FINE WORK BY
LOCAL ARTIST
A fine display of small
landscape scenes is on view at
the Alaska Soda Fountain, the
work of Mr. Frank Harrow, of
this town.
Mr. Harrow has the bar
ber chair in the Fountain and
spends all his spare time creat
ing these canvases. While you
wait Mr. Harrow will transform
any spare piece of cardboard in
to a beautiful Alaska scene with
a few deft strokes of the brush
and the astonishing part is the
amount of detail he can put into
a picture in the space of a few*
minutes.
This work is indeed well
worth examining.
