Olaf Halverson told his stud
ents this week of the receipt of
a check for $100 from George
Slawson, to be used to procure
library books for the high school.
Better books than the dollar
ones now in the library can be
purchased, Mr. Halverson said.
Mr. Slawson, present city
magistrate, was not asked about
the donation because of a pos
sibility he would request that no
mention be made of it, but the
gift might be connected with
the fact that he at one period
taught school for 8 years.

Cannery Getting
Ready For Season
Publication of a notice of the
dissolution of the Frank McCon
aghy, Inc., operators of a local
cannery, in the Mirror, has led to
local confusion as to effects of
the step.
Mr. McConaghy, in a wire re
ceived Saturday by A. A. Sumer
lin, local cannery caretaker, says:
“Please advise our fishermen
and cannery workers, also otheis
interested, that the McConaghy
company disincorporation will
not interfere with cannery oper
ation. Now planning additional
tender and other equipment for
Kodiak and spring work on gear,
boats, and cannery to start
soon.”
The published notice indicates
a probable change in the finan
cial set-up of the cannery and
not, as many locally supposed, a
discontinuance of the company.
