, he says,
and would cost $4,000 to build.

1t has been hard to understand
why some baked beans could be SO
good and others so tasteless / have

bread should be steamed the day be-

the relocating. The beans should be
soaked over night and then well
seasoned and baked with q little salt
pork.
This is better done also on Satur-
day and then reheated on Sunday,
especially if there is no fireless cooker
in the home. But il preferred they
may be soaked in cold water Saturday
night and Sunday morning made
ready for the bean pot and baked in
a very slow oven all day with very
little watching. The salad may be
made of any of the seasons green
vegetables and served with a we'll
seasoned French dressing.
