N REMEMBER WHEN

REMEMBER WHEN
 What old timers remember when the Spokane" was the crack ex- v,lrsion ship running to Alaska along in 19O4-19O5? She took freight and was the de luxe liner Of her day. Later she was lengthen- ed by inserting a section amidships and is now running over the same route as the Admiral Rogers"
 WE REMEMBER WHEN
 The Queen, Admiral Liner of to- day was the crack liner in the early sos; when she carried naught but tourist trade to Alaska, making Sit ka once a month and laying over in that port for a full 24 hours; when she carried steam calli0pe on her upper deck which was the delight of old as we'll as young But she was g modern liner alongside of the Alki which in her time was the "crack liner on the Alaska run and she was modern ship alongside of the old Topeka. These two boats did trojan wo~k in bringing men to the cdun- try during the gold stampede. But even they were modern alongside of the Ancon, the sidewheeler which rests it's weary bones on the beach at Loring.
