GRANT IS
 ATTRACTION TONIGHT

"The Innocent Lie," excellent Frohman production, which was pre- sented at the Coliseum on Tuesday night, will be repeated tonight for the benefit of those who missed the first showing. The picture must be returned to Fairbanks immediately, and it is the desire of Manager Burns to give everyone in Nenana an opportunity to see Valentine Grant before the film leaves town.
 Those who saw the show declare that it is one of the best of the summer, with a strong cast, good theme and excellent photography.

CAlOERHEAD BACK FROM COAST TRIP;
 MADE FAST TIME

The work of laying track south from Talkeetna is progressing steadi- ly, the end of steel having reached Deadhorse within the past few days, according to R. w. Calderhead, pres ident of the Broad Pass Coal & De- velopment company, who returned to Nenana yesterday afternoon from a hurried trip to Anchorage, by way of Broad Pass. Mir. Calderhead made the trip from the coast to Nenana in just five days, which in cluded hike of approximately 130 miles between ends of steel
 The track gang had not reached Deadhorse (Mile 24e) when Mir. Calderhead passed the outfit out ward bound, but on the return trip the train took him all the way to Deadhorse station and the tracklay- CTS were moving onward toward Gold creek, where the big Susitna river bridge is to be erected. There is considerable completed grade north of Deadhorse, and it is be- lieved that the tracklaying opera tions will proceed rapidly from now on. Between eight and clever miles of steel has been laid thus far this season north of Talkeetna.
 Most of the steel for the .Susitna bridge has arrived at Anchorage and is scattered about the yards there in great heaps, waiting for the track to be completed to Gold creek. The work of excavating for the piers is now in progress, one of the excava- tions being almost ready for filling. A temporary bridge now spans the river and will be used until the per menent structure is in place.
 It is the hope of the commission, MT. Calderhead says, to lay steel to Hurricane gulch before work stops for the winter, but to do it will require a concentration of forces and favorable weather conditions. It seems to be regarded as certain, however, that the rails will reach Mile 275 before the work stops.
 The bridging of Hurricane gulch, MT. Calderhead says, is a big en- gineering job. The structure will be about 800 feet in length and nearly that distance above the ground in the center of the gulch. He was impressed by the magnitude of the undertaking while trying to get out of the gulch after having
The Nenana daily news., 1920-08-05

gone down into the great gcrge. It took him three hours to get back onto the trail.
 The work of building the wagon road from Talkeetna toward the summit is progressing rapidly, and has reached point short distance south of Hurricane gulch. The com pleted road does not now afford the best of travelling, owing to heavy rains on the coast side, but MT. Calderhead believes it will prove an excellent highway for winter traf- fic. Road gangs are at work at several points on both sides of the summit and it is expected that the road will be completed before win ter.
 MT. Calderhead says there is no question about the road being kept open throughout the winter, and he predicts an excellent service between ends of steel for mail and pass engers. There are large quantities of freight to be moved to various points along the trail, from both ends of steel, and this in itself will keep the trail oper for the mail and passenger stages, which should be able to maintain an uninterrupt- ed three-day schedule.
 Summer travel across the summit has been greatly improved by the bridging of streams which had to be forded previously and which were a source of danger to mushers. All the streams on the south slope are now bridged and within a very short time the few remaining gaps will be closed on the Interior end of the trail.
 There are many men at work in the Southern division, MT. Calder head says, but the best workers are those who originally belonged to the Interior While the pay is less on the coast end, the working condi- tions appear to be more favorable than they are in this division, and the men seem to be about as we'll off financially at the end of the month as they are over here. He met a number of oldtimers along the line, south of the summit, and they appeared to be fairly well con- tented.
 MT. Calderhead says Anchorage is large and fine-;ool ing town, but it vas rather quiet during the time he was there, most of the activities being confined to the construction camps along the railroad and at Chickaloon, where a large force is now engaged in development work under the direction of the navy de- partment.

F;RELESS COOKER is HANDY
No Radiators Are Used In Some, While
in Others Iron or Soapstone
Is Employed.

prepared by the United States Depart
ment of Agriculture)
ANY woman who cannot afford to
buy a factory-built fireless cooker can
make one with little expense. Home
demonstration agents of the United
States department of agriculture and
the state agricultural colleges are
teaching women all over the country
how to make them. No radiators are
used in some homemade fireless cook
ers. while in others radiators of iron
or soapstone are put in to supply extra
heat. In place of the regulation type
of radiator, some ingenious club wom-
en- in Alameda County. Cal are using
fiat, waterworn rocks as a substitute.
The stones were gathered from a creek.
Ordinary baling wire was wound
around the stone and made into han
die. Data has been keyc by one OF
the women as to the length of time re
quired to heat such stone as com
pared to heating radiator of soap
stone or iron. Her conclusion was
that the rocks heat as quickly as the
usual type of radiator and give as
satisfactory results.
