Asked
What makes the houses built 20 and 30 years ago so
durable.”
The answe? is ."dependable materials and dependable‘
- construction.”
It is easy to waste or to save material at the expense
of comfort and permanence. When depreciation is taken
into consideration, the cost of material for poor construc-
tion is often higher in the end than that for a_ well-built
house. We buy and sell the best lumber obtainable.

to Vice—Consul T. M. Fisher in

The sharp decrease in quotas from

She was terribly afraid of goats,
and had stopped playing when Bil-

down on the school steps to watch
them. so now she screamed as it
she was being killed. This brought
a teacher and some the big boys
to the rescue. By this time Billy

frantic efforts to get loose. btlt he
was unconscious that ho was doing
so. The little girl stood facing him.

Algonquin today was enroule to Kis-
ka Island of the Rat Island group“;
between Atka. and A1111 Islands,
where aid will be given to any per-

The present schedule calls for the
arrival Saturday of the Algonquin at
At'tu Island, the farthest westerly
point of the Aleutian‘s where a stop
of two or three days will be made.
ASsistance will be given to A. Stuart
Manhattan, British globe flier, and
his companions, it they arrive dur-
ing that period. -
Although no word has been re-
ceived‘ from Petropailoxsk, where
the English ' aviator «van reported
last, otllccrs of the Algonquin believe
that MacL‘aren'has been delayed by
high‘ winds. ,heavy fogs and rough
seas. prevalent at this time of the
year.
The Canadian trawler, Thiepxal,
which established supply bases for
the aviator, left a. small supply of
gasoline at Nazan harbor for Mac-
Laren. Splendid landing facilities
have been provide -at the harbor.
Th? willage of Nazan on the harbor
is the only human habitation for
hundreds of miles. It contains about
25111115. Flying conditions to the
Aleutian: are considered dangerous
duringAugust due to fogs, wind and
rough seas.
It the weather is foggy by the
time MacLaren reaches the vicinity
of Nana, he may be unable to find
the harbor and be forced to Continue
to Atka Island. ‘
