BRING MORE PEOPLE
TO ALASKA
It is now time to take up j
i lie cause of the many people
who might be populating the
vast expanse of uncccupied Al
askan Territory and enjoying
the benefits of the untold re
sources of its country.
There should be great plea
sure in re-awakening the good;
old pioneering- instinct, which
lay dormant during the period
of the war.
When such a handful of peo
I>le as we. who have such a ter
ritory as this, lose the craving
to see it full of cities, farms &
manufactories, we are either
aging too rapidly, or some-1
thing has “got our goat.*’
Last week one of our friends
handed us the following contri
bution, which,might be followed
with advantage by every one.
Not Hard To Take
Just Try It.
BILL; Dont you think we
should take a trip outside and
see some real Human beings,just
for a change?
“Naw- I think we had belter
stay at home and do a little
thinking, cultivate the habit of
being pleasant with every one
and boost “if you cannot speak
well of your neighbour, do not
speak of him at all” in other
words'll' you can’t boost, don’t
knock”.
How much nicer we would
appear to each other if we would
analyse our own faults and let
the other fellow do the same.
The very meanest man in the
world has his friends. That is
win you make enemies by knock
ing- “Forget it” be a
good fellow and boost, you will
let l1-otter, si *ep better and live
longer.”
Well, Bill, I believe you are
right, let us try it.
