Some Printer, But a
Better Road Builder
“Do you know that*! came near being
a printer once.” said Anton Eide, tbe
well known Alaska Road Commission
man, as be stepped into The Times
office to reuew old acquaintanceship.
“How was that?”
“Well, hack in Butte when a boy
I went to work in a little cne-man
office—worked about three weeks and
got so I could set up several stickfuls a
day, when one day the boss, who was
! correcting the matter I had set, sud
j denly said that he thought he could do
I better if I was out of the office, that it
took him twice as loLg to correct my
matter as it would take for him to set
it.and that I was only in the way. any
how. This was a sad blow to my am
bitious, but I got my hand on the door
knob, told the boss what he could do
with his iob and made a safe get
away ”
But Anton grew up, tackled many
things and finally landed with the
Alaska Road Commission, where he
has been for some years, and in his
own bailiwick he is known not only as
a good road builder, but a mighty fine
fellow as well.
