ALASKA PRODUCTS
AT SEATTLE FAIR
Seattle, June 7. Great prepar
ations are being made for the
Northwest Land Products expo
sition, to be held in the Arena,
October 4 14, when the agricul
tural products of Alaska and the
northwestern states will be dis
played on a scale never before
accomplished in this section.
The Alaska exhibit has been
turned over to the Alaska Bureau
of the Chamber of Commerce.
Secretary J. L. McPherson will
assemble a complete exhibit, not
only of the agricultural products
but of the mineral products of
Alaska land. British Columbia
will also be represented by an
exhibit.
The land products exposition is
expected to meet a need long felt
by the commercial organizations
which have been working for the
agricultural development of this
section. It has received the in
dorsement of the Chamber of
Commerce, the Commercial Club
and the Transportation Club,
each having an equal representa
tion in the executive committee.
It is expected the indorsement
and cooperation of other commer
cial organizations throughout the
state will be obtained and that
the exposition will present com
plete display of the agricultural
products of Washington and con
tiguous states.

The -Spirit of Progress.
The greatest asset a business or an
individual can have is the spirit of
progress. Without it all else is
largely in vain. With it every good
thing it possible. What is the spirit
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
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. Prom an
apothecary shop where only prescrip
tions could be filled, the modern drug
store lias developed into an enormous
institution, carrying different lines,
many of them foreign to the drug
business proper, yet still retaining its
ethical ideas of itself as a public ser
vant and aiming In its development
towards better service and better
values. Such a drug store we have
in Anchorage in Z. J. Loussac’s new
pharmacy store, on Fourth and D.
You are cordially invited to come in
and get acquainted.
