On the first floor.is a cooling room, bottling room, customers’ room, an ice room and a sterili- zation room. It also contains a small boiler room. ! The sterilizing equipment is a machine that soaks, brushes, rinses| and sterilizes each bottle, and is capable of being operated by one man. | A hand-operated bottle filler and capper is another addition to the plant. It fills and caps 12 to 16 bottles per minute. It has a monel metal tank holding 16 gallons of milk. Fill in Grounds The site of the plant, which was low and somewhat swampy, has been cleared of old trees, stumps and drained and filled in with rock, gravel and sand. More than 2,000 yards of this was hauled. Be- neath the larger building the fill is five and one-half feet deep. | The space between the big build- ing and the milk house has also been gravel-filled. e, Rubin Not Funny at Home; Divorce| | LOS ANGELES, May 4—Bennie ‘Rubin may be funny on the stage and radio but at home he was just \“a temperamental grouch,” Mary | | Rubin testified in securing a di-| |vorce from the comedian on the grounds of extreme mental cruelty.

PHONES 92—95 FIVE FAST DELIVERIES DAILY - CHARITY DRIVE FOR PENNIES IS ON WAY TODAY Seattle Children’s Ortho- pedic Hospital Canvass Meets Good Response The Children’s Orthopedic Hos- pital Penny Drive, started in Ju- neau this week at the invitation of Mrs. Gilbert W. Skinner, of Se- attle, chairman of the drive this year, is meeting ‘with a friendly re- sponse locally. Most Juneau people are familiar with the work of the Children’s Orthopedic Hospital in Seattle. Twenty-five Alaskan chil- dren are receiving treatment in the Orthopedic now. While most of these little patients are not charity cases, no charity case is ever refused and 93 per cent of the Orthopedic work is free. Five hundred little red heart en- velopes were sent to Juneau by Mrs. Skinner for distribution here. Today, a committee, with Mrs. J. F. Mullen, chairman, Mrs. I. Gold- stein, Mrs. J. J. Meherin, Mrs. Mervyn Sides and Mrs. Robert Bender, members, is distributing enveldpes through the business dis- trict, and Miss Gladys Forrest left one hundred of the enevelopes in the offices in the Federal Build- ing yesterday. ‘ The envelopes will be collected in a week, and the committee hopes that in the meantime they will have accumulated pennies, nickles and dimes for the little children in the Orthopedic. The first big help the local com- mittee received was from W. S. Pullen, manager of the Alaska Electric Light and Power Com- pany, who took ten envelopes yes- terday, and returned them today with checks of $25 from the Alas- ka Electric Light and Power Com- pany, $5 from W. 8. Pullen, and $6.78 in cash, collected in envelopes he distributed to friends. There will be Penny Drive En- velopes in all of the business hous- es in the city, and in this manner it is hoped that everyone in Ju- neau will be reached to contribute something, however small, to the Orthopediic. If anyone, not down- |town during the week, wishes an | envelope in which to make his con- | tribution, they may telephone The | Empire, and an envelope will be | | delivered to them. PLANE BARANOF MAKES CHARTER TRIP TO SITKA This morning at 8:30 o'clock the seaplane Baranof, piloted by Gene Meyring, with Lloyd Jarman, me- chanie, left its Juneau base on a charter trip to Chichagof and Sit- ka.
