NEWLYWEDS ARRIVE
Mr. anti Mrs. C. T. Gardner were
arrivals on the Princess Mary this
morning from Venice, California,
where they were married o,n Christ
mas Day.
Mr. Gardner, who is in the forestry
service here, has made his home in
Ketchikan for many years and is
well known all over the territory,
while his charming bride, who was
the widow of the late Mike Wadding,
superintendent of the Goring Cann
ery for many years, is equally well
known and liked.
Both Mr. and Mrs. Gardner are po
pular with the social set in Ketchi- j
kau and the First City will surely
extend its welcome and congratula-;
tious to this happy couple. They;
will be at home in the Forestry bun-,
galow on Newtown Hill shortly.
An amusing sidelight on the pros
perity which the Cornish tin-mining
industry is at present enjoying may
be found in the fact that over 100
men on one well-known property re
ceived recently the first demand they
have ever had for income tax, state
the “Souffi African Mining Review.”!
It was a new experience, which natur
ally most of them hardly relished.
.
America henceforth must hold no
small section of the battle line of
peace defense.
