BOOSTER HERE
 FROM ALASKA

It is far cry from sheep ranching on Towles Cosper's domain on the head of the Blue Creek, to driving Uncle Sams mail via. the reindeer route, over the snow covered fields of Alaska, but according to George Perkins, who was in the city yesterday. he hardened to just such a call Five years ago. come September young Per klns came to the Blue Creek region in quest of fortune and adventure. He taught school in winter, ran sheep in summer for three years, when the spell or the north land gripped him, and he joined party bound for Alaska. From Cook Inlet to Anvil Creek, from Con- permine to Hootalinka, he treked with a surveying party, and returns to raise party of settlers for the valley of the Coppermine.
 Perkins says the half has never been told about the undeveloped resources Of Alaska. He predicts that the river valleys will prove valuable for farm Ing, and will attract a large population as soon as the railroad is completed on one occasion a mail carrier was disabled, and Perkins was appointed to take his place, driving an Eskimo s'edSe With a team of reindeer. After visiting his old home in Indiana Per klns will return to Alaska, unless he IS cast for service on the battle fields

Ten years ago this summer a steamer landed at New York Among it's pas sengers was a group of Greek mmi- grants One young fellow passed through Ellis Island with just enough money to get permission to enter the United States.
 With little in worldly goods he had visions of the wealth that awaited in America. This vision has come true and last week Leon Melekov went to Kansas City to spend a part of a half million made in oil holdings near Inde- pendence, Kas.
 Leon reached Independence five years ago by easy stages from the east He had accumulated some money and more experience. An opportunity presented itself to buy a shoe shining stand in that city. Business men urged him at different times to invest in oil leases
 His vision of wealth remained un- dimmed and $500 was invested at the direction of men who knew where the most likely fields were located Luck

 TWO-DAY AIR ROUTE

A Trans Atlantic line of airplanes carrying passengers between New York and London in two days, at about $1 a mile was predicted by G. Holt Thomas in an address before the Aeronautical Society of Great Britain. To complete the rosy fore cast, prophetic films were displayed showing the departure and voyage of a Trans Atlantic airplane and also the dropping of mail pouches at postal stations between London and the north of England.
 MT Thomas, who has had large eX- perience in flying and building air crafts, said airplane mail service could be established commercially.
 A special airplane will enable the business man to leave London in the morning, transact his business in Paris and be home to dinner again" he said. Tt will take him to Bagdad in a day and half or New York in two days"
