ANCHORAGE FAIR
D. H. WILLIAMS, MANAGER WEST
ERN FAIR ASSOCIATION, EX
TENDS INVITATION
IS PRESENT CHAMBER LUNCH
Urges Necessity of Seward Being
Represented With Exhibits at
Annual Fair at Anchorage
The keynote of D. H. Williams' ad
dress before the local Chamber of
Commerce yesterday at noon, was to
extend an invitation to the citizens
of Seward to attend the Western
Alaska Second Annual Fair, at An
chorage, September 14 to 19 inclusive.
That the fair stands for the good and
advancement of all the Territory and
that it is as much Seward’s fair as
it is Anchorage. He urged the neces
sity of Seward having a good repre
sentation of exhibits, for much favor
able publicity and advertising is de
rived therefrom.
Thus far Mr. Williams has been as
sured of a mineral exhibit from Nuka
Bay, Moose Pass, and other proper
ties in this region, a miniature fish
exhibit from the Seward hatchery,
which will be prepared by H. E. Ells
worth, a member of the Territorial
Fish Commission and Supt. Starr; and
a display of oil paintings from Capt.
and Mrs. O. A. Johansen’s collection.
He impressed the members of the
chamber with the importance of hav

—the point of a Parker & Duofold

Tasmanian Iridium which costs
over three times as / / much as the
iridium used in / / ordinary

why the Parker If Duofold is
called the 25- fl year point.
That’s why it /fj is the cheapest
pen on earth IS at $7 — because its
usefulness is everlasting.

ing an agriculutural exhibit for after
viewing the products raised in this
vicinity he was considerably impress
ed, stating he had never seen better
looking vegetables.
Lauds Large Attendance
In opening his adderss Mr. Williams
said he felt that he first should con
gratulate the chamber on the large
attendance and the marked enthusi
asm. He then spok6 of the splendid
facilities! at Seward as a base for sea
planes, saying in this respect that
Seward excelled Anchorage, but that
his town had a very good landing
field, but owing to the big tides on
Cook Inlet, Anchorage was more or
less handicapped on the water.
Committees Carrying on Work
As president of the Anchorage body
he related that this year practically
all of the work that comes up before
the chamber is accomplished by the
various standing committees, which
following the conclusion of activities
on any particular subject or project
report back to the chamber. This
system has thus far worked out very
gratifying he said.
Describes Fair Work
Mr. Williams stated this year’s fair
budget provided the sum of $7,500 to
be expended in preparing the build
ings for the fair, in the construction
of additional quarters and the regular
business of operation. He described
in detail the various activities and
exhibits which will take place and
the many innovations made. Refer
ing back to the publicity the exhibits
will receive he informed the gather
ing that Merl La Voy, Fox Film pho
tographer, who is making Seward his
headquarters while engaged on many
months filming in the Territory, pro
poses to visit the fair and shoot a
number of the exhibits, displays and
other interesting things connected
with the exhibition.
An opera will be produced in Lon
don using 12 mechahical pianos, with
loud speakers to convey the voices of
the singers who will remain out of
sight of the audience.
