She asked me if I would like to try and paint something. The colors fas- cinated me and from then on have always wanted to learn more about art.''

COUNCIL VOTES FULL AUTHORITY
 TO CONN MITTEE
ErnergencyFunds to Be Dis bursed by Group Ap-
 pointed by Mayor


 By unanimous vote, the City Council at it's regular meeting last night voted to leave disbursement of emergency funds raised in the recent disaster up to the Emergency Committee and Mayor T. Goldstein and endorsed all the actions that had been taken by the committee and the. Mayor thus far. It was voted that the committee, conver- sant with the entire enterprise, was in the best position to continue with the work until completed.
 The Mayor pointed out that it may be even spring before the work is entirely cleaned up and as yet a complete check of all expenses has not been made. The to- tai subscriptions so far amount to $l4,652 of which more than $l3,00O has been paid in and turned over to the city in special fund. City Attorney H. L, Faulkner, member of the emergency committee, said there was still some money coming from the Outside which had been subscribed before the campaign closed and estimated that the total would run well over $l4,000 which is believed by officials ample to take care of the needs in the emer- gency.
 In addition to the $l4,652 subscribed to the slide fund q 900 was set aside by the Territorial Highway Com mission, made up of Gov. John w. Troy, Highway Engineer William 4. Hesse and Territorial Treasurer Oscar Olson. This money was used in paying wages of workmen from the first night of the avalanche and would bring the total cash do- nations to well over $15000 when all subscriptions are received.
 Fire Chief V. w. Mulvihill re- ported that l.500 feet of fire hose was damaged during the work on the slide on Lower Franklin Street and the Council voted to place an order immediately for replacement, cost of which will be charged up against the emergency fund
