HEAVY RAINS CAUSE
FLOOD WATERS

The heavy down-pour of rain on
Thursday and Friday last swelled
all streams throughout this section
into raging torrents and much dam
age was done by the high water.
Numerous recently planted corn
fields were badly washed.
Road Supervisor Jos. T. Richards
had his troubles with several bad
washouts. The worst was ON the
road leading into the Horseshoe
Boy Scout Camp, which was under
several feet of water In different
places, when the Octoraro creek
went on a rampage and overlooked
its banks. Scouts at the Camp were
marooned there for several hours
and could not get out, while others
who had come for the weekend
could not get into the camp.
Supervisor Richards had seven
gravel trucks running on Sunday
and made the necessary repairs az
ter several hours of hard work.
At Porters Bridge, the small
bridge on the old roadway was
completely submerged for hours,
as was the bridge on the lakewood
Pilot road. The bridges withstood
the food and were in first class
condition when the waters receded.
Several small culverts in other
sections Of upper Cecil county were
damaged by the high water, but
were speedily repaired by Supervisor
Richards force of men.

CONVENTION CHATTER

September 5, 6 and 2 are the real red letter days of the year 1942 as far as Sitkans are concerned, for on those days there will be as sembled in Sitka the delegates and visitors to the Department of AL aska American Legion Convention. Most of the Legionnaires and Aux Hilary members hereaboutS are all agog and expectant. The housing problem is under control, thanks to the chairman of that commit ee Russ Clithero. Russ says that we are equipped to take care of all the visitors-and don't ask how. The Auxiliary Unit under the very able leadership of Hattie Peterman, President and Missy Clithero, Presi- dent-elect are working like beavers to help make this one occasion that will long be remembered. These ladies have some very competent assistants in the persons of Ted Johnstone, Jan Wallis, Lulu Wort man, Tex Goddard and others. Delegates have been named and an election of officers of the post for the coming year will be held at the Castle next Monday evening. At a special meeting the following Legion delegates were named: Win Goddard, Allan Johnstone, Eugene Wallis, Walter Shoaff and T. Van Horn. The alternates are Ben Miller, Clyde Hager, Nate Doo- little, Dr. H. L. Loy and Major Pomeroy.
 The delegates named by the Aux Hilary are as follows: Hattie Peter man, Missy Clithero, Ted John stone, Kay Miller and Vi Sulser. The alternates are Lulu Wortman, Jan Wallis, lone Cook, Martha Ko- strometinoff and Kate Banvard.
 Sitkans should be proud to en- certain this distinguished gather ing this year and we should take particular pains to put our best foot forward. We would like to make this the best convention ever hld in Alaska. We feel sure that all Sitkans feel the same way and will cooperate to the best of their ability. We will not bore you with a complete history of the Legion, the post here or the Auxiliary as most of you are entirely familiar with the records of these organiza- tions. We will sa, however, that tions. We will say, however, that setup. So let us remember that on September the Legion will con- duct a parade here and that those men who wear the blue caps with the golden B emblazoned thereon

Anyway let's give them the benefit of the doubt Sitka is known all throughout the Territory and widely known known in the States as the City of hospitality. Let's live up to that slogan.

 The Ladies Auxiliary of the Am erican Legion will hold special meeting next Monday evening, Aug. 31 at the Castle This is the last meeting until after the convention. All members are strongly urged to be there.
 That intricate Tango step done by Al and Ted Johnstone always gets me in a dither. Afraid Al will forget what to do next and that would be rather embarrassing for Ted.
 In spite of all the confidence in Russ Clithero we are worried about sleeping accommodations for a hundred visitors to Sitka. That's Russ problem and he is smiling, so why worry.
