question in a paragraph reading
Though l9 copies of the 24-cent
airmail 1918 with inverted center
had straight edges. we never have
noted straight-edge copy offered
in the numerous sales of these rari-
ties. Since none of the copies in
the Col. Green estate has a straight
edge, the inference is that some of
the copies now perforated must
have had straight edges at one time. "

it was learned today when work on temporary tent platforms and frames to house approximately 900 soldiers will get underway.
 At the same time work on a pipe line to supply water to the camp site will be started. The wa ter will be taken from Ship Creek five miles away and distributed through the camp. A four-inch main will be laid to furnish suf- ficient water.
 Local lumber firms were being pressed for shiplap, two-by -fours and other material necessary to build the frames. More than 15,000 feet of lumber was sent out yes- terday and today from local yards.
 When regular U. s. Army lum- Der supplies arrive from Puget Sound the cantonments will be built. They will also be of a tem- porary nature for use until per- manent barracks can be built. Meanwhile, it is necessary to in- stall sanitary facilities, shower baths, and other apparatus neces- sary for the tent city which will be nearly as large at the Mata- nuska colony when it was first es- tablished near Palmer.
 The tents will be laid out along streets" and will be uniform ,n size.
