JANE COWL
BOOKED HERE

Jane Cowl, in the new comedy
Jenny" by Margaret Aver Barnes
and Edward Sheldon, comes to Eng
lish's Monday night. March "a, for
a week with matinee on Wednesday
and Saturday.
An interesting picture of present.
day American life, this play pro-
vides Miss CoWl with q modern role
Of engaging charm and daring. Not
so many years ago a Jenny Valen-
tine could have been seen on the
stage only in the role of a villain
eSS. Today she is a heroine, win
ming support and sympathy by her
fortnight character, her courage in
0ut-facing conventions to secure the
happiness Of the man she loves.
Il Is John Il. Weatherby to whom
jenny gives her heart-a man whose
self-made success has resulted IN
increasingly selfish demands from
his family for more and yet more
money. His frivolous wife sur
rounds herself by syncophanic ad-
mirers.
Spcndthrift son and thrin-seeking
daughters have no interest In him
beyond his signature on a check.
Neglected, bewildered, lonely, he
is captiVated and then quite liter
aily captured by Jenny, who COM
ulenceS her romance in a spirit of
disinterested fair play, only to find
that her sympathetic appreciation
of John has become a deeply emo
tional love.
From the lighter moods Of the
earlier scenes to the dramatic di-
rectnesS Of the last act, Miss Cowl
invests the character of Jenny with
that earnestness and spontaneity
which only the great ones in the
theater are able to beStow.
Guy Standing IS Weatherby.
Katherine Emmett portrays the
shallow wife; Joyce Carey and
Helen Brooks, as the daughters, and
Ben Lakeland as the son, are con-
vincingly irresponsible young mod
ems. Robert Lowe as Cole, Coburn
Goodwin, Lewis Martin and Charles

THOUSANDS OF CARIBOU
 SEEN BY TUNER, ANDERSON

Geo. Anderson, owner of the An derson Music Shoppe of Juneau sent word from Eagle, where he is at the present time, informing the Dawson News that he saw a herd of caribou extending for ten miles, along the Yukon, near the confluence of TwelYemile creek. He stated that he got within 25 yards of the run while in his skiff and could have taken an excellent moving picture but he was minus a camera. It look ed to George to be about million caribou in the run and he advised Dawsonites to go down and film the animals. Mir. Anderson expects to return to Juneau from his tour sometime about the middle of this month.

Enthusiastic over the news thus far received from the country re- garding preparations that are being made to participate. both in the na- tional capital and the states, in the 1882 series Of celebrations of the two hundredth anniversary of the birth of George Washington-her- aided as the greatest celebration thus far known in history" the as soeiate directors and the members of the George Washington Bicenten- nial Commission no longer have any doubt that it will break all records.
 While there is not the slightest doubt in the minds of the two asso- eiate directors of the bicentennial, Lieut.. Col. U. s. Grant, Sd, and Rep resentatiye Sol Bloom, of New York, that every state and territory will be eager to participate in an appro- priate manner in the series of cele- brations both in Washington City anu hl uuAlSf tue ulIcSlOIS want IL understood that the time is growing short in which to prepare for cele- brations of such scope and magni- tude.
 Nearly one-half of the states and territories have begun the work of preparation in one way or another, but it remains for the the remain der still to ''get busy" In the first little group of 14 to name local bi- centennial commissions and start to work were the District of Columbia, Maryland and Virginia.
 Of the local commissions that have been named some have been created by acts of the state legisla- lures, while some, in states where the legislatures have not been in session, have been named by the governor as a citizens or govern or's committee, to be confirmed by act of the legislatures when they convene at their next sessions. But meantime, these committees, how ever they have been named, have begun to function in cooperation with the United States commission, whose headquarters are in Wash ington, D. c.

 At the same time announcement was made that survey of the re- maining two miles of the Texas Creek highway to the Chickamin glacier will also be undertaken.
 What with the present work now going on in extending the Texas Creek road, and now the announce ment in connection with the Salmon river road, the Alaskan government is spending pretty close to one quarter of a million dollars in the Hyder district this year. and the re- sultant employment for large crews of men will have a favorable effect upon business and living conditions in Hyder this coming winter.
 Canadian business men in Stew art, while jubilant with the Hyder people, express keen regret that their own government cannot see its way clear to match the Alaskan government with a similar road pro- gram on this side of the line.

CITY GAS CONVENIENCE GOES
 MILES BEYOND GAS MAINS

City gas used everywhere from cook stoves to room heaters by four out of five city families, is now talk ing country homes by storm.
 Standard Flamo, condensed nat ural gas, is rapidly being introduced in the Wrangell district by the Standard Oil Company of California. And there are mighty few things that can bring more comfort to folks in the country than this city gas, the quickest and cheapest fuel for everyday cooking and heating = ready for instant use without in- stallation of gas mains.
 In ushering Standard Flamo into suburban and small town homes, the Standard Oil Company, one of the pioneers in developing home gas plants, is offering a product proven in scores of California households during the past year. This new fuel gas, condensed to liquid and stored in steel cylinders. is delivered in town or miles out by Company trucks. Two gas cylinders, enclosed in an attractive metal cabinet, may be installed outdoors and connected, by ordinary piping, with modern gas ranges, water heaters and other gas appliances that mean so much less housekeeping drudgery.
 Time was when country women just had to get used to carrying wood or coal and shoveling ashes, but those days are about to go out of style. With Standard Flamo being delivered everywhere and compar- able to city gas in both quality and cost - there's not much excuse any more for spending long hours over a hot cook-stove. for exorbitant fuel bills or late meals.

ALASKA4T0 SPEND $100,O00
 ON SALMON RIVER HIGHWAY
Stewart, B. C., News)

While the Stewart Board of Trade has virtually been down on it's knees imploring the B. c. Depart ment of Public Works to start road construction campaign in this section in order to relieve the unem- ployment situation, the Alaska Roads Department quietly and un- ostentatiously has come out with the announcement that an estimat- ed S100,000 is to be spent this year on the Salmon River road. The news, which was received in Hyder this week, has engendered in the Alaskan town a feeling of jubilation equalling that which greeted the Big Missouri mill announcement a few weeks ago, and as the proposed work will keep a large crew busy until nearly Christmas the result cannot be anything but beneficial to the whole district.
 According to L. W. Turoff, public wsrks engineer in charge of Alaska roads, bids will be opened on Sept. 3rd for the widening, surfacing and graVelIing of the Salmon river road from the Riverside Mill to the Inter national boundary line near Thir- teen Mile. It is the intention to put this road in the same condition as the present stretch from Hyder to Riverside, and anyone who has been over this part in the past month knows what a fine stretch of road it is. The estimated cost of the new work is s1OO,OOO.OO. Three crews will be put to work, as it is the in tention to rush the project to com
