THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE— JUNEAU ALASKA Zrflectiorn oN 1CE That famous flavor found only in Schlicz revives the tired taste, adds cheer to any spread. No wonder Jovers of I béer all over the world call SCHLITZ America’s most distinguished beer. A beer so fine it made a city famous. You don't bave to drink a bitter beer. Schlitz meth- ods of brew- ing control capture just the KISS of the hops, not their harsh bitterness. Taste Schlitz and you'll never want to g0 back to a bitter beer.

Dies in Montreal | (Continued from Page One) land founded a line of steamers on |the Great Lakes. It was related that the elder Beatty at one time refused to join James J. Hill in a syndicate which planned to con- |struct the transcontinental line of | which the son was destined to be- | come head. | Failure as Student Beatty was a failure as an early student and did no make the grade for college until he had been placed | under a private tutor. “He used a ruler on our heads,” Beatty said} in later yea “so we soon learned | |to concentrate.” He attended three | | preparatory institutions before en- tering Toronto University. There he studied law, debated and played football. He was too i light for the 'varsity but captained the “juniors” and made a reputa- tion for smart play which caused him to be consulted frequently by the leaders of the senior team. | Called to the bar in June, 1801, he ! immediately turned to the railroad \system which he had heard his| {tather discuss in the family circle while it still was a “paper” project. Helps Many Poor Boys Beatty was one of the wealthiest ias well as one of the highest sal- {aried men in Canada and his ag- | ministrative and financial talents| bled . to his ‘election to numerous | boards of directors. He served thus | |the Bank of Montreal, The Royal | Trust Company, Postal Telegraph | {and Cable, International Nickel, | Consolidated Mining and Smelting, {and the Minneapolis, St. Paul and | |Bault Ste. Marie Railroad. “He devoted much time and| 'money to organizations concerned with reclamation of wayward boys, especiplly in Montreal, and by his own effort helped many a poor boy to get the schooling and train- I‘ing needed for a fair start in life. |He also was interested in education and at one time had the distinc- |tion of being chancellor simultdne- iously of MeGill University, Mon- | treal, and Queen's University, | Kingston. | He and Admiral Beatty, Eng- world war naval - hero, |strongly resembled each other. The | coincidence extended from physique }nnd facial likenesses to manner- !isms and even to the rakish angle |at which they wore their hats. e " HOSPITAL NOTES Gustaf Erickson and William {Hodges were incoming medical pa- |tients at St. Ann's Hospital yester- |day. John Murphy has been admitted to St. Ann’s Hospital for medical | care. Frank Dennis was discharged yes- terday afternoon from the Govern- ment Hospital.
