yes. At least that has been our ex-
perience. From the time we left
Tacoma until we left Chicago. the
trains did not vary more than a few
minutes from schedule, and the serv-

Man Lost Near Summit Lake Shows

Ed Ekherst, local hunter who
got separated from his brother
about o'clock Thursday morning
of last week while hunting near the
old Jameson logging works south OF
Summit lake, wandered through the
woods and hills all that day and all
day Friday before he happened on
to the campfire of another hunter by
the name of Hudson, on Waddle
creek, not far from Little Rock.
Hudson took him to Little Rock.
arriving there about IL O'Clock Fri
day night Ekherst was weakened
by the exposure and lack of food, but
was otherwise unaffected. Search
ing parties headed by Game Warden
King and Sheriff Clifford spent Thurs.
day and Friday in the woods and an
other was ready to start Saturday
morning when the news was received
that he was safe.
