THE MUSEUM
One of tlic most progressive civic stops taken in Ketchi
kan in years has been made by the local igloo of the Pio
neers. With the support of the city council, the Pioneers
have set out in earnest to give Ketchikan a museum.
Of course, we need not delude ourselves into thinking
that the Pioneers will be able—alone and unaided—to estab
lish a first rate museum overnight. But in the course of
time, their efforts should succeed in accomplishing the pur
poses they have in mind. However, they will need the co
operation of all the other organizations in the community.
And they should have it.
The museum can he made both valuable and attractive.
It can be made of inestimable value to the residents of the
community, to the thousands and thousands of tourists who
go through here every year, and to posterity.
The Pioneers arc to he congratulated for their energy
and foresight in making the proposal for a museum. We
have no doubt at all but that, with proper co-operation and
support, the venture will be practical and successful.—The
Ketchikan Chronicle.
DID YOU EVER STOP TO THINK?
By Edson R. Waite, Shawnee, Oklahoma
Edwin S. Friendly, Chairman of the Bureau of Adver
tising. A.N.P.A.. and business manager of the New York
Sun, says:
“The difference between good business and bad business
is the speed at which money travels from hand to hand.
“When business is poor, money moves slowly. It is apt
to he put into a bank and kept there or pushed away into a
teapot or a vase on the living room shelf.
"When business is good, money passes quickly from hand
to hand and. strange as it may seem, people are apt to save
more when they spend more, because, business being good,
they make more.
"If I spend a dollar this morning and the person who
gets it spends it again with another person who spends it the
third time, there lias been three dollars’ worth of business
done by these operations. If the person with whom I spend
the dollar originally lets it stop there, only one dollar’s
worth of business has been done.
"For this reason, advertising is often called the motive

Plans Under Way
Entertain Rogers
And Post At Nome
Plans for the welcoming of Will
Rogers, noted screen star and news
paper itemist, and Pilot Wiley Post
arc being formulated by a tentative
'committee including members of
. the Chamber of Commerce work
ing in conjunction with the City of
Nome officials.
Mayor Swartz wired Post and
Rogers recently inviting them to
come to Nome, and today he receiv
ed an answer from Will Rogers
stating that they would be pleased
to accept the offer.
Various things arc in mind for
some type of entertainment for the
noted visitors. Wiley Post has twice
flown around the world, both tim
es establishing a record, and both
times passing through Nome. The
first time lie landed at Solomon and
the second time he flew over the
landing field at Nome and kept
going, later being unfortunate en
ough to land at Flat, Alaska, where 1
the plane nosed over. With the aid
of the Pacific Alaska Airways pilot j
Post continued his flight and set;
an even faster record than the first
flight.
More definite details concerning
an entertainment for the visitors
will be announced later—as soon as
the committee agrees on the several
suggestions made.
