Few people need hearing aids
when money is talking.
If everyone profited by their
mistakes many would be able to
pay dividends.
Many a man is forced to turn
over a new leaf because his wife
can read him like a book.
Don’t let temporary unfavor
able conditions depress you.
SPEND A HAPPY.

Mining Claims along First Ave
nue to the bay.
Possession of this property
would give the city all the water
rights on Marathon, control of
Lowell Canyon water rights, and
control of Bear Mountain in
cluding frontage on Resurrection
Bay, which controls alone are
priceless to the community.
Mr. Brownell states that poor
health does not permit him to
develop his homestead as a resi
dential area, but that he is un
willing tp dispose of it to any
individual, knowing its value
to the future of the city.
Only one restriction is to be
placed upon the sale, and that
is a requirement that the moun
tainside shall never be denuded
of forest. Streets and homes may
be built upon the hillside, but
it must remain parklike and
trees cut only under supervision
by the Forestry Service. The
lake which adjoins the park and
school reserves may then remain
as a public park.
Councilmen McRae, Whitmore
and Kirkpatrick, as the com
mittee investigating the propos
al, will bring a recommendation
of approval to the City Council,
which includes the proposition
by the committee that the entire
area be named Brownell Park.
It will be put to a vote of the
people very shortly.

Navy Captain
'Continued from Page 1)
when the Navy put into Seward
regularly.
Sewardites are delighted with
Commander McDonald and the
staff of the NCSO, expressing
unanimous hope that they can
become permanent residents.
The dispatch announcing the
visit read . . . “to inspect NCSO
and desires to meet the Mayor,
Seward citizens, Army Com
manding Officer and Paul Ir
win.”
Nothing official was mention
ed, but the captain did remark
that the “Mahopac fellows are
giving him a bad time, wanting
any excuse to put in at Seward,
and he just wondered what it
was all about.”
“I see now,” said the officer.
“This is certainly a beautiful
spot and you people have a won
derful reputation among our
men.”

Council Impatient
* (Continued from Page 1)
One Councilman wondered
“what it would take to move
that Utility Board to action”.
The City Clerk was instructed,
finally to write the Utility
Board expressing the “extreme
displeasure and impatience of
the Council, and asking for im
mediate action or a report of
intentions.
Kielcheski Questioned
A complaint from the Police
Department also brought about
the questioning of Kielcheski
himself concerning the status
of fire escapes required by the
Fire Ordinance. Councilman
Kirkpatrick asked whether own
ers of hotels, rooming houses
and apartments had been order
ed to install steel fire escapes
with platforms, and concern
ing the storage of gasoilne
in unprotected containers in
private yards and buildings.
Kielcheski replied that he did
not know who had gasoline in
yards unless he was told. “If
you know of someone doing it”,
he said “notify me and I will
tell them about it.” When Mrs.
Kirkpatrick asked whether he
makes a personal inspection of
yards and buildings in the down
town area he replied that he did
not.
Owners were notified verbal
ly, he said concerning the fire
escapes “but I’ve been telling
them about that since the war.
It is a Territorial law as well as
a city ordinance. They just don’t
pay any heed to it and won’t un
less forced to do so.”
The ordinance on fire escapes
was given considerable publi-1
city in September, but only j
one owner complied with its
provisions. |

doors and windows and other
openings tight. Clean storage
in vestibules, cover garbage
cans and pick up after the gar
bage collection. Getting rid of
rats is not difficult, but it re
quires work.
“I think that if the citizens
show a willingness to do a good
job of cleaning up that the city
should furnish transportation
to haul junk to the dump. The
dump, however, is not responsi
ble for rats in town. The dump
rats live and eat there, the town
rats live and eat here. Why
should any rat walk a couple
of miles for room and board
when he can find it in practi
cally any house or commercial
building in town?
“Furthermore”, Mr. Deering
says, “I am not in sympathy
with petitions asking the city to
do anything until the house
holders demonstrate their will
ingness to clean up and rat proof
their own homes.”
Circulars from the Depart
ment of Health on the control
of rats, trapping, poisoning and
extermination of the pests, are
being made available to the
people, particularly the housing
area. It was found, that as a city
project, other cities depend
upon cooperation and continuing
work by residents in order to
keep the rats down.
A diplomat is no different
than any other person except
that he has more time to make
up his mind to do the wrong
thing.
