UNITED FOOD TO TAKE FUR
 STORE SPACE
Delicatessen to Be Added and Fruits and Vege-
 tables Enlarged

1 With the completion of extensive changes now under way, the Unit ed Food Company will be able to boast of being 8 modern food de- partment store.
 The storeroom in the Goldstein building, that has been occupied by the Charles Goldstein & Co.'S fur store, has been leased by the grocery firm and will be added to the present quarters. The addi- tional area will provide spacious quarters for a new delicatessen de- partment and an enlarged fruit and vegetable department.
 Three Distinct Divisions
 "Departmentalizing our store into three distinct divisions-groceries, delicatessen goods and fresh fruit and vegetables-will enable us to give our customers much better service than in the past and the benefit of lower prices through greater purchasing power" said s. A. Light, general manager of the United Food Company, today We have been badly cramped for room owing to the unexpectedly rapid growth of our business, and in making our expansion plans we decided to add to our present lines thoroughly modern delicatessen department. This is something that we believe will appeal to the people of Juneau.
 Salads and Other Delicacies
 We shall keep on hand large, choice stock of salads, meats, cheeses and other food delicacies, and in this department will feature Manning's coffee, fresh roasted in Seattle and ground in our store as wanted, and teas, spices, etc."
 The fruit and vegetable depart ment will occupy an important place in the new store arrange ment, said MT Light.
 , According to present plans, the United Food Company will blossom forth as a full-fledged food em- porium in it's enlarged quarters | the latter part of next week.

Pianist, Who Gives Concert Sunday, Worked Hard
 for Success

To give residents and visitors in Juneau an opportunity to meet John c. Manning, eminent pianist. who will be heard in concert here Sunday night, public reception will be held at 8 o'clock this even- ing under auspices of the Business and Professional Women's Club in | the Northern Light Presbyterian Church. MT. Manning arrived in the city on the steamship Alameda this afternoon. He was greeted at the wharf by members of the Club.
 Everything is in readiness for his concert.
 From the advance sale of tickets large attendance is expected. Tickets may be obtained from school children.
 The net proceeds of the concert will go into the scholarship fund that the Business and Professional Women's Club offers every year to a girl graduate of the Juneau high school
 Worked Hard to Succeed
 MT. Manning 5 an American pianist who has climbed to the top by sheer perseverance.
 He was born in Indiana, and is a descendant of an old colonial family. He started music early in life with a music teacher as most children do. AS a boy he was much in demand as an accompan- ist because of his sympathetic touch and fine sense of phrasing, which has been the feature that the critics of his more mature years have so loudly praised. But his father objected to his son fol- lowing a musical career, and re- fused to pay for his musical edu- cation. Just as in his boyhood days he had to earn the money for his music lessons, so he had to earn money for advanced musi- cal instruction later when he defi- nitely decided to follow a musical career.
 Studied Under Exacting Teacher
 When ready for college influen- ces led him to the University of Kansas, where on the side he studied music with a thorough but exacting master. Later he went to Boston. Here he studied with the best and. received from them every encouragement. It was here that he became the pupil of Americas foremost pianist and composer, E. A. Macdowell. Later Manning went to Paris and became the pupil of Isadore Philippe, to whom the

GIVES FINE RESPONSE
 TO ROLL CALL
Preliminary Reports from Workers Indicate Town
 Will Exceed Quota

Canvassers in the local Red Cross Roll Call campaign have reported fine response from the public with indications that the commun- ity's quota will be attained with out difficulty, it was announced today by B. D. Stewart. Roll Call Chairman for the Juneau Chapter. No complete reports have been received from any of the local workers, but preliminary estimates indicate better than normal sub scriptions.
 In one large residential district, the workers reported it only par tially covered but it has already exceeded last years total, MT. Stew art said. In the business section. it was reported that workers were ahead of 1880. also.
 Taking advantage of the fact that today was mail day, with a boat in port from Seattle, the local committee established table ir the post office lobby in charge of Mrs. Dan Ross who was kept busy most of the day giving member ship receipts and issuing Red Cross buttons. i
 Workers in the Capitol also re- ported uniform success and it is expected it will be represented 100 per cent strong in the final tabu- lationS.

American owes his masterful tech nical training
 Returning home, he soon became prominent in musical circles in and around Boston. Gradually his fame as pianist broadened. Calls came from New York, Pennsylvania and various northeastern states.
 In 1911 MT. Manning went to San Francisco, where he has since resided And just as in New Eng land, the public has been equally as enthusiastic whenever he has paused long enough in his busy life as a teacher to give concerts. In fact always the general cry has been just like Paul Pearson's in the Swathmore CPenn) Talent: Give us more like Manning, the best thing of the season."

Third Degree Methods
 Defied by Broody Hens

KNOXVILLE, Tenn, Nov. 13. - Cruel treatment and third degree methods gain nothing in break ing up" broody hens, says A. J. Caldwell, University of Tennessee extension poultryman.
 Hanging the hens by their feet, dipping them in a creek or pond holding them under a water faucet, and confining them under box or tub without feed or water are some of the methods disparaged.
 Chadwell says the broody hen should be placed in coop the first night she remains on the nest, as any delay will increase the length of time she will stay broody.

and held it Through appropria-

results of her recent tour of the
Kentucky coal fields near Harlan

tDhic1I thousands of men, tDonIe1I,
and children are living and tOork-

By MARGARET LANE
NEW YORK, Nov. "a (I.N.S.)
When I travelled down to the
Kentucky coalfields last week
I was warned to be both dis
Greet and inconspicuous. Har-
Ian county has a bad name ;
there have been too many kill
ings and mutinies among the
miners, too many threats and
protests from the owners, to
make it a safe place for the
curious.
I went down quietly and OBJ
scurely and alone, determined to
find out for myself, as an impair
tial outsider, whether or not these
rumors of starvation and horror
and violence in the Kentucky
mountains were true.
A DesOIate Country
At every curve in the hills you
see the spindly black timber Of
the mines, gaunt wooden tipples
carrying the coal from the shaft
mouths high up in the hills to the
strings of trucks in the valley. At
the foot of every mine, spreading
both ways and up the creviceS OF
the mountains, are desolate out
breaks Of wooden shackS. These
are the mining camps.
The first thing that impressed
me in Harlan was the heavy at
mosphere Of suspicion and fear. I
had never before been in a town
where every stranger is narrowly
eyed, where conversation stops
when you wander into a drug
store, and the man behind the
coffee counter stares and then
avoids you when you start a con-
versation.
The only serious conversation
I managed to have in the town
itself, before I went to the mines,
was with three young pastors.
ministers of different non-Con-
formist churches in Harlan.
Warned Not to Go
At first the young pastors
deprecated the idea of my going
down those valleys, round EvartS
way and up to Black Mountain.
at all. There was nothing to see.
