comfort above accomplishment, for peace in our time above integrity all these shallow self-seeking people are dragging America down to the second-class nation status. For hundred years of hard-work- ing self support America was re- spect d, prosperous, unselfish, without being made fool.

kCOuIluueu IIOIu rage main problem is to divert it to our use.
 What we are trying to say is that a city's prime function is to provide water-for it's industries, sanita- tion, it's people. Kodiak, we are given to understand, doesn't suffer for lack of water as far as these three are concerned
 But it is new industries we have to be concerned about New indus tries shy away from city without a good water supply.
 Whatever it takes to get that water, we should get it.
 Since writing this we have learned that the City Manager and the Council are working on pro- ject to increase the water supply. It is our hope they will follow through and soon to get the needed water to encourage more indus tries here.
 One thing we need is the cold storage plant, and we need it bad. Canadian halibut boats have come into Kodiak since we became Gus  toms port-in fact about Il of them last month. Halibut could be dumped off here in thousands and millions of pounds yearly-think how many dollars we lose during the halibut season with these boats not being tied up here in between tripsl
 Materials have already arrived for the cold storage construction and another barge load is on its way, and with most of the paper work completed or near compile tion, the plant is apparently to be- come realty. June 1, 1862 has been set as the target date. It would be of benefit to all concerned to see this date pushed up to include the 1862 halibut season.
 ITO the delight of taxpayers, the City Council last night set the 1861 real property tax levy at the low rate of Is mills, two mills lower than last year."
 No, this didn't happen in Kodiak. This is quote from the Fairbanks News-Miner. We read that just be- fore we received our tax state ments-there was some sort of small comfort to read where con- sideration is being given to down grading taxes rather than tipping them.

Oddities in the news. In Roches- ter, N. Y., Murdock Philpotts has solved the mystery of why his ra- dio controlled garage door myster- iously opened and closed at about the same time every day. The doors frequency was the same as that used by an airlines flight that passed over his garage regularly in its landing approach .. Tn De- troit, salesman, John Cullen, told police that thieves broke into his parked car and stole 8 football shoes, 5 bowling shoes, and 6 ice skates. All were samples-for the right foot . In Chicago, 2 psy- chologists report that some incom- patible marriages are as strong as the rock of Gibraltar. They told the American Psychiatric Associa- ton that some couples who can't live together happily-also can't live apart. They said these discord- ant marriages are held together because each partner provides the other with an outlet for destructive impulses to deprive and punish :. A woman in London went to court rather than pay the plumber for installing new bathtub. The tub, she said, has bumps in the bottom of 1t. The judge agreed that such a tub does not have an "esthetic quality" and he cut the plumbers bill in half. The name of the woman with the bumpy bottomed tub is: Mrs. Isobel Bottoms.

while, the number had dropped to
100 by 1920, successful competition
- particularly against some of the
established makes - was extremely
difficult.
This is dramatized by the results
of survey taken Of all General
Motors properties in 1920 by top
firm of industrial engineers. The
study recommended that Chevrolet
be liquidated because it "could not
hope to compete in its field" Alfred
P. Sloan, Jr., then GIN vice presi-
dent in charge Of operations and la
ter longtime GIN president and
board chairman, argued strongly
against the recommendation. He
won his point with GIN President
Pierre s. du Pont and Chevrolet
was saved.
Currently, it holds the industry
record for number of cars and
trucks built by a company during
year (2,267, 612 in 1861. It also
holds the industry record for most
passenger cars built during a
year by one company (1,873,598 in
1861 and most trucks (494,573 in
1850.
During its 50-year history, Chew

November sill is American Ed

School invites parents to visit the
school on Thursday, November 8,
1861. The purpose of the visit will
be to see the school in action; to
increase public understanding and
appreciation of education; to ex-
plain the modern school-today's
curriculum, current teaching meth

tai model had been put into produe-
ton, however, Louis Chevrolet left
the company ITO return to his first
love of racing.
The year 1918 began a period of
accelerating popularity for Chevro-
let cars and expansion of plant faci-
lities to accommodate the increas-
ing demand.
During this same year, Durant
merged Chevrolet with the Little
Motor Car Company of Flint and
moved his Detroit operations to the
Flint Wagon Works. A second as
sembly plant was also leased in
New York City in 1918.
Main reason for the increasing
customer demand was the introduce
ton of two new models called the
Baby Grand touring car and the
Royal Mail roadster which replaced
the original 1912 car. These new
models met with strong public ap-
prevail and production jumped to
5,987 units in 1913 and to 1892 in
1915.
Chevrolet became a part of Cen
eral Motors in 1918 and embarked
upon a new era of further growth
and expansion.
By 1920, Chevrolet production had
passed the $4,000 mark, but COM
petition in this perilous new market
was far from easy. Nearly 200 au-
tomobile companies existed when

BASEBALL TEAM
HONORED By RURITANS

Linville Midgette, John A. Wiki
inson High School Coach spoke to
members of the Tri-C Community Ru-
ritan Clubs Little League Baseball
club Wednesday night on the sub
ject Of "The Habit of Winning"
The Ruritans honored the little
|leaguers and their manager, Paul
Dawson, the occasion was the pres
|entation of the championship cup.
It was presented to Team captain,
Danny Daniels and co-captain john
my Thomas by Paul Dawson. Mr..
Dawson pointed out that five of
the boys hit over 800 during the
season and one hit over 500. He
commended the boys for their fine
spirit and showing during the sea-
son and urged them to continue the
stride during, high school days. Il
Mr.. Midgette told the boys that
being a champion meant listening
to your coach and learning all you
can about the game and good
sportsmanship. Always take, and use
all the advantages given to you,
be a team player and think of
others on the team. Mr.. Midgette
stated that ability is not all that
is needed to make a champion. De-
sire and good attitude go a long
way toward winning titles for you.
When boys get the attitude that
they like to win and want to keep
on winning, this is a healthy stu
alton for the entire team, he said.
"Above all, show good Sportsman
ship, said Mr.. Midgette. 1--WE have
too often seen instances Of where
boys will try to use unsportsman-
like methods to try to put a boy
out of the game, but it usually
backfires. Whether winning or los
ing, good sportsmanship means
much to the team and goes toward
winning championship, he said.
Chairman of the nominating
committee, Morgan Sparrow an
nounced the following slate of Of
ficers for the coming year and it
was UNANIMOUSLY adopted by vote
of the members present.
John Fisher Sparrow, president;
Receives o. Smith, vice-president;

L
IApocryphal books out Of the
Bible and published a mutilated
book?"
Answer: The Vatican Coun-
icil Of the Roman Catholic
Church in 1917 confirmed the
canonicity Of the Apocryphal
Books. The Church Of Eng
land in the "Thirty-nine Arti-
,cles" Of 1862 stated that the
church doth read (them) for
5example of life and instruction
lof manners but yet It doth not
iapply them to establish any
doctrine"
Nearly all Christians regard
sthe Books of the Apocrypha as
valuable to read. The early
church received these books as
Sa part Of the Greek version OF
the Old Testament, but they
were not included In the He
brew Bible because they were
excluded by the non-H Hellenistic
Jews from their canon.
