CHEECHAKO WIDOWS
WANT SOURDOUGH
PARTNERS FOR LIFE
Alaska is losing some of its roman
tic appeal to the women of the sta
tes, and the back-to-the-land move
ment, so noticeable during the de
pression, is not so successful as press
reports have indicated. At least this
might be an interpretation placed
on conditions along the coast from
letters received by the Ketchikan
Chronicle.
But romance is not dead! Far be
it from so. And bachelors residing
in this vast Northland may rejoice
that they are being singled out as
the soul-mate for a forlorn woman
pining away in one of sunny Cali
fornia’s many “shelter camps,” or
bravely facing alone the trials at
tendant upon operation of a farm in
the Pacific Northwest.
Three women—widows all—have
written to the Chronicle, letters ip
which they make a frank appeal to
upstanding Alaskans to join them in
holy wedlock for the remainder of
their days. Companionship is the
keynote of these earnest appeals as
none carry even the slightest infer
ence that the man must be wealthy
—a repugnant inference so common
in letter appeals to Alaskans in prev
ious years.
Urbaanites Disdain Country
One of the three women, a resi
dent of Tracyton, Washington, re
veals that eligible men in the cities
lack a fondness for things bucolic
and prefer the urban life. She says,
“The city men down here are not
interested in country life and I
in the north who is lonely and
know there must be some good man
would appreciate a home and a good
woman.”
This woman’s description of her
self is as follows: “I am 55 years
young, very active, practical, a good
manager, home-loving, do not smoke
or drink.. Born in Tacoma, lived in
Seattle 30 years, a retired nurse.
My five acres need a man to take
care of them. I cannot carry on
alone. I want a man who does not
drink, healthy and clean living, am
bitious, good principles more essen
tial than good looks. American
protestant, about 55 years old.”
The farfti, she says, consists of
“five acres ,^f good, rich soil, good
timber, water and small house.”
Tracyton is four miles from Manet
te, Washington, near the Bremerton
navy yards, and an hour’s ride from
Seattle.
No Time For Triflers
“I am greatly in earnest,” she adds,
“and have no time for triflers. If
there is some good man coming
down this fall who can help bright
en up the long, winter days, both
financially and with good company
and enjoy home life, we can have a
good Christmas dinner, home-cook
ed, together.”
Now California’s widows issue
their call. One is 37 years old, the
other 45. Both have “heard there
are many good men in Ketchikan
looking for good wives.”
Residing at present in a camp for
women near Pacific Grove, these
women say that they are used to
their own homes, and would prefer
one with an Alaskan. There being
no alternative, they must remain at
the camp. One has been a hotel
housekeeper since her husband died
the other has been employed in
stores since she became a widow.
Own Homes Preferred
“The men must be decent, because
we are decent women,but to remain

reads. Under a postcript one adds,
