OF RESIDENTS
OF KENNECOTT
KENNECOTT, July 29 (Special to
the Daily Times).—On Saturday after
noon, July 26, Deborah Vickery was
the tiny hostess of a “truly” party,
celebrating her third birthday. Her
elder sister, Jane, aged five, assisted
in receiving the following guests:
Patricia Healy, William Douglas, Jack
Foster, Patrick Henry Sweeny, James
O. Jenson, Mildred Ericson, Johanne
Jenson. Some of the guests were
only, able to look on and wonder what
it was all about, and others could not
say much about anything, but they
understood each other, and eyes as
blue as the skies looked love and good
fellowship to eyes of brown, and roses
bloomed on plump little cheeks and
tinkling laughter made music to the
ears of a few mere grown-ups privi
leged to be present. The weather man
(not the Cordova one) was in most
gracious mood, and gave the sun
shine royally; the spruces donated
their pungent balsamic odor, the wild
rose added its perfume, and all na
ture conspired to make the day a
perfect one. Even the mosquitoes de
clared an armistice, enabling the “so
lovely” swing to be occupied every
moment spent in the open, and when
the call for refreshments came and
the little ones trooped indoors they
found such a pretty table, laden with
mounds of ice cream and cookies and
other goodies, and three candles
alight on the birthday cake, which the
small hostess was sure she cut all
alone, not knowing that a guiding hand
was there. The refreshments were
enjoyed equally as well by the elders,
and all joined in wishing little De
borah many returns of the day.
On Wednesday Katherine Dennis
and Edith Wilson gave a tea at their
playhouse that showed much ingenu
ity in its construction and furnishings,
as did their stove, which w*as made of
oil cans, and while their cakes and
cookies were baked by their own ef
forts at their homes, the tea was
brewTed in their own house and on
their own stove, and it was all much
appreciated by their guests, Mrs. Lom
mel, Mrs. Wilson and Mrs. Clulow,
Their party was so much enjoyed that
th#>y followed it up by another on
Thursday, entertaining Mrs. Groff
Mrs. Gillespie, Mrs. Knapp, Mrs. Den
nis and Mrs. Prout.
The housewives of Kennecott now
knowr that they have successful rivals
in the culinary art in these twro little
girls, who also recently planned,
cooked and served a five-course din
ner for a neighbor, and did it without
assistance.

He is an old timer—been in Alaska for 21
years—and just back in the States. He
i was visiting the Goodrich Factory and we
I asked him, of course, if he ever used our
Goodrich “Hi-Press” Boots and Shoes
while he was up there, and he said—
’ 4 ‘Say, those are some shoes you people make. , v
i Why, I remember one time when my part
ner and I went over the hills and I wore a
pair of your Goodrich White Pacs. He 4
didn’t! And he wore out six pairs before
we got back—1 still wore my first pair.”
1 - There’s the result of making Goodrich
Rubber Footwear the new way,—IN ONE :
1 SINGLE PIECE—rubber tough as steel—
i no leaking, no peeling, no half-soling. And
they’re comfortable—feel like old shoes
, before you’ve worn them 24 hours.
We make all kinds,—shoes, boots, shorts
and hip, for mining, fishing, logging, pros
pecting, etc. They always have “The Red
