T GETS RESISTS
CANDLE COMMERCIAL CLUB
By Ann Ayer
February 22, 1937.
Now that the holidays are ov
er and Eajster just around the cor
ner, our thoughts just naturally
turn to spring gardening. Crisp
lettuce and Swiss chard, tender
radishes and green onions chuck
full of precious vitamines. “Hap
py Days are Here Again”. We will
soon be our old “Sylph” again.
But truly now, is there anything
more fascinating than a nice little
garden? In the dark winter morn
ings, nothing short of a fire beli
will get me out of bed early. But
in the spring it’s different.
The beautiful sunshine filter
ing thru the windows, Robin red
breast singing in the willow bush,
the whole world rejoicing be
cause it is spring. Isn’t it great to
be alive? It sets me thinking of
the oild home place at the edge
of town—'the earthly smell of
freshly plowed ground, meadow
larks trilling their happy song,
wild roses making a picture of
pink and green along the old rail
fence. And fragrance! Did you
ever smell anything so sweet?
My! I’m getting clear off the
track. After all, you folks are in
terested in news of Candle.
Mrs. Bess Chamberlain return
ed to her home in Deering Fri
day with pilot Cross of the Wien
Alaska Airlines. Mrs. Andy Nord
lind was also a passenger.
Mr. and Mrs. Thos. Roust, left
several weeks ago with Pilot
Maurice King of the Ferguson
Airways, for Fairbanks enroute
to Seattle. They plan to return
to Candle in the spring.
Mr. and Mrs. A1 Forsgren and
Mr. Lundberg left Friday the 12th
with Pilot King also enroute to
Seattle. Mr. Forsgren is associat
ed with the Forsgren Dredging
Co., on the Inmachuk river.
Pilot Cross of the Wien Airlin
es made an emergency trip to
Kotzebue Feb. 18th. with Mrs.
Roy Summers who was quite ill.
Word has just been received that
Mrs. Summers passed away at
the Kotzebue hospital. No detail
ed information has been receiv
ed at this time. Mrs. Summers, it
will be remember was Mary
I.’a' ei i.f Teller before her mar
riage.
Mr. and Mrs. Chapman are the
proud parents of a baby girl born
February 4th. Mrs. Chapman re
turned home from Kotzebue sev
eral days ago with pilot King of
the Ferguson Airways. The proud
father is our radio operator
“Chappie". It is reported the fath
er is doing nicely.
The condition of Louis Opaug,
an old timer in Candle, remains
about the same. He is still con
fined to his bed. Plans are be
ing made to remove him to the
hospital at Sitka if his condition
is not improved by the arrival
of the first boat.
Fred Ayer has been going ar
ound with a long face since his
wife returned from Kotzebue:
and his three pet Siberians have
been sleeping in their kennels.
Not that it’s exactly strange for
dogs to sleeip in their kennels,
but it seems during Mrs. Ayer’s
absence, Fred kept the dogs in
the living room most of the time.
No, he wasn’t lonely but the
weather was too stormy for the
poor dogs. Then one night one of
the noble dogs in a playfui at
titude chewed up Mrs. Ayer’s
prize rabbit slippers—hence the
reason for Fred's lengthy coun
tenance.
All Candle is bridge-conscious
these days. Up until a few weeks
ago, it was “bow down to Cul
bertson” but after a champion
ship game between Candle’s crack
playeTs, Mrs. Andy Nordlldnd and
Mr. Glen Smythe using Culbert
son’s bidding system and Kot
zebue’s best, Mrs. Vernon and
Henry Xaviar, using Danish bid
