APPRECIATION

The column, Fifteen Years Ago. !" which started in last weeks issue Of the Sentinel, will be a regular feature hereafter. Although the first newspaper published in Alaska was the one put out over fifty years ago by pr. s. Hall Young at Wran- gell and the town has never been long without a paper of some sort, there are no files in the Sentinel office previous to fifteen years ago when J. W. Pritohett became owner.
 Sentinel readers who were in Wrangell fifteen years ago read of the happenings of those days with interest and recall with pleasure the men and events of that time, but we realize with sorrow how many Of our fellow citizens have left the road we are still travelling.
 Many of those men carried heavy burdens which would have been frightened immeasurably by a word of appreciation which through thoughtIessness remained unspoken. We can not bring back those who
 
 and had our recreation, but we can brighten the day of our friends and neighbors and business associates who remain. by an occasional word of appreciation for the work they are doing.
 Wrangell is known for its gener- osity to those in sorrow and need. No one is ever left alone when grief and bereavement is his DOT tion, left to suffer from want or is uncared for when sick or disabled. But sometimes we could be more generous in thought and word to the ones who are not bereaved, sick or in want.
 Wrangell is a small town. Our businessmen and town officials are occupying small places in compar- ison with urban centers. Neverthe- less, each man is important to the town. The manner in which he helps keep the wheels of the world turn ing means much to the rest of the town. Each man has his own set of burdens and perpleXities to shoulder and a full amount of anhoyances incident to earning his daily bread. Few of us but are actuated by the sincere desire to do our work well and to serve the community capably. Few of us take the time to speak the word of appreciation We sincerely feel toward our fellow worker, but which, if spoken, would bring glow of pleasure to him.
 After all, we are not so inappre- ciative as we seem; rather, We have not formed the habit of expressing that appreciation, but take each other too much for granted.

DEPRESSION AND THE MARKET

Ninety per cent of everything pro- duced in the United States is con- sumed in the United States. yet on the plea that foreign trade has been isrupted-involving, after all only 10 per cent of our production-busi- ness generally has decreased 25 and 80 per cent.
 Those figures should be pasted above the desk and stared at in amazement. They brand the coun- try as the victim of mob hysteria. At a time when, through the practise of indiyidualism, this country had got a corner on most of the world s

OF Nubby Tweed

A lovely rich, hight brown
determines that the coat we
have had sketched today will
be semi-formal or for sports
wear. It will be- quite good
to wear ON the street and, in
fact, to wear anywhere ti,at
you do not need formal at
tire. It is cut along the same
lines as a dress coat, with the
most beautiful scanning fitting
the hips and waist line. 1t is
of a soft nubby tweed that
somewhat resem bles the
nubbed fabrics that make for
NAL coats. It has a gorgeous
collar of blue-eyed fox that
blends beautifully with the
light brown of the coat, but
does not match exactly. This
collar is in the famous Ha,
waiian lei shape which is so
very flattering to the wearer.
It may be worn either high or
low. The sleeves have no fur
on them and are rather simple,
which is another reason why
this coat is not formal.

they may adopt lighter or
