Appreciation For A Worthy Cause
Dear Bill, and staff;
All too often most of us are
prone to be a bit on the critical
side over a wide scope of issues,
usually giving vent to our feelings
without effort toward constructive
suggestions or without making per
sonal action to help the situation
or problem in question. Too often
we fail to give credit where it is
due, and do not let those around
us know we appreciate what they
do.
We have all, at one time or an
other, sent donations and gifts to
worthy causes and to persons
whom we will never see nor meet,
because we felt compelled to help
in some manner.
At this time of year when it is

seasonable to be more acutely
mindful of the wonderful blessings
and opportunities we have for
which to be grateful, I’d like to
take this means of expressing my
appreciation for the effort the Ko
diak Mirror and Alf Madsen, and
the many citizens of Kodiak have
made in expressing their concern
for a fellow citizen. It is hearten
ing to know that the people in Ko
diak are concerned about their
friend and neighbor, Bennie Ben
son.
Your truly,
A Fellow Citizen
Letter to the Editor
Dear Bill:
I certainly was glad to have had
the opportunity to meet you at Ko
diak. You were a friend in need.
The use of the typewriter that
morning was really helpful, and
1 appreciated having access to it.
From the enclosed page from
the Washington Evening Star of
November 17, you will note that
the Communists are causing fish
ing troubles elsewhere. It occurred
to me that you might want to post
this or show some of the boys that
we are not alone in our problems.
With best wishes, I am
Sincerely yours,
Bob Bartlett
E. L. Bartlett
Ed. Note: The clipping from the
Washington Evening Star showed
a part of some 130 Russian and
Polish fishing boats seen moving
into the English Chanel chasing
seasonal swarms of herring. Offi
cials said the fleet is the largest
concentration of trawlers they have
ever seen in the channel.

HOW TO TRAVEL IN LUXURY WITHOUT REALLY FLYING
The exciting new ’63 Chevrolet has captured the silence and effort
less ease of jet flight and translated it to highway travel. Every new
Chevrolet, whether it's a luxury Impala, a low-priced Bel Air or a
Biscayne, now has sdf-adjusting brakes, a Delcotron generator to
extend battery life, and the ingenious new flush-and-dry system.
A test drive of a few miles will amaze you. This '63 Chevrolet is
a quality automobile, built to travel with the very best. When
you’re driving a Chevrolet, you don’t take a back seat to anyone!
