A LETTER ON ALASKA

Juneau. Alaska,
 am going to tell you something about Alaska. will tell you about Juneau. which has one of the best buildings in Alaska. 1t Is the Gold stein Emporium and it Is made of concrete. We have fine mansion. in which the governor lives. The schoolhouse is nice one. We have library. swimming tank and Q city hall. The city hall is built of concrete. We have lots of automo- piles and motorclcles and we have three theatres.
 Juneau has an Indian village. The houses are mostly unpainted, but those that are painted have gaudy colors. There are lots of dogs. some are ugly and some are handsome. The village has a church. a school and a hospital. and is built on the tide flats.
 The Indian men work in the can. neries in the winter. but in the sum- mer they fish and hunt, The women make baskets and moccasins. and in they summer they pick berries. The summers here are beautiful as a rule; the days start very early and really we have no night.
 This winter was cold, but as a rule the winters are nice. In win ter we see the northen lights. The sky is darker and more beautiful than in the States.
 We have lots of flowers. Some o6 them are roses. daisies. bluebells buttercups and bleeding hearts
 We have lots of fish Some of them are salmon, cod. halibut and herring. which is used for bait to catch the codfish
 We have a grand road called the Basin" road It leads to a large place called "The Silver Bow Bas in." The road clings to the noun tain. There is a stream running through the basin which is called Gold Creek" It is very rough and the water splashes over great rocks on it's way to Gastineau Channel Gold Creek got its name from the early prospectors, who first found gold in 1t.
 We also have many vegetables. Some of them are lettuce. peas, onions. beans. carrots. potatoes tur. nips. and cabbage.
 We have deer, bear. foxes. seals, moose, caribou, marten, mink and porcupines in the woods.
 The scenery about Juneau is beau. tiful. We have great glaciers. You I can see big icebergs floating around in the channel There is snow on the mountains all the year round There are houses on the mountain side and when there is snow on the ground and the sun comes out. it Is beautiful.
 On nice days the mountains are beautiful. You can see pretty white clouds in the sky. and from the school room you can see the boats coming in. In stormy weather you can see whitecaps on the water.
 In winter the children coast and skate and in summer they play like anyone else.
