LOG OF WRECKER FAVORITE. The. Great Lakes. Towing Co. has issued as a souvenir the wrecker Favorite's log for the season of 1908. This log was published in the Marine Review of January 7, Ship Building issue, but those who are the recipients of the souvenir will be glad to pre- serve it. It is put together. in the most attractive manner. The souvenir is illustrated, not with half-tones, but with platinum photographs from orig- inal negatives. There are 15 of these . photographs illustrating various parts of the ship. The photographs of wrecking equipment and of the ma- chinery are. especially good. The souvenir closes with a_ facsimile let- ter from Capt, W.-W. Smith, marine superintendent of the Pittsburg Steamship Co., in which he commends the work of the Favorite highly. The concluding picture is an_ excellent portrait of Capt. W..W. Smith. AROUND THE GREAT LAKES. Mr, Godfrey Morgan has been ap- pointed manager of the Kellogg ele- vators to succeed. Mr. George E.
