Kodiak Mirror Celebrates i irthdey
ECHOS OF 41
Thirteen years ago to
morrow, the first Kodiak Mir
ror hit the street as a printed
Newspaper. The same head
ing "News of America’s Last
Frontier,” was at the 'ou of
'thepage and the dateline car
ir;el March 7, 1941 - • Vol. 1
I No. 1. Now lets go back
|through the years and sep how
[ Kodiak fared in those days
| First headline to attract
•ones attention was --$5000
A LOTTED. - - At a meeting
of the finance committee of
the City Council last week, at
which Mayor Chadwick was
• also present, a tentative bud
iget was drawn up covering an
(initial outlay of about $5000
for various municipal im
I provements.
j The major items in the list
i consisted of a building suffici
ently large to house the new
fire equ;pm nt recently pur
chased by the City, with a
couple of rooms in connection;
. a contract covering the truck
i ing and spreading of hund
reds of yards of gravel on the
' City streets; the construction
of a short road to the new
cemetary on Russian Hill; the
cost of completing assessment
and tax roll of the City of
Kodiak and the payment for
certain additional fire equip
ment recently purchased.
Application for additional
•construction funds for the
, New School Building have al
ready been placed in the
Legislature, and it is hoped
that favorable word wiil be
received shortly in this
matter.
Due to the resignation of
Councilman Becker from the
body, and absence of Council
!man Erskine now in the
’ States on business it was for
I the Mayor to appoint two ad
ditional members to the Fi
i nance Committee, which now
consists of Dr. Carter, chair
man, Edna Kraft and Charles
Hopp.

BANKS FIRST BIRTHDAY
Last Tuesday March 4th,
marked the irst birthday of
the Bank of Kodiak, for on
that day in 1940, its doors
were first thrown open to the
public. To celebrate the oc
casion, Mr. O. A. Torgenson
I president of the Bank has
placed a large candle, four
inches in diameter and two
feet long on the counter. The
] soft glow of candle-light at
tracts ones attention to the
nearby easel, upon which the
bank deposits are noted- - -;
$565,171.78. An excellent
aecord for it’s first year and
one of which Kodiak may well
be proud.
