POSTMASTER COVWAV TO
HAVE NEW ASSISTANT
Postmaster Martin Conway this
morning gave out the information
*hai he had accepted, the resignation
of Mr®. Georgia Klndell as his as
sistant, which was tendered to him
about a month ago.
Mr Conway stated that la ac
ceulinr this resignation, he did
so with regret, as Mrs. Kindle! had
always been effecient and accommo
dating, and her long service in the
Skagway office had made her a
mos* valuable assistant.
Miss Agneg Moffatt has accepted
the position made vacant by Mrs.
Kindell's resignation, and she will
take uo the duties of her new po
sition on the first of April.
For more than two years Miss
Moffatt has been a teacher in the
Skagway nublic school where she
has proven herself to be most ef
ficienf. The fact that she has
resided in Skagway for the past
two years should also be a benefit,
as she is familiar with the names
o* the residents here which is
<jT'.ite necessary in the position
which she has accepted.

Stairs V.'aita
Elevators and other conveyances uti
lized ordinarily for handling materials
may be used also in conserving the
strength and increasing the efficiency
of the workpeople. It is nothing less
than stupid to wake tiled employees
climb down several flights of stairs at
the end of a long day's work when
there are elevators available and even
more stupid to make these people
climb up the stairs In the morning,
using unnecessarily a large amount of
energy which might otherwise help to
tide them over the critical fatigue point
during the day. It would be part of
wisdom to Install elevators merely for
use of the workers, even if they were
of no use for handling materials.

mills have installed escalators for this
purpose.—Engineering Magazine.
