CEMENT WALKS
FOR COURT HOUSE
Valdez Court House Grounds Wil
Have Finest Walks in
Alaska
There's a busy bunch of feder
al officials ut the court house
this morning and the tilings thej
are doing will open the eyes ol
.Valdczans. What is left of tin
personnel of the marshal's officc
arc becoming enthused over the
rapid growth of their lawn and
garden and suddenly conceived
the idea of putting in concrete
walks and today they arc as busy
as bees hiving. AI. Sullivan is
generalissimo, superintendent dc
facto and lord high executioner—
that is, he executes the boss stunt
to perfection, lloraoc De Line is
timekeeper, C.liarles WullT straw
boss, and Harry Shult/.e wields
the pancake, turner in finishing
of the cement. At times he is
impeded in his efforts to il<> rap
id worn by the jail chef railing
for the pancake, turner with
which 11' Hop another ilotigh god.
The pp'smers hove laid down a
crushed slone foundation which
is beiiiii tainpeij with Hie cliurn
• lasher. The cement is being
thoroughly mixMi in the bread
pan un-l.'r the supervision of Mr.
Sehulf/e. who is a graduate of the
Nebraska Gonerele University.
IVIr. Shnllze is working an inova
Jion in cement, laying by binding
)ho material, as is done will)
plaster, having elipped (he olViee
vat to gel the neeessary hind'ng
fnalerial.
Later on Hie walks will be yiv_
en a granite-like appearance by
splolching them witli the mar
shal's shoe blackening during
that official's absence in the
stall's. The crew have not yet
decided whether or not it is bel
ter to whitewash Ihe big office
safe, but il is an immortal cinch
that (he court house grounds will
have the finest walks in SimjIIi
weslrrn Alaska.

point. The oilier vein, while more
difficult to work, being a sinking
proposition, is richer in values.
