YACHT CLUB FLAG
 BE CHOSEN TONIGHT

An attempt will be made by of ficcrs of the Juneau Yacht Club tonight to select the best flag for the sea-going organization from among those which have been sub mitted by the students of the pub lie schools. A prize of $10 is to be awarded to the entrant whose design is chosen for the emblem
 It is said that the choice of a flag will be no easy matter, as 8 great number of ingenious and at tractive designs were sent in by the cnterprising students. Among the designs are those with polar bears, sea gulls, seals, moose, stars, and one which is thought to represent the Northern Lights.

RUTHERFORD
 TELLS PLANS
 FOR SEASON
President of juneau Lum- Der Mills Return Here
 from Business Trip

Combining business With pleasure for about four months in the South and realizing real results from both endeavors, is the manner in which Roy Rutherford summed up the recently ended business and pleas ure jaunt with his family to south ern California and way points. MT. and Mrs. Rutherford with their daughters Dorothy and Florence, returned home aboard the steamer Alaska.
 Of prime importance, MT Ruther- ford considers the contracts that he closed while outside for con- siderable of the 1929 output of the local saw mill of the owning com pany of which he is President. Sal mon box lumber, as usual, will be one of the major outputs of the plant. Contracts for large amounts of this material were closed, the whole of the orders being for Alas kan canneries.
 Spruce Ranks High
 Clear spruce will again be one of the high rankers from finan- cial standpoint, said MT. Ruther- ford Contracts for large quanti- ties of this lumber were also closed. As in the past large proportion of the spruce will be consumed by the airplane industry in Europe, with considerable amounts utilized for similar purposes in the States. While various metals are fast re- placing woods as plane building material, spruce is still neces- sity and is used in large quantities, MT. Rutherford explained. Engineers have yet to find a metal that for lightness and comparative strength will meet the universal demands of the plane builders. There are at this time several planes being manufactured in all wood. The Lockheed Vega, a most successful and truly remarkable performing plane that is constructed in Cali fornia, is of wood construction. These things. MT. Rutherford went on to explain, tended to buoy up the airplane spruce industry.
 New Machinery
 New machinery purchased by MT Rutherford that will be installed and ready for operation when the mill starts for the season will ef- feet large savings in material and render useable material that in the past has of necessity been waste. Three machines that are designed primarily to obviate waste will be installed. These machines according to MT Rutherford, are used in the box department. With them the narrow widths of mater ial that in the past have been burn ed will be joined under pressure and glued, thus making strong board wide enough for box pur- poses. The machinery for this purpose comprises three machines box board hatcher, gluer and squeezer.
 Lumber Market Up
 The lumber market of the States is up $1 to s per thousand feet, said MT. Rutherford. This has largely been brought about by the exceptionally severe winter that the Pacific coast has experienced. Near ly all the lumber camps of Wash-I ington, Oregon as well as Northern California were, and large num- Der are still, shut down on account

One gets the impression of sum-
mer resort because the boulevard Is
so smooth and up-to-datc and the
side streets SO rough. Again because
the buildings are mostly wooden
and limited to three stories. And
there are hardly any store windows.
The stores are wide open all day and
at night huge sliding doors are pulled
down or across to cover them up.
Padlocks arc everywhere used for
locks, even on the doors Of hotel
rooms in most instances. Restaur-
ant tables on the sidewalks add to the
summary atmosphere. Ecuadorans
claim theirs Is a land Of perpetual

Guayaquil is full of American fliv-

10000 persons.
First Glass Newspapers
There's a first-claSs newspaper
plant in Guayaquil, Ell TELEGRAPH. It
is the biggest newspaper in Ecuador,
though its daily circulation is only
about $4,000. It was founded in 1884,
installed its first linotypes in 1912 and
its first rotary press 10 years later. It
has city staff Of six reporters. three
more men at Quito, the capital, and
correspondents in all large cities.

WINTERTIME
By D. G. PEATTIE.

The fall of the leaves is the hunters
joy, for now indeed are the safe green
screens of the birds torn down; there
is no place to hide now, for partridge
or quail and the country boy taking an
unkind pot-shot at Master Cardinal
(who is worth nothing to eat) has an
easy mark. But leaving aside the
cardinal, it is remarkable that our Win
ter birds are fellows apt for hiding.
Partridge, quail and grouse look like
pile of leaves till they flutter; the
creeperS are striped and dark, like the
bark on which they crawl; chicadeeS
and juncoeS and horned larks are little
dun wiSpS of nothing as they fit in
visible among the black-and-silver of
withered weeds. You can, if you see a
plan in all things, argue that they are
so in order to escape observation. Or
you can maintain the less mystical posi-
ton that being so, they have survived.
Certainly many gaudy birds have failed
to survive like the Carolina Parroquet
which once roamed as far north as the
Great Lakes, while juncoeS seem to me
to increase every year; at least nothing
is diminishing their hardy little bands.
The fall of the leaves has brought to
light once more the yearly, touching
spectacle of the empty nest l do not

through which the rude wind whistles.

Your Baby and Mine
By MYRTLE MEYER ELDRED.

Why mothers cling to methods that
daily prove useless is an unanswered
conumdrum It belongs to the school
of IF at first you don't succeed, try,
try againl" That may be a fine
motto for oneself, but what dooms 1t
to failure, when applied to forcing re-
luctant children to eat, is that the
methods themselves are wrong ones,
and so they remain repeatedly unsuc-
cessful.
Every mother discovers very early in
her child's life that she cannot force
that small mortal to accept one bite
he doesn't want to take. She can't
spank him, or shame him, or wheedle
him, or force him and bring about
success. Accept this fact, for it is a
fact, and having accepted it discard
all such methods. Then you have
made one big step forward and your
fight for success is half won.
Mrs. G. H. P. says what hundreds
Of you have said to me, my sisters
child is 3Ia years old and only weighs
Is pounds. She seems healthy enough,
but she will not eat. The only things
her mother admits she will eat without
coaxing are bacon and candy. She will
drink a cup of milk at each meal but
refuses all solid food. She has tried
a game Of eating but has had to give
up in despair. What shall she do?"
First Of all. the child needs a thor
ough physical examination to discover
If there are any reasons for the lack
of appetite. Anemia, adenoid over
growths, tonSil infections, lack of fresh
air, too much play and consequent
fatigue and too little sleep-any of
these may be responsible for loss of
appetite. But in many cases it is just
bad habit, allowed to grow thoroughly
vicious because the mother has en-
ployed all the useless methods, men
toned above, to bring it to an end.
One OF the most helpful (but not al
ways feasible) suggestions is to send the
child away for visit. New surround
ings, new food, new persons to deal with
her, usually result in her accepting
three robust meals day. Once the
habit of eating is begun or revived it
should continue even in the child's own
home.
There must be no Ibetween-meal
lunching for the child with a poor ap-
petite. At this age the child loves help
ing IN the kitchen. Cleaning and cut
tlng up her very own vegetables, Squeez-
ing oranges, or quartering them, helping
10 turn her own lamb chop, will lend
these foods an allure that can never
surround any Of her mothers concoc-
tons.
The use of small dishes, set on a small
table. suited to the child's size, will make
eating a new and important interest.
Small amounts on these plates so that
she acquires the habit of cleaning the
plate, no fussing at her for not eating.

mony pleasing to her We think DR..
