EASTERN CONCERN MAY
 PUT IN GOLD STORAGE

An eastern concern is seriously con- sidering the establishment of cold storage plant at Unga in the near fu- ture, according to arrivals in Seward on the s. s. Starr from the Westward the distance Seward is too great they say to make the run. It is also said that that hundreds of pounds are wasted daily due to the fact there is no method by which they can be saved for shipment forthough none of the fishermen make it point to fish for them yet when nets are pull led in with other fish there are always large number of halibut in the net.

Uncle Wiggily was hopping along
the path through the woods one
morning looking for May flowers,
which he wanted to take to the
Lady Mouse Teacher in the Hollow
Stump School when, all of a sudden,
the rabbit gentleman heard some
voices speaking. At the same time
he saw the bushes moving.
"Ha, Some ono is coming,'
whispered Mr.. Longcars to himself.

so I had better look for a hollow
log into which to crawl to hide. !

But before the rabbit could find
q hollow log. the voices came near.

"Now. don t make any more of
them.'
"Ill try not to- answered an
other voice.
Then Uncle Wiggilv smiled, for
the voices were the barks of dogs
and he guessed who was coming.

NUNGESSER AND COLI

Ten days have elapsed since Captains Nungesser
and Coll left Paris in their arpane. bound for New
iork IN desperate effort to be the first travel be
tween these cities in one continuous air flight.
since their departure from Paris no word has been
heard from the daring Frenchmen and there is little
ooubt that they met with disaster enroute over the
Atlantic.
Ihe American nation greves with France in the loss
OF her two brave who added to the glory they
achieved in defense of their country by their coura
geous attempt to bring to it. laurels in the most
modern method of transportation.
Whlle the bravery and courage of NungeSSer and
Coli is unquestionabe, their wisdom is open to argu
ment. Attempting the long flight is dangerous
proposition under the advantageous condi-
tons TO attempt it in the face of the weather
conditions that have existed for years. and without
the radio to summon assistance in of disaster,
seems little short of foolhardy But then we who
remain on the ground and fear to brave the conquest
OF the elements have little right to question the wis
dom of those who dare to lead where not fol-
low.
There is chance-a slight one-that Nungesser
and Coli may still be alive, in obscure corner or
aboard some small ship The world hopes that such
is the condition.
