j .COMMUNICATION
Ketchikan, Alaska.
March 4, 1916.
To the Editor Progressive-Miner:
Dear Sir: After having rend the
; statements of both parties in the
j North Cape affair and knowing
! what I do of the management at
! Dolomi, I think that both state
; nients are true in part, undoubtedly
j Mr. Boyce offered the use of the
| Grey “if they could get the engine
I to run” and undoubtedly he refused
I to let the Eurus go under an condi
j tion. Hie winter of 1911 and 1912
\ property at Dolomi and in the fall
before leaving, Mr. Eardley, the
S Co.’s manager, “dismantled and
j iayed up the Eurus (which was the
\ only boat we had at that time),
\ said “dismantling and laying up
i consisted of taking sails off and
! making her safe at the float for
| the winter (but 15 mi nutes after
I going aboard an engineer could
have gone to the aid of any one in
: distress), and gave me orders not
: to let her leave the float under any
conditions except in case of life or
: death and in that case to let her
go by all means. Since that t>me
the Co. bought a boat for the ex
press purpose of leaving there so
they would have her in case of need.
The question is after neglecting the
engine of the Gray until it got in
such a condition that it would not
run was Mr. Boyce justified in re
fusing the services of the Eurus
which as I understand could have
gone in a few minutes even though
she was “dismantled and boarded
over and laved up for the winter.”
Knowing and having been associ-1
ated with Mr. Eardley as I have
for the past 15 years I can say
there is not a man in Alaska that
would have gone quicker or done
more for the distressed boat than
he would had he been there. I re
ceived a letter from him this morn
ing concerning the affair which you
are at liberty to print if you choose.
I am vours truly
ALEX. ADKINS.

A “SPEECH CLINIC”
FOR STAMMERING
That distressing complaint, stam- j
mering, is now receiving special at- j
tention at the St. Thomas’s Hospi- i
tal, London. In former years the !
work of combating stammering was
for the most part confined to home j
treatment: but what is called :
“speech clinic” has now been esta- j
Wished as part of the children’s j
out-patient’s department of St. j
Thomas’s Hospiatl where cases are j
specially treated.
Under the superintendence of a
highly-qualified specialist, children
who suffer from stanunernig are
treated twice a week in what are j
known as instructional classes.
Cases are diagnosed and class!- j
fied by the help of the X-rays, j
which frequently disclose the imper- j
feet character of the respiratory ]
movements which are the chief
cause of stammering.
Some children are found to stam- ;
mer because of defective chest for- ]
mation; others because of ignorance :
neglect, or example of their parents, |
and others on account of nervous
ness.
In the first stages of the treat
ment a child is given breathing, vo- j
cal and musical exercises, while var
ious movements of the body are
employed in the cure; for it has
been found that from different phy
sical exercises children gain some '
beneiit which encourages them and
assists to break down the nervous ]
self-consciousness of their afflic- ;
tion.

UNIQUE HEATING SYSTEM ;
(Chicago Journal)
Whether it is practical or not, the
new system of heating for homes ,
devised by a Swedish inventor .
certainly has the distinction of be
ing unique. It is designed for
houses of from four to ten rooms,
and which is especially intended for
| localities where electrical current is
■ inexpensve. Hie system consists
! of two tanks, a motor-driven rotary
pump and the necessary' radiators
j and piping. One of the tanks is
- placed in the attic of the house and
i thermally insulated. In it are plac
ed the heating units which normally
i are only operated at night
i when the rates for electric current
are low. In the morning the heat
1 ing units are disconnected from the
! supply circuit and the motor-driven
j pump started. The 'water flows
down the piping and through the
radiators by the force of gravity
and is collected in a receiving tank
in the basement from where it is
pumped out and returned to the
tank in the attic.
