FOURTH AVE., SKAGWAY
WOMEN'S WORK
IS SURPRISING
The fallowing are excerps taken
from a letter just received by .Mrs.
L. S. Keller, president of the Skag
way Woman's auxiliary, from Mary.
B. Hart, special agent woman's work
at the A.-Y.-P. E.:
It would do your heart good to
hear the outsiders (as they go from
booth to booth In section "C"") mar
vel and exclaim over the exhibits of
our public schools and woman's" work
which occupy the entire north side
of the Alaskan building.
As soon as Nome and Fairbanks
exhibits arrive and can be installed
a Jury of awards will be appointed
by Commissioner McBride to pass
upon the exhibit of schools and wo
man's work and the fortunate win
ners will then be announced.
How many members of your Auxil
iary will be able to be present August
6th which has been designated as
"Auxiliary Day?" Say to your local
editor that there is not another collec
tion of exhibits in the whole Alaska
building that excites as much sur
prise as those embraced in section
?C."
The gold display, the canneries.!
the forestry, etc.. are all represented
but they are already anticipated by
the public, who have long heard of
Alaska's resources, but when they
come to the progressive exhibits
showing our home and social life,
educational advantages, etc.. doing
away with the pre-conceived idea of
our crudeness and almost semi-bar
barism (an idea long fostered bv
writers of "yellow fiction" and un
truthful historians) their amazement
and sudden change of opinion is cer
tainly comforting to at least one'
"sour dough" who has spent many
lonesome days (organizing, collecting
and installing) in the earnest effort
to bring about this much desired
and most gratifying result.
