Lumber Making
Methods Change

Conditions in the lumber manu-
featuring industry, as in all other
industries, have changed with the
assing of the years. An elaborate
science of wood has developed and
the arts of lumber manufacture and
utilization have become highly tech
meal. Lumber is no longer 'just
lumber Its available species are
many and the forms multitudinous.
ldethods of lumber manufacture are
far advanced over those of even a
few years ago. Saw mills are
equipped with better machinery, ope.
rated by more skillful men. Much
more of the tree is utilized for lum-
Der than in the old wasteful days of
too plentiful timber trees. No longer
is only the finest part of the tree
used, whether for pig pens or interi-
or finish. There are now many
grades of lumber for many uses.

OUTLETS FOR

HAVE ATTENTION

The placing of facilities for tel
ephonc wires and apparatus during
construction results in general i'm
provement of the residences in that
better appearance is secured by
concealing the wires and some of
the apparatus; additional telephones
when desired can readily be placed
at convenient locations; protection
is afforded to the wires and appara-
tus, thereby serving to prevent in
terruptions to the telephone service !;
and the service arrangements can be
changed without marring the walls
and woodwork.
With the growing appreciation on
the part of telephone subscribers of
the cOnveniences to be obtained
from adequate telephone service a
greater number of telephones is be-
ing installed in homes. 1t is, there
fore, important that the facilities
provided be adequate for all of the
telephones that may be desired in
the future as well as initially.
With the view of laying out the
conduit and other facilities requir-
ed to the best advantage the tele

PERENNIAL WILL
GROW WELL, IN
LOCAL. GARDENS
BY MARGARET WHEATLEY

1t is getting a bit late to plant
seed for summer Towering, but there
are some of the annuals, and one
perennial in particular, that is worth
consideration.
Zinnias can be planted for some
time yet, also Cosmos, which is won.
Gerfully dainty, both in foliage and
flower, and the colors are Just bold
enough, and the flowers have just
the right degree of old fashioned
charm, to make them most suitable
for room with chintz slip covers,
grass rugs, and cool colorful linen.
The perennial which deserves to
lie planted now, is Vinca (periwin-
kle). 1t comes in mixtures. but
should flowers appear which you do
not wish, you may give the plants
to friend who might like them, or
destroy them. They are among the
very few cut flowers that last well
here in mid summer. They will keep
for week, if supplied with fresh
water Their foliage is so attractive
that even after all the flowers have
dropped, their green coloring is
quite inviting.
Ninca will grow here in Imperial
Valley the year around. If at any
time you should desire to remove
some of the plants from the garden
to the house, they may be trans
planted with success, even after
they are grown. 1t likes the shade.

TAKU LEAVES
 FOR YAKUTAT
May Co On to Cordova,
 Bristol Bay -Gorst Plane Due Here Tomorrow

With R. R. Payne, official ot the New England Fish Company and H. L. Faulkner, local attorney as passengers, the seaplane Taku Pilot R. E. Ellis left here at 6.3o p. m. yesterday for Yakutat.
 What the schedule from there would be is not definitely known here. As there is a probability that a Bristol Bay canneryman now aboard the Yukon, would take the Taku from Cordova to Naknek tomorrow morning it is thought likely that the plane went to Cor dova from Yakutat.
 Signals from the steamer Yukon were to indicate to the plane whether or not she was to go to Cordova. In the event the Taku does not make the Bristol Bay trip she was to have left Yakutat at noon today for Juneau, via Chat ham.
 Mir Payne and MT. Faulkner planned to remain at Cordova if the Taku flew to Naknek, and return here Friday.
 A Gorst plane, flying a party from Seattle to Cordova, was to have left Seattle this morning for the north, according to word re- ceived here. Passengers desiring to make the trip from Juneau would necessarily get in touch with C. L. Scott at the Ingersoll Hotel in Ketchikan this evening.
 No hour is set for the arrival of the Gorst plane here. She may continue to Bristol Bay after her passengers leave at Cordova.

KETCH|KAN BOY
 DIES SUDDENLY
Mic key Taylor, Who Fought in Recent Smoker
 Here, Passes Away

Mickey Taylor, young Ketchikan amateur boxer and known here, died at his home last Sunday from blood poisoning, according to word received in this city Monday. He had been i'll but short time and his death was unexpected.
 Taylor, it was said, was recover ing from tonsillectomy at home. He was progressing satisfactorily and was not apparently in any danger. His parents left him alone for a while, while they were out for an automobile ride. When they returned, Taylor had passed away.
 In a recent American Legion smoker Taylor appeared on the card here, and won his tilt. He is well known both here and in Ketchikan, as he came here sev- eral time some years ago for inter- school meets.
 Most of his life he lived in the First City, and he completed his education there. He was we'll liked by his many friends both here and in Ketchikan. Taylor was about 21 years of age.

ELKS TO PLAY LAST GAME OF
 HALF TONIGHT
Will Meet American Legion Team - Moose-Veteran
 Tangle Draws Spotlight

With the first half of the City League baseball season almost com pleted, the Elks will make their final appearance at 6:3o o'clock this evening against the American Legion.
 The Moose Legion misunder- standing, which has never been set tied, and which has left one game hanging in the air undecided, takes on greater importance as the sea- son progresses.
 Should that tilt be decided in fa- vor of the Legion, the Vets can lose all remaining games and still tie with the Moose. On the other hand, if the Moose be favored by the League officials 1t will be a close ending. Disregarding the un- decided tilt, the Vets will be either one or two games ahead of the Moose after tonight, depending whether they lose or win from the Elks, while the Moose and Legion have three uncompleted games be- tween them on the first half sched- ule.
 President Karl Theile of the City League said today the officials probably will meet this evening fol- lowing the game to make de-
 
 deal between the Elks and Moose which caused the disagreement be- tween the Moose and Legion.
 Koski is slated to start on the mound for the Vets tonight, with Coughlin receiving. For the Elks, Junge will probably be the first heaver, while Blake will be behind the bat.

WHILE IN COLLEGE eanu

LOS ANGELES = Harold Red Grange, idol of twenty million foot ball-crazy Americans, is working in a night club.
 The feet that once raced to fame over frost-bitten football fields are now tapping out fox trots in jazz land.
 To blase Broadway, which has seen murderers, champion boxers and lady aviators become vaude- vile headliners and smilingly watched Russian grand duchesses metamorphosed into tearoom host esses, the news is no surprise.
 But Main Street and a hundred college campuses are dazed to hear that Americas greatest halfback has become master of ceremonies in a California cabaret.
 Since the mighty Grange emerg- ed from the portals of the Univer- sity of Illinois several years ago he has been in turn a professional football box-office attraction, a sports promoter and a movie star But all his post-college activities have been identified one way or another with the athletic activities that first screamed his name across newspaper front pages.
 Even his picture debut was made in movie built around the college gridiron career. But since he first turned his back upon amateur sport six years ago, Red has been dogged by a curiously persistent understudy star.
 His efforts to capitalize trans continental marathons and other ventures with his friend, c. C. (Cash-andCarry) Pyle, cost him q fortune.
 After making a film or two, his movie contract was not renewed. Hollywood magnates said that Red Grange, as a picture star, was a flop or, at best, momentary box office name.
 From his first intercollegiate football game in 1922 Oranges bril- liant end runs, drop kicks and line plunges marked him as a coming The following three years with Illinois confirmed this predic- tion. The West had never seen such an amazing athletic perform CT. Single-handed he again and again sent the powerful Western elevens down to defeat Coming East he surpassed himself in 1925 against Pennsylvania.
 At the end of that year Grange quit amateur football and Illinois. Pyle, his manager, rushed him into a schedule of two or more games each week. Sporting experts pre- oicted the red-thatched iceman from Illinois would suffer a break cown. Today at the age of twenty seven, Red" Grange is through with football forever. The mil lions he drew to football stadiums may only see him now in the smoke-laden atmosphere of night club.
