THE STORY OF
FOUR BROTHERS
Once, four brothers lived
in a town about the size of
Nome. One was a grocer,
one a merchant, one a hard
ware dealer and the other
was a farmer.
Talking matters over they
said: “Let us stick together
always, buying from each
other at every opportunity,
and never spending our
money with other people
unless we cannot avoid
doing so.”
As the years went by the
four brothers stuck to that
resolution. The result was
that when one of the bro
thers made a bit of money
all of them felt it pass thru
their hands. In time, it
went around and around
the circle. Eventually the
four brothers got rich, and
because they stuck to their
.resolve, they stayed rich.
Luckily, the four brothers’
children and wives didn't
get the idea that they had
to shop out of their home
town to get anything. They
never got the idea that
something away from home
was always better than
what they had at hand.
They, too, cheerfully ac
cepted the principle of
sticking together.
Nome has a number of
business men, who are bro
thers as far as their busi
ness goes. If they will re
member the story of the
four brothers and teach it
to their children and their
wives, the money that com
es into Nome will stay here
to make all of us prosper
ous. We will have a chance
to pass it around and make
it work for Nome.
To finance its war Italy,
according to authorities,
may have to melt down its
gold plate. Then, of course,
they can fall back upon
Mussolini’s brass.

New York, Dec. 2—“Cal
amity Jane,” in real life
Martha Jane Burke, who is
said to have enlisted as a
scout in Custer’s army, re
ceives recognition in the not
ed women’s section of the
new one-volume Columbia
Encyclopedia. She wore
masculine clothing much of
the time and, the book says
one “trilled with her invit
ed calamity.”
Among sketches of other
women was Victoria Wood
hull, who died in 1927 at
the age of 89. Proprietor
with her sister of “Wood
hull & ClaHin’s Weekly,”
she supported women’s suf
frage and other reforms and
in 1872 was chosen to run
for President by the peo
ple’s party, representing ex
treme radical organizations
The volume also reveals
that Ann Radcliffe, and for
whom Radcliffe college was
named,was the first woman
mystery-story writer. She
is credited with having writ
ten “very popular tales of
mystery and intrigue fre
quently having an appar
ent element of the super
natural.” She was born in
1764 and died in 1823.

Mrs. Chief Ezi, widow of
the chief of the Eklutna In
dian tribe, died recently at
Palmer. Chief Ezi, who
held the title for 50 years,
died in Anchorage last fall
and was buried there with
all the honors of the tribe.
The Indians bought gloves,
blankets, hats, coats and
other articles which were
placed in the small hut over
the grave. Mrs. Chief Ezi
was about 70 years of age,
but was in good health up
to the time of her death.
The hold of the steamer
Tanana smelled like a mid
west farm on the last trip
of the vessel, with 125 head
of cattle consigned to the
Matanuska colonization pro.
ject. All the way north the
cows kept the ship’s master
uneasy as their moos sound
ed like a fog horn, and it
was feared that some mar
ine catastrophe might hap
pen. The outfit remained
over in Anchorage long en
ough to give the residents
a sight of the “White man’s
moose.”
Mrs. Grant Reed of An
chorage, suffered another
stroke recently at her
home. It affected her
speech but not her limbs.
Proof that Alaska is cap
able of supporting a popu
lation of three of four mill-,
ion will be established by
the success that is sure to
attend the federal govern
ment’s farm colonization
project in the Matanuska
valley. The Matanuska pro
ject will be worth its weith
in gold, says Col. LeRoy P.
