GROUND BREAKING CEREMONIES DRAW HUNDREDS TO SCENE

Hundreds of persons witnessed the ground breaking ceremonies of the Valley Presbyterian Hos pital held April g.
 George E. Smith, president of the Valley Hospital Association, Inc. presided over the ceremonies and introduced the many distin- guished civic and church lead CTS who were present.
 Following the invocation by Rev. Brian H. CleWorth, hospital chaplain, words of greeting were given by Smith who thanked all organizations represented at the ceremonies, without whose help he said, the hospital would have been impossible.
 In speaking to the gathering Richard Beauliou, president of C. R. Foss, Inc, contractors for the new hospital, said he and his partner C. R. FoSs, Go not feel the same about the construction of this hospital as they do about some buildings, and said that if the cooperation they have seen is an indication of what they may expect, that the hospital may be completed within 12 months, six months sooner than called for.
 Rev. Roland Armstrong, speak ing for the U. S. Public Health Service brought congratulations from Dr e Earl Albrecht to the community and church repreSen- tatives for bringing the hospital into being, and offered his own blessings to the people of the Valley.
 Dr. J. Earl Jackman, secretary, department of work in Alaska, Board of National Missions of the Presbyterian Church, U s. A. said he had watched developments for many months and offered con gratulations to the people of the Valley and the women of the churches who raised necessary funds for the hospital.

 Presenting the key to the City of Palmer to Dr. Hermann N. Morse, moderator of the Gen eral Assembly, of the Presbyterian Church, LISA. and general secre- tary of the Board of National Missions, was the honor of Mayor Alfred V. Hagen who prefaced the act with greetings to repre- SentatiVeS present from New York to San Francisco and offered thanks for the work done in col lecting $232,000 in the Pennies for Palmer" drive.
 Dr. Morse, in his response, gave credit for the work to the women. "The women do the work and the men get the key" he S i'd. T am happy to have had the opportunity uU nave a part in this hospital. It is an oppor- tunity for richer life for all" he said. T am looking forward to the day when I will see the building itself"
 Climaxing the ceremonies was the actual ground breaking, done by Mrs. Bert J .Bingle who repre- sented the women's organizations throughout the Presbyterian Church. Seated on the dozer with Leo Lucas, Mrs. Bingle broke ground" for the new hospital.
 The school band closed cere- monies with God Bless Ameri- ca."

Russia to Prove it.
If She is Sincere

President Eisenhower told
the Russians that if they are

1926 Miles In
8 Days. That's
Going Some

They left London, Friday
evening, August q, and arrived
back home on Saturday, Aug
ust %. They travelled 1896
miles through the wide open
spaces of the Golden West"
in that short time. I'VE call
that going some"
Leaving London, Mr.. and
Mrs. Robert Eckstein and fam
lily travelled through the states
of Indiana, Illinois, Missouri
and on to Horton, Kansas,
where they stayed over night.
Then from there they crossed
over the Panhandle" route
through Oklahoma and Texas
north to Denver and the city of
Golden, Colorado. In Denver
they visited with Oday Geer,
the city Safety Manager and
with the Robert Conway fam
lily. All of whom are former
residents of London. The Eek
stems headed East from this
point and the report given af-
ter their arrival back home we
feel you will find very interest
ing. Here tis":
Cattle were selling at the
ranches on foot at 8 and &c per
pound. Big tender juicy T-bone
steaks at the stores were SELL
ing at Acc per pound. The
weather, it was hot and dry out
there too. los in the shade and
shade was as scarce as hens
teeth in a china egg factory. In
one community it had not rain
ed for seven weeks. All crops
were burning up, much worse
than they are here.
Mr.. Eckstein is the advertis-
ing manager for the Madison
Press Co. He like all other em-
ployes of the local newspaper
firm enjoyed a vacation during
the past week. Mr.. Conway,
owner and publisher of the
local papers and his two sons,
Peter and Jimmy, accompanied
by Sam Robson, local attor-
ney, are now en- route home
from a trip through the deep
west and perhaps Mr.. Conway
will have a complete record
about everything in general
throughout the west when they
arrive home this weekend.
