up. At every stage they need
things for comfort, health and ed

of little and big businesses have
sprung up to fill their need. Take
just baby oils and powders. In one
year $7,800,0O0 came out of fam

NEW CASTLE NEWS
By Henry Bender

New Castle. Pa, Aug. 25-lt
has been some time since New
Castle articles appeared in this
paper, so | imagine everyone
thinks we no longer exist. But
you are alt wrong, we are still
alive and active.
Our president, who is also our
reporter, has been quite busy
gathering new membes and try
ing to satisfy the ones we have.
SO, If you don't mind, I'll write a
few words tor this week.
A week ago. Saturday, we had
"a meeting and a corn roast out at
the picnic grounds. Nine whole
members were there and they
had a swell time. Jackie Eve,
Our vice president, is learning
how to dance and is doing a
swell job of it. He is just gett-
ing ready for the winter months.
The corn was donated by our
president Mike Linz. who clainms
he grew 10 himself. Ann Tekeser,
our secretary, and Dolores Helm
rich thought they could beat me
but they know better. We all had
a grand time and are looking for
ward to August 10Th, our next
meeting, that is this Friday night
Last meeting we took in John
Sallmen as a new member. John
did not stay for the corn roast as
he had a date, the lucky fellow.
This next Sunday we are hav.
ing our annual picnic and we are
extending cordial invitation tc
all of our friends, far and near

their club at all. They are eithe'
| dropping out or just being too
busy to come around. They for
get that when they were young
their brothers didn't just quit
they stuck by until they were
sure you could handle things b,
yourself. Now the least you coulo
do is help these kids who areatry
ing SO hard to keep this thing go

 FROM SITkA

SITKA, Alaska, July 23-tR-The plan to use the Sheldon Jackson Hospital as a temporary emergency community hospital was approved by the City Council at it's regular meeting. Appearing to present the plan was Howard Bradshaw, Presi- dent of the Hospital Committee. A minimum amount of alterations and equipment was recommended most of which has already been pledged by donation, both materials and labor. Only large equipment still needed is a large refrigerator and a new water heating unit.
 The council voted an appropria- ton of $5,00O to cover a possible deficit in the first years opera ton. Appointed to the hospital ad- ministration board were the Rev. Ernst Nygaard, Leslie Yaw and the Rev. Lawrence Nevue who had drawn up the recommendations, plus Howard BraQSnaW.
 Other business acted upon by the Council included: reading of a let ter from Delegate Bartlett an- ncuncing early resumption of mali boat service between Sitka and Juneau through subletting of the Estebeth contract. Letters from the Navy Department announcing the arrival of more Navy boats early in September.
 c. J. Ehrendreich, CPA from Ju neau, present for questioning on the tentative budget drawn up for the coming year, stated that the city's present excellent financial condition was due entirely to the existence of the sales tax and warned that should the tax ordin- ance fail to be ratified in the fall election the city would again be in a financial mess.
 Ordinances 128 and 129 were given their two final readings and passed unanimously. The first sets new periods for public office: two years for mayor and three for councilmen. The second creates and defines the duties of the Hospital Committee.
 The Territorial law covering the collection of boat taxes was thor oughly discussed but tabled because the time limit set for making col lections is too short for solution of the tangle. However, it was agreed that every effort should be made toward a uniform program for all of Southeast Alaskan.
 Bills totaling S1,345.72 were ap- proved.

 The Hospital Committee has done considerable work on survey which seemed to indicate that the obvious solution to Sitka's need for hospital in the immediate future is such a conversion. But no fur ther steps could be taken until it was known whether or not the building would be made available
