It was too small an op- eration for their taste, but just right for Rust who was manager of the Tacoma shelter at the time. About 1920 William Castelton and George T. Jackson former man. ager of the Alaska Gastineau Mine took over the Chichagof. The Rust family came into the picture again in 1882 when Arthur Rust and Stan Warburton were associated in it's operation. With the death of Arthur Rust. w. H.

RECOVERY OPERATION AT (HICHAG0F WILL
 START NEXT MONTH

Chichagof Mining Company, once one of Southeast Alaska's large gold mines, will be producing again as a result of a contract between Stan ton Warburton, Tacoma, President of the company, and Howard Hayes and Stanwood P Whiteley who will operate the mine on recovery basis.
 Hayes and Whiteley, who already made a success of recovery work on the Alaska-Juneau's tailings and are currently contractors for pav- ing the Douglas highway, will start operations in Chichagof soon after the first Of the year.
 Their new camp will not be on the scale of the Chichagof of the old days, but they will have sub stantial settlement of a dozen or so families. They plan to rehabilitate the houses and buildings at Chich- agof and build a mill sufficient to take care of their operation.
 Cleanup of the old rock pile and tailings will be first on their re- covery program, but they intend to prospect and do exploratory work also.
 In fact they will be looking for anything that might have been left behind on the once rich Chichagof property.
 Stan Warburton has been asso- ciated with the company since it was taken over in 1892 by Arthur Rust whose father w. R. Rust with Hugh Wallace, both of Tacoma, had

MRS. HERMANN HOME
 AFTER> INTERESTING
 NEW YORK TRIP

Home from a trip crowded with interest Mrs. Mildred Hermann, Juneau attorney and clubwoman, returned last week to Juneau and brought with her her friend Miss Orah Dee Clark who has been hos pitalized since an accident here last winter. Now able to walk with the aid of a cane, Miss Clark spent six months in the hospital in Ju- neau and three months at Mayos' in Rochester where she had physio- sherapy treatment.
 Mrs. Herman is national chairman of the consumer relations commit tee of the General Federation of Women's Clubs and it was to at tend a board meeting of the Gen. eral Federation in New York in October and a meeting of the Am erican Cancer Association that she went East.
 Her club meetings coincided with the New York Herald Tribune For um to which she had been invited. Here she heard some of the best political speakers of the day. Two evening meetings presented 8 Democratic group the first night and Republican speakers the second night, with Franklin D. Roosevelt, Jr., Governor Lehmann and Cover nor Stevenson of Illinois on the Democratic program. The following night Cabot Lodge, Phillip Willkie, wo Republican liberals and Guy jabrielson, Republican National Iommittman and one of the old uard, addressed the meeting.
 Most applauded speaker, accord ing to Mrs. Hermann was Phillip Willkie, the 27 year-old son of Wendell Willkie.
 Others she heard on the Forum programs included Senators Mar garet Chase, Maine, Wayne Morris, Oregon, and John Foster Dulles, New York.
 She spent several days taking a efresher course as lay delegate and the first Alaska delegate-to .he American Cancer Society, att ended a meeting Of the United Nations where Elinor Roosevelt was ! speaker.
 One of her most pleasant eXper- iences, Mrs. Hermann said, was to 3e one of a small group at tea at he home of Mrs. Kermit Roosevelt, whom she had met in Juneau last summer when Mrs. Roosevelt was on her way to Anchorage to visit the grave of her husband.
 Following her busy time in New York, Mrs. Hermann, former head of the OPA in Alaska, visited her son, Chee, in his first year of law 1t George Washington University, md saw former OPA associates now
 in other branches of the govern lielt III WdSliiiS eoll, n Nisi1 Co iiei in-law and daughter, MT. and Mrs. Thomas R. Marshall, took her to the University of Indiana, where she had attended college 35 years ago.
 At Rochester she met Miss Clark and accompanied her home.

BpW HEARS TB EXECUTIVES AT
 MONDAY MEET

Monday was Francis Paul day at the Business and Professional Wcmen's Club weekly luncheon at the Baranof.
 Mrs. Paul, executive secretary of the Alaska Tuberculosis Associa- ton. now in the midst of its Christi mas Seal Sale, was speaker on the program, furnished the Christ mas table decorations and had made the small hand-painted Thun- derbird Totems, emblazoned appro- priately with the double-barred cross of the Tuberculosis Associa- tion as place cards.
 Recently returned from five weeks course fer Tuberculosis As sociation secretaries at Kingston, New York, Mrs. Paul explained to the group the program that has been worked out by the National Tuberculosis Association, after it's 45 years of experience.
 There are five steps in tuber- cular care: First, health education; second, case finding; third, treat ment; fourth rehabilitation and fifth medical research.
 With all of these except treat ment, your national Tuberculosis Association is concerned and it is into these groups that your Christi mas Seal Sale money goes" Mrs. Paul explained. Treatment of TB as a contagious disease is consid- cred the care of the government.
 Of interest was the fact that the Alaska TB Association by arrange ment with State of Washington groups contributes $48 a year for each of the 32 Alaska patients in Laurel Beach and Riverton Sanit orias in Seattle. This is to provide the attention of medical social workers and occupational therapy for patients who would not re- ceive this care from the hospitals
 Before the Territorial Health De- partment had expanded to include tuberculosis program, the Alaska TB Association as it's part in the case finding program brought the first TB clinician to Alaska and made the first survey of TB incl dence in the Territory.
 christmas Seals had their big geet year in 1948 when our sales reached $28,OO0 and with Alaska's $500 cases what we can do with that money is not great, but it is thoughtfully spent and goes farth- CT than most people realize.
 Because of the need of better social service and rehabilitation needs within the hospital, the ATA is endeavoring to supply these ser vices that will help keep patients happy and satisfied with their sur roundings so that they will stay un- til their treatment is completed"
 Business of the day included the announcement by President Eliza beth Mosher of plans for Christ mas luncheon at the Baranof next Monday and a rummage sale super" rummage sale-in the base ment of the Methodist Church next Saturday.

No More Foo" for
 Siikans;; Fall Back On Looking ai Eash Other

sitka's private zoo" has been disbanded, and the residents have fallen back on looking at each ether now instead of the lone female monkey which for several months was denizen Of the old capital.
 It seems that "Suzie," a 15-incn- nigh unknown brand of monk, tore everything apart to fine degree. not particularly because Of a bad temper. but simply because she loved to see things fly around.
 When the Northwest Shows toured the Territory late this sum- mer and disbanded. Sitka residents got hold of two monkeys just for the fun of it, and because no mon- keys had ever shown up there pre- viously, that could be recalled.
 What happened to the first an- thrcpoid isn't clear, but Fred Gees lin, director of the Mt. Edgecum e School of the Alaska Native Serv- ice, took "Suzie" in and allowed all and sundry to view her. But she tore up the house so much that Geeslin, dispairing, disposed of her to man at the Japonski Is- and base of the Coast Guard there.
 He, too, had troubles and so yes terday she went-not exactly the way of all flesh, but near enough via Pan American World Airways enroute to Tacoma, Wash, where perhaps the warmer weather might put her in a less destructive mood.
