LAUNCH TRAVELER
IS IN DEEP WATER
“Well, the Traveler is lost, but the
ice conditions had nothing whatever
to do with the unfortunate mishap,”
said Captain Cramer, who arrived in
a dory from Knik at noon today. “W«
got the launch a little too far up on
the beach. Three breast lines which
were holding the launch to the Goose
bay dock parted, throwing the lunch
with a vigorous lurch off into deep
water, which is very near the shore
at that place. 1 was on the launch
at the time. In two minutes the
launch filled with water. The outgo
ing tide took it across to Fire creek.”
Two men in a row boat followed the
launch to Fire creek. They bailed the
craft free of water, had lunch aboard,
and thought everything was all right.
When the tide came in, however, it
was found that the launch was leak
ing badly, and they were helpless, in j
the situation, to prevent it slipping
into deep water, where it sank and
now lies.—Cook Inlet Pioneer.
WAR HAS MADE EXPERT
GERMAN SALESWOMEN
LEIPZIG, April 5.—I)r. Wendtlana,
Chief Counsel to the Leipzig Chamber
of Commerce, the most important
commercial body in Germany, today
said:
“Women have taken the places of
men in every line. Most of our em
ployees in the Chamber of Commerce
are women and it is amazing how
well they take hold. Every store and
every office has its women assistants
today who do the work the men in
the field used to do.”
“But what arc the firms doing for
expert salesmen?” it was asked.
“Women now are the sales experts,”
he said. This is the day of the wom
an. Expert saleswomen are the pro
duct of this war.”
“But what are you going to do
after the war when the men return
from the front?
“There will not be much competi
tion then,” he replied. “Our losses
have been such that many of the
women who work today will be need
ed in their same positions after this
war.”
