MAY ESTABLISH
MARINE DOCTOR
AT SEWARD PORT
’: fVj X fjf; 5 ' “ 5
DEL. SUTHERLAND INFORMS LO
CAL CHAMBER OF PROGRESS
NATIONAL CAPITAL.
By reason of the numerous fishing
and merchant vessels that' make port
at Seward, as well as the hundred
children at the Jesse Lee Home who
must at times require medical treat
ment, some efforts should be made
regarding the establishment of a ma
rine doctor and hospital at Seward,
is the text of a recent letter for
warded by Dan Sutherland, Alaska’s
Delegate to Congress, to the U. S.
Public Health Service department, at
Washington, D. C.
A copy of the letter was received
in thelast mail from Dele. Suther
land, by the local chamber, in re
sponse to a movement, inaugurated
last fall, for the establishment otf a
government marine hospital at this
port.
The Delegate also informed the lo
cal body that the representatives of
.the Fishing Vessel Owners Associa
tion of Seattle called upon him at
Washington recently, urging him to
do what he could toward obtaining
a marine doctor for the port of Se
ward, where fishermen are often
forced to call for treatment for in
juries or who become ill on the fish
ing grounds.
“I found,” the letter continued, “that
the Public Health Service was willing
•to establish the office of marine doc
tor at Seward and to pay a small
monthly allowance, for a starter, with j
the possibility of a good sized in- ;
•crease the year following.
■“It would seem to me that a hos- j
■pital is quite necessary at Seward,
but I doubt if the Public Health Ser
vice would attempt to establish on.e
independently but would rather look
to the railroad commission or Bu
reau of Education to do so, and then
they furnish the marine doctor.”
GAME SLAUGHTER
IS HALTED BY !
NEWSPAPERS
ZULULAND WILD LIFE FACES EX
TINCTION UNTIL PUBLICITY
STARTS
WASHINGTON, D. C., Jan. 20. (JP)
—American sportsmen who cast their
bread on waters for the wild animal
life in Zululand find them being re
turned a thousandfold.
Several months ago the wild animals
of Zululand appealed to the sportsmen |
of the world to save them from wan
ton butcheries which F. Vaughn Kir
by, game warden at Nagoma, warned
would soon exterminate them. The
game warden’s appeal was widely pub
lished in America and the sportsmen
responded in such measure that the
governor general of Zululand, the min
ister of lands and other officials in
South Africa, impressed with the ex
pression of sentiment, have given their
aid.
Now game warden Kirby has advised
the American Nature Association to
which he addressed his first appeal,
that he believes the danger of whole
sale slaughter and extinction has been
averted. Thousands of clippings from
American newspapers, forwarded to
Zululand, are being used, the Game !
Warden writes, in a campaign of edu- j
cation to conserve the animal wild life 1
in the country..
“We thank the newspapers of the i
United States,” said Charles Lathrop ;
Pack of the Nature Association, in
making the announcement. “This re
sponse by the American people is one
of the most remarkable we have ever
known. It was the helping hand of
one group of nature lovers to another
across the seas.”
In an acknowledgement to Ameri
can sportsmen, addressed through the
Nature Association, Gafhe Warden
Kirby wrote:
“The common ground on which we
stand together as friends is that of
mutual love of the beautiful, helpless
creatures of the wild, our love for na
ture and her beauties. I particularly
ask the following named to accept my
grateful thanks: Winthrop Packard
of the Massachusetts Audubon Socie
ty; George, F. Veith, Norfolk Va., Mr.
and Mrs. Sales of Colorado, and a
long list of others.

,
If you were the only person in town that traded with
mail order concerns—it would hurt some—but it wouldn't paralyze the
prosperity of the community.
The greatest injury would be in the influence your out
of-town-trading exerted over others. Other people might follow in your
foot-steps of foreign trading and that following would prove detrimental to
home business development and betterment of public welfare.
Set a good example. Be a home buyer. Take pride in
your community. Feel that money spent here at home is playing an
important part in building up the town. Know that it buys the goods
you want and goes towards some public good. That it helps increase the
efficiency of schools—puts down better street crossings—erects better
libraries—brightens the town’s lights—makes the parks more attractive—pays
for better police protection, etc.
Instead of fostering the mail order habit—fight it openly.
Teach the truth of home trading. Preach home patronage. Show mail
order buyers the error of their ways—and go out of your way to do it.
Local merchants handle the highest grade merchan
dise. They cany advertised brands. They sell at a proper
price—makes of goods that bear the stamp of honest manufacturers.
They deal open-handedly. They don’t cover up questionable quality
with private labels. They offer you the latest and most dependable
lines—in all lines of merchandise. Their stores are conveniently at hand. You
can reach them in a few short seconds—over the phone—or step right into their
places of business—give or leave your order—and have the goods delivered
straight to your home—all in a few minutes time.
They willingly accommodate you. They take particular
pains to give you just what you want right when you want it. You
don’t have to buy in big quantities to save freight or express charges. You can
spend less at a time—and save considerable sums in cash, to say nothing of the
great saving of time and trouble.
Advocate those advantages. Do mail order traders a
good turn by turning them away from away-from-home buying—liven
up local business, and by so doing speed the town along the road of progress.
Spend your money where it will in turn be spent for
local improvements instead of sending it away to fatten business and
better conditions of other communities. Support the community that supports you.
