"a New Complaint

Answer to an amended complaint
was filed at the county clerks Of
flee this morning by Imperial Irri-
CATION district officials and certain
employees in the damage suit by E.
L. Osborne and Myrtle M Osborne
The Osbornes asked for $4,000
damages for the death of a minor
child drowned in a canal heading
May T. 1880.
That Osborne knew of the dam
ger to the child who was forced to
cross a bridge over a heading near
her home when returning from
school, was alleged in the answer.
He saw the girl alight from a school
bus, it was alleged, and should have
met her every Gay at the bridge.
Osborne, an employee of the dis
trict, would have had authority to
construct a certain handrail to pre-
tect the child from dange:, it was
explained in the answer.
The district asked in the answer
that the plaintiffs take nothing by
their suit.

DERFECT cake frostings arc
l easy to make if you under
stand the part each ingredient
plays and the proper handling of
the syrup during and after cook
ing.
What is a perfect frosting?
First of all comes the matter of
fine flavor. This means not only
the use of fine materials, but also
perfect blending of the flavor Of
the frosting with that of the cake.
Second in Importance is texture.
The frosting must feel fne-grain-
ed and creamy on the tongue.
Furthermore, the perfect frosting
must hold its shape, have a glossy
appearance, remain moist on
standing and cut without crack
ing.
These much-desired qualities
may be obtained in several ways.
but the surest and most simple
method of securing a delectable
frosting is to use light corn syrup
with sugar. The corn syrup gives
no flavor to the frosting but makes
and keeps it soft and smooth. Be
sure TO measure accurately, how
ever, for too much corn syrup
makes the frosting gummy and too
soft.
The length of time or tempera-
ture of the frosting syrup is an i'm
portant factor in the making Of
frostings Sugar-cookery ther-
mometers are a decided help for
the making of uniformly perfect
frostings. since they eliminate all
guesswork as to whether the syrup
is cooked enough.

for several days or a week.

it for several days or a week.
OF course. you know you can
change the flavor of the frosting
by using different favoring ex-
tracts. For instance. particu-
larry delicious frosting for a
devils food cake is made by add
ing TOUR or FIVE drops of oil OF
peppermint in place of vanilla.
Then if YOU cover the frosting with
a coating OF bitter chocolate, you
will have a cake that makes a full
dessert by itself Melt the choco-
late over warm water and brush
over the frosting on the cake. Be
sure the frosting is thoroughly
cooled. Use a timber spatula or q
pastry brush to spread the choco-
late.
For Chocolate Frosting
To make a chocolate frosting.
add three squares of bitter choco-
late to the sugar and water and
corn syrup mixture when it is put
on to cook. Follow directions for
making white frosting all the way
through.
You can use this type of frost
ing in a pastry tube to make all
sorts of frills. Or you can sprinkle
the frosting with grated cocoanut,
finely chopped nuts. chocolate
shot" or the tiny candies called
dragees. TO hold candles on a
birthday cake, this frosting is ex-
cellent. for it will not melt from
the heat nor break into jagged
cracks when the holders are pulled
from it.
Another thing about the beat
ing: a large platter and a wire
whisk are easier To handle than n
bowl and a rotary beater in case
YOU do not use an electric beater.
You cannot complete the entire
beating process with rotary~beat-
or. the final beating must be done
with n whisk, so |, myself, prefer
10 begin and finish with the whisk.

Getting a bridge across the chan nel to connect the Island highway with the Mendenhall Glacier road on the mainland and thus provide a travel outlet for car owners was the principal subject of discussion before the Douglas Chamber of Commerce at it's regular meeting last night.
 The proposition now has the sup port of the Juneau Chamber, it was reported and immediate steps are to be taken to present appropriate da- ta and resolutions to the powers that be for securing the bridge.
 The recent discovery of rich min eral outcroppings on the Island was related at the meeting and the lklihood of Douglas occupying the limelight as a mining town once again looms nearer and nearer.
 Interesting talks were made by Aaron E. Johnson and Superintend- ent of the Douglas schools, c. H. Bowman. Several new names were added to the membership roll bringing the list to over 25.
 Four letters of inquiry from the states were reported received and answered by Secretary Feero.

DEFY ELEMENTS SEARCHING FOR
 WEATHER DATA


 CLEVELAND, O., Aug. 28.-The aviator now has a new and un- limited field in which to try his courage.
 It is in the service of the United States Weather Bureau, which has just begun to use the airplane for daily studies of the atmosphere at high attitudes to improve both long and short-range forecasts.
 The studies are being made at Cleveland, Chicago, D Dallas and Omaha
 The aviator, regardless of wealth CT or cloud conditions, climbs sometimes for several miles, with instruments to record temperature, pressure and humidity.
 He has found the atmosphere sometimes very treacnerous, as Ralph Wensinger, pilot for the Weather Bureau at the Cleveland Municipal airport, can tell you.
 Into Thunderhead
 One day Wensinger drove his plane into "thunderhead." Tha craft was suddenly limited 400 feet minute, thrust sidewise nearly TO miles an hour, and then forced into a dive at a 45 degree angle before he could right it.
 A week later he was up 16,OO0 feet, where he found an excessively dense fog. The temperature was at freezing.
 As ice formed on the wings the plane fell 1000 feet before the pilot could right it.
 Exploration of the upper atmos- phere, c, George Andrus, Chief of the Weather Bureau at the airport points out, is not new.
 Since 1898 kites carrying record ing instruments have been sent aloft. Balloons also have been used.
 But balloons can not go above SSA boAll oA1 RA d1lQ other conditions, kites collapse.

FARM BOARD HAS LAWYER
 FOR MEMBER
By FRANK I. WELLER
Associated Press Farm Editor)

lASSCcldUeu freSS farm EultOT1 i WASHINGTON, D. C., Aug. 28.- Frank Evans, selected by President Hoover to fill the Farm Board va cancy created by the retirement of c. c. Tsague, is one of the worlds silent workers.
 A lawyer by profession, he has worked effectively, but in the back ground, for numerous legal attain ments for agriculture from the promotion of cooperative farm mar { keting in his native Utah to off ciating as marketing counsel and Executive Secretary of the Ameri- can Farm Bureau Federation.
 He resigned as Secretary of the Federation in 1927 and last year relinquished his position as gen. eral marketing counsel to practice law in Salt Lake City, but his name and his work are familiar wherever agriculture has fought it's battles.
 Notable Success
 It is said of the American farmer that no class of men on earth is so hard to bring together, even in their own interest Yet that is the thing at which Evans has made his most notable success.
 Farmers like this sincerely re- ligious, almost shy Westerner who has spent 25 of this 58 years guid- ing their efforts for economic ad- vancement
 In late years few farm conven- tion shave taken action on a diffi- cult problem without some leader rising to ask, What does Frank Evans think about this?"
 Evans is best known for his in- sight into the nature of men when they wrangle over ways and means.
 Is Peacemaker His ability as a peacemaker had early foundation His first commu- nity service was to keep the min utes of rural meetings at his fa- ther's home, a typical pioneer cabin which had been made over as a two-room brick house with a frame kitchen.
 From this modest environment in Coalville, Utah, Evans went to- ward manhood successively as a ranch hand. a miner, village gro cery proprietor, laborar in Utah beet fields, school teacher and law 1 yer.
 He has served as County Attor- ney, City Attorney and State Sena- tor
 During the war he was with the Red Cross overseas, and his wife, also an attorney, was with him as Red Cross nurse.
