A CHMDREN'S
 HOUR AT STUDIO


 Was there ever small boy or girl wko has not at some time said: "Tel me story?" And has there ever been 9 grown-up who hasn't at some time wished he were back at the story tell ing age when he used to curl up in somc corner just made for small person and listen to the story of the Silver Skates or Snow-White or may. be the Green Knight2
 Well, anyway Miss Frances Gulicls has a plan which has aroused a live. ly interest and enthusiasm among the little folks of Juneau. for on Friday afternoon. from t:OO until 5:30 the Studio win entirely forget that lt has ever been a place for grown.ups and will instead be a story room where grown-ups can't find admission. If you've ever heard one of the stories Miss Gulick tells youll wish you weren't a grown-up. if you arc one, and ii you're not so unfortunate you'll bo very glad of the chance to hear her tell another.
 An the little boys ana girls who can come are expected at tho Studio at four o'clock, and for an hour and half everything outside Of storyland will be forgotten. Miss Gulick plans the sort of a story hour which has be. come SO prominent feature of the childrens world in the larger cities and tho proposal has met with the hearty approval Of alr concerned.

GiIcrest Shows Some Crit.

Supt. John Gilcrest, of the P.
l.. S. Co., met with q very serious
and painful accident last Satur-
day. The accident occurred in
Silvies VALLEY where he was In
company with some friends on
his way home from a tour of the
company ranches over in Malheur
county. They had their lunch
with them and had stopped for
purpose of eating it. Mr.. Gil.
crest, who had but recently re-
covered from a severe operation
and was still weak, was leading
the way from car the to the shade
by a stream and was in a stoop-
ing position going under some
brush when he caught his toe
under a projecting root and to
recover himself he threw his
weight heavily upon his left foot
with the result that he dislocated
his hip and also broke his leg
near the hip.
His friends made him as COM
Portable rs possible and he insist
ed upon the party eating lunch
first and then plan u way OF get
ting him into the car and on to
town. The trip was finally ac-
complished but he suffered very
much from his injuries. His
physicians did not at first dis
cover the broken bone but when
the dislocated hip would not stay
in place an X-Ray-plate disclosed
it. Mr.. Gilcrest is now lying on
his back with his feet higher
than his head, the injured leg
packe d in sand bags with a
heavy weight to his leg. He is
very cheerful under the circum-
stances considering he will have
to remain in that position for
several weeks.
Mr.. Gilcrest had rendered his
resignation as superintendent of
the P. l.. S. Co. to take effect
the early part Of next month
and was making a last tour of
the ranches to give final instruc-
tons and to meet personally
many of the men who had been
under him for so many years.
He had expected to leave for his
home in California next week
but now he il forced to remain
until his condition will permit
his removal.

Purinason Saw Mil Has
100000 Feet Lumber

The Times Herald family had q
most pleasant day at the Puring-
ton saw mill last Sunday where
they enjoyed the hospitality Of
Mr.. and Mrs. Purington for the
day. This is q beautiful spot in
which to spend a hot day with
some of the finest cold spring
water eyer tasted. The writer
was conducted over the big plant
and through the yard where an
exceptionally fine lot Of lumber is
piled ready for trade. Mr., Pur-
ington has already cut over L.
900. 900 feet this season and is
getting in logs for more. The
mill proper will be closed down
today, however. for a short time
while some of the men put up the
hay on the meadow close by and
others will run the planning mill to
capacity until a sufficient class of
surface lumber has been put
through.
A tramp through the timber
adjacent to the mill disclosed a
fine body that will supply the
plant for several years. This is
an ideal location for such a manu-
featuring enterprise with ade-
quate facilities and machinery of
a modern pattern. The buildings
are scattered about at convenient
distances and so located as to re-
duce the fire risk, with water
piped from big spridgs to eleva-
tions above the main buildings
and machinery that q gravity
water system of considerable inn
portance has been completed
The drive is pleasant up the
mountain by way of Harvey and
an auto can be driven up over a
good road. The return trip is
most enjoyable as on the way one
reaches an elevation of 7, 500 feet,
bringing one high above the val
ley and giving an excellent view
while coasting down the noun
tain.
