THE COOPERATIVE SPIRIT IN ACTION
How fine it is when the civic forces of the community
cooperate in common purposes! The- spirit existing in
Seward is not to be passed unnoticed or forgotten. It has
been a spirit of combined effort which has brought good
results. To this extent Seward and the community adja
cent have advanced. To the extent that we have failed to
work together for the general good, the community has
been held back.
This is the whole proposition of growth of any com
munity. It does not imply that we should always agree
on every proposition. Healthy discussion, exchange of
ideas and even marked differences of opinion are the very
things that bring facts to light and settle issues.
There are community pounters as well as community
boosters. There is the type of fellow who won’t play un
less he can have his way. Along side of him fortun
ately in the great majority, are those who accept the will
of the majority and go ahead whether the particular
thing meets all of their desires or not.
The cooperative spirit in action is a wonderful thing.
It has made deserts bloom as the rose, cities tower to the
sky, smokestacks shoot great clouds of smoke into the
air from manufacture of the world’s commodities; it has
brought schools and higher education all along the line;
it has made men as brothers, and made fast friends of
mere acquaintances. Cooperation has made church spires
rise and point to the spiritual things as against the tem
poral.
In common parlance, cooperation in action means
simply “sticking things out.” If one doesn’t get all he
wants, there are always plenty of problems left. One’s
point of view determines their cooperation.
“THEM THAT HAS GETS”
To paraphrase the biblical dictum, “them that has
gets.” Once in a while we fondly cogitate, wondering
whether some of those ardent conservationists who have
made their fortunes by exploiting the timber and mines
and ranges and water power of the western United
States, would get high blood pressure about conserving
natural resources for future generations if they still had
to make their stakes in Alaska.
RETREJT IS PLANNED
FOR EKLUTKfl LUKE
Plans looking to the establish
ment cf a country club and retreat
at Eklutna Lake. where the Eklutna
Light & Power Co., is rapidly devel
cping the first unit ot hydro-elec
tric power, are under contenmla
.ion, and may fructify as soon as a
suitable roadway is built from the
railroad to the lake. It is the hope
to dee-, lop the lake into a tourist
retreat for side trips when passing
| thru Anchorage. There is fine fish
ing on the lake eight miles long by
la mb' in width, mountain scenery
and abundance of wild game such
els mountain goat, sheep and bear
It is expected the first unit of the
oower plant will be ready for oper
ation by midsummer.

TEST ORE DEPOSITS
TORONTO. March 1, (/P)—Cana
dian iron interests are exploring
the heavy ore deposits of western
Ontario to learn their commercial
possibilities. It is hoped these de
posits may be used as a source of
supply for Canadian furnaces. A
Carload of the ore has been shipp
ed from Kaministiquia, where de
posits amount to several million |
tons, to Ottawa for analysis. f
j Noel Wien, of the Wien Alaska
Airways, Fairbanks, made a trip
to Anchorage last week.
