It's Time to Think
Of Moving Outdoors

When the flies start to
buzz and the warm breeZes
send the first sail billowing
ont over the blue water.
that's the time We begin to
think of moving outdoors.
And you don't have to be a
millionaire to set up a little
corner and SAVIOR the fun of
eating a hamburger while
you tan your legs.
A watermelon-pink UNI
brella poked through an in
expensive white round table
top. one long table and
benches. a few comfortable
canvas-seated chairs. a ha-
bachi tfor cooking the ham,
burgers and you're all set!
The secret is color! Take
any old chair and paint it
snowy-white. add an orange
sailcloth cushion. put orange
sailcloth tablematS on the
table. and toss some lemon
yellow and parrot-green pill
lows on a long wooden bench.
add Harlequin striped ham
mock and your summer is
made!
You can devise a simple
and colorful awning to cover
your own little eating spot,
and with a shiny black WIN
dow box brimming over with
red, white and purple petu-
Mas, who could ask for any
thing more?
Even if you live in an
apartment and have no gar
den, take down your heavy
draperies, get some ineXpen-
sive match stick shades and
put a couple of chairs and a
round table near the windows
and play" eating outdoors
for the summer. Go to the
dime store and invest in some
summery china and tall gayly
striped glasses. With table
cloth appliqued with bright
red apples the change will be
worth the effort.
Don't overlook the wonder
ful new rust-proof wrought
iron furniture for indoor
outdoor living. 1t comes in
fabulous colors and plastic
cushions that look like MORE

 Change Orders
 Three change orders for the new fire station were approved by the Council. One, for $1 ,20951 was need ad because 100 gallon gasoline ank had to be replaced by a 2.000 sallon tank. Another, for S5.989 93 was needed to change reinforcing 'teel in the floor, resulting from irafting omissions and the con- tractors wrong assumption on Sheet S-2 of the plans

Miller stated that City Ordinances call for steel enclosed packer-type truck to be used in garbage collec- tion. He stated that to his know ledge, L.C.&H had no such truck.
 When one of the Councilmen brought up the point that the appli- cant based his business outside the City, City Manager Nordby pointed out that it might be good to have a business based outside the City He stated the City had received com- plaints from Slaterville residents about the present company's base of operations, which is located in a residential area by grandfather rights.
 Miller took exception to Nordby's remarks.
 Lee Houston of L.C.&H. Service explained that he felt competition would provide better service for City residents and urged the City to pass the license as soon as pos sible, so he could participate in cleanup week in the City.

In a relatively short (two hour) meeting Monday night, the Fairbanks City Council au- thorized $5,899.44 in change or ders for the new fire station; ac- cepted report by the adminis- tration proposing that the City Engineers be moved to the Gil- lam St Fire Station, with the space they now occupy being re- modelled to provide additional room for the detention facilities of the Fairbanks Police Department; and considered bids for providing gaso- line fuel diesel oil, and towing services for the City.
 Shumeff Hearing
 High point of the meeting was .he. wrap-up of the public hearing on the condemnation of the Greg ory Shumeff (Pete Smith1 property m South Fairbanks.
 Shumeff's attorney, S m n Moves. pointed out that the con- demnation would deprive his client of his means of support. Moves stated that he did not feel the con- dition of the buildings in question merited condemnation, but that Shumeff should be allowed to fix them up.
 Moves also stated that he felt the condemnation actions could start a little closer to the heart of town, rather than on the outskirts. He said he knew of several buildings m town that were "old dumps 30 years ago.
 He said it appeared that con- demnation proceeded only if the City could win, and that as soon as strong opposition was met, the proceedings stopped.
 Don Rowley, a friend of Shum- eff's. anpeared in Shumeff's behalf and proposed rather unique solu-

To sell stock to a population
with a high rate of illiteracy,
not only in letters but in eco.
Monies, took some doing.
But Mr.. Tubman, who has
run Liberia since his first in
auguration in 1914, spelled it
out in simple terms at a meet
ing Of tribal chiefs in these
words:
You know how it is when
you trade. You buy some small
small things. Then you sell
those things one-one and you
make small profit on the things
you sell. Then you buy more
again and sell more and some
times you can make good
money by trading.
"Or you buy cup Of pea
nuts and plant them. And when
the peanuts are full you get
four cups of peanuts or maybe
more from that one cup of pea
nuts. And so you have made a
profit. The same is true of
rubber or cocoa or coffee. When
you plant rubber, however, you
do not see any money coming
in from the money you have
spent for maybe five years.
Then after FIVE years time, you
can see profit.
in this iron matter, it is like
this: 1t takes plenty money to
start this thing. They must buy
machines to build roads, to
make houses for the workers to
live in, to dig the iron itself.
All this takes money. Someone
must have faith to believe that
when all this is done and the
iron is dug out, the iron itself
will make money to pay for all
these machines. Those people
are called a company. No one.
person has enough money to
pay for all this. 1t must be
many people who pay for it.
And it is good that many peo-
pie can help because then the
profit comes to many people
and not just to one person.
