The things that build up character
trp hpri Jot is not a distant thing
which has to be sought beyond the
horiton It is a scientific and ever
<r>*sent virtue as immutable and
unalterable as the laws of gravity
or the principles of mathematics^
Who would be foolish enough to go
outside to find gravity or natural
law*
Some of the most beautiful homes
in the world have been created in
Alaska by those who have taken ad
vantage of the ever present oppor
tunities In Pkagway there are
la* ns and flower beds, trees and
shrubs, domestic animals and gar
dens that are not surpassed In any
land The people who own them are
finding contentment Tb? Jot of
possession is intensified from the
fact that the owners have mingled
t*?eir efforts with the forces of na
ture to produce something of value.
i
Xatnre and man work harmoniontly
together Whwi we have grown a
flower mingle something o( our
life with It, and It kwomw a part
of ?8. Its tints And marvelous color*
ing Is Impressed on our consiious
mn there to remain * constant joy
Others are doing these thing* . All |
may do them.
A wont report from the depart
ment of Inland revenue at Ottawa
shows that this year Canadians per
head are drinking more whisky,
more beer and more wine, and con
suming far more tobacco than In the
year immediately before.
The reason for this Is due to tbtj
Targe number of foreigners from
Kurope settling In Canada.
Spuds a foot In circumference are
considered only half grown by Skag- ?
town gardeners. ? Douglas News

Next Saturday, August l?th, will
he the sixteenth anniversary of the
discovery of gold in the Klondyke. j
The day is to be celebrated in Daw-i
son and other parts of the Yukon, j
Speaking of the day, the News says
The seventeenth day of this monthi
Klondyke will be sweet sixteen.!
Daughters born within the borders
of Yukon in Diaeovery year are
now at that adorable. Ineffable age
Klondike is as fair as her fairest
daughter.
Young, graceful and rich in prom-;
ise. Klondike commands the respect
of her own and of the world. It is i
well that Dawson mark Discovery
day with a celebration.
Not only Dawson but the whole
.Northland should appreciate the sig
nificance of Discovery day. The
strike in Klondike was the begin-!
?ling of prosperity In the empire tha ;
stretches North of fifty-four. The
lucky turn of the shovel which
brought up the gold on Bonanza was
the electrifying touch that s'arted !
the Northland whirling on an inter- !
minable career of prosperity. Hun-j
dreds of millions of gold have been
recovered In Yukon and Alaska
since then.
Dawson alone has shipped $150,
oooooo or more In virgin gold. Other
lands have gained prosperity from
the energy displayed here. Klondik
has enjoyed life the last sixteen
years The future of this region
will be greater than the past. In
rallying to preserve the traditions
that hallos- the early days, the
Kiondikers will be affording a mean
of directing attention to the Yukon
of the present and the future.
l.et everyone In Dawson help th ?
Yukon Pioneers make the Discovery
day celebration notable. Not all aie
eligible to Join the Pioneers, but all
are eligible to boost and contribute to
the gaiety and the success of the
day Let everyone shape affairs to
have the big time on Yukon's birth
