The YNpils are enthusiastic war work

Each Of the boys told Of saving

placed in banks but which were now
withdrawn for the purpose Of govern

the enthusiasm with which the in

is safe to assume that these various

ROADHOUSES ON
 BROAD PASS TRAIL

For the benefit of those who may desire to travel to the States or the coast way of the Broad Pass trail, the News takes much pleasure in publishing the following list of roadhouses with the approximate distance between them and few notes regarding trail conditions:
 Nenana to Lignite roadhous 52 miles Lignite to Riley creek miles Riley creek to Jack river 20 miles Jack river to Summit ...........2O miles Broad Pass to Middle Fork
 Chulitna (Sullivans) -.....1S miles Middle Fork to Indian river 34 miles Indian river to Deadhorse 20 miles Deadhorse to Talkeetna .... 20 miles
 The above list has been compiled from information gathered from those who have made the trip to the coast from Nenana and some of whom have returned to Nenana over the Broad Pass trail, and is accurate, the distances given are approximate and are as nearly cor rect as it is possible to obtain
 From the Broad Pass Summit roadhouse) to Sullivan's roadhouse on the Middle Fork of the Chulitna river there are two trails, one of which is on the river ice and is said to be trifle shorted than the other. Owing to the frequent overflows encountered, the river trail is not recommended by travellers. most of whom state that the difference in the distance between the river and land trails is very slight. perhaps a mile at most.
 The Pass itself begins about seven miles from the Jack river roadhouse, gentle slope leading up to it. It is thirteen miles long and about
