BIG WAR FUND DRIVE
TD COMMENCE MARCH II
| •
The growing interest in the coming
Knights of Columbus war fund drive
was greatly in evidence at the meeting
held last night at the fire hall by the
number that turned out, more than
twenty men being in attendance. Many
others, unable to attend, sent in their
regrdts and" expressed their desire to
be enrolled as active members.
It was planned to make a drive for
$750, beginning Monday, March 11,
to continue till Saturday, March 16.
Chairman James Galen appointed;
’Charles M. Rosswog chairman of the'
committee to handle this drive.
The very noticeable success which j
has attended every effort of Mr. Ross
wog for the cause of “the boys” is
ample assurance that the contribu
tions will “go over the top.”
During the course of the meeting,
District Attorney W. A. Munley very
ably and forcibly dwelt upon the noble
work being done by the Y. M. C. A.
and the Knights of Columbus in the
camps and abroad.
In unstinted praise he told how the
"Y. M. C. A. recognizing the good work
of the Knights of Columbus, and in a
•spirit of true patriotism and with the
feeling that today “wre are all~broth
■ers” united in one great cause, has
taken the Knights of Columbus by the
hand to work shoulder to shoulder for
God and country.
Mr. Munley having three sons and
three nephews at the front, very
touchingly expressed the consolation
and relief it is to fathers, mothers and
relatives of those who have gone to
fight our fight, to realize that their
boys are so thoughtfully cared for and
surrounded by every good influence,
that will hear them up in the hour of
trial. Mr. Munley concluded his re
marks by heartly approving the un
dertaking of the Knights of Columbus,
assuring It of success, and by placing
his name as an active member of the
organization.

W. A. Phillips, for three and one- I
half years in charge of a lighthouse f
on Unamak Island, is staying at the I
Alaskan hotel.
§
Mr. Phillips is an old time Alaskan j
and a former resident of Cordova, i
His experiences at his lonely station, f
isolated from the outside world, reads f
like an adventure story. When Phil- I
lips first went to Scotch Cap station
the keeper was Charley Loucks, at one
time keeper at Whiteshead. Loucks
became ill of heart trouble and a dis
tress signal was shown. A fishing
boat, equipped with wireless passed
the word to the cutter Manning. In
time the Manning appeared and sent
a boat ashore containing a doctor
and four sailors. The sea was perfect
ly calm when the boat arrived at the
station. When the doctor and crew
started on the return trip taking the
sick man with them a heavy sea was
running^and within a hundred feet of
shore, the boat swamped drowning |
Loucks, the doctor and two sailors. |
Two men were saved through the hero- |
ism of Rosenberg, a half-breed, w^ho \
is assistant at the lighthouse. He ran I
to the storehouse and obtained a fish 1
net. After securing the shore end, \
he ran out as far as possible in the \
wake of the-exceeding seas and threw j
the net. After four attempts in which }
he almost lost his owm life, twrn of I
the sailors were dragged ashore, j
None of the bodies were recovered j
but about three weeks later a leg
upon w'hich there was a tan shoe wras
w'ashed up on the beach.
The mail reaches these stations
about four times a year. There is no
wireless and the total population of
the island consists of the two light
house crews of three men each.
Trout are to be hand in abundance
in the small streams on the island, and
the caribou are so plentiful that there
is no lack of fresh meat.
Mr. Phillips is on his vacation to
which each lighthouse keeper is en
titled after three years’ service.
