Clear Scuppers

Scuppers, or openings used as
drainage outlets on porches, should
be kept free of all leaves, dirt, and
other litter. Otherwise, some of the
moisture they hold is absorbed by
the porch flooring and surrounding
materials, thereby starting deteriora-
ton. They should be cleaned, dried
and well painted with durable, water
resistant paint.

Protect Joints

1t is considered good practice when
installing porch rail and trim or
other exterior portions of the house
which are exposed to the weather to
fit all of the pieces together so that
water does not drain into the joints.

ing deterioration of the material and
result in a lower maintenance cost.

With Hydrants
 It's Not Cost it Is the Upkeep

With fire hydrants it isn't the original cost-it's the upkeep. At least that is what Mayor
 Isadore Goldstein would have the
 city believe. The Mayor was de- spondent today.
 For the third time in two
 months. some careless motorist has
 backed an automobile. into that |red hydrant at the top of Gold
 Belt Avenue" he reported mourn
 fully. The hydrant is loose again today. That means another s20 ir repairs.
 You know, the city doesn't want to seem unreasonable about this thing, but it would be nice if the ,person who jars our hydrant would call us up and report the acci-
 dent. Even that would be appre. Iciated."

BROKEN PIPE DELAYS
 CREEK CHANNEL WORK

A broken water pipe at the Alaska Electric Light and Power Company power house not only caused that firm some temporary concern today, but hampered a crew of city employees who are repairing the rock-embanked Gold Creek channel, damaged by recent flood waters.
 Yesterday. a deep rock and con- crete footing was lodged in the north embankment of the channel near the Gold Creek Bridge. To day, workmen were prepared to make a similar improvement in the south bank when 1t became necessary for the power company to turn a stream of water into the creek.
 A broken pipe, which was ex- pected to be repaired by late this afternoon, would have caused dam age at the power house, had the water not been turned into tht creek channel. Meanwhile, the city crew is hoping that threatening rain will hold off long enough sC that permanent repairs may b, made before another siege of higi water is experienced.

 The silence which accompanied the arrival of the plane was sud- denly broken by the discovery of a photographer concealed in the rafters of the hangar. Several mo- ments of confusion followed, until police caught him and smashed his camera. Meanwhile other photog- raphers, shooting through glass win dows outside the building. clashed with police. Spectators jumped over the fence and joined the melee.
 The rumpuS caused delay or half an hour in transferring the bodies to two hearses, which were escorted by twenty motorcycle po- lice to the Forest Lawn Mortuary in Glendale.
 Later, the body of Post is to be taken to Oklahoma for burial.
 Joe Crosson, famed Alaska pilot who brought the bodies from Point Barrow to Seattle, accompanied the bodies south as passenger. Also in the California plane were Col Clarence Young, an-American Air ways Director, and Amos Carter, of Fort Worth, Texas.

 Continuing his remarks, Delegate Dimond said: My remarks refer to Joe Crosson who advised Post and Rogers not to make the trip to Point Barrow at this time of the year because of the danger in- volved but who nevertheless and unhesitantingly took to the air him self and flew there in order to bring back the bodies of those who so died.
 We know what struggle Cros- son had particularly from Point Barrow to Fairbanks. In places he was half blinded by fog and with the hazard of the Endicott Range to cross where snow was in passes this season, it is with feeling of relief that many of us, who under stand the conditions, learned that Crosson had arrived safely at Fair banks with the bodies of his friends"

REV. HUBBARD
 WILL EXPLORE
 TWO GLACIERS
Arrives Here for Work Absolute Praise for
 Matanuska

Tt is our intent to solve once and for all the mystery of the Menden- hall and Taku glaciers. We shall ikeepat 1t until 1t is done" k In these words, Father Bernard R. Hubbard, famous geologist of Santa Clara University, whose ex- ploits in Alaskan ice-fields have won him the title of Glacier Priest" reiterated his intention to disprove, by actual measurements of temperature at different levels, the present scientific theories con- corning depths of glacial deposits.
 Father Hubbard, accompanied by his aides, Ken Chisholm, Ed Levin, and George Getty, arrived on the Yukon from a short tour of the Matanuska country A Father Hub bard Tour, comprising 86 persons representing every state in the Union. were round on the Yukon which sailed for the south.
 It is Father Hubbard's intention to remain for week in Juneau, and then to strike out for the ice-cap of Taku, where he will camp for six weeks.
 Matanuska A Delight
 Father Hubbard discussed at length his reactions to the Mata- nuska colonization project.
 You can headline this Enthusi- astic Over Matanuska'l" he said. Everything was a delight to me I was astounded at the magnitude of the thing My whole party was com- pletely sold on the colony"
 He drew a graphic comparison between what he felt to be prevail ent view of the colony, as place where malcontents were getting re- lief from the government and the colony as he actually saw it: "a fine group of people, trying hard to get along and with marvellous pioneer spirit"
 T am in position to speak with authority on the subject now" he said. T was there a whole day. I was so excited about it that I sent out an AP dispatch expressing my delight and my appreciation of the men who had brought the colony about"
 The Hubbard party disembarked at Seward and took the railroad to Matanuska, where the party enjoyed a bus ride through the colony and into Palmer. Father Hubbard, how ever, went directly to Palmer where he interviewed Eugene Carr, Roy Hunt and other officials of the pro- ject
 Carr Good Official
 Eugene Carr was i'll at the time" he said T saw him in his bed. When one talks of Eugene Carr, superlatives are in order. He is one of the few men who can be in poli- tics without being politician"
 Father Hubbard reiterated his Associated Press statement, which appeared in yesterdays Empire con- cerning the high qualifications of Roy Hunt. ''He is human dyna- mo-" he said. Any project will be successful in his hands"
 He also described Father Sulz- man, former pastor at Seward and now in residence at the colony. as more representative of the pioneer spirit of Alaska than anyone I have

TREADWELL PROPERTY
 AGAIN IN LIMELIGHT
Famous Mine on Douglas Island May Again Come
 Out as Producer

P. R. Bradley, President of the Alaska Juneau Gold Mining Con- pany, arrived in Juneau this after noon on the Alaska and plans to remain here until the latter part of September.
 While here, MT. Bradley said today, he will study over the sur veys and development work already made by the Alaska Juneau com- pany on the Alaska Gastineau prop critics which company his company purchased last year, and during his stay, in collaboration with the local management, will decide upon lasting program as to the best method of attack in linking the two properties into permanent combined operation.
 A. c. Work
 At the present time. MT. Brad ley said, that in addition to other development work the Alaska Ju- neau is continuing to tunnel into the Alaska Gastineau property on it's own level.
 At present we anticipate that the tonnage mined and milled will continue at the average gait we have been maintaining. Any in- crease is contingent upon the re- suit of a thorough investigation and development of the flask a Gastineau properties over period of years"
 Treadwell Program
 MT. Bradley made further an- nouncement that is fraught with great potentiality for this area when he said that the Alaska Ju- neau had made an agree m n t wherein Mark Reuua, noted min ing engineer, now heads 8 group that will endeavor to bring the fa- nous Treadwell mine on Douglas Island into production.
 The program calls for much in vestigation and development work on the old Treadwell properties, and if these surveys prove suf- ficient ore, milling arrangements and operations will result, under the direction of MT. Requa
 Plans Outlined
 While definite plans have not been made, the new group intends to drill through and considerably beneath the flooded portion of the Treadwell, and if sufficient ore bodies are found after exhaustive investigation ia is assumed that they will go ahead and develop 8 new mine well beneath the levels worked before the famous Cas- tineau Channel property was flooded in April, 1917.
 For many years both as a resi- dent and frequent visitor in and to Juneau and Douglas, MT. Brad ley today expressed eagerness and enthusiasm for the opportunity his prolonged stay here will afford to renew old friendships and contacts.
