OVER TRAIL, 600 MILES

Alaska is nd eed progressing! Comes now crew of five men for a mining company far down in the in- terior country, who, with their boss, R. T. Hirsh, will fly to the camp from Fairbanks instead of following the past custom of reaching their work Seward Saturday from the States on the S.S. Northwestern- and departed yesterday morning for the Interior. MT. Hirsh, mining engineer, came out to the coast to meet the party and al- so to attend to other business details.
 Mir. Hirsh, with Capt. l.. B. Wall bridge, visitor in Seward last June, are in charge of operations for the New York Alaska Gold Dredging Com pany, on Bear creek, a, tributary of the, Kuskokwim river, The men have been Investigating the field for the past four years and the last year the company sent in to them a large dredge which was moved over onto the property the past winter. The dredge was shipped in on the steamer, Santa Anna last June. In reaching the coast Mr. Hirsh came out over the 500 mile snow trail in just fifteen days. The trail was perfect he said, but he doubts very much if it is that way now, for a period of balmy has prevailed over the region during the past two weeks.
 Among the party arriving in town from the south was w. A. Peterson, a Union Construction Company engin- eer who will be employed as dredge- master this season. On an average about ten men have been employed on the ground for the past two years. In moving the dredge over from the Kuskokwim, MT. Hirsh stated 60 h. p. ten ton Best Tractor, snow special, was employed satisfactorily. The boat will be set up at once and operations should begin at an early date. ~ 4 -
 Speaking of the district, MT. Hirsh said he had seen no pick and shovel men in the district, but he understood that many years ago the Russians at tempted to work the ground but gave it up as a bad job. The ground is all thawed out, and without any mach inery it is practically impossible to handle any dirt, owing to the seepage.

HOTEL CLERKS
CALL FOR HELP

With two big conventions in town
last week that worked them over
time, room clerks in downtown hotels
were crying for help Wednesday to
assist them in rooming all of the visit
ors who are pouring into San Antonio
for the Fiesta.
Each incoming train brings literally
hordes Of them and they all have to
have place to stay. Many is the
name on the hotel registers and many
is the time the clerk has yelled:
Front. show this man to room two
by-two." Reservations for rooms have
been made weeks ahead.
Old timers say that the rush of
visitors to the city is not unlike the
rush made into the Cherokee Strit
when it was opened. The hotel men
agree that it must be so.

Better Service to

Business grows big by public de-

the demand. There is no super-control

The only monopoly possible is based

That sort of monopoly is benefit

This is the new game of Spanish
baseball as played by the Spanish
classes of Main Avenue High school.
The pitcher, the teacher, throws the
ball (word) TO a student who must
define it, or conjugate it properly.
If the student defines or conjugates
the word correctly he gets a hit and
goes to first base and then on as each
word is given him. If he misses the
word three times he is out. The class
chooses sides for the play and at the
end of the game the highest score wins.

HATRED Of

Now 1t has been learned why little

reason being that little Willie has

probably dates back way before the

known Roman baths.
One Of the big items that brought
about this bath complex was that in
the old days a torture inflicting per-.

AS. TO INITIATIVE.
But will not the growth Of the
great corporation shut off individual
initiative? Where is young man go
ing to- turn?
Is it better for a man to take en-
ployment with another, or go into
business for, himself? The question
is legitimate when asked in full
knowledge of two facts that there are
more doors into private business to-
day than ever before and that EN-
ployment has come to compete with
private business as a career for any
man.
Men are constantly passing from
one field into the other. In any large
business may be found men who have
been in business for themselves and
have given it up. There may also be
found men who hope some day to give
up employment and set up for them.
selves.
WHY MEN ARE EMPLOYEES
The motives of those who leave
business for employment are various.
Some find themselves unable to bear.
the strain. They are fitted to serve.
but not also to direct the services Of
others, or even adapt their own serv.
ice to the changing needs Of the time.
So theyJ take employment where
they can serve untler direction, Ger.
tain of an income. and are free to
cultivate the other interests of their
minds.
Some accept employment because
they see in extensive modern business
the widest and most inviting outlet
for their powers. What would take
them lifetime TO build. they find
ready at hand, built by another, and
needing their service.
That is the appeal of modern bust
ness to the young man; he can begin
with an organization whose crude
experimental days are over and
which stands able to do the thing it
was organized to do, aud greater
things, because increased experienced
leads to greater and more successful
experiment.
In private business one enters au
atmosphere e competition, whereas in
large employment one enters an at
mosphere of cooperation. A great
modern industry progresses by the
unified thought and energy of many
men. Theirs is cooperation based
not on emotional agreement nor per.
sonal preference, but on common in.
terest in the job to be done.
SALARIES EXCEED PROFITS.
And the opportunities to acquire
position and competence are greater
in employment than in private bust
ness, because there are more places
to be filled and the rewards arc
larger. Salaries in this country are
greater than profits. Those who feel
that business is jealous of the en-.
ploye's progress are behind the
times.
Business can live only as it deyel-
ops within its corps of employees the
talent and the force which win carry
the business along. Business lives

"Their bathroom, or wash hut as
they called it, was as alright as logs

With the fire raked out the family as

over the stones produced steam; steam
