 ACCOUNT ALASKA
TRAVELLERS DECLARE IT MOST WONDERFUL TOUR IN ALL
 THE WORLD

A wonderful "boost" for Alaska is found in column and a half story from Lynn, Mass, Daily Evening Item', being an account of a trip thru the Territory by Mir. and Mrs. Carl L. Hoffman of Lynnfield and sent by them to F. J. Hayes of Cor dova, "Alaska's Goodwill Ambassa- dor". Mr. Hayes in turn sent the clipping to the Gateway, but as the story is too long to run in full, only the opening paragraphs are used:
 Wonders of Alaska were disclos- ed to Mr. and Mrs. Carl L. Hoffman of Salem Street, Lynnfield for the past several weeks tour by train, auto and river steamboat as we'll as ocean liner covering a distance of between 11,000 and 12,OOO miles. They returned this week after a tour in the White Mountains which terminated the wonderful trip" says the Lynn item. MT. Hoffman IS a wealthy leather manufacturer of Lynnfield.
 Glaciers, icebergs, native fishing along the. Yukon and other Alaska streams; visits to gold and copper mines and side trips into the great aud almost unknown regions of the territory which is so much larger than all of the British Isles and the New England States combined. It's vastness is appalling according to the Hoffmans. It is almost a linn it,ess area and person willing to forego a few of the pleasures and conveniences Of present day mod- ern living, can enjoy a trip, the like of which is without compare in the whole world"

THE DAILY LESSON

Washing Stocks is the method employed when one broker arrang- es with another to buy certain stock when he offers it on the Ex- change. The bargain is Ficticious and the effect when not detected is to keep the stock quoted. If the plotters buy and sell the stock to a high figure, the false quotations af- lords the basis for bona fide sales.

FENDER KILLED SELF
 DECLARES CAPTAIN

Whether, as often claimed ani-

 CTS Reindeer Co.,, vessels, does not care to set himself up as an author lty, but he does know that rein der will deliberately kill itself. One reindeer in particular did not want to go aboard. It gave trouble from the first. It fought all the way to the boat. When the vessel finally pulled out to sea, leaving the shore line behind, it seemed to go loco and began putting it's head against the bulWark. The crew aboard did everything possible to try to keep it from injuring itself. It refused to eat or drink. and finally succeeded in breaking it's neck
 HI don't konw what possessed it." said Capt. Baker, to the Empire, "but do know that it was the most determined animal ever heard tell of to dstroy itself"
