LAD DOES HIS BIT TO
HELP FLOOD VICTIMS
10 Year-Old Son of Relief
Worker Comes to Red
Cross With a Nickle
By I'm

He was not over ten years old His
face was dirty, his clothes ragged, one
stocking ripped along the side. He wore
no hat and his shoes had seen better
days. The sweater he wore was much
too large for him.
No one noticed him as he walked into
Red Cross Headquarters. And when
they did glance his way, they probably
thought he was just curious little ur-
chin trying to find out what all the ex-
element was about. But this little kids
heart was clean, and it was clothed with
charity. Judging from his appearance
he was old enough to know what it
was to be hungry. And, perhaps, he.
too, had, at some time, been the recipi-
ent OF clothing in order to keep him
warm.
He stood back, and waited until Others
gave donations to the lady in charge.
These people We're well dressed. And
they looked like they had never known
was 1t was to go to bed hungry. Many
OF the good folk expressed their sincere
sorrow for the unfortunate flood victims.
They gave literally. And the Red Cross
worked thanked all for their generous
support to such worthy cause.
FINALLY he walked up to the lady and
brushing his trousled hair from his eyes
inquired: rs this the place where tbev
help the Williamsport flood people?"
Yes replied the lady.
Wen, l wanna help, too" he said.
And he opened his dirty little hand,
and offered her bright, shiny nickle.

SUCCESS is YOUTHS
HOPE OF THE FUTURE
Local School Head Talks to
Students on Important
Subject

s. M. Funk, president of Columbia
College, in an address to his students,
admonished them that before obtaining
success in this world they must first
build a shcress structure and be ready
to meet disappointment along hfe's high
way. Mr.. Funk's address, in part, fol-
lows:
Success building is first mental pic
ture: then a reality or dlsappolnt-
ment. Perhaps there is nothing in life
more disappointing to young people than
the efailure to achieve the success that
they hope for Being a success is the
hope for future achievements. This
hope lies in the future: it can never
be found in the past. Your success is
ahead of you, not back of you. You
must travel in the future If you would
achieve success. 1t is the fulfillment OF
mental pictures which register dreams
of future achievements. If you fancy
achieving success without first building
success structure. you must meet disap-
pointment as many thousands of people
have done. Success is the consumma-
ton, the realization of intentions, hopes,
purposes. and persisting faith, which is
set in action and is kept in action at
heavy cost, sacrifice. and determination
to achieve and to reach the coveted goal.
DO you have goal? What is your
goal? Many people want to be success
full. but few people are determined TO
be successful; many people fancy how
desirable it would be to achieve success.
but few people resolve and demand OF

maps out definite plan OF procedure,
when one makes blue print in his bind
of the life he would live, of the things
he would like to do, and of the expert
enees he would ike to have, sets the
price on them that he is willing TO pay,
then studies his blue print and checks
the cost of similar successes. then and
not until then is he on the way TO sue
ceSSful life. Price is one of the requisites
for building a successful life. You

HEAVY VOTE
IS EXPECTED
ON TUESDAY
Capt. James V. Davis Gives
His Impressions of
Primaries

Capt, James v. Davis, owner of
the Davis Transportation Co., who
returned to Juneau last night on his
motorship Roedda, which has been
undergoing an overhaul in Ketchi-
kan for the past three weeks, said
today that he believes that an I'M
usually heavy vote will be recorded
in the Democratic primaries in Ket-
chikan, and the southern part of
the First Division. Capt. Davis bases
his prediction on the conversations
held with Ketchikan residents and
with the seemingly generally active
interest in the coming contest for
nominations.
When asked about the progress
of his own campaign for nomina-
ton to the House of Representa-
tiveS in the Territorial Legislature,
Capt. Davis, explained that getting
his boat in shape hadn't left much
time for campaigning, and further

OF political campaigner, anyhow,
but that good many people had
volunteered the information that
they were going TO vote for him.
Capt. Davis has been a resident
of the Territory for thirty years and
during practically all of that time
has been engaged in fishing and
allied industries, including the wat
er transportation business, and the
water mail contract routes. These
occupations have taken him to all
parts of the Territory and given
him particularly intimate informa-
ton about Southeast Alaska, and
its residents.
Il have always believed that the
Territory's welfare is in turn, my
own welfare Capt. Davis said. IF
nominated and eventually elected to
the Legislature my best efforts will
be directed towards legislation that
will result in the general welfare of
the Territory"

dollar a day, to assure him pas
sage to the Westward where
he has a. good job waiting,

advantage, gladly turned over

ROSIE MAIER IS
BADLY INJURED,
AUTO ACCIDENT
School Girl Steps in Front
of Car on Highway
Is in Hospital

Rosie Maier, 8-year- odd daughter
of Mr.. and Mrs. Frank Maier, wal
very seriously, possibly fatally, in.
jured yesterday afternoon when sht
was struck by an automobile driver
by Joe Hill on the Glacier Highway
The little Maier girl, who was tax
en- to the hospital Immediately after
the accident, was still unconscious
at presStime TO-DAY, and was report
ed by DR.. l.. P. Dawes to be suffer-
ing from very severe conclusion OF
the brain and several cuts in her
scalp. There is apparently no frac-
ture of the childs skull, DR.. Dawes
said, and apparently no broken
bones Thorough X-ray examination
has been prevented by the child's
condition.
Steps In Front OF Car
The little Maier girl alighted from
the school bus in front of the Gla-
cier Dairy operated by her father,
on Glacier Highway yesterday aft
ernoon, and is said to have stepped
into the path of the car driven by
Joe Hill approaching from the OPP
posite direction. The school bus was
followed by BPR truck driven by
Alvin Torgeson, and it is thought
that she was watching the ap-
preaching truck and failed to see
HIS car. Hill reported that the
school bus was in motion at the
time he first saw it, and that his
vision was obscured by the bus and
the fact that the road curves at that
point. He did not see the little girl,
Hill said, until he struck her.
Speeds To Hospital
Hill stopped his car so suddenly
that the rear wheels skidded from
the road and the car could not at
once be driven from the scene. Tor
geson stopped his truck, dumped
the load of gravel it contained on
the highway, turned his truck
around and started at once for the
hospital with the injured child. Ed
Christianson, driver of the school
bus, stopped his vehicle and re-
turned on foot to learn what had
happened.
Shortly after Torgeson left with
the Maier girl for Juneau, Hill was
brought to town in a car driven by
Edith Bavard, and went at once to
the hospital to learn the extent of
the girls injuries.
The parents of the little girl were
not notified of the accident, due to
the confusion, and learned of her
injury when dairy employee in
vestigated the load of gravel in the
highway and discovered shoe be-
longing to Rosie which had been
lost from her foot. Mrs. Maier i'm
identified the shoe and
rushed to the hospital in Juneau.
Hill is one of Juneau's Fire De-
partment truck drivers.

MEN PRISONED
Ten DAYS IN
TUNNEL SAVED
Valient Work of Min RI
Brings Two to Surface
UnharmedEEat

MOOSE RIVER, N. s., April %.
Rescued from the mine tunnel
where they had been entombed
since Easter Sunday, DR.. D. E.
Robertson, mine-owner, and Charles
Alfred Scadding, timekeeper, were
today we'll on the road to recovery
in the improvised mine hospital.
DR.. Robertson was brought to
the surface at 1870 pm, Eastern
Standard Time, last night. Scad-
ding was brought up a few minutes
later. Diggers had reached the en-
tombed pair at Ills o'clock.
AS DR.. Robertson was carried out
of the mine shaft on stretcher,
he waved to the weary miners who
had worked day and night since
the disaster to save him.
Thank you, boys" he is report
ed as saying.
Brought into the improvised hos
pital, the 62-year-old mine-owner
surprised his rescuers by asking for
beefsteak.
In Good Condition
Physicians examining both men
said they anticipated no further
trouble. Robertson's mental and
physical condition is said to be ex-
cellent and it is anticipated he will
have rapid recovery. Seedlings
condition is surprisingly good al
though his feet are swollen and
somewhat blistered.
Both men were bright and cheer
full when three draegermen, ex-
perienced in mine rescues and emA
Urgency work, succeeded in break
ing from the main operating shaft
into the 14l-foot level The rescuers
did not wait to explore the mems
pri S on after they
broke through, but went directly
to the pair, lying PROSTATE beside
the skip or trolley which operated
from the depths to the surface.
The body of Hermann Magill,
part owner = of the Moose River
Mines, was brought up last. Magill
died of exposure Sunday night. An
inquest is scheduled in the near
future.
Valiant Rescue
Rescue of the two men was a
story of valiant effort and gallant
endeavor. Hard rock miners, in
formed of the catastrophe late
Easter Sunday night, assembled
hastily to begin digging way
through a disused tunnel to the
141-foo level where the men had
been trapped by slide. Almost a
week passed without word of the
entombed men, until, late Friday
of last week, miners succeeded in
drilling five-inch passage to the
tunnel, down which a telephone
and food supplies were lowered. 1t
was by this means that miners
were informed Sunday of the death
of Magill and the imprisoned men
were enabled to check on progress
of operations.
The final rescue was accomplish
ed when group of three veteran
coal miners, m m b ers of Nova
Scotia's famous mine rescue Or
ganization, Draegermen, formed a
spearhead underground attack
which reached the two living men
by breaking through a final wall
of stone and dirt. late yesterday
afternoon.
