THE MINER
The metal mining industry is one that encourages and
supports all others and competes with none.
The amount of mineral development determines the
amount of the miner’s purchases. His work, set in motion,
sustains a legion of other industries and tradesmen.
It has been calculated that each underground miner
affords employment for 10 men above ground! The miner
asks for little. When a miner has money to spend, that
town or district is prosperous.
A miner produces clean wealth!
HAPPY AND CONTENTED CCC LADS
The CCC lads have been in operation for two years.
Some of the 100 odd. looked like scarecrows when Ranger
Bill Sherman signed em on the dotted line. But you should
see them now! Many are 20 pounds heavier and going
strong. Their original clothes are now too small, as after
each day’s toil, they are ravenous.
At the present time there are about 20 at the Quartz
creek camp from which base they are making the country
side ring with axes and saws, building fine bridges and ex
cellent trails and'roads, both much-needed improvements
in the Lower Kenai lake region, and toward Moose Pass.
Fat and sassy and full of zest, in all the 200 there has
never been a serious case of sickness nor an accident. We
trust the record may never be lowered.
The CCC boys are a wonderful asset to this part of Al
aska and we are of the opinion that the CCC is also a gen
uine asset to the husky members which make up its per
sonnel.—Seward Gateway.
The fellow who is always finding fault may be highly
satisfied with himself., but he is a pain in the neck to others.
Think before criticizing. There is always something wrong
with a man. just as there is with a motor, when he knocks
continually.
Too many cities have too many factions. They should
each give and take a little and hit some happy medium where
they can work together towards the up-building of their
city.
