 ] The customary spring awaken
 ing" for UnalaSka took place this
 week with the arrival of the Fl { Cedro from San Francisco and
 Seattle. The Ell Cedro brought the usual cargo of general mer- chandise for the two leading stores here, together with 7O6 creosoted piles and other materials for the construction of the new Unalaska Dock for the Alaska Commercial Company.
 %t>t
 UnalaSka welcomed this week |'the return of MT. E. K. Pedler, secretary of the Alaska Commer-
 cial Company Mir. Pedler'S first visit here was last year, when
 that company built a new dock at
 Dutch Harbor. MT. Pedler, who
 is well versed on conditions, speaks
 very optimistic for the future and
 expresses as his opinion that the
 country has passed the peak of
 depression and that by early fall
 we will be we'll toward a return of normal prosperity. MT. Ped Ter says coming to Alaska is like vacation to him, that he ex- poets to stay here all season, and may later have Mrs Pedler join him.
 The Fair Poolroom and Lunch Counter has been leased by Cap tain Paul Riggs. Captain Riggs has thoroughly reconditioned the place, modernized 1t, and has made it one of Unalaska's most attractive places to go for an ap- petizing meal or for an enjoyable game of pool. Riggs is an ex- perienced restaurant and pool room man, and his success seems assured.
 R. F. Button, construction engi- neer for the new A. c. Co. dock, slightly injured his left foot this week. A large timber broke loose from the tackle and fell across his instep. At first it was thought tht bones might be broken, but ater it was found to be but a severe bruise. Two days later MT. 1 Button was up and around as usual. l
 There arrived yesterday on the 1 oS Starr a new machinist's mate, 1 MT. Trimmer, who has been as- signed by the Navy Department to he Dutch Harbor Radio station. With his arrival the station now, or the first time in months, has full compliment of men.
