BE THANKFUL

We should be thankful to be alive, in 1929, in Hyder, U. s. A. All of us could do a lot worse, both in time and place.
 Thumb the history books, and pick a page at random. What is there that was in the lot of the average man that you would trade for the place of the freeman of today? The old civilizations, magnificent, glittering, were but the thin, transparent crust. Better a self-determining, flivver-driv- ing American than a newer and hauler for Nebuchadnez- ger. Better a stage hand for democracy than gladiator for a Caesar. The glory that was Greece rested on the wearied shoulders of the silver-digging serfs of Laurium.
 Of course, Hyder in 1929 isn't perfect; far from it. No place is, even those far-away places of which we dream as better places than the old camp. But still be thankful, then, to know with Carlyle that Here in this poor, miserable, hampered, despicable Actual, wherein thou even now standest Here or nowhere is thy ideal; work it out therefrom, and working live, believe, be free"
 Because, measured by the yardstick of time, the Actual wherein we now stand is nei- ther poor, nor miserable, nor despicable, our working should be militant and confident. And if the Actual be hampered, it is hampered alone by our own shortcomings, misgivings, indo- lence and lethargy. We should be thankful, then, that the cure for these lies within ourselves.
 If we see sorrow about us and grief, let us be thankful if our heart warns with zeal to assu- age it. If we see wrong, let us be thankful if our spirit grows hot with will to right it. And whatever there is of error or failure, let us be thankful that recognition is the first step to correction.
 And, lastly, if we be thankful that our lot is at least as happy as most, let us be thankful if

The men will be aided by trained reindeer and Idaho sheep dogs, and airplanes will be used to keep in touch with the expedition in it's progress.

Just for Fun

The man who philosophises about love rarely loves.
 It is not generally believed that a liquid eye is essential to boring over a book.
 Now if only someone would appear who was able to put the sense in censors.
 D. J. Mulcare says you may not be able to see your duty, but your neighbor will.
 It is usually better to deserve what you get than to get what you deserve.
 They say around town that George Devine is a clever sub. for Dan Cupid.
 And some of us can be fooled a lot easier than we can fool others.
 Bill: "Ah, what is more tempting than a beautiful girl to behold?"
 Sam,, "A live one to be held" According to Pete. Wilson, a college education never hurt anybody who was willing to learn something afterward.
 Another Americanism: Look a t that darned foreigner!
 What? He's a prince? Let's give him a banquet!"
 Even Santa Claus gets plenty of knocks from a lot of gazabos who think he owes them some thing.
 And then there is the boot legger who walked all the way to the drug store to get some poison to kill the cat!
 "Please buy some Christmas seals, mister"
 Sorry, miss, but I bought my wife one last year and Pm still paying for it.
 Henry: ''Ill give you a hund- red dollars to do my worrying for me-"
 George: "Great! Where's the hundred?"
 Henry: That's your first worry"

Linemen of the Alaska Rail- road were compelled to do a lot of extra work last summer as a result of moose and other big game animals becoming entangled in the telegraph wires along the road. A moose became entangled in the wires recently near Matanuska, where the line runs fairly close to the ground. As a result the linemen were compelled to re- place several hundred feet of wire. None of the missing wire could be found and it is pre-

The body of M. E. Lundgren, an old-timer of the Fairbanks district, was found recently in his cabin on the ridge between Treasure and Our Creeks. A coroner's jury rendered a ver- dict of death by natural causes, although evidence was given indicating a possibility that Lundgren might have died of starvation after a long period of illness. Only the skeleton re- mained, and it is believed that he died late in June or early in July, while he was in bed. Cranberries appeared to have been his only sustenance dur ing his last days. There was no other food of any kind in the cabin.
