M. Miller Superintendent of the Douglas Canning Co., spotted a boat burn- ing in the Channel and called in the alarm. The department was unable to assist the stricken boat, owned by the McLaughlin brothers, who re- cently came here from California, intending to settle in the far West- ward as cattle ranch later this Fall. However the cannery tender Peewee went immediately to its ald and soon had the fire under control with the aid of extinguish- ers. Douglas firemen also attend- ed on William Anderson’s small boat, furnishing extra fire ex- tinguishers. GLAS' 'BROTHER GOING 10 SEARCH FOR MISSING FLIER LETHBRIDGE, Alta., Aug. 1 — ph Barber, James- town, been missing in the wilderness since June 28, expressed belief today that “Joe is still alive” and announced his intention of leaving for the North to con- duct a personal search. The brother, John Barber, an- nounced his intention despite word from Edmonton that Canadian au- thorities were abandoning the search, one of the longest in the history of the Northwest. The Northwest Air Command of the RCAF at Edmonton said a party of searching soldiers would come out of the bushland today and re- turn to Edmonton by air. “Joe is an experienced war pilot and has a good, steady head and good judgment,” the missing pilot's brother said. He added that he planned to go to Ft. Nejson, B. C., 100 miles south of where Barber's light plane was found practically undamaged in a creek bed. Barber was flying the lane to Anchorage, Alaska, when he ap- parently made a forced landing. The plane later was found by aer- ial searchers, but an RCAF res- cue squad dropped by parachute fcund no trace of the pilot. Later an experienced northern {tracker was landed on an emergen- cy strip hewn out of the wilderness near e grounded plane by the para-rescue squad When he failed to find Barber's trail, a contingent of Canadian in- fantry was flown north and trekked to the scene from the Alaska High- way. Recently the Army reported finding tracks that might have been made by Barber, but located no trace of the pilot. - D STARTS SATURDAY August fur sale at Charles Gold- stein Company.

This method was decided upon after much discussion on ways and means of obtaining the contribution allotted the Lions to pay into the| | Memorial Library Fund, the Lions | Club treasury containing only suf- ficient funds for the necessary ad- ministrative expenses. The Rain Pool will post a chart with the listings, by month, of the rainfall for the last ten years as a | guide for the contestants. A ticket sale will be held each month with anyone who cares to participate | buying tigkets and placing their | guess as to the number of inches of rainfall they expect during the . month. The actual amount of rain- fall will be guaged and these making the most nearly correct answers will receive cash awards with the*re- mainder of the proceeds going to some worthy commnunity project. - — WEATHER REPORT (U.
