NAVIGATION AIDS ARE
 PLACED ALASKA WATERS

No funds for new aids to navi- gation in Alaska were allotted for the current fiscal year excepting for car rying on the work of constructing the new light and fog signal station at Cape Spencer. It was not practica- ble therefore, to install many new aids to the westward during the sum- mer," said Capt. w C. Dibrell, super intendent of lighthouses, who return ed to Ketchikan recently after cover ing the coast as far to the westward as Unalaska Joining the Lighthouse tendar Cedar at the Skumagin Islands, he spent about three weeks on board and left the vessel at Anchorage, for the return to Ketchikan Exception ally good weather conditions were en- cOuntered during the whole trip, the superintendent says, and good prog ress was made with the work per formed by the Cedar.
 New Aids Established.
 In the westward three new blin- ker lights were established at points on shore, two new gas buoys and one small oil light were put up. "The foregoing includes a large gas and whistling buoy and a blinker light to mark the entrance to Resurrection Bay, upon which is located Seward, the terminus of the government rail- road gas and bell buoy at Kodiak; a blinker at Chignik; blinker on the north end of Unga Island; and an oil light at Uyak, Kodiak Island" said the superintendent.
 Two new buoys werealso establish ed, one at Cordova and one at Tutka Bay, Cook Inlet
 On the return trip Captain Dibrell inspected the construction work in progress on the new station at Cape Spencer. Good progress" he said, is being made with the work, but on account of the approaching season oi uHfavorable weather conditions ii Witt soon be necessary to susponI op- "iatlIns until next spring. Col.io~ta bic camp quarters have ben rrcvid- cd for :ae personnel of the wockicg force. Preliminary operations will be completed before closing work, and the erection of the main building will commence as early as possible in the spring.
 Modern Station at Spencer
 Tt is expected that this important light and fog signal station will be placed in commission before the end of next summer.
 Telling of the Cape Spencer sta tion the superintendent said, 'The equipment will be modern in every re- spect. An incandescent oil vapor lamp will be- installed in a revolving flash ling lens, producing a flashing white light of about 10000 candlepower. The fog signal will consist of a dia- phone operated by compressed air, which is considered one of the most efficient types of sound fog signals
 Tn addition to the foregoing it is the intention to install radio fog signal, through the aid of which vessels equipped with radio direc- ton finders may take bearings on the station in thick weather from a con- distance. This station when placed in commission will be of very great assistance to mariners approaching the inside waters of Southeastern All aska from the westward"

The Comeback Spirit

From Hartford T ifnes
 Something of the spirit of old Put, who. receiving news of the engage ments at Concord Bridge and Lexing ton. left his plough iii the furrow and hastened off to fight the British at Bunker Hill, is revealed in the cour- ageoas attitude of the Connecticut community which takes it's name from this gallant old soldier and tavern keeper. Crushed by dishonesty of its leading citizen, and suffering heavy f. nancal loss as result of his pecula- tions, Putnam proposes to reveal that a community, like man. may be down. but never out.
 It's one commercial banking institu- tion closed and bankrupt, two new banks have appeared where but one grew before. So the city is again pos sessed of the means of carrying on trade and industry. Now it proposes to show the world that misfortnnes have not crushed it's spirit nor sapped it's courage.
 There are to be comeback days. . set for the early part of next month. These yill celebrate the fact that Put nam not only has weathered its most recent crisis, but that new industries have been secured to take the places of some that were lost. while mills that have been idle much of the time in recent months are running again.
 The outside world Is to know that 1t takes more than blow or a succession of them to stihe Putnam Good for the pncky community. which shakes of disaster as a gladiator shakes of a blow and rushes anew into the en- counter of life. That's the spirit that makes individuals winners. l. is the spirit which will make a community urosnaro1le
