HYDER, ALASKA, Nov. 29, 1922
! COME ON IN
THE WATER’S FINE.
A member of the Hyder Com
I mercial Association Committee who
have charge of building the First
street planked highway had a pec
uliar experience the other nay. He
was called down by a man who had
not been approached for a contrib
ution and who wanted to help in
this improvement. The man, by
the way, does not live on “The
Piling’’ nut he recognises the fact
that the planking of First street
will greatly benefit the Lindeborg
i addition.
Perchance there are others like
this broad-minded citizen who have
not been approached by the com
mittee. If such there be, they are
invited to make known to H. II.
Howard, secretary of the Associat
ion, their willingness to help make
Hyder what it aught to be.
This improvement is not a sect
ional affair. It will mean a saving
in many ways to everyone in Hyder
! no .natter in which section of the
town he may be dotniciled. The
way is open for everyone to help in
| the building, and no one need feel
slighted if he is not personally so- :
licited. It must be remembered
that the Association committee
has a "powerful lotta work” on its
hands, and in building for the fut
ure generations of Hyder may be
! forgiven its few slight imperfections
(of management. I

If it hadn't appeared in the sober
and reliable Scientific American we
should have been doubtful about its
truth, but so appearing, what could
one do but believe it? A Klondike
barber, whose equipment included
a cyanide tank, real zed $100 in
| goid pes ton of hair from the min
ers whom he scissored. Perhaps
some barber might get his winter’s
fuel by shampooing the heads of
coal miners.
The tide flats of Hyder offer ex
ceptional opportunities to those
who are far-sighted »nough to take;
advantage of them. We expect be-j
fore two years have ; assed to seej
both sides of the wharf approach
solidly built up. Tin re can be no
doubt as to permits being secured
to connect any legitimate enterprise
with the government roadway.
Twenty-five more days, and then
Christmas. Have you done you
shopping yet? Time that presents
for the outside wera In the mail.
Choosing gifts is * totigh job for the
ordinary mortal How about e
lUbsoription to be Miner?
From all reports, the Cold Ba>
section is one of the finest places
in Alaska to stay away from this
winter.
If you would keep in the straight
and narrow way, my son, stroll out
on the government wharf approach.
