“a specialty”
GEORGE KAPPOS
, Proprietor
Gift To FDR
A beautiful 9 1-2-feet Kodiak
bear rug, a fitting memento of
Kodiak which has achieved
world-wide renowD as the habi
tat of “The World’s Largest
Bear”, was given to President
Roosevelt at the time of his
visit.
However, because of the bre
vity of the President’s visit no
formal presentation was made.
The idea of the gift was Char
les Madsen’s, owner of the To
tem Igloo Curio shop, president
of the Kodiak Guides Associa
tion, and famous hunter, who
thought it would be an appro
priate souvenir for the President
and who gave it as a gift from
the people of Kodiak. Arrange
ments were made so hurriedly
that the mounted hide, packed
in a large carton topped with
green wrapping paper, had to be
taken by auto to Erskine’s dock
and was there picked up by a
small naval launch.
A naval public relations officer
said he understood the hide was
destined to be placed in the
| President’s den at Hyde Park.
City To Change
Garbage Hauling
Following a discussion Mon
day night at the city council
meeting regarding hauling of
city garbage, which is now done
by private parties, the council
! ordered that an ordinance be
J drawn up providing that the
city engage in garbage hauling,
j The ordinance will have its first
reading at the next council
meeting.
! Criticism was voiced by City
1 Health Officer Dr. A. Bates
l Jones, and by council members,
| that pick-up of garbage at res
k taurants and other places are
delayed in many cases with a
resultant hazard to health
! Members expressed the belief
i that the present haulers are
often delayed in the removal of
refuse because they also engage
in freight and moving work, and
that one city truck, devoted ex
clusively to garbage, will remedy
the situation.
