GARDEN HOSE FAILS TO MAKE
 SATISFAC0RY DRINKING CUP

SALIDA, Colo, June 23-Ray Switzer, aged , years, had seen other boys kink hose and take drink from the nozzle. He tried it at his home in Marble. After plac- ing the nozzle into his mouth he released the kink in the hose. The water tlooed his stomach and he was unable to get the hose out of his mouth. Finally the nozzle work ed itself out of the child's mouth, but not until he was filled with all the water he could hold.
 When the boy staggered into the kitchen of his home, his mother be- held a sight that amazed her. The boy was as big as a fat man in a circus and he was too full to talk. The mother did not know what had happened but since there was no doctor within many miles she tried home remedies. She gave the child an emetic and when he began to vomit the water spurted from him as if he were a fire hydrant. It came out as fast as 1t went in and the mother was frantic,
 The next day the boy ran high temperature for time which subsided and no ill effects from the mishap resulted.

Head Tourist Society
 On Tenth Alaska Trip

Arriving in Wrangell yesterday for week or ten days stay, John A. Hooper Sr., President and Di- rector-General of American and Canadian Tourists Societies, Inc. with Mrs. Hooper, are guests at the Wrangell Hotel, having wired for reservations from Juneau.
 In an interview with the Sen tinel Hooper stated, Both Mrs Hooper and myself are delighted to again visit Alaska. and to meet old friends. l have not visited Alaska since the slump in tourist travel. nor since we became an incorp- orated non-profit body, having dis posed of our tourist magazines and publications, and becoming retired people of leisure, not engaged in any propaganda or tour work what ever, except inside our own organi zation of which I have been the president for over twenty years.
 Tenth Alaska Trip
 'I have made ten trips to Alaska, and stopped over in Wrangell on three occasions, on behalf of the steamships and others catering to the tourist trade. Mrs. Hooper and myself are now on a world tour, and we are spending nearly two months in Alaska, preparatory to going to the Century of Progress Exposition in Chicago, where I will have charge of the great 23rd an- nual summer reunion and confer ence of tourists,
 'We had thirty-nine of our Cal ifornia members on the Alaska and forty-one on the Aleutian, all of whom are roundtrip eXcursionists, not stopover tourists like ourselves During my visit in Alaska I have spoken to several mems and wom- ems organizations on various sub jects, and have been interviewing many prominent Alaskans, to find out what will be best to have AL aska, particularly this southeastern section, again on the map as a prime tour.
 Alaska Not Tourist Minded
 There are very few places in Alaska that are tourist-minded I find. and many seem to ignore the possibilities of anything like a tour ist crop, such as they had in the good years not so long ago. We find that internal discord and local cliques at several places are hurt ing the advent of tourists. Only two southeastern points seem to want tourist trade, and those two are not equipped to cater to a stop over business, such as has made every great tour centre.
 ''I am making a special report on this to the steamship companies and the tourists assemblage, and l hope my report will be considered m unbiased one, as I am trying to make it so. I presented the five major points that tourists ask for, and if they are granted (and 1t will be gratis work on my part), believe we shall again have Alaska
