MORE ON DROWNING
tContinued from Page One

Continued from Page One AS the skiff neared the stern of the Surveyor it filled and swamped the men taking to the water and shouting for help. This occurred at 3:35 a. m., today.
 The Quartermaster on watch, im- mediately gave the alarm, man over- board" Capt. Lukens, who had been awakened from sound slumber by the cries for help was on deck in an in- stant and was joined simultaneously by other officers and members of the crew. He heaved overheard life ring and rushed to the boat deck and ordered the whale boat lowered. While this was taking place Carl Deekin was reached by heaving line and hauled on deck. It was about at this time when Bowen suddenly went over the side in an effort to assist or save the men in the water. In so do- ing he dove headlong to death and if Capt Lukens had had any inkling that Bowen had contemplated jumping over he would have been restrained for the Captain said no one could have lived in the icy water for more than few minutes. Another seaman asked permission to jump in after the men but he was ordered below. Bow en undoubtedly acted upon the spur of the moment.
 Tn the meantime the vessel was swinging on her long length of anchor and had swung away from the men. By the time the boat was dropped into the water and pulled away to the scene, in the face of the strong north erly gale, the men could not be found.
 The power launch, by this time, had also dropped in the water, and with the aid of the big searchlight, the surrounding waters were swept and searched continuously for four hours The swamped skiff was found by the launch but though the search has con- tinued without letup since, the bod ies have not been recovered.
 The vessel, which was scheduled to sail this morning at o'clock for the South, having completed it's sea- sons work in this district, will remain in port indefinitely, Capt. Lukens stat ed, to continue the search for the bodies but local serfaring men say the search will prove fruitless. The Sur veyor was anchored off shore having between 30 and 40 fathoms under her.

WADE IN PACE

It is futile to attempt to express in words the sorrow of every resident in Seward in the death by drowning in Resurrection bay of three men this morning.
 With but scant hour left before pulling up anchor and leaving for the South having completed most cessfu charng and plotting the in this dis ct and going through this entire period without an acc dent like bolt from the heavens boat is swamped and three lives flicker out
 The suddenness of these apparently untmey deaths, for all still boys in their early twentes has shocked the community nothing has done before for every member of the Surveyors crew has become one of Sew ards family during months spent here this year.
 The metal these government men are made of is H. frustrated in the vain attempt of w. H. Bowen who leaped into the ice cold water of the bay to his shmate R. P Byerly and George Savn, the boy from the s. S. Redondo, and in doing so lost his own life.
 What finer way to die than the way of hero Bowen.
 Every effort brought to bear to the men, when their cries for help rang out the waters early this morning. by Captain R. R. Lukens and his able crew but the elements were against 1t.
 All through the morning hours and today the search has continued for the bodies of the boys but thus far the sea has refused to give them back
 Seward is badly upset today nothing right, and moist eyes common sight.

Farm Houses Now Have
All Modern Conveniences

Development of home equipment has
made it possible to place every mod
ern convenience of the city residence
in the farmhouse.
Heating is naturally considered first.
Stoves and fireplaces are disappearing.
Basement heating plants are in COM
mon use, one of the most popular
types being the pipeless furnace. This
is because Of the fact that little heat
is thrown out except through the top,
which allows the basement to continue
to be used for storing foods. All types
of warm air, steam and hot water
heating plants are installed on farms
nowadays. however.
Running water is just as essential
OH the modern farm as in the city.
as plumbing systems, sewage disposal
and efficient laundries depend upon
a constant water supply. Aside from
the house supply. water should be
available for the dairy barn. feeding
yards, garage. lawn and garden, and
for fire protection.
1t is to be noted that the small
water tank. in the attic and the larger
water tower outside the house, are
being supplanted by steel tank pres
sure systems located in the basement,
or buried underground.

Good Lumber Necessary
for Good Construction

If lumber is worked on the job
it takes additional time for the, carr
penters and additional money FROM
the builder. The best worlmen can
not build good-looking home with q
poorly manufactured product.
For that reason it is only good
business when building home to rely
upon some known lumber that is man
ufactured by reliable Arm. And the
best security is in a trade-marked
brand of lumber, for here the manu-
facturer must depend upon his lumber
to make his easily dfstfnguishabie
product acceptable to the building
world.
There are many frame homes stand
ing today that were built when the
United States was confined to the east
coast. This. coupled with the fact
that lumber now Is prepared much
more scientifically and more carefully
than when those houses were built
indicates the homes built soundly tc
day will last as long as those of t'ae
past.

these rooms are of good size. French
doors from the living room at the
side of the fireplace lead to the sum
parlor which extends the depth of the
house. Note also that there are two
doors in each room giving entrance
to all parts of the house with, min
imum of travel. The hall leads di-
rectly to the kitchen as well as to
the living room and dining room. The
kitchen is connected with dining room
and Mushroom as well. A door to-
the rear of the living room leads; to
the kitchen through the washroOm.

DRUNKENNESS AND
when IT HAPPENS
British Committee Finally
Adopts Standard Rule

London. Feb. IS tP>-The question
when Is a man drunk" has been
answered by the report OF an expert
committee, Just published The an
swer is that the word drunk
should always be taken to mean that
the person concerned lis SO much
under the influence of alcohol as to
have lost control Of his faculties to
such an extent as to render him un
able to execute safely the occupation
in which he is engaged"
The committee, whose investiga
tons under the auspices of the Brit
ish Medical association. lasted for 6
months, was made up of 5 doctors,
two magistrates. and Major General
Sir William Macpherson, late of the
army medical service.
Its report, Just issued, points out
that there Is not a single test which
iustifes medical practitioner In
reaching decision as to drunken
ness; that a correct conclusion can
only be reached by a combination Of
many tests or observations, such as
general demeanor, the state OF the
tongue and breath, the character of
speech, manner of walking, of sitting
down and rising, of picking up OBJ
jects from the floor, memory as to
recent events, reaction of the pupils
and the character of the breathing.
