He said finally it was de- cided that 16 year olds could catch fish as well as 18 year olds, and cited himself as an example of an older person who can catch fish.

And wood will be ready to go to work, fer you, without delay. The construction. industry, from. tree in the forest to carpenter on the job, needs no retooling. It can turn, im- mediately, from the tasks of war to the requirements of peace. At least two million men will be employed building homes and other structures for America. Are your plans ready? THE FORESTS — CONSTANTLY RENEWING THEMSELVES — WILL BE READY. i COLUMBIA LUMBER COMPANY SITKA—JUNEAU—ANCHORAGE A NEW TRANSPORTATION SERVICE for the GASTINEAU CHANNEL AREA We are pleased to announce the inauguration of a new transportation plan * - which is not only in the interest of providing better faxi service for the { “residents of Gastineau Channel, but in the more important interest of sav- ing - on tires, gasoline and wear --- in the furtherance of the war effort.
