army coup on the richest and
second largest of the 5000 Indo-
nesian islands. Col. Malaudin

Advertising

Kodiak's history has to be utiliz- ed! This. you will agree, consists of finding the records and artifacts which represent that history, of displaying this material when found, and of advertising.
 Today let's talk about advertis. ing. It has already been stated that we must find and display this history before we may effectively advertise it. This, to certain ex- tent is true. Let me point out, how ever, that already much of the ma terial has been found and is ready for display. Such display awaits only the location of a museum which is assured within few months, and the completion and placing of signs on historic sites. Therefore why not start advertis- ing now?
 Progressive, quantity adv cruising is out of our class that is, IF we have to foot the whole bill. There is way we can get around this, a way which will give Alaska and Kodiak quantity advertising indeed, has already done so. The way is AVA.

 It is estimated the Boy Scouts in the United States are calling on 35,0O0, 900 homes across the nation today. They will hang en duvF- knobs a Liberty Bell placard bear ing the message, Heed youths call. Vote as you think. but vote November 6. 1856. Use your free. dom to vote"
 Scouting has long had participat- ing citizenship based on good char

 The job needs to be done. Should the time ever come when Americans lose their interest in the right to vote, and neglect to make the small effort voting re- quires, the right to vote would gradually disappear. Self govern ment endures only when the peo- pie support it vigorously. The act of voting is in itself an expression of good citizenship and apprecia tion of democratic privileges. Whc

Though there is no occasion as yet for alarm, the prevailing cold weather and the snow point to a possible long seige of wintry weather. Under these conditicrs the supply of water in the reser- yoir will not prove adequate.
 ! By a few simple precautions, such as the wrapping of exposed pipes, fixing of dripping water faucets, boarding up under houses,

these and other like precautions will be great help in maintaining a water supply.
 Running faucets are of course, taboo.
 One running faucet doesn't seem like much, but when hundreds of them are running at the same time, thousands of gallons of water are being wasted. The reservoir will soon be depleted.

 Airmail has become one of the few profitable government opera tions. The Post Office Department, heavy loser in most of it's opera tions, received airmail revenue of over SAP million in fiscal 1855 but allocated only $122 million, in- cluding payments to air carriers. Profit was therefore $20 million.
 One of the new jet transport planes now under construction will be able to carry almost as many passengers across the Atlantic in one year as the new passenger liner, the SS United States. Milton W.
