SYKES COLE AND GODDARD
RETURN FROM EXTENSIVE
NORTHWEST FISHING TRIP

C. E. Sykes, r. W. Cole, and c. q
Goddard, Ardmore business men have
returned from an extensive fishing
trip in Wyoming. They left Denver
August l6 for their fishing grounds,
and returned there August 80 to re-
join members Of their families on
their way home.
Mr.. Sykes has agreed TO prepare
for the Ardmoreite detailed account
of their trip. An elaborate account OF
his hunting trip into the Yukon ter
ritory last year is now being eagerly
read by sportsmen throughout the
country in Outdoor Life" a monthly
magazine published in Denver, Colo.
The article. I'm the Land Of the
Midnight Sun" is supplemented by
many excellent photographs, and Mr..
Sykes sketches Of the rivers, noun
tains, creeks and valleys around the
Lewes, Upper Pelly and South Fork
of the Macmillan rivers. Prior to the
appearance of this sketch, many OF
the physical features surrounding the
hunting ground which he visited were
uncharted The publishers OF Out
door Life" have recognized in Mr..
Sykes account sufficient merit to
make il the feature article Of their
magazine. The story. written in ad-
mirable style with here and there
a touch Of humor. breathes the spir-
il of the great northwest, so gripping
ly portrayed in verse by Robert w.
Service.

ROGERS DECLARES
 COAL WAS SEIZED
Says Roads Claim States Coal Not COnfiscated Is
 Erroneous
By FRED II. GoRMLEY

Montgomery, July 1-(special) )--State- ment of railroad officials denying that they had converted cars of coal con- signed to the state government and it's institutions to the use of railroads caused c, B. Rogers, chairman of the board of control and economy, today to declare that the railroad took over five cars of coal delivered by the Pratt Cen solidated Coal Company and consigned to the state on June 2 and converted them to other use.
 Chairman Rogers showed that the coal company had agreed to ship coal as di- rected by the state, and that ten cars were delivered to the railroad station at Littleton with instructions to consign them to the state prison at Speigner, but that the agent declined to bill all of the cars to that point, and instead gave the Seaboard Air Line railroad three cars and the Atlantic Coast Line railroad two cars.
 The statement declared that the con- fiscation of coal on the part of the rail- roads has become a serious matter and is

 In reply to a question whether he meant that he desired to protect his European associates Ponzi said:
 "They are entitled to my confidence, since they were largely responsible for the success of the venture"
 Mir Pride said that most of the books papers and cards of the company were in chaotic condition" but that this was to be expected with a concern that did such a tremendous business in such a brief time"

 As much as we dislike 10 get in the limelight or enter into public coutroe versy with the coal operators, railroad companies and other transportation com panies," said Mir.

October 1, moving day." is rapidly approaching, with hous- ing conditions still far from adequate. There can be no permanent relief until our peo- pie 'stop, look and listen" to the wisdom of acquiring va- cant lot and building a tenn porary home on it to be dis placed later by the permanent home. There is a great saving in buying lots at present prices.
 Sales are continually de- creasing the limited number of our lots in the Country Club District" = Mountain Terrace, Cliff Road and Altamont Road which we are offering on the basis of Improvements made at pre-war costs.
 Never before in the history of Birnongham has there been such a profound appreciation of the Country Club District" and particularly of that section to which we have referred; it's solid values and the permanent, assured nature of its environ ment.
 Only two of the homes we have built in the Country Club District" are left for purchas- CTS. They may be gone by the time this appears in print. Bet ter call on us at once.
 There is still a shortage of supply in buildings available for wholesale and retail trade purposes. Many merchants and manufacturers are bscom- ing alive to the necessity of owning their business homes and are in search of suitable To- cations on which to build. This office offers it's facilities in CO., operating with them.
 Our mortgage loan depart ment is placing quite a number of loans for residential con- struction. The policy of the companies which we represent is to relieve the housing situa- tion as far as practical.
