We are starting something new

we are going to do it.
The richest and biggest peo-

CONCERNING THE NOTES
THE SECURITY WE OFFER

We plan to improve our
property in Leigh Street, so as
to make it conform to the plan
shown above. As planned the
building will be 55 feet wide
and 120 feet deep. 1t will have
a large entrance hall 9 feet
wide and 81 feet long. The
office on one side and the
drivers work room on the
other, are each 81 x 10. Just to
the rear of these is the women's
toilet with modern comfort
conveniences, including shower
bath.
To one side back on the alley,
is the boiler room and coal bin
2S x 81 feet, and containing
sufficient space to store a car
load of coal. Next to this is the
store room and mems toilet. On
the alley at the opposite side is
the receiving room, 16 X Fl. All
laundry is unloaded and the
clothes marked here, then sent
directly to the washers in the
adjoining, or main laundry

Huge Money Outlay

How much is this?
It can be visualized in terms of
houses.
Imagine a roadway extending
from Portland. Me, to Jacksonville,
Fla, thence across the continent TO
san Diego. Cal. northward to
Seattle. and eastward to Portland,
Me. Another road extends diagonal
ly from Portland, Me, to San Diego.
These two roads make a total of
about 1900 miles.
Build a $4,000 house every forty
feet on both sides of these two
roads. a total of 3,6O0080 houses.
The total cost of these houses would
be equal to the amount the United
States will spend on postwar costs
before the World war is paid for
finally.
But money outlay is only
fraction Of the total economic loss
sJill to be paid. An average of 25,
600 veterans have been constantly
in hospital since 1918. The nation,
therefore, has suffered a loss in
productive man-pOWer equal to that
which would have been caused by

FRESNO Cal, Jan. 30. - Four blasts, showering out 25,00O gallons of gasoline, starting from battery of boilers, converted the Kettleton Mills Absorption Plant of the Pe- trcleum Securities Company into a miniature inferno and leaving in the wake wreckage of the half million dollar plant, one dead and three injured human victims.
 The exact cause of the explosion is not known.
 Charles Phillips, of Los Angeles, oil worker, died as a result of burns received in attempting to shut off the flow of gasoline. He shouted warning a minute before the engineer shut off the fires to prevent the fire sweeping through the plant.

SMALL CATCH OF FUR IS PREDICTED

An exceedingly small catch of fur is predicted by Charles Goldstein, well known merchant and fur dealer of Juneau, who returned on the Queen last night from a buy ing trip to SkagWay, Haines and Sitka. There was practically no fur to be had, he said.
 A short trapping season is the principle factor in this fur shortage, MT. Goldstein believes. The open season for mink is 30 days.
