A contract for construction of
a new Cordova Community Hos
pital has been signed and prelim
inary work for the building is
scheduled to go under way this
fall, according to word received
this week by Dr. C. Earl Al
brecht, commissioner of health.
He said the contract was
awarded to C. R. Foss, Inc., of

Hill-Burton funds made available
by Congress in the amount of
$231,792.14 over a two-year period
were approved for the Cordova
Hospital, Dr. Albrecht said, and
$154,518 of the cost was allocat
ed from monies appropriated by
the 1953 territorial legislature.
Residents of Cordova, together
with the Baptist Church, subscrib
ed the remaining $82,524.14 of
the amount.

munity funds. Other members of
the board are: Dr. R. B. Coffin,

Thousands
ask US why "It’s the Water”
Ir3!
This question first was asked
prior to the turn of the century, when
the rare flavor of Olympia Beer could
be enjoyed only by the few pioneers
living within a day's wagon-ride
of Olympia, Washington. The answer
to the question then holds true today... The delightful, unvarying flavor and purity of
Olympia Beer cannot be obtained without the
naturally perfect brewing water from our own
artesian wells. Olympia’s skilled Master Brewers
attempted, in years gone by, to duplicate the
quality of Olympia Beer at other locations, using
other waters. The results never satisfactorily
approached the unchanging quality and refreshing
flavor that have come to be the hallmarks of Olympia.
That is why we confine the brewing of Olympia Beer
to our one plant at the site of our artesian wells,
and why so many who appreciate a superb,
sparkling beer agree...
