EVEN IN WINTER
<* ■
“Bottled Sunshine,' is what Alberta t
Barnes, a local machinist and a gen
ius, calls his now invention—a caloric
contrivance which he uses to heat his
house in winter and to do the wash
ing, ironing and all other household
tnsks requiring stored force.
On the hottest days In summer Mr.
Barnes catches the rays of the sun at
the focus of a bright tin roof on his
house and conveys the heat to his
barn, which he has remodeled into an
Immense model of a flrcless cooker
$>ox. In this building great squares
of artificial stone are placed and the
heat Is stored within these big disks.
These are closely packed inside bales
of pressed straw. The stones hold
more than 1,200,00 calories of heat,
sufficient to heat his houso all wintei
and to supply all needed extra heat,
ss ■ ■ . Li, =nr:. .*1
Mr. Baines clUims that it took only
ten days last Burner to charge his
hot storage plant. The idea for the
contrivance originated with Mr.
Barnes when ho was trying to paint
.ihe roof of his house on a hot uay.
Finding such great heat on the tin
he wus curious to know if food could
be cooseU mere, and taking a beef - j
steak to the roof ho left It. After
a wait of an hour he crawled to thi <
top of the house and found the steak
cooked to n, crisp. This incident, gave 1
him the idea for his Btorage plant.
Hundreds of visitors are viewing
the dish-shaped roof, the hothouse
and heating system at the home of
Mr. Barnes, who says that as there Is
no meter on the sun he docs not ex
pect to pay a cent for heat the re
mainder of his life.
EVANGELIST SUNDAY TO
MAKE TOUR OF ALASKA
EVANGELISTIC WORK
__
Deputy Marshal Paul Bnckley, 01
Unalaska, went to tho states recent
ly with a number of lnsano prisoners
from the westward and as a result of
■the trlj) Billy Sunday, the noted evan
gelist, will tour Alaska next summer.
The Seattle Star gives the following
account of the meeting of Buckley
and his old-time friend at Portland:
One interprets tho law of God.
"The other enforces the laws of
man north of 53."
"Wednesday they met for the tlrst
time in over 20 years—Billy Sunday,
the evangelist, and Paul Buckley, U.
S. deputy marshal at Unalaska.
"Both were sorry hat It isn’t tho
America a fashion for men to give one
another a friendly hug.. They want
ed to.
"Sunday and Buckley, beforo they
drifted apart, were team-mates on
Pop ^neon's famous old Chicago Na
tionals, 'way back in the 80s.
"Before that they played together
in the Marshalltown, la., team, the
crack aggregation of their day in that
neck of the woodts.
“Billy Sunday played third, and
Buckley caught.
"Then Buckley went north, chasing
the wlll-oo’-wlsp gold, while Sunday
staked claims for God Almighty In
mens’ souls. And for 20 years their
trails didn’t cross.
“Wednesday the ‘sourdough’ who
had come out rrom Unalaska on bus
iness for a few days, was getting in
to a Pullman at Portland on his way
to Seattle. They bumped Into one
another and fell upon each other
And they ulmqst broke that Amerl- '
can bar against hugging,
j "Buckloy met ‘Ma and tho Kids.'
The two men looked at the bumpy
and bruises on their hands, souven
irs of the old days, chuckling like
kids. They talked about God and
gold and tho grand old game.
"Sunday went through Seattle on
his way to Victoria and Vancouver.
“And now Billy Sunday is planning
I to go into Alaska next year, Buok
) ley is going to arrange the trip for
him.
"That ought to be a great combi
nation, the minions of God's and
mans’ law working together north of
’63.”
"And unless Billy, and Paul cross
their signals. I predict a shut-out for
the baclzsllders up there under tho
northern lights.”
