It’s not a load, or a rocky road, But a stall' and easy shoes;
It’s not a pack to bend your back. But something you
OWN and USE.
It’s not a drag or a fretful hag, to burden and spoil your days;
It’s not a fate or an irksome weight, but it helps o’er
Rocky ways.
It’s not a snare in which unaware, you tangle your
Weary feet;
It’s not a band that ties your hand, But freedom that
Makes life sweet.
It’s not a loan that makes you groan. But credit that
Makes you free;
It’s not a bill that makes you ill, It’s SAVINGS for you & me.
It’s not a debt that makes you sweat, and toil for a
Meagre wage;
It’s not a note that gets your goat, But a calm and
Serene old age. —E. B. Johnson.

Lyman S. Peck Of
Pacific Alaska Air
ways Tells Service
(Continued From Page One)
round trips a week the traffic
was also heavier than we ex
pected. It is obvious, how
ever, that the traffic will al
ways be seasonal and on this
account the revenue from pas
sengers and express only will
never be sufficient to support
a dependable service without
a mail contract.
“With regard to the mail
contract situation,” the Air
ways executive continued, “I
believe Government officials
in Washington are now work
ing out plans for air mail ser
vice, and an airport construe
tion program for Alaska and
I am of the opinion that these
plans will be consumated in
the near future. The demand
for air mail between Juneau
and Fairbanks is so great and
the time saving is so tremen
dous that it would hardly
seem likely to me the award
ing of a mail contract, partic
ularly now that the operation
of the service has been prov
en on this route, could be de
ferred much longer. Every in
dividual, every business and
every Federal and Territorial
official in Alaska should be
for air mail. We are most
grateful to the chambers of
commerce and many officials
and individuals who have giv
en their support to this air
mail program. It cannot be
long before the demand for all
year around air mail service
in Alaska will have reached
an extent where the desired
action will be taken.
Scheduled Trips Popular
“Scheduled services which
we operated West of Fair
banks this summer have also
shown good traffic results for
both passengers and express.
If mail could be carried on
these services the residents
of Nome, the lower Yukon
and Kuskokwim would re
ceive scheduled mail service
once a week instead of less
than twice a month under the
present means of transporta
tion.
“Advantages of airplane
transportation for the heavy
freighting mining machinery
and supplies are just becom
ing apparent to some of the
mine operators in Alaska. We
have been transporting heavy
mining machinery and sup
plies successfully to large
mining operators located in
isolated sections of South Am
erican countries for a num
ber of years at large savings
to the mine operators. Freight
ing by plane offers a larger
field to save money for mine
operators in Alaska than in
South America as there are
many more isolated rich gold
bearing properties in Alaska.
“I am not in the least dis
couraged with respect to the
future prospects for our com
pany in Alaska. In fact I am
convinced Alaska is approach
ing a period of prosperity ev
en greater and on a much
more sound basis than the
early gold rush days.”
Mr. Peck said he intended
to remain in Fairbanks until
plans had been worked out
for the operation of the win
ter mail contracts, which he
felt would take a month or so
as is the case every year.
