CHICAGO CONTRACTOR
REMEMBERS WITH RIFT
VISIT TO SEWARD I. C.
As a token of esteem in which he
holds the Seward Athletic Club, in
whose gymnasium he had several
good work-outs, during his visit here
enroute to the Westward on a hunt
ing trip, Avery Brundage of Chicago,
three times 'member of the American
Olympic team, sent the local organi
zation a box of 12 hand balls similar
to those used in the Chicago Athletic
Club.
Mr. Brundage says he arrived back
home around the first of this month
and while playing his first game of
hand ball in the club court, was re
minded of the Seward Club. He
trusts that the members will find the
balls satisfactory and that they will
enjoy many friendly contests with
them.
T'pon leaving Seward Mr. Brundage
returned to Seattle via the Yukon,
Dawson and Skagvvay route. In his
let‘er yesterday to Leonard Hopkins,
he says while in Dawson he saw an
old out-door one wall court which
was almost covered with grass and
weeds. It evidently had been erect
ed by some fan in the days of pros
perity in the Klondike. This ruins,
he says, Seward ’s claim for the far
thest north handball court, although
Seward can rightly say it has what is
probably the farthest north court iu
actual use, for the one in Dawson
has not been played on in many
years. Mr. Brundage ended his let
ter in asking to be remembered to
hi? Seward friends.
Rev. Thomas P. Graham, minister
of the Seward Community church, re-|
turned home Wednesday evening from
accompanying friends to Anchorage.

LINDY WRITES A NOTE
Among the many letters received
in New York by Col. Lindbergh one
morning recently was one from a boy
in Boston, who wanted the aviator to
fly over the hospital in which he was
a patient.
The request appealed to Lindbergh,
but as it could not be complied with,
he wrote the lad a note and sent it
with q photograph by air mail. The
note said.
“Dear Ned:
‘<1 saw your letter today just before
leaving pn my tour of the country. I
can’t fly over the hospital in Boston
where you are because it would be
against the law, but in order not to
disappoint you entirely, I am sending
you a picture of myself and the “Spi
rit of St. Louis,” which you can show
to the other boys and girls who are
with you.
“f hope you will be well soon and
that you can get back to your home in
Spokane in time for the air races in
September There will be lots of avi
ators there and you can see them
close up.
"With my best wishes.
“Charles A. Lindbergh.”
And when he received that note and
photograph it is easy to believe that
Ned was the proudest boy in Boston.

Yes! This Washer does the LAST
HARD Half as well as the Washing
TO have complete relief
from washday drudgery,
you must have freedom from
the Last Hard Half—hand
rinsing and all wringing. The
Wringer less Savage Washer
and Dryer does this Last Hard
Half for you!
Savage Users Avoid
Washday Fatigue
ON washday do you labo** with your
hands in hot water? 1\> vou use set
tubs for rinsing and bluing? Y> > ou handle
the clothes piece by piece? Do you strain
your back and risk personal injury feeding
them through a wringer? If so you are
needlessly doing hard and hazardous work.
If you do the rinsing and feed a wringer
you yourself are doing the Last * lard Halt.
For at most, washing and bluing is onlv
the first half of the complete job.
But remember, you can own a washer,
the wringerless Savage, with its “Spin
Rinse, Spin-Dry” that saves you the Last
Hard Half—hand rinsing and all wring
ing, as well as the work of washing. And
it’s safe!
Picture the Savage doing this for you!
In a few minutes it washes everything
thoroughly. Then without putting a hand
in the water the clothes are spin-rinsed in
the same tub by a flowing spray of fresh
hot water direct from the faucet. In two
minutes shut off the water; then, without
any effort on your part, the Savage spin
j dries the whole load in one minute more. t
Already over 100,000 women are letting
the Savage, with its “Spin-Rinse, Spin
Dry” do the complete job for them.
Why not permit us to show you how
the Savage does the complete job — wash
ing, rinsing and drying—in less time than
you can do it by any other mechanical
method?
For we will gladly show you, w ithout obli
gation, in your own home how the wringer
less Savage ends the Last Hard Half.

LONDOlUSS HOUSE
HAS 25 ACRE ROOF
LONDON, Aug. 26. (/P)—Luckily no
one lives in London’s glass house,
the Crystal Palace. Co the old saw
about the throwing of stones does
not hold.
The Crystal Palace, one of the
largest amusement halls in the world,
is famous for its glass roof with 25
acres of glass. Two hundred feet
above the ground, it contains thous
ands of panes. When the Palace
was reopened in 1920, $400,000 was
spent in reconditioning the roof.
Since then workmen have all but liv
ed on the roof, keeping it in condi
tion. Wire-netting is stretched un
der most of it.
