We certainly can't stay here"
Ten minutes later she and Pear
son were in the car. The motor
sputtered, then settled down to a
steady purr and they were of in the
darkness.
1t was difficult driving. Pearson
and Cherry both kept their eyes on
the road ahead. 1t was still raining,
the drops coming down in a steady
drizzle.
The road that had been caked
with dust before the rain was Slip
perry and treacherous now. Part
Of the time Cherry could see only a
few feet ahead.
There was little conversation.
Pearson was intent on his driving
and the little girl had no wish to
divert him. Once he spoke of a
noise in the mechanism of the car
Doesn't sound right" he said.
well, if the old bus can get us
through this I guess she'll deserve
a little garage attention"
Cherry listened. Here was new
prospect of danger. you don't
think it's anything serious, do you?"
she asked.
Pearson gave her quick glance.
Not unless it gets worse" he an
swered shortly. His gaze returned
to the road ahead
How different he was from the
eager, impetuous Max of a short
time ago. Cherry, relieved, was
nevertheless puzzled at the change.
MaXs manner was completely i'm
personal. He scarcely seemed to
know she was there. Once Or twice
his absorption seemed almost rude.
She asked the time and was told
it was almost 10 o'clock After that
they settled down to long silence.
1t was Cherry who cried out at the
first sign Of lights.
Look, Maxi" she exclaimed. do
you suppose that's Scott Junction?
Oh, if We can only telephone"
It was the junction, rural neigh
borhood including half a dozen
stores, garage and filing station.
Pearson halted the car in front of
the garage and went inside.
There's a telephone" he an
nounced when he returned a few
minutes later. do you want to
come inside? I've put call in for

A tiny corner of the garage had
been walled off as an office. Inside

you fed up on it?'
Why, Dan, what do you mean?"
The same old thing over and
over. Day after day! I've had

To creatures of the Ant Mems size, the dense
forest of thorns surrounding their country was
far from impenetrable. But believing it
stretched endlessly away they rarely entered
it. To Tarzan, however. this thorny barrier
presented a difficult problem. STILL he never

was in no great hurry to attempt it, since he

THERE still are some people who
j. will dart across a busy thor
oughfare, regardless of traffic, and
occasionally they escape miracu-
lousy without being injured.
Some people play bridge in this
same fashion-they simply will not
stop and think. Take for example
in the following hand-there isn't
any real difficulty in making three
no trump, but the play all hinges
on the first trick.
The jaywalker will win the first
trick with the lowest card possible
and overlook the fact that an en-

FAIRBANKS REVIEWS DRIVE
 FOR INTERNATL HIGHWAY

The Fairbanks Chamber of Com merce Is continuing with renewed vigor the drive to bring about early construction of the International highway. The Chamber will print pamphlets to be sent to every mem-- Der in Congress and to every other agency which could possibly aid the project.
 It was suggested to the Chamber that in view of the fact that the main difficulty seems to be in get ting British Columbia to finance it's part of the road some effort should be made to interest big automobile and oil companies with the idea that they might advance part of the nec- essary money when they learn the International highway would open up 2,O00 miles of new roads on which their products would be used.

Jerry Desmond Saves
 Child From Cremation

Jerry Desmond, ten-year-old fos- ter son of Frank Desmond, saved his five-year-old cousin from being trap ped with certain death in a fire last Saturday noon which destroyed the home on Church street of, Mrs. the home on church street of Mrs. whom he had spent the night.
 Mrs. Johnson, who is employed at the Reliance Shrimp Company, was expected home at noon so Jer- ry built a fire in the kitchen stove. When it did not burn to his satisfac- tion, he went to the wood shed, found a can of gasoline which he thought contained coal oil, and pour ed the contents on the smoldering fire. An explosion resulted which threw the room into a mass of flames. Jerry ran out the door when hearing Tiny crying he dashed back through the flames, rescued her from behind the door where she was crouching terrified and dragged her to safety. Before other help could have reached her she would certainly have burned to death. In Jerry's dash back his clothes caught on fire, as gasoline had dropped on him when he raised the can to the stove. He was burned painfully but not seriously on his hands, face and chest. He is being cared for at the Wrangell General Hospital.
 The house which was owned by Charles. Benjamin, and carried no insurance, was complete loss. as were all the household pos sessions and personal effects of the Johnsons.

Sing Lee Murdered
 At Petersburg Home
Special to the ,ntineD

PETERSBURG, Ala a, Nov. 30 Sing Lee, age so year and prom inent Chinese merchant in Alaska for forty years and in Petersburg for twenty years, met death Satur- day morning from criminal means by an unknown person or persons.
 The murder occurred in his room between 8 o'clock Friday night and 10 o'clock Saturday morning, at which time he was found by Frank DeBruck, who after building the fires and doing the chores around the place, went upstairs to investi- gate why Sing Lee had not come down at his usual time.
 The old man was found lying stretched out dead. An investiT = tion of the coroner's jury deT 'n- ed that Sing Lee had been nil lsr- ed after an autopsy performe, e4by pr. Benson who stated that the pulmonary artery was ruptured and the five lower rips on the right side were broken. Two gashes were found on both the left and right side of the head.
 The murder is regarded here as very mysterious as the old man had no known enemies.
 He is survived by his wife and two children in China to whom he had willed his property, and by a stepson in Petersburg. The only money found on his person was three dollars in one pocket.

Air Photos Used

Air photo compilations played a more important part than ever be- fore in speeding the work of chart ing certain coastal waters. These airplane photographs, tied to out standing landmarks in an area of which a geodetic control survey has been made, supply details quickly, accurately and inexpensiyely when compared to comprehensive ground methods. A large part of San Fran cisco Bay and of the Sacramento and san Joaquin delta were covered by air photographs for use in the con- struction of charts of that area.
 Captain Patton mentions various surveys made of the coastlines, in tracoastal waterways, and harbors of the United States and its dependen- cies, depth soundings taken, obstruc- tions to navigation charted, and ob- servations made of tides and cur rents; with charts being ever ex- tended seaward to meet the exacting demands of modern commerce.
 Locate Navigation Menaces
 Photographic work on Georges Bank, an area of some 60,000 square miles off the New England coast, was nearing completion on June 30. The shoals and undersea valleys discovered during the course of this work are now shown on charts as further aids to the mar iner in fixing his position. Another important Atlantic coast survey was the wire-drag operations in Long Island Sound, wherby menaces to navigation were accurately located and promptly shown on revised edi- tions of nautical charts.
 Surveys of only about IS per cent of the waters of Alaska have been accomplished at the present time. Only g per cent of Alaska's water area was surveyed during the period 1867 to 1918.
 Aids to Human Safety
 Statistics given show a total of 767,322 soundings made during the fiscal year, distributed along lines totalling distance of 72,1S6 miles, and covering an area of 61.- 4S5 square miles-further indicative of the mammoth size of this impor- tant activity in the interests of hu- man safety.
 Twelve new nautical charts and s new airway maps were published during the year. There were also 149 revised editions of charts issued. Reprints and new prints totaled 547. Hand corrections prior to the sale of charts and maps, necessary to show latest changes, totaled nearly one and three-quarter millions A

CLUB TO IMPORT
 GAME BIRDS FROM NORWAY

Edvart Kjosen of Anchorage Is responsible for a movement launch ed by members of the Denai Rifle and Pistol Club of Anchorage to in- troduce in that section of Alaska two game birds of the grouse family in Norway, the Tiur and Orhane.
 The Tiur, similar to a turkey, at- tains a weight of ten to fifteen pounds or more, the females being slightly smaller. Fhe erhane, a smaller bird of four to six pounds in weight, resembles the Alaska grouse, but is more wary, which is a point in it's favor.
 The conditions under which these game birds live In the interior of Norway, are the same as in Anchor age district, In regards to foods, snow swamps. tundra and spruce trees, the latter being their natural pro- lection and source of food supply in winter.
 A letter has been mailed to a prominent rod and gun club in Trondheims, Norway, known as the Trondheims Jager and Fiskerforemig for further information.

Chas. Sheayett Dies
 After Long Illness

Funeral services were cond ted by the Rev. Russell F. Peder$c on Thusday afternoon at St. I&+G. n's Episcopal church for Charles She = yeti who died the previous day af- ter a long illness from pulmonary tuberculosis.
 The deceased was about 50 years old He was born in Wrangell and was the nephew of Chief Shustak. Had the old ways continued he would have been for many years past, the head of his tribe. He was member of the Episcopal church and the Alaska Native Brotherhood, and stood we'll in the community with both the native and white population.
 His wife preceded him in death four. years ago. He is survived by a nine-year-old daughter, by two nieces, Miss Irene Collins at Wran- gell Institute and Mrs. Lizzie Mar tin of Ketchikan and by two neph- ews, Jimmie Norwishkey and John- nie Jackson of Ketchikan,

COAST AND GEODETIC SURVEY CITES
 LABORS IN INTEREST HUMAN SAFETY

A record of achievements in the vigorous prosecution of its chart making activities, geodetic control surveys, tide and current work, and earthquake studies, is recorded in the annual report for the year end ed June 30 last, of Captain R. 5. Patton, Director of the Coast and Geodetic Survey, made public today. The need for these products is es- sential in the interests of human safety on sea and land and to reduce the cost of many engineering proj- ects in the development of local communities. Captain Patton ex- presses the hope that the benefits upon which the taxpayers have learned to depend will not be made unavailable or obsolete because of the long-continued decrease in funds.
 Reviews Large Area
 The report reviews accomplish ments over a tremendous area: Sur veying ships along the the coastal waters of the Atlantic, Gulf, and Pacific coasts, the Philippines, lIa- waii, Puerto Rico, and Alaska, field parties in over half the states in the union; permanent and tempo rary stations with which observa- tions are made with respect to earth quakes, terrestrial magnetism, gray ity, tides, and currents; scientists, mathematicians, and chart-makers, in the Washington official to- gether rendering practical services that are available to everyone.
 Captain Patton points out that 1t would have been impossible to accomplish the years work by meth ods in vogue prior to the World war. The coast and geodetic survey has been alert to apply to it's work, and improve on, all available scien- tific discoveries. In the obtaining of soundings alone, the use of the Fathometer, by which depth is de- termined by measuring the time re- quired for a sound to travel to the bottom and return, has increased tremendously the speed with which this work may be done.
 In spite of the inherent difficult ties encountered in charting water areas out of sight of land, remark able progress has been made pos sible by the successful use of radio acoustic ranging methods. Positions of the surveying vessel are deter mined at frequent intervals along a sounding line by exploding a bomb in the water and measuring the time taken for the sound to trav- el through the water to two station ships anchored at buoys the posi- tions of which have been previously determined.
