The father’s totems will be sold by the Indian Office and the proceeds turned over for the sup- port of the youngster, Assistant Dis- i s i e e s S S-S S S . B S - A S S -8 trict Attorney George W. Folta said. The story of the Harris lad sounded much like the tale of pri- vation and hardship in the slums of a great city, the prosecutor said. The boy had been shifting for him- self, sleeping where he could find sheiter, taking blankets out of auto- mobiles to keep himself warm and getting food in various ways. “Maybe it can’t happen outside | of a city,” Folta said, “but it hap- pened right here in Juneau. We it won't happen again here.” The criminal charges in the case said. | B —— | MRS. GEORGE RETURNS Mrs. Wallis 8.

It had everything. Huge overstuffed chairs, handsome carved light- wood mantel, and the most modern central lighting fixture you ever saw. The wall covering was that new stipple-type paper and the rug had lovely soft-toned floral sprays woven in the design. ‘With the passage of time the room lost charm. At length it ‘became hopelessly outmoded. The owner decided to spend a small sum for modernization and te refurnish it according to the trend of the times. As shown below the room was completely transformed. The charming drawing room was achieved by redoing the walls, in- stalling a mew and appropriate mantel, rewiring and equipping with modern fixtures, and completely refurnishing. The renovation did Imot call for any structural change. It is an example of what can be ‘dane in many old houses to bring the reoms back to beauty. 4 Amended FHA Property-Improvement Loan provisions enable you to secure up to FRIEND S'GLUM?2 for YOURS CAN DO FOR YOUR HOME!

DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE PR ———————————— AR A R A \Before, After Modernization The first scene depicted above shows an unfinished basement room that is serving as a storage room for discarded odds and ends of furniture, magazines, and assorted bits of unwanted glass and china- ware. It is typical of the basement rooms in many homes today. The second illustrates what can be done to salvage this space by the expenditure of a slight amount of money for modernization. The walls have been treated with plaster board, as has been the ceiling, a new flooring laid, and a pleasant, serviceable game room created. Funds for this type of modernization may be obtained under the FHA Property Improvement Credit Plan. See a lending institution or your district FIA agent about your modernization problems.
