ALASKA SHIP CAPTAINS
HI F#n H E SIM
“I'm feeling glorious.”
So reports Capt. John A. O’Brien,
Nestor of Seattle’s Bering Sea route,
in a postcard from a distant port to
Secretary W. T. Isted, of the Ship
master’s Association, says the Seat
tle Times. As commander of the
United States Shipping Board's 8,800
ton steel steamship Westerly, built
by the Ames plant, Capt. O’Brien is
doing his bit for Uncle Sam. His hair
is iron gray and his face is ruddy from
the winds and suns of many years on
the heaving deep, but he still has the
nerves of steel that long ago placed
him among the heroes of the North
Pacific.
Joy at being able to serve Uncle
Sam in the great war is written in
every word of the postcard message
which was received today.
“Passed Fred Warner at sea,” says
Capt. O’Brien, referring to another
iron man of Seattle’s North Pacific
fleets. Capt. Warner is master of the
8,800 ton steamship West Point,
launched for the shipping board by
the Duthie plant.
McMullen Heard From
A letter from Capt. C. B. McMul
len, master of the steel steamship
Westchester, built for the shipping
board, also was received at the head
quarters of the Shipmasters’ Associa
tion. McMullen for years com
manded the “big little” steamship
Dora on the westward run from Sew
ard, the most northerly winter mail
route in the .world. After that experi
ence, the prospect of war zone waters
holds no terrors for him. He was
sailing from Portland when he wrote,
bound for the port of “Somewhere.”
He reports that Capt. Ames, another
oldtime Alaska master, is steaming
down the coast in command of the
steamship Westlake, built for the
shipping board by the Skinner &
Eddy plant. The Westlake put into
Portland and went to sea one day
ahead of the Westchester.
This gave the Portland waterfront
a chance to bet on which vessel will
reach the Panama canal first. Capt.
McMullen reports that “considerable
cash” has been wagered.
“Our Alaska masters have respond
ed nobly to the country’s call,” said
Isted this morning. “With Seattle
built ships and Seattle masters ar
riving constantly in their ports, the
people ‘over there’ are going to be
impressed with our brand of patriot
ism in Elliott Bay.”

The seven school children or Ken
necott gave an entertainment at Recre
ation hall for the purpose of raising
funds to buy wool to knit socks for
the soldiers. The program was ar
ranged by the principal, Miss Elsie
Ware, and each number was enthusias
tically applauded. The ages of the
pupils range from seven to thirteen
years and they are commended for
the creditable manner in which they
acquitted themselves. The entertain
ment concluded with a playlet by
| Miss Rothe and Mr. Morris. The
j treasury of the Red Cross was in
creased $115 through the efforts of
the school children.

Daniel Schoeber is instructed to re

board.
