The $50-a-day-devils have their inning and take the break away in every foot of this thrilling fe ture. Thrill is a by-word to Holly- wood stunt men. Courageously, they brave every conceivable haz- ard, risking life and limb to crash automobiles into plate glass; fight on foot-wide prison walls; swing across buildings; fight on burning roofs; and tumble fifty feet to earth through a skylight. Here is the dramatic lowdown on how Hollywood performs difficult stunts which precipitate the ques- tion “Do they really do it” Bill Boyd employs his virile | pose Tl have to fill a pauper’s physque and personality with real- i grave.” | e | BOB TOUSSAINT LEAVES FOR TRIP TO SEATTLE Bob Toussaint, well known pion- | eer Alaskan, left on the North- western for a short trip to Seattle.

Business men, big and little, pro- fessional men, bankers and wage | carners, even those without jobs |are strong for President Roosevelt and ‘backing his program, Mr. Her- mann declared. ‘They contrast his aggressive and courageous course of laction with the inaction and timid- (ity of the preceding National ad- ELECTRIC Jmln{strnuon, and are as critical as SUNI.AMP jever ‘against the latter for ‘per- e of minahine |mitting things o el as bad ab Prices now 'they did, " he said. as low as M¥.

C, C._R. Cameron, Fred Alexander and Fred Cameron, about whom there was considerable con- cern felt in Juncau several weeks ago, arrived in Juneau yesterday, not perceptibly ady the worse for their arduous experience. The three men were taken into the Liard country on a prospect- ing trip in Capt. William Strong's plane last July with the under- standing that if would return to Wolf Lake to pick them uponSep- tember 25. In the meantime the plane was forced down and in- capacitated for flying until exten- sive repairs were made, and the date on which it was to have met the prospectors came and went. Waited 15 Days The three men waited at Wolf Lake for the plane for 15 days, when ‘with cold weather upon them and winter near, they decided to {walk out by way of Atlin. Mr. Alexander had been ex- tremely sick for five days, with what seemed like ptomaine poison- ing, before the party left the Liard for Wolf Lake and an Indian who had four pack dogs agreed to go out with them and take Mr. Al- exander's pack on the dogs. Heard Plane When they were two days out from Wolf Lake, the men heard a plane circling overhead but were unable to signal it, and realizing there was no landing place nearer than the lake, kept doggedly on. Aside from the fact that it was extremely cold, and they were all wearing summer clothing, the men suffered no particular hardships, according to Mr. Cameron. When they reached Teslin six days after leaving the lake, they procurfed warm clothes, and though it was stil cold they were much more comfortable, he said. Shot Caribou Their supplies, which consisted of ten pounds of rice, salt and a pound and one-half of tea, were augmented by meager additions which they obtained from sev- eral parties of Indians and two caribou which they shot. “We did not suffer from hun- ger, and in fact we really did not suffer at all, in spite of the fact that we crossed six summits with from one to three feet of snow on them, before we got out of the country,” Mr. Cameron said. 17 Days on Trail They were 17 days on the trail, at night in their sleeping bags. which protected them from the cold. The party, thinner, but other- wise in good health, arrived in Atlin on October 27 where they heard for the first time of the concern felt for them and of the Alaska Southern Airways plane sent for them by Gov. John W. Troy. After staying in Atlin for two days, they continued to Carcros and after two more days there proceeded to Skagway where they stayed a week before boarding the steamer Northwestern for Juneau Good - District “The country, which I believe is good district for prospecting abounds in game, moose, caribou ptarmigan, grouse and lots of Tish The caribou were so tame thal they would come right up to our camp fires and even seemed 1o follow us. We met three parties of Indians on the way out, all of whom were extremely cordial and willing to help in any way they could,” he declared. Mr. Cameron expects to make a trip south, but plans to return to the Liard country to continue pros- pecting. HIGH SCHOOL IS PRESENTED WITH ELAG BY D. A, R Ms. Clarer;::E.

PULL TOGETHER, BIVE NRA TRIAL Secretary Looks for Greater Purchasing Power WASHINGTON, Nov. for a fair trial of the new Recov- ery machine, Secretary of Agricul- ture Wallace last night told in- dustry and agriculture they must pull together without being unduly Jealous of each other to lift the loaf of depression out of the mra. The Secretary, in his speech, said: “Frankly speaking, the situa- tion has been a disturbing one but I believe that the recent in- crease in payrolls will soon be re- flected in stronger purchasing-pow- er city consumers for our butter, beef, pork and eggs. “There is encouragement for the {farmer in that and there s also consolation in the fact that the rapid rise of industrial prices seem ito have been checked.” The Secretary of Agriculturs added that farm prices have re- mained’ practically unchanged for the recent eight weeks. e ,,———— Daily Empire Wany Ads : NOW SHOWI | A complete assortment of Dance Frocks up to | $24.50 I WALLAGE URGES| of Agriculture| 7.—Asking I ‘0 AV ALCADE' AT CAPITOL LAST TIMES TONIGHT Tremendous Epic of Last 30 Years Deserves U stinted Praise | avalcade” is a picture you can [not afford to miss.
