NEW YORK, Oct. 2. (IP)—In a re
port on Norwegian fisheries in 1925,
received in the Department of Com
merce, American Consul S. B. Jacob
ston at Oslo, Norway, states that with
out achieving the record production
and expert figures of 1924, Norwegian
fisheries for the year 1925 worked un
der satisfactory conditions and pro
duced favorable results.
The total value of the Norwegian
fisheries catch in 1925 is estimated at
$24,570,000 as against $26,250,000 in
1924. The export value of Norway’s
fish products in 1925, including fresh,
salted, dried cod, herring, mackerel,
and other species amounted to $30,
471.000, about $9,000,000 less than in
1924.
Approximately 60,100,000 codfish
were caught in 1925, as against 69,
900,000 in 1924. Of the total, 23,000,
000 were prepared as roundfish, and
34.000. 000 as klipfish.
The canned goods industry, with
headquarters at Stavanger, suffered
from various causes in 1925. Labor
troubles, low prices and export diffi
culties as a result of the increased
value of the kroner, are factors which
are reflected in the export statistics
for the year.
The value of the exports in 1925,
consisting principally of sardines,

amounted to about $10,290,000. The
United States took the largest quan
tity of Norwegian canned goods ex
ports in 1925, viz., 11,478 tons .follow
ed by Great Britain which took 6,475
tons.

“OLD HOME WEEK AT
THE' LIBERTY TONIGHT
Old Home Week,” the new Para
mount picture, which opens tonight at
the Liberty theatre, offers the rare
1 combination of an exceptionally in
teresting story and a brilliant star.
It was written by George Ade, fam
ous American humorist, and serves as
a starring vehicle for that personable
and popular screen idol, Tommy Meig
han. Tom Geraghty, one of the best
known scenario writers in the busi
nes, wrote the film adaption, and Vic
tor Heerman performed the director
ial honors.
Meighan has a particularly sympa
thetic part in this picture—that of a
likeable young chap who fails to make
a success in New York and returns to
his home town. The fun begins when
the local citizen get the mistaken im
pression that he is the president of a
: big oil company of New York. For a
time Tom is a veritable hero, but his
triumph is short-lived. Even “the
only girl” turns against him when he
is publicly exposed.
From that point the plot develops
several dramatic complications, but
in the end, Tom proves his business
ability, when by a bit of strategy he
turns the tables on a couple of crooks
who try to swindle the townspeople
through a fake oil deal.
Wholesome, humorous and human,
“Old Home Week” is the type of
photoplay that provides ideal enter
tainment. Lila Lee, Larry Wheat,
Charles Dow Clark, Max Figman and
• |
; Charles Sellon are among the prom
i inent players who appear in support
j of Mr. Meighan.

LOOKING AHEAD
Alaskan pipgress of the past forecasts the future greatness of
the Northland, and justifies all Alaskans in holding to their firm
faith in the Territory’s possibilities and worth. By aiming high and
working together—actively and steadily—those having to do with Al
askan progress can accomplish much. “Looking Ahead” to stijl great
er things, and planning and working accordingly, is the one way that
a high purpose can be realized.
The Alaska Railroad—a pioneer system—is gradually and pain
stakingly striding towards a great goal—the greater development of
Alaska; and that the future is bright and promising is attested by
the steady and consistent upward trend of past and present activi
ties. The Alaska Railroad is “Looking Ahead.”
