NATURE SCENES
FROM INTERIOR
TO BE PICTURED
The growing demand in the movies
is for nature pictures, especially of
those which are not seen by the aver
age traveler. The old “love and in
• trigue” pictures pall on the movie
fans. Thousands of people are clam
oring to see such pictures as a hunt
ing trip to the White river and the big
game to be seen on such a trip. Such
pictures as these are to be produced
by a prominent McCarthy resident.
Captain J. P. Hubrick will spend
next year in photographing wild life
as seen by Alaskans. The captain is
a veteran hunter and guide, having
spent twenty-two years in Alaska and
the Yukon. He knows the habits and
habitat of the big game animals, and
should get results.
Captain Hubrick will use the latest
Edison moving picture machines, op
erated by an expert, and a crew of
six men and a dozen horses. He says
there will be no shooting done unless
some cantankerous bear refuses to
pose before the camera.
The pictures are to be taken in the
White River country. Interspersing
the animal pictures will be glacier
scenes, pack trains swimming rivers
and traveling on dangerous trails,
boats shooting the rapids in the upper
canyon, and last but not least, the big
caribou drive in the fall. He also
expects to get some splendid pictures
of our own town, including a reel of
the boiling pot hole in front of .Mc
Carthy, which is one of the seven groat
wonders of Alaska. McCarthy News.
ARIZONA PUBLIC MARKET
TO ASSIST IN REDUCING
HIGH COST OF LIVING
WARREN, Ariz., Nov. 5 (by Associ
ated Press). L. A. Engle Post of the
American Legion has enlarged the
scope of its activities to include a fight
against the high cost of living. The
fight is being successfully waged, ac
cording to a statement issued by Ira
B. Joralemon, chairman of the “high
— i i- _u™_»___.
cost of living committee” of the post.
The post established August 30 at
Lowell an open-air municipal market
to serve the people of the district in
cluding that city, Warren and Bisbee.
The ranchers were skeptical the first
day, and although the opening of the
market had been well advertised, only
eighteen small truckloads of produce
were taken there by ranchers of the
near-by valleys. But the fact that the
produce was disposed of by 11 o'clock
that morning inspired confidence, and
since that time the sales have aver
aged from $1,500 to $2,200 each
Wednesday and Saturday, the two mar
ket days.
“The ranchers,” according to Mr.
Joralemon’s statement, “sell a lot of
stuff they otherwise could not dispose
of, since the stores buy principally
from the larger ranches, which can
guarantee a steady supply. The peo
ple get absolutely fresh produce at
prices averaging less than 60 per cent
of prices they previously had to pay."
The county supervisors, Mr. Jora
lemon said, have agreed to provide
funds for a suitable building for a
permanent municipal market to be
operated by -the “high cost of living
committee" of the post.
CUB WILL MAKE GOOD SCOUT
There are times when a scoutmas
ter must tell someone that one of his
kids is a mighty fine little scout or
“bust" trying to keep still. P. T.
Bunion of Troop No. 2, Winfield, Kan.,
sends this letter about one of his
scouts:
“For three years he has been work
ing with the scouts, as best he could,
not being old enough to he registered.
He Is an honest tittle fellow, smnll
for his age and quiet in disposition,
but will play bis jokes. Does not
start any disputes, but will figlit for
iiis rights, and takes well with other
boys.
“Two years ago, at the age of ten
years, while on a bike by himself,
playing scout, lie came in contact
with a large rattlesnake, which bit
Mm on his wrist. He finished killing
it, then put a tourniquet on his own
arm. cot off the snake's rattles, and
walked two miles home, picking at
the wound to kdep It bleeding so as
to wash out as much poison as pos
sible. So tight did be twist the tourn
iquet that he shut the circulation of
blood off from bis arm, so that none
of the poison reached his body. Good
for a ien-year-old, wasn’t It?
“Last summer, age eleven, he res
cued a full-grown man from drown
ing by throwing out a long grapevine
which the man held to. As he puts
it, he threw a grape harbor out to
Mm.”
