ALASKA FISHERIES
Under date of June 23rd.Secre
tary Herbert Hoover, of the de
partment of Commerce, telegra
phed Governor Scot C. Bone as
follows:
The regulations under the new
Alakaa fisheries legislation are be
ing issued to day. These regula
tions are tentative in character
applicable to this season as there
has been a very short time for
preparation and for certain sec
tions with no experience to guide
us. Mr.O’Malley is proceeding to
Alaska to be present during the
entire season and will confer
with you on my behalf as to the
membership of an advisory com.
mittee to be appointed by you
of at least five who will make it
their business to follow the effect j
of the regulations during the
present season and be prepared
to advise upon such alterations
as may develop from experience
to be necessary. 1 not only wish
to secure the advice of this body
but after the season is over will
later in the year. If needed, hold
hearings on any modifications
that may be proposed by th ? in
dustry or others interested.
It is my earnest desire that one
subject should be kept upermost
in mind in the administration
and that is a sufficient escape
of all species to the spawning
grounds to provide for the rnani
tenance and restoration of the
fisheries.
We have no other object in regu
lation and I hope shall have full
cooperation of all who are inter
'sted in solving the problem up
<>n a fair and permanent bassis.
Yuo can't skin the Copper River
Draying Company.

BALL GAME
The ball game was a very one
sided affair up to the fifth ining
with the score standing at 8—2
in favour of Kennecott. But that
was owing to our team being
made up of business men who
were up all night fixing lor the
fourth they were naturaly just a
little tired. During the game we
had a number of heavey showrs
making it hard werk for both
teams. Although they had the bet
ter of us at first, we finally beat
them at the finish, 16 — 11.

THE FOURTH
The fourth of July Celedration
was very well managed consider
ing the rain, it was the best year
that McCarthy has had for many
a long time, the fun enjoyed was
greatly appreciated by visitors
and town folks alike.
In fact every event of the day
was not lacaing competitors, afl
the sports, ball game and the
j the dane concluding the days
I fun was a huge success, there
jwete .no many visitors in town
| that it would have taken a whole
page on tne sheet justfor their
names.
“DONT FORGET”
Do you remember, the time, you
were new at the job and somebo
dy made it unpleasnt for you be
cause you were unfamiliar with
your job, and with everything you
hab to do and your strange sur
roundings made you feel ;.s tho
you were nothing but an out c ist
»n this world and evey body seems
as though they were against
you, whether at work or in pla\.
Take that experience to yourself
right now, and if there is some
one that you can lend a helping
hand to or a Hind word, about
the work being done, give it will
ingly with a pleseant smile, so
that by doing it yeu will give
that what you did not get.
The man who can never find a
kind word of praise or engour
Hgement to give anybody, but is
always ready to find fault as
soon as a mistake is made -that
man will never have a fine line
of riendship.
WIN THE DAY
He lost the game,
No matter for that
He kept hia temper,
He swung hia hat
And cheered the winera
A better way
Than to loose hia temper
And win the day.
HA HA HA_!
The “leaps and bounds" by
which automobiles are said to be
increasing are nothing to the leap
ing and bounding done by the
pedestrians in getting outef the
way. Ex.
Contemporaries are advocating
a bobbed-hair platform as the
means of getting votes, but we
put out money on a bald head
ticket,
Boost ohe Commercial Club.
“SUMMER"
With the corning of summer ther '
is the usual number of inquiries f*
guides into *he White River game sc
tion, with ontf^exception This year *n
interest in the subject is being evien */
by the railroad company. The ac»-v»:»
taken by the manager, F. A. H»n=r>
would seem to prove that there will *>
an effort made to attract more parti* *
to this section instead of calmly let:i g
the bulk of the trophy hunte s go t<>
the Kenai and other game fields T ie
White River and other local game sec
tions considered among the best in the
Country.
HE IS LAZY
Is ther such a thing as being
lazy?. We often hear this expres
sion, that more condemning and
crael, than it being any sign of
true jubgement or even a kind
heart.
When one of us, stumbles on
something that brings him fame
and fortune, commonly known
as success, we seldom hear that
individual branded as lazy.
No, hs is supposed to be a wor*
ker, hustler and the “Success”,
of the day.
So, lets give the so called lazy
brother a chance, give him some
thing to do for which he is adap
ted, and he will be lazy no more.
There is room and succes for
all in this world, if will only ad
mit it
WHEN WINTER COMES
What will we do next Winter?.
In McCarthy, like in any other
place inhabited by wide a vake
folks we plan and figure out, a
program for onrsnmrr.pr -mv^
inputs, but in McCartl .\ oi; n w
other places, we forget to do nr>\
hig of the kind to aliviate our
cold winter months.
