Some Of the most capable men who
spend spring and summer on the
Alaskan islands looking after various
commercial interests earn very large
salaries and live what some folks
might call double lives They are
able during the winter, in San Fran
cisco, New York or Europe, to be Law
ish in expenditure and TO enjoy all
the pleasures Of life, and the fact
that there is little to be done on the
islands but attend strictly to business
enables man to recuperate from the
wearing joys Of civilization and thus
to prolong this dual existence.
