Beal recently acquired a large block of placer ground in the Atlin | district and said sluicing began Sat- |urday on Pine Creek where he is operating a dmghne unit. Most of Pme Creek and its tri- butaries, commexable ground on Consolidation Creek and some on Spruce Creek, totalling about 35 miles of ground, constitute Beal's holdings in the Atlin district, Although much of the ground has been worked by rough method be- fore, it is believed considerable vir- gin ground will be encountered and prospects for a successful operation are bright. Out, of touch with his office*for six weeks, Beal, who is Vice-Presi- dent of Iniskin Oil and heavily in- terested in their oil operations at Chinitha Bay on the Alaska Pen- insula, was unable to say definitel; as to whether or not drilling oper- ations at the bay will be resumed. The company finished drilling at 8,700 feet last summer and their leases from the government expired, but Beal said it appeared as though the leases will be renewed and drill- ing work will get under way again qext summer. Also flying over with Beal from Atlin yesterday were Mr. and Mrs. William Beal, his father and moth- er who sailed south today, and A. M. “Sandy” Smith, well known for- mer Juneau prospector who ac- quired most of the Atlin ground for Beal. Beal will' meet his wife in the morning and fly north to Fairbanks, returning to Atlin after a few days of business, there. He is at the Baranof Hotel.

If that's a surprise to you, you might bear in mind the saying “there are no problem children only problem pgrents.” Today there is a trend among educational thinkers against mak- ing the parent the goat for all juvenile shortcomings, but that doesn’'t free the parent from great responsibility. ‘There are many reasons why you may be a problem parent — from neglect to pampering. Many of these faults can be overcome il you have in mind a clear concep- tion of what ycu are trying to do. First, you are trying to make your child a member of society, conventional at least to the ex- fent of getting along easily with others, and mindful of rights and privileges of others. Second, you are trying to teach your child to stand on his own feet—to be indepen- dent. Those, it seems to me, are twc great objectives ot child .raining. When a parent measures his ac- tions and motives against them, h: sometimes finds the solutioris easy For _instance, if you demand gbedience from your child, are you doing it altogether o ake him a law-abiding citizen or mostly . to gratify yourself or tio ease your own life at the ex- pense of his independence? No expert can tell you, It pends on the child, on tkre cumstances of the momens, on. the parent. It is at this point zuidance systems fall the parent who relies any one system or set of rules or book or authority must - variably come a cropper. The most fundamental thing about child guidance theories is ‘that they should be flexible. Only the problem parent knows it all or re- fuses to Jearn new things every day. de cir- and child down.

HOLLYWQOD, Cal, June 17.—Robert Taylor made an inter- esting discovery today about Robert Taylor. “Man,” he said, laughing. “I must have been a stinker. I never knew how much I must have stunk until I made that picture,” He was talking about “Waterloo Bridge,” the picture in which ex-pretty boy, ex-juvenile Taylor attained his movie majority by making love to the most torrid of the current cuties, Vivien Leigh. People have been telling Taylor nice things about his performance; people always tell actors nice things about their performances—to their faces; Taylor was accustomed to that, too. “But when they say it now,” he said, “they say it with a sort of at-long-last expuression—as if they can tell me now, con- identally, how bad I was before. I always knew I was a stinker but I never suspected how much of one until now.” Mervyn LeRoy, who directed “Waterloo Bridge” and is direct- ing Taylor, Norma Shearer and Nazimova in “Escape,” put in his oar, “Just wait till they see this one,” he said. were good in ‘Waterloo Bridge'!” | “I'm going to.stink,” said Bob. matter-of-factly. | you're kidding—but I'm going (o stiuk LeRoy demurred, seriously. “You're going to be good.™ “I'm going to stink,” said Bob, who seemed to be in a stink- PERCY'S CAFE OPEN ALL Nlfill'l‘ “They’ll forget you “You think ing meod..~“Its-@ teugh - part—I'm in it all tie. time~—and shey're going to tear me to pieces.” He looked game for the tearing, and that's the story of the triumph of Taylor, If ever a lad took a beating in Hollywood, that lag was Taylor. Unknown one day, the high-school girl's delight the next, Taylor rose rapidly and his the skids with equal speed. His quick vogue landed him in the, “top ten” list—and the new year's list found him nowhere apout. He was ribbed mercilessly about his “beauty” and his status as matinee idol. Some say the ‘virile” treatment given him—yanking him out of “great lover” roles into he-man, outdoor stuff like “A Yank at Oxford,’ “Roar of the Crowd” and “Stand Up and Fight’—did the trick. What really happened was that Taylor, somewhere enroute between mere bewildered youth and his present success, developed a sense of humor. He never could understand why, when a fellow was just trying to get along and mind his own business, keeping his feet on the groynd and putting on no airs, the should be picked on. But he learned to laugh it off, and—as usually happens —the picking stopped. A girl named Stanwyck, who has been Mrs. Taylor for a year now, doubtless had much to do with the change for if there’s a level head and a laugh in town, Mrs. Taylor has both. This Taylor boy, despite “Waterloo Bridge,” still has no great ideas about his “art.” He wants to stay away from the “juvenile” stuff if he can, but he’s plenty happy to keep on doing as he's told by the boss. His next picture: “Flight Command.” OO OO OO RERA
