NO SCHOOL AT IGLOO;
PEOPLE GO ELSEWHERE
Johnny Kakarak of Mary’s Ig
loo is a visitor in town and re
ports that the people of his village
are in good health and have had
a good winter.
The village of about a hundred
people, however, has a crying
need of a school, having about fif
teen children of school age and
would have more if the school
were available, as several families
moved away in order to have a
school for their children.
Mr. Kakarak stated that it is
embarrassing to his people to
have the parents all able to read
and write and nof be able to give
the same privilege to their chil
dren. There has been no school
there fore two years he stated,
when the village moved from Ig
loo to Mary’s Igloo. !
VANCOUVER, B. C., MP)—’Two
drawling “Southerners” from the
Yukon—George and Pat Van Bib
bard—got their first glimpse of
the big city Wednesday.
The were born at Pelly Cross
ing, 200 miles from Whitehorse
and they have “genuine” accents
as rolling as the hills of West Vir
ginia.
The reason, George and Pat ex
plain, is their father left West
Virginia for the Yukon during the
gold rush days, he married a Nn
hanni Indian woman. None of the
family ever headed south again.
George, 25, and Pat, 28, finally
ventured out of the wilderness to
apply for a federal license to op
erate ferries over the Stewart and
Bukon Rivers.
Their ambition: to ride on a
street-car.
