Now may I put it back in force? A. Until January 1, 1948, you may reinstate your NSLI by pay- ing only two monthly premiums, and signing a statement that your health is as good as at the time the policy lapsed. After that date, if your insurance has lapsed more than'three months, you must prove your insurability by passing a physical examination. BEA FRIENDLY SAYS t 6,95 Lace your [XX .

Henry M. Jackson an- nounel today a $38,930 supple- mental allowance by the iational park service.to the Olympic Na- tional Park for improvements dur- ing the current fiscal year. This makes a total bf $186,362 avail- able to the Olympic park for the year ending June 30, 1948. ] The original 1948 $148,432 allo- [ cation consisted of $92,000 for general administration, mainte-I/ nance and protection; $49,432 for I| road and trail maintenance; and/[ $6,000 for rehabilitation. l The supplemental $38,930 an-| nounced today includes $20,000 for improving the Olympic and Sol Duc hot; sp:ingz roads prelimi- nary to oiling, and $18,930 for tli'e following rehabilitation; camp- grounds $11,000, water systems $3,3(}0, buildings $3,630, signs and markers $1,000. THESE ARE part Of the im- provements which the Port Ange- les Chamber of Commerce recom- 'mended last month be added to the current year's program. , " Since congress made its annual lump sum appropriation to the na- tional park se,wice for distribu- tion among the various parks this year, Congressman Jackson has been urging the park service to allocate a larger share of its funds to the Olympic National Park. He emphasized the rel.tively small appropriations received by the park since its creation in June, 1938, and urged that this be made up by consideration more in keep- ing with the new park's size and needs. CHAIRMAN Sydney Tozier of the Port Angeles Chamber of Commerce national park develop-. ment committee expressed gratifi- cation at the supplemental allow- ance and said his committee rec- ommended preference to rehabili- tation of facilities that ran down badly during the war years. He said the committee took into consideration Supt. Preston Macy's advice that the original trail main- tenance allowance for this year probably will be all that can satis- factorily be used with the men available for interior park work. Supplemental 'funds thus will be used to. rhabilitate public camp- ing £acili[tes all around the park, and to prepare two main park roads for their first oil surfacing. MONEY IS sought in next year's road budget to permit oiling late next summer. This year the Olym- pic National Park acquired from war surplus property a road roller a bulldozer, an oil distributor, a portable rock crusher and three oil storage tanks. Thus the park is now well equip- ped to commence its first oiling program on the park's 117 miles of roads, as soon as it receives the needed operating funds, Toz- ier pointed out. All park roads need considerable improvement be- fore they will be ready for oiling'. The Olympic park constructed some new trail before the war with PWA money, but has never re- ceived any money for new road construction. HIGH ONthe park's priority construction list are two north side road projects: a six mile con- nection between existing Deer park and Hurricane ridge roads, and a 13 mile first class road from Heart o' the Hills around the east side of Mount Angeles to the Big meadow on Hurricane ridge. The public roads administration completed its survey for the latter road last month, and is now working up constrttction data at Portland regional office. ThePRA will build the road when funds are available from congressional ap- propriations to the national park sezTice. Construction will take sev- eral years.

A large part Of the time they were in the Wausau and Merrill homes of uncles, aunts and cousins. It wa on a fai'm between these two cities that Reinhart's father, the late John Goetsch. long time resident 'of Harstine Island lived many yeLrs before coming' west about the .beginning of the cen- tury. where two days were spent vis- iting places of interest in that 'city and along the shores of Lake Michigan. ON THE DAY of their depar- ture several hours were spent in seeing Chicago and several of its points of special interest includ- ing the Field :Museum of Natural History. Wherever the Goetschs went gifts were" showered upon them so that when they started for home it was necessary to pack a big box to add to their baggage. AT VANCOUVER, wlaez'e they picked up their car, a potted plant and a glass jar of tropical fish were added to their collection, which included fancy dishes, vases, hand-made linens and laces, souv- enirs of miiny kinds, figurines All ot]2er members of the John (two horses, a bear, an elephant, Goetsch fmnily, six brothers andla parrot, two love birds, a duck three sisters, remained in central and a squirrel), a bag of butter- Wisconsin, where, the families huts, a box of bittersweet berries. have branched out and increased a couple of samples of polished until their number runs into the hundreds. REINHART is the first of the John Goetsch family ever to return to visit the Wisconsin relatives, and he and his wife were received enthusiastically and entertained lavishly in many of the homes. They were taken to see many interesting sights and'places, in- cluding a trip to the summit of Rib Mountain, the highest point in the state, from which the sur- rounding country may be viewed in all directions for as far as the eye can. reach. Beautfful,Indian ummer weather I prey/lied, for the whole two] monthS, ..adding. greatly to thel pleaure..of the visit. [ AT THE beginning of their trip] Mr. and •.Mrs. Goetsch drove to] Vanoouver, Wash.. where they left theircar at the home of Mr. and[ Mrs. Vincent Strecker, formerly of Shelton (Mrs. Strecker and Mrs. Goetsch are sisters). From Vancouver the trip to Wis- ' consin was made on the Great Northern's Empire Bullet, the fast streamliner which made the 2,000 miles in exactly 39 hours and 40 minutes, through Washington, Idaho, Montana, North Dakota, Minnesota and into Wisconsin. Before leaving Wausau the Goetschs received an invitation to visit a cousin in Gary, Ind. They accepted and were met at the train Rib Mountain granite, hundreds of photographs, two hand woven rugs, and a quart of home-made maple syrup. This syrup was in a glass jar and was carefully carried with the hand luggage while on the train and guarded diligently whenever DOCTOR, DO  I'VE /OU THIMK f NEVER CANBEIES  HEAR[ A5 HEALTFIV.I " ONE .
