Curtis at the age of 10 was a slight, bronzed lad, playing about | the Kaw reservation, west of To-| peka, Kansas. ! There followed a dangerous jour-| ney, undertaken fear] y, acros: the sun-swept plains to the fron- tier eity of Topeka. A hard-riding carcer as a jockey on western race | tracks, a return to the blanketed Indians whom he regarded as his| people and Curtis, the law student, whe drove a hack for a living. | Lurtis, the public off 1, madej his, appearanct in 1884, He was| elected County Attorney of Shaw-| nee county. He followed that by| election to the House of Represent-) atives, then to the Senate, and he| ended that service to become Vice-| President after years of party lead- | Curtis: brings peculiar fitness to| /the. semi-administrative position of | | -Pregident, - Eight terms in the Hot$e and four in the Senate | gve given him an expert knowl- :ge of ‘parliamentary law, and the| gg‘vel in his hand as presiding of- figer of the Senate will come down with the emphasis of conviction. “The stocky figure of the former jockey moves easily through crisis. His methods of controlling the ma- ¢ jority forces in the Senate are es- sentially his own. Quiet confer- enees in the back of the chamber with men whose aid was necessary and a striking efficiency in keeping important things moving are nota- points of his methods. \Gurtis' wife died in 1924, and his home here is with his sister and BFother-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. Ed- ward Everett Gann. He has three children—Mrs. Par- meélia George, Harry K. @urtis and Mis. Leona Knight. § e e AT THE HOTELS Gastineau Mrs. D. H. McDonald, Poriland Island; M. Kiloh, J.

CURTIS CHRONOLOGY | Charles Curtis was born Jan- | uary 25, 1860 at North Topeka, | Kas. 11 | | Admitted to the bar and started the practice of law in Topeka in 1881. | In 1884 married A.i.e E. Baird of Topeka. Public service began in 1884 when he became county attor- ney of Shawnee County, Kan- | sas, and he served for four | years. The new vice president came to Washingfon in 1893 as a member of the fifty-third con- gress and served in the house until 1909. Twenty-two years ago was clected to the United States Senate ,and served there since with the exception of a two- | year break. 1 At the Kansas City conven- | tion in June, 1928, received 6% votes for the Republican nomi- | nation for president on the first bellot on which Herberl | Hoover was nominated. ‘Was nominated for Vice Pres- ident by 1,052 ballots. | 53 — e VIOLATES DRY LAWS Charged with alleged violation of the dry laws, Charles Hammond was arrested Saturdey night by Deputy U. S. Marshals Garster and Sibley. - ees Have you bought your log yet? MORE TIMBER REQUIRED FOR S00UT CABIN sues Appeal—Reasons for General Hurry | | Two hundred dollars is still need- | 'ed by the Boy Scouts’ fund for the erection of a in at Eagle River, and all of those who have been pui-| ting off comfributing to the fund, are urged to get busy and make out a check to the Secretary of the | Boy Scout Committee. The: Scouts . ray if “you don’t want to buy a 4 .wholc log for the cabin, half a log : 'or a few shingles will be appre- ciated.™ Several “logs” have been given to the organization since the last publication of log buyers, but about [ $200 is still necessary if the cabin is to be of a reasonable size. Because of the fortunate fact that the ground at the cabin site is fine white clean porus sand, it has been suggested that the lower floor be omitted until a later date and the limited funds be used to make as large a cabin as possible. By good ditching, it is said, that the ml‘ flcor could be made as dry as one of boards, and the floor could be| added later much easier than the| cabin could be enlarged. High Pitched Roof To avoid danger from heavy snow fall, a high pitched roof is neces- cary and this will permit a large, roomy garret providing comfortable | bunk room for either or both troops, | or for other parties if the regula- tions will permit renting to respon- sible people. Jake Cropley, who is fond of the Scouts, has offered to put a raft of 2000 lineal feet of suitable logs on the beach at the site for $200 if he is given the order before his usual | summer business begins. The Scouf Committee, anxious to take advan- tage of this offer, is eager to know | just how far they can go in the way of finances. They hope every- one will get busy and send in a check for a “log,” or part of one. The list of loz purchasers fol- lows: Harold Post, M. L. Merritt, R. L.
