APPROVES IF
Ealifornian Praises Sk gway !
As Sum idm* Resort !
? i xtsms ;
S, A. Crawford, an orange grower of
Riverside, Cal., who spent several
weeks in Skagway last summer in
search of health, is an enthusiastic ad
mirer of Skagway's claims as a sum
mer resort, and he is a thorough be
liever in the advisability of advertising
them to the world.
In a letter written jointly to W* H.
Case, H. H. Draper and Dr. J, A.
Baughman, with whom Mr. Crawford
was on a hunting trip, speaking about
the movement of the citizons of this
town to advert ise it as a summer resort,
he says:
"It was with pleasure that I heard
the town had awakened to a few of its
possibilities as s tourists' resort. You
will find it the best investment the
town has ever made. 1 live in a tourist
country, and to see the money that is
spent here yearly would amaze you.
* * * It has cost money to reach
this point, but we are now reaping our
harvest, just as you will surely reap
yours later if you don't get weak
kneed. You have but to let the travel
ing people know what you have to of
fer them.
?'I am not afraid to say that I have
enlightened more pe >ple since my re
turn about the beauties, etc., of an
Alaskan trip than was ever Known
here before. I just tell them 'you
know how sick and run-down I was.
Now look at me! I weigh more than
I ever did in -my life, and am still
gaining."'
Mr. Crawfonl says many people will
come to Alaska from southern Califor
nia next summer. He will come again
himself.
