THE ELVES
by Verna Wills
Once upon a time there were
two elves. Their names were Jan
us and Verna.There were a shoe
maker and his wife who were
poor. We went to their ilouse
when they were asleep, and saw
some leather which was cut out
for a pair of shoes. We sat down
and started to make the shoes.
When we were done working we
left the room.
The next night we came back
and saw enough leather for two
pair of shoes. We did not have
many clothes. We sat down and
made the shoes. We laid them on
the table and left the room
Again we went baca to the
shoemaker’s house and found
some leather which somebody
was making into shoes and had
not finished them. We sat down
and worked hard to get the shoes
made.
After we had them done we
left again. The next time we
came we found no leather, but
some presents. We opened them
found nice clothes for us, and
put them on. We went bounding
out the door, warm anu happy.
An Ocean Steamer
Leonard Bren wick
I am a strong ocean steamer
I plow the roar ing ocean. When
the ocean is dashing against the
shore, I am not wrecked. I run
all day on the roaring ocean.
In the morning I run over
the golden sea I carry people
over the sea.
I never get tired. I carry
things that they put on me. I
never have to sleep. My master
takes good care of me, I am
such a strong steamer. I go fast
er than animals. My master
earns lots of money with me.
I cannot go on land. But
some animals cannot gw on the
water. I do not walk on water.
I steam over the roaring ocean.

ALASKA WEEKLY
Mayo,—Charles Brefalt and
Dan Tolmie have opened up a
wonderful lead oil Galena Hill
below Dr. W. E. Thompson’s
group of claims. They have a
nine loot lead, with only one
wall yet reached. The average
across the nine-foot face is over
2u0 ounces of silver per ton. Six
men are employed. They will
get out considerable shipping
ore this winter. They have no
water trouble.
Settlemier and Bermingham
are drifting in good ore at the
100 foot level. They will produce
over 2,000 tons of ore this wint
er for shipment. Thirteen men
are employed. Charles Stone has
I
the contract for delivering the
ore to the main road on Duncan
Creek so the tractors can bring
Jit to Mayo. Settlemier and Ber
I mingharn’s water trouble has
; been greatly diminished lately.
Anderson and Pickering, on
top of Keno Hill, are sacking
| shipping ore on the 500 foot level.
They have been troubled with
bad air, but by the installation
of a fan and with the lower tem
perature their trouble has been
minimized. They will produce
considerable ore this winter.
Rasmusen and McCrimmon
are sacking shipping ore on the
Silver Basin, on Keno Mill. They
are down twenty-five feet in
good ore.
Walsh and Dubois are sack
ing shipping ore on the Caribou
claim. They are doing well.
