THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE, MONDAY, JAN. 16, 1933. | It looks very much as if Billie Burke, widow the the great stage im- presario, Florenz Ziegfeld, succeeded where Ponce de Leon.failed and has found the “Fountain of Youth.” This picture, made ,when Miss Burke, now in films, lunched with her daughter, Patricia Ziegfeld. in Los Angeles, recently, provides an interesting problem for anyone not personally acquainted with the charming subjects: for it is almost impossible to tell which is mother and which daughter. But for your information Miss Burke is left. THE NEW Hupmobile IN TRUTH A CAR FOR A NEW AGE!

A capstan driven from the engine in the fishing sampan brings the net, in which the crabs are entan- gled, aboard. The fishermen's working day be- gins at 3 a. m. and averages 30 nets. No bait is used. the crabs walking into the mnets an getting caught by the foot in the dia- mond shaped mesh.

The first is located some 10 or 12 miles west of Amak Island; the middle ground about 35 miles h of Port Moller. The best fishing was found in water about 25 or 30 fathoms deep.

A NEW WAR STARTED Seemingly, there is a war on between the woodpeckers and squir- rels that will eventually extermin- ate them. It is over a large stand of old | growth high land hemlock, on the !north bank of Lemon Creek. Operations n Bristol Bay We called on the Forest Service to look into the situation but found the war had been known for some time. In cutting these trees to supply | the City of Juneau with fire wood ,we find the dry and semi-cured condition produces very large burrs and has become a great feeding ground for the squirrels. The tops of these trees are dead, hard and dry, the woodpecker uses; thent in the early morning to ;'thump his bill on and send his challenge to friends and foes alike, The squirrel doesn't like this, S0’ he attacks the woodpecker from behind, biting off his tail, causing him to lose his balance, falls over backwards, tears off his toe nails and down he goes and breaks his neck. The woodpecker defends himself by picking out the eyes of the squirrel; that puts him out of busi- 1285, 50 on goes the war. Now to stop this fight we are 30ing to cut down this excellent] stand of timber and fetch it into town for fire wood. The Morris Construction Co. has started an axtensive wood camp there, outlin- ng a ten-year program that will lurnish the city with the best of wood available. Now our hearts are in sympathy with these poor, little creatures in iaking their homes, but we console ourselves that we are going to give the people of Juneau a superior quality of wood that has great heat value. We are, cutting this wood into any length that is necessary to fit your stoves. Mr. E. A. Smith is our wood man. Call him or the Mor- ris Const, Co. and we will tell you mere about the war. “Any length, any time you wani it,” is our slogan. «—adyv.
