Drill Scow Up for
 Minor Repairs

The drill scow, Pacific Bridge and Construction Company, is up on the gridiron alongside the approach to the Citizens Dock, for repairs.
 The extreme high tides go out with ouch velocity that the water rushes over the blunt bow covering the decks. A false bow is being put on the scow so that the water will travel under rather than over the scow. With this improvement it is believed that the work will con- tinue uninterrupted.
 Much work has been accomplish ed during the past week in spite oi deal of handicaps so that wher the drill scow is back on the jot the work will proceed much more rapidly.
 The contractors are asking tht cooperation of all boatmen and urge that the new channel indicated b! red and black spars be followed a al times.

Topples Were Very Popular During
 Annual Sale

The Memorial Poppy Sale spon- sored by the local Unit of the American Legion Auxiliary, went over big. The 500 poppies which the organization ordered were sold within a few hours and about 35 were resold, the money all being turned in to the Auxiliary. These poppies were made by disabled soldiers in hospitals who received one cent for each poppy-thus en- ablings them to in many cases, par tially support their families. The Auxiliary paid the $1O cost price for the 500 poppies out of it's treaSuary and so all the proceeds from the sale will be sent to aid the disabled veterans and their families. This is a good cause and the local organization wishes to ex- press it's appreciation for the loyal support given by the citizens of Petersburg.

The earthquake and fire destroy cd San Francisco; floods sweeping thru Ohio seemingly destroyed Day ton; earthquakes shook. up and played havoc with Tokio; hurri- canes and tidal waves sweeping over Galveston left destruction in their wake. Yet after the calamities have past, these cities have arisen to greater heights.
 Today the Mississippi Valley sends out it's call for relief. Over the mountains cries of sorrow, pain and distress are waited by the breeze. Man is calling to man for humanity Mothers and children are in pain, and distress and sorrow and they stretch forth their hands with the plea that aid and sustenance be giv- en them.
 Not ours to dodge responsibility for the welfare Of those in that stricken area: ours to reach into oul pockets for our prayers and sympa thy. Just to be sorry will and re lieve pain; sympathy will not give food and clothing and rehabilitat' destroyed homes.

SHIP MASTERS AFTERNOON!

The attention of all masters of marine craft is called to the fact that the channel designated for use is on the port side of the north entrance to the Narrows, north bound. Cables are strung taut from the drill scow to the shore and at certain stages of the tide it is impossible for any machine propelled craft to pass ov- CT them. If hit with sufficient force it is quite probable that the taut lines will part thereby interfering with the drill scow.
