HEAVY RUN OF FISH
IS REPORTED FROM
, SOUTHEAST ALASKA
—---—
The run of humpback salmon in the
vicinity of Craig has been so great
for the last few days that the can
neries have been unable to handle
them, says a news item in the Ket
chikan Chronicle. Fish are now be
ing shipped to the east side packers.
The canneries at Waterfall and Kla
wack, which are operating with only
purse seiners, are securing the best
results. So far but few traps have
made any big showing.
The best run of fish is up Cordova
Straits and at Mears Passage, and
they seem to be working north, from
present indications.
Other word from the west coast
pronounces the present run as the
best in the last four years. The fish
have beeu plentiful in that vicinity
for the last few weeks but the present
run which has more than taxed the
capacity of the canneries did not start
until the last few days. Fish are be
ginning to come in from there as
the canneries are unable to handle all
of them on the ground.

| TO COMMAND OUR ATLANTIC FLEET j
Two fleets, equal in strength, one
the Pacific fleet and the other the At
lantic fleet, with the Asiatic fleet as
the third main division of the United
States naval forces, will be the peace
time disposition, according to Secre
tary Daniels.
The Pacific fleet will be under
command of Admiral Hugh Rodman,
the Atlantic under Admiral Henry B.
Wilson, whose portrait is herewith
presented, and the Asiatic under Ad
miral Albert C. Gleaves. Rear Ad
miral W. L. Rodgers, now in com
mand of the Asiatic fleet, will be its
vice admiral.
The secretary announced that the
bureau of operations was studying
and would present a complete plan of
dividing ships of all classes so as to
make the Atlantic and Pacific fleets
of equal strength.
In making the announcement the g
secretary stressed the fact that one L
of the purposes, and possibly the paramount one, for having these two strong
fleets was to encourage and stimulate to the highest degree the spirit of com
petition and keen rivalry between them which will be a big factor in keeping
the \ihole navy up to the top notch point of efficiency.

The times have brought new and trying problems to women—
problems that have multiplied the cares of housekeeping. It has
devolved upon the modern woman to be mistress of many
things. While acting as mother and business manager in the
home, she must give time to many more oroblems than hereto
fore. ~ - • ■>!„
To save time and meet these many demands beino- made
upon her, the modern woman must simplify her household meth
ods. 1 his she can do by cutting out the disagreeable and irk
some wash day, by availing herself of the help the MODERN
LAUNDRY offers. ■ < s 5 41 ’ v .
I he Modern Laundry, with its modern equipment, effi
cient and capable employes, courteous and accommodating man
agement, is well qualified to assume, for womankind in particu
lar, the burden of the family washing. Instead of the old meth
ods of boiling, bleaching and the washboard, the use of strong
soaps, lye and injurious soap powders—all of which tend to de
stroy the fiber, the Modern Laundry employes scientific methods
of sousing rinsing and sterilizing—returning the clothes sweetlv
clean and beautifully finished.
If you seek leisure for more devotion to your children, the do
ing of other things more enjoyable and far more profitable, and
increased participation in the bigger things of life, could anything
be simpler than packing your troubles in a laundry bag and send
ing it to Jones’ Modern Laundry? The cost is small in compari
son to the benefits and satisfaction your receive.
Call up Phone 66, and our man will promptly be at your serv
ice.
