The uppermost event we here
at the Mirror are celebrating this
week is the 15th anniversary of
j, the Kodiak Mirror as a newspaper,
f Begun March 8, 1941, the Mirror
f has brought war and peacetime
■ news to its readers and has chang
1 ed hands several times in that
k period. We became so engrossed.,
in getting out me current, tnae,
we almost overlooked the date.
The former editor and publishers,
Bill and Lillian Uamme, sent us an
anniversary cake, and we commem
orated the event in true annivers
ary style. Incidentally, it was Bill’s
birthday on the 7th.
The Lamme’s had no more than
settled to the routine, if there is
such a thing as a routine, of pub
lishing a weekly paper, when war
broke. We have a copy on file of
Kodiak’s one and only Extra, print
ed-bythem when thfe United States
entered the war. *

City Manager Charlie Truitt,
took over that office just last
month, and assumed his duties
under a baptism of fire, with the
water situation such as it is. Pump
ing water from the other lakes
has been a losing proposition,
since the pump used can’t cope
with the regular pumps bringing
water to consumers. The main res
ervoir has been losing 1% inches
of water a day, and it doesn't take
much of a mathematician to figure
out where this will end up. We will
take the cue from Ketchikan,
I where residents are allowed only
a bucket a day.
' Incidentally, it’s hard to swallow L'
pills these days without water,
and almost as hard with the yel
low tinged fluid. The answer is:
Stay Healthy!

Lewis J. (Joe) Beaty and his
partner Walter Reukauf, cattlemen
at Narrow Cape, same in for a
writeup in the quarterly paper,
Cutter Standard, published by the
Cutter Laboratories. Kodiak was
described as a stockman’s para
dise. The mild climate here is one
reason, the abundance of natural
feed, the several kinds of superior
grass, rich in protein, that abounds 9
here, even the seaweed and beach N
rye are main sources of food that i
make healthy cattle, according to I
the article. He stated also that he I
has had few losses—four last year !J
due to the bear. This was the first
in eight years.
Beaty said in the article: “How
many places can you name that
are loaded with deer, rabbits, phar
migan, ducks, geese and fish?
Where can you catch fish 10 feet
from tjhe house all summer long?”
They’re all here he says. “This is
the one place that the grass could
