COMMUNITY CENTER DRAV.TS CONI'".ENT
To those of us who sec the steady
orogress day by day, the erection of
all the buildings at the Community
Center is taken as a matter of
course.. It is in talkin' to those
who have been away for a period and
bhen returned that we really beL,in to
to realize what has been acc umlished
End so it is with other chases of
the construction work attendant to
the establishin of a complete town.
One can wander a bit off his beat
en trail and stumble upon things of
which he has heard nothing -- things
vitally inn ortant to the set-up as
a whole.
The excavation of the big sewer
pit is such a job. Under adverse
weather conditions chiton Anderson
has had his men at work getting the
huge disposal nit ready for the tine
when the sewrors will have to have
someplace to er.ptyi
This big trench, twenty feet deen,
twelve feet wide and two hundred feet
long, lies south of the hosoital awa';
from all oth^r activities.
This trench has bcon lined with
lor c logs and a double covering of
cross lo' s has been placed ui too of
the side cribbing, :.eking a lar -e
under -round box with a cane city of
6,000 cubic feet. Excavated, as it
is, out of the gravel bed forming
the valley floor below the top soil,
it will be ample to take care of all
Cor.nullity ‘Center sewage.

When it’s sorinytine in hiaska and
it’s 99 below,
Where the Eskimos a barefoot thru
the white and drifted snow,
When Pilar bears ot sunburned at
nidni at ^r by day,
vrhen it’s sprirmtiiae in Alaska - in
Air.ska far away•
Where the berries e.row like a urn kins
and a cabba./e fills a truck,
Where milk and cream arc flowina,
for a market we ’ re not stuck,
Where the sun is always shinin; and
the seals sin.- all the day,
When it’s sarin tine in „laska - in
Alaska far away.
There the salmon fishina’s perfect -
they Woiyh 90 pounds or so,
Where the bin trout run in thousands
■a-fi shiny we will ;r.
’Where sold nu : ets block the creek
beds and the caribou eat our hay
'Wien it’s springtime in Alaska - in
A1 .ska far away.
Some pernio think we’re foolish
and arc sure we will regret;
I’n afraid they are nistaken for

So here wc arc Alaska, and TrF
