He also stated that he ex. pected to be transferred to some other company within ten days of the time of writing, so his company address will probably be different.
 The army life is a great one. he declared and although he and others who went in at the same time were in the rookie squad. the drillmaster is patient with them. He mentions seeing Cub Bair and Chub Douglas, two of the Tolovana boys, at Camp Lewis, although they are in differ ent organizations than his.

NEW TRUCK ON
 INITIAL TRIP

The new auto truck recently pur. chased by the proprietors of Mum sons road house was given its mi tial tryout yesterday over the trail with Frank Coombs at the wheel. A large load of supplies for the road house was taken along to test its carrying capacities.
 It is the intention of the owners of the truck to run an accommoda- tion line between town and their es. tablishment for the use of those who wish to spend few days in the'vi- cinity of the Salchaket river either in hunting or fishing. With the ap- proach of the fall the fishing will be good at that place, and a little later on the annual run of caribou will take place, then will occur the hunt of those who kill their own meat for winter consumption.

BABY FALLS INTO PAN
 OF BOILING WATER

The one year old daughter of MT. and Mrs. Bud Tyner, who live near the Ozan mill, was badly scalded late yesterday afternoon when it fell head first into a dish pan full of boiling water and the little one is not ex- pected to survive.
 Mrs. Tyner had taken a dish pan full of boiling water off the stove and set it down on the floor. She turned away to call her husband to carry the pan of water in the yard. Just as she turned away the little girl ran over to the pan and became overbalanced, falling head first into the boiling water, frightfully scalding half of her body. Medical attendance was rushed to the scene but little hope is felt for her recovery.
