The nails should be filed flat

ALASKA GLACIER SEA FOOD COMPANY WILL CAN
 SHRIMP IN WRANGELL

c. D. Osten of the Alaska Glacier Sea Food Company of Petersburg arrived in Wrangell Wednesday evening with a floating shrimp can- nery and tied up at the city float near Shakes Island.
 When seen by the Sentinel re- porter MT. Osten stated that he would begin canning the first of next week. Mir. Osten will use two boats, the Americ and the Sunland, for fishing out of Wrangell and bring a third boat here soon. MT. Osten states that his company has done considerable prospecting in this vicinity and he has no doubt that there is an abundant supply of shrimp in this locality. Fresh shrimp will be packed in five-pound cans. MT. Osten states that the AL aska Glacier Sea Food Company has come to Wrangell with the in- tention of maintaining a permanent branch here.

AN OLD MAIDS ESSAY ON MEN

Men are what women marry They have two feet, two hands and sometimes two shirts; but never more than one collar or one idea at a time.
 Like Turkish cigarettes. men are all made of the same material husbands, bachelors, and widowers the only difference being that some are little better disguised than others.
 An eligible bachelor is a mass of obstinacy entirely surrounded by suspicion.
 Making a husband out of a man is one of the highest plastic arts known to civilization. It requires science, sculpture, common sense, faith, hope and charity-especially charity.
 It is a psychological marvel that a soft, fluffy. tender, violet-scented sweet little thing like woman should enjoy kissing a big, awk- ward, stubby-chinned. tobacco-and bayrum-scented thing like a man.
 If you flatter them, it frightens them to death, and if you don't you. bore them to death. If you permit a man to make love to you, he gets tired of you in the end; if you don't he gets tired of you in the begin ming. If you join in his gayeties and approve of his smoking, he swears you are driving him to the devil. and if you don't approve O. his smoking and urge him to give up his gayeties, he likewise vows you are driving him to the devil.
 If you wear gay colors, anf rouge, and a startling hat. he hesi tates to take you out; and if vol wear a little brown toque and tailor-made, he takes you out and stares all the evening at woman in gay colors, rouge and startling hat.
 If you are a clinging vine type he doubts whether you have brain, and if you are a modern, ad. vanced and independent woman. ht doubts whether you have a heart.
 If you are silly he longs for bright mate. If you are populal with other men. he is jealous; ana if you are not, he hesitates to marry a wallflower.

The Fourth

Another Fourth of July celebra- tion in Wrangell has passed into history.
 In the forenoon patriotic exer cises were held on the court house lawn and were largely attended. Dr. Robert Joseph Diven was the principal speaker. Dr. Diyen's ad dress was splendid and was one that could not fail to appeal to thinking people.
 The entire afternoon was given up to sports. The committee on sports undertook to make this years program somewhat different from those of former years, and in this they were highly successful.
 One of the biggest hits of the day was the Elks' Kilties Band com posed of H. D. Kyle, J. K. Nevill, DiSDy SOCuTdue, d. 1. Hdiflu, I1di- ry Mccormack, Harry Coulter and H. Hallen.
 The days sports were so much of a circus that a clown was necessary to give the finishing touch to the carnival of fun. M. L. Burke, as the clown, was clumsy, awkward, ungainly, and in short just about as fine an example of buffoonery as any circus could have produced.
 The various street and aquatic sports were witnessed by large crowds. One of the most interest ing contests was a cannery tender race from the wharf around Five Mile Island and return. There were three entries: the Mary Maloney, the Irene Barnes, and the Halcyon. The race was won by the Halcyon.
 The Legion dance in the Star land on the evening of the Fourth was one of the most largely attend ed events of the year and lasted we'll into the night.
