A Christmas Carol
By HENRY wADSw0RrH LONdPELL0w

' HEAR along our street 2 Pass the minstrel throngs. Hark! They play so sweet On their hautboys Christmas
 songs.
 Let us by the fire,
 Ever higher,
 Sing them till the night expire. In December ring Every day the chimes; Loud the glee men sing In the streets their merry rimes, Let us by the fire,
 Ever higher,
 Sing them till the night expire. Shepherds at the grange, Where the babe was born, Sang with many a change Christmas carols until morn.
 Let us by the fire,
 Ever higher,
 Sing them till the night expire. These good peopl" sang Songs devout and sweet. While the rafters rang There they stood with freezing
 feet. Let US by the fire,
 Ever higher,
 Sing them till the night expire. Who by the freside stands Stamps his feet and sings, But he who blows his hands Not 50 gay carol brings.
 Let us by the fire,
 Ever higher,
 Sing them till the night expire. A night school for the accommoda tion of the miners has been opened at Perseverance, near Juneau, in which 25 scholars have enrolled. Miss TheI ma Ninoris will teach.

LEC|SLATOR WILL TRAVEL IN AN
 AERO-SLED

A. A. Allen, better known as Scot. ty," canine expert par excellence, who has been elected a member of Alas, ka's territorial legislature, which will neet at Juneau next March, instead of crossing the t,500 miles of ice and snow between Nome and the territor ial capital by dog team, will use a new mechanical contrivance, known as an autO-sled. It is a combination of the aeroplane, automobile and the Yu nok bobsleigh
 Northern seers, gifted with prophecy forecast the passing of the time-hon- ored malamute dog team, and predict that drummers who have to make win ter trips in the north in a few years will be travelling in de luxe airsleds, much the same as the residents of out side cities travel in automobiles.
 Won Sweepstakes Three Times.
 Allen bred and raced dogs for more than twenty years. Since dog racing became a fad in Alaska, Allen, driving his own teams, or those owned by Mrs. E. c. Darling and himself, has never competed unsuccessfully Three times he carried off the great prize, the All. Alaska Sweepstakes, the dog team classic of the north.
 Living in the north for many years, Allen tenaciously held to the theory

Bobby Boy was sitting Tn his wee brown chair SD close to the great bunch of Christmas holly that he could stretch out his fingers and touch the ] shiny red berries whenever he wanted to make believe that he was far away In tho great forest iii Santa Claus land ho had only to close his eyes and "shiVer his shoulders" as if he were cold, when the warm, quiet room would vanish and he would be walking with Merry Bell in the story.
 By and by" said the sweet voice of Sister Marjorie, who was reading from tho book. so she couldn't shut her eyes and make believe she was in the for est too Bobby ..oy remembered that he must tell Sister Marjorie just what 1t looked like when they reached home.
 By and by they came to a part of the forest where there were tall trees, green and fragrant, just like the trees one sees In the markets before Christ mas.
 Merry Bell clapped her hands
 Hurrah! she cried. We're almost there! See; here are the Christmas tree woods. Pretty soon we'll find the reindeer feeding on the evergreen vines
 They walked softly through the snow paths.
 "'Sh! said Merry Bell; don't fright en them. When they see us the Christ mas reindeer will know us and come running to us to let us kiss them. That's how we know which are the good reindeer that will carry dear olI Santa safely over the world on Christ mas eve. Just thlnk-if reindeer wns bad and tipped poor Santa out""
 Bobby Boy opened his eyes wide.
 "Ho! wouldn't care If tLey did t'D him out. I'd wun wight out fin the snow an help him put all the toys back, an nen maybe he'd give me q wiie''

that the dog team forever would play an important part in the development of Northwestern Alaska. trip to France, however, changed his opinion. Allen sold 430 malamute dogs to the French government and spent several days in the Vosges mountains teaching them. He rode from the coast to the fighting front in an automobile, and while on the way observed a squadron of airplanes engaged in making closer vations. Why not the automobile, the airplane and the Yukon bobsled be combined into an efficient machine? He decided to try it, and spent last winter in Berkeley, Cal, in experiment tai work. The machine which he built was taken to Nome last summer, and this winter Allen and Nate Coombs, also a representative in the territorial legislature and somewhat of dog puncher himself will endea- vor to drive the contraption to Ju- neau.
 Machine Amazes sourdoushs.
 The machine was tried at Nome this fall and 1t created considerable amaze. ment among the sourdoughs. It is said that one of them who was coming to town to cast his vote at the cleo tion, after seeing the device skitter- ing through the atmosphere, changed his mind and his vote for prohibition
 The one disadvantage that Alaskans can see about the machine for travel in inaccessible places is the vast am ount of gasoline that it consumes. They contend that when the fuel sup ply for a dog team runs short they can take a rifle and replenish the supply from the caribou herds or what other game animals happen to be around. But gasoline stations are ex-
