Welcome Teachers
This week will see the arrival of eight new teachers for
the Kodiak public and high schools, one of the largest such
.groups in recent years.
The town of Kodiak, and particularly the parents oi
children in school, welcomes them, and hopes their teaching
experiences in Kodiak will be all the newcomers look forward
to.
Starting his third year as superintendent is Ivor
Schott, who has administered the school now for two years in
an efficient and businesslike way. Kodiak is lucky to have
him at the head of its schools.
Directed by Schott, the many new faculty members
will do much toward maintaining the Kodiak public schools in
their position among the best in the territory.
Hal Junso will arrive the
first week in September few an
engagement at the Mont
martre Inn on the Hammond
Organ, A1 Miller, owner ol
the inn, announced yesterday,
Dr. A. Holmes Johnson wa:
confined to the hospital fo:
several days this week.
Mr. and Mrs. Jim Andrews,
and three children, formerly
of Walden, Colo., arrived here
last Saturday to make their
home.
Andrews, a carpenter and
i saddlemaker, is the father of
j Mrs. Jake Foley.
; The Andrews drove up the
Alcan Highway and flew here
from Anchorage.

Fine FIGHTING
At no other time was a willingness
to make an extra effort so import
ant to the early settler as when
fighting a fire. Whether it was
brought under control depended
upon how hard they worked, so
they acted accordingly. At the first
cry of “Fire!” everyone turned out
to do his part.
We believe that a bank should operate for
the benefit of everyone; that the more it
does to help the public, business and indus
try, the more the entire community — and
the bank — will prosper. That is the way
it works in America, where we have the
highest standard of living and the highest
wages in the world. We are always ready
to do our best to help in the development
of any worthwhile enterprise.
