FIRST CANNERY
 STARTS HERE
Yesterday Afternoon the First Fish Were Canned on Douglas
 Island

The whistle of tho Keogan can nery, which is located in the old Geo. E. James saw mill in Douglas, blew yesterday aftornon for Che first time to summon lts employees to their work
 At Che sound Of the whistle a party of overalicd women took their places in Che fish house Of the can- nery to help can Che Kaiser and also boost the town Of Douglas along commercial lines.
 Although Che plant was not in the best of working order, Manager Koegan started in and pretty soon a stream Of fish began coming from the fish house to the cannery proper, whore it was put in the cans, the cans cooked and laqucred and made ready for the market.
 Tho plant is not large one as canuerics go nowadays, but it is @ beginning and it is one Of the best things that ever started in Douglas, giving employment as it does to women, children and men who are local residents.
 IT the canncry proves success, no doubt it will be enlarged for next season and in time Douglas will lave a cannery as large as any In AlaGka.
