THE ANVIL CHORUS
People living in small towns in Alaska as well as
elsewhere, having little to do in winter and not much to
occupy their minds, are prone to enlarge on trivial mat
ters which occur, making large stories out of small ones
and good stories out of poor ones, then the busy individ
ual broadcasts the news to all who will listen.
Outside newspapers hungry for news take these ex
aggerations for gospel truth with the result great harm
is unwittingly done. Newspapers must be very careful
to separate the wheat from the chaff but in spite of the
greatest care, erronious items will slip in. Thoughtless
ness and the lack of something else to occupy the mind is
generally responsible more than malice. But the harm j
once done is hard to correct. People seem more walling to
believe a juicy morsel of gossip than the more prosiac
truth.
Strange world. For centuries drinking of liquor was
lawful and towns and cities waxed fat therefrom. Over-;
night, man-made laws made making and selling a crime.
Do you think Tom, Dick and Harry are better fellows
because they have been deprived of liquor? We don't.
“Anyone who has watched the development of our cities during
recent years must be impressed by the effective and constructive serv
ice renderd by their Chambers of Commerce. These organizations
have not only promoted the business interests of their communities j
out have justified our confidence in American business men by the
increasing breadth of vision and public spirit which make them see
all the community’s problems as their own, to the solution of which
they will willingly contribute time, effort and their practical point of
'•lew. But this is only part of their service. By uniting their strength
through the Chamber of Commerce of the United States they are ren
rendering the nation a service as gr rat as they rendered their1 local
communities- The National Government needs and appreciates the
aid, counsel and advice which American business as a whole can give, j
The action taken by Chief Justice Taft during his term as President,?
which led to the formation of the National Chamber of Commerce,
has been abundantly justified by experience,

The most ominous threat in that Wrall Street infla

ML RUSHED TO
UTOUGHE HOSPITJI
Suffering from what was sak
to be acute appendicitis, Mis*
Katherine Manscheck, waitress al
the Seward Grill, left last night
on the M. S. Discoverer for the
Latouche hospital.
Accompanying her were Mis,'
Velma Cole and Thomas Jasper
Miss Cole is employed by the Grill
and Mr. Jasper is employed at the
Lander barber shrp.
Capt. Hcinie Berger stated he
expected to return to the Port of
Seward early this afternoon and
wou’d probably continue on to
Portloek, Seldovia and Iliamna
either t~nite or in the morning.
A telegram was to be sent The
Gateway upon the parties arrival
at Latouche. Miss Manschreck ar
rived from Seattle quite recently
but last year had been employed
at Latouche.
A FINE SHOW
Those patrons at the Liberty
theater last night certainly en
joyed a good entertainment. The
play proved an extra good sea
story, or rather sea and land, con
cerning the smuggling of Chinese
into this country. The spontaneous
applause at times showed the
interest of the audience. The two
songs given by the Liberty Thea
ter Quartet were much appre
ciated and showed great Improve
ment in melody.
Nick Kristensen, well known
trapper and guide in the False
Pass country, obtained about 114
red and cross fox the past win
ter. Mr. Kristensen arrived in the
city the other day.
