REFEREE UPHELD IN LUM-
 BER CASE BY THE COURT

In a decision handed down by Judge Robert W. Jennings. which was taken under advisement some time ago. the decision of the referee was upheld in the case of the Craig Lumber Company. The lumber mill had been getting out aeroplane tim Der for the war and was compelled to quit business when the armistice was signed. The McDonald-West Logging Company claimed balance due on logs from the lumber compa- ny amounting to $2TS715O and til- ed lien to be made preferred creditor. The referee decided that all creditors must share pro rata in the bankrupt sale of the lumber com pany and this is concurred in by the decision from Judge Jennings.

 James Oliver Curwood,
 Something over dozen years ago James Oliver Curwood deliberately and with malice aforthought sepa- rated himself from the payroll of the Detroit News-Tribune and declared thenceforth that he was going to write literature for the living. He bundled up kit and started for the Canadian Northwest to gather ma terial. That was seven years after he had started working as a cub re- porter, and he had become cub fol- lowing his graduation from the uni versity of Michigan.
 One year after Curwood quit news papering his first book appeared. It was "The Courage of Captain Plum" Since then he has turned out an ev- craze of one novel year, many short stories and has been one of the most prolific of all the movie scenario writers. He is the only cit izen of the United States ever em- ployed by the Canadian government as an exploratory and descriptive writer, and is one of the foremost authorities on matters pertaining to the Great Lakes.
 Curwood was born and reared at Owosso, Mich, and has made that place his home for a number of years, but he makes annual trips to the Far North. He has been five times to Hudson Bay, several times to the Arctic, four times to the Great Barrens, and he has explored primi- tive reaches of British Columbia and the Yukon. He has lived with Ind fans and the Eskimos( for whole winters, and he has studied at close quarters nearly all the wild animals in the wild country with which he has made himself so familiar.
 Curwood Is an authority on hus- kies, those dogs of wild wolf strain, of the North. A few years ago he wrote novel, "Kansan," in which one of these dogs was the hero. It was put out in serial form by WNU.
 It was an adventurous spirit which caused this man to quit compara- lively comfortable metropolitan liv- ing and go exploring in the most in- hospitable region one could select. ! But results have justified the move. Every line he writes finds publishers clamoring for it. No one has writ ten more charming tales and no one

Portland. Ore. May l9.-Alaska was featured at a luncheon of the members forum of the Chamer of Commerce. G. F.. Lewis, trapper. prospector. trader and capitalist. who knows Alaska thoroughly spoke briefly of the empire to the north that awaits exploitation.
 First of all. Mir. Lewis disclaimed the title of "Sourdough." and then proceeded 10 give a definition of the term. He said when a prospeCtor on the trail who carried q sourdongh pot with him to make bread took the dough out of the pot on a cold morning and kneaded it with his car ibou mittens on. the hairs from the mittens stuck in the dough and when the bread was baked stuck 10 the prospector's ribs like plaster to a wall. Then and then Onlv, he said, had one any right to the title.
 Mr. Lewis said the surface of Al aSka has been scratched merely as regards gold discoveries. and of it's mineral riches the half has not been told. He said Alaska supplies the fin est furs known to the worlds mar kpts. Alaska has a great seal herd, with the United States brand on every one.
