While the rare blend is partly responsible for this, the patented process, by which it is roasted, is one factor that has made this matchless, uniform fla- vor possible in every pound. Instead of roasting in bulk, Hills Bros. roast only a few pounds at a time. By this process—the de-, gree of roast, the continuous flow of coffee through the roasters, never vary. Hence the name of this proc- ess—Controlled Roasting. Grocers everywhere sell Hills Bros. Coffee.

Let us during the next year set ourselves to the laudable .task of lending a friendly ‘personal, and | business hand to our own people; keeping our business dollars rolling as close to our own district as possible, employing the maximum |of Alaskan people in stores, shops |and on our public works. We should individually and col- | lectively join in a concerted move- ment to discourage the loose talk- er who strikes a vielous blow at his home and Territory by indulg- ing in careless remarks about any of our activities.
