MORE CONTRACTS
On Thursday afternoon the Alas
kan Engineering commission will j
award the contract for 100,000 cross
ties to be used in the construction of
a section of line along the north :
shore of Turnagain Arm, between |
Kern Creek and Ship Creek June
tion; 150,000 cross ties for the Man
tanuska branch line and the main
line from Matanuska Junction north
ward to Willow creek; also 2,000
standard piling in lengths 25 to 4 0
feet.
Native spruce and hemlock timber
for making cross ties and piling can
be secured from certain sections of
the Chugach national forest re
serve, and no bids will be received
for less than 50,000 ties or 500 pil
ing. It is estimated that this equip
ment will cost the commission over
$100,000. Some maliciously dis- ,
posed parties have circulated the re-;
| port that these contracts are not to
be let and nothing could be further ;
from the truth. The Commission Is
going ahead with its work and there
I will be no cessation in activities
along the line until the railroad has
tapped the Matanuska coal fields.
The Spirit of Progress.
The greatest asset a business or an
individual can have is the spirit of
progress. Without it all else is
largelj in vain. With it every good
tiling is possible. What is the spirit
I of progress? It is the desire to
! know what constitutes true success
and the willingness to take patient
steps which lead to it; the desire to
j correct errors and tendencies which
retard progress, the willingness to
receive new ideas and act upon
them- the enthusiasm to strive for
excellence for its own sake.
With this spirit the growth of a
business is inevitable. It is as nat
ural as for a tree to grow.
The drug business particularly is
one where to keep up with the spirit
of progress is to live. From an
apothecary shop where only prescrip
j tion- could be filled, the modern drug
| store lias developed into an enormous j
j institution, carrying different lines,
1 many of them foreign to the drug
business proper, yet still retaining its
ethical ideas of itself as a public ser
vaii* and aiming in its development
towards better service and better
values. Such a drug store we have
in .5 nchorage in Z. J. Loussac’s new
pharmacy store, on Fourth and D.
You are cordially invited to come in
j and get acquainted.
