THEN AND NOW
It was not so many years ago when the facetious
slogan “Strike up the band, here comes the sailor” pre
saged the appearance of an irresponsible individual j
against whom most places of decorous amusement were
closed.
Today the uniform of Jack Tar is the open sesame j
to any precinct which he choses to grace with his pre-1
sence. Instead of what were to a great extent idlers and |
wasters drawn from the lower walks of life, Uncle!
Sam’s bluejackets represent one of the finest type of!
American citizenry, with the result that his appearance,
instead of conjuring up visions of roystering, riotous
strife, now is the signal for throwing open the doors ofj
public places and homes and bidding him enter. Instead
of being a refuge for human failures the navy is the
agency through which American youth is afforded edu->
catidnal advantages and an outlet for the expression of
those energies that are the heritage of healthy, happy
youth. He brings an edifying dignity to the sea arm of
national defense worthy of emulation by his less for
tunate landsman compeer.
It is thus Seward welcomes him and the opportuni
ty is afforded for sustaining our traditional reputation
for hospitality.
Therefore we would revise the time-honored apho
rism thus: “Strike up the band, here are Uncle Sam’s
finest young gentlemen.”
Seven ocean- going vessels, three trains and planes,
the depot and dock black with people and automobiles;
and the streets of the city dotted by pedestrians, made
a great impression yesterday to not only the large num
ber of visitors but to the home-folks, as well. It won’t
be long now!
Sourdough Bill says he will soon be a fit subject
for Momingside if he doesn’t lay off trying to keep
up with aviation records.
II REAL SON OF Ml!
VISITS HERE: IS ORE OF
ALASKA'S HOLED GDIS
A native son of Juneau but
prouder still that he is the son of
one of the founders of Juneau,
W. J. Harris, for 24 years one of
Southeast Alaska’s most noted of
guides, is in Seward awaiting to
join the big game hunting party
from Virginia, aboard the Yacht
“Westward,” due here today from !
the south, which will be in the ■
i
Alaska field 50 days under the j
auspices of the Kodiak Guides
Association, Charles Madsen, field .
manager,
Mr. Harris arrived from Juneau ,
on the SS Admiral Watson.
Up to this period Mr. Harris’s1
activities have been confined en- i
tirely to S E Alaska and west as '
far as St. Elias. He had the pleas- 1
ure a year ago last spring to have
members of this party in the field, j
He has previously been on special
field work- for the Smithsonian
Institute and the American Mu
seum of Natural History.
In between spring and fall Mr.
Harris conducts a sign painting !
business in Juneau and has gain
ed considerable prestige as an :
artist, depicting Alaska scenes
and wild game in oil.

and has a wonderful family of 1
eight children.
Mrs. M. S. Banbury, widow of
the late and esteemed local cit
izen, returned yesterday from
Pasadena where Mr. Banbury was j
laid to rest.
JUST ANOTHER ERROR
Just another error was made in
another item in this issue in j
cvhich it was said that Mr. Cud
dy and Mr. Sullivan from Valdez
iiad left today for Anchorage ac
companying Mr Sisson. The first
:wo named g^ttlemen were seen
on the main avenue at noon so
they couldn^t possibly have left.
Rica Neimi, Aileeen Neimi, Ellen j
3rarde, all of Douglas, arrived on
;he Aleutian and are enroute to
Fanana where they will teach.
