Good Homes Keep Workers
Contented and Efficient

The value OF proper homes as means for
keeping workers contented and efficient Is no
longer theory.
It is sound business principle proven
through practice by some of the most successful
manufacturing concerns in America.
The experience OF these concerns has shown
beyond doubt that inadequate housing and
high rents are among the chief causes of labor
discomfort.
that discomfort reduces the efficiency of
workers. lessons their loyalty and leads TO
big labor turnover.
that workers whose families live in comfort

PLAN REGULAR BOAT
 SERVICE FOR TAKU RIVER

Regular boat service between Juneau and the Taku, River coun- try will be an established fact within the next three weeks, when Capt. William A. Strong and A. H. Humphries expect to have their new river launch Naki- ma in service. The Nak ina is now out of the hands of her builders, the Alaska Drydock and manu- featuring Company, and will be towned at once by the Inklin to Tallu Harbor, where her engine will be installed. The 60-horse- power gasoline engine of the steamer Cassiar will be used, as the Cassiar is out of service on account of its extreme draft. The Nakina will draw only eight in- ches of water, and is fitted with universal joints for raising the propeller in shallow water.
 The Nakina is fifty feet long and of thirteen-feet beam and will have accommodations for a dozen passengers and eight tons of freight. Capt. Strong and MT. Humphries say they expect to have their boat in commission the early part of July. Cash Cole is the local agent for the new trans portation company.-Empire
