COLD WATER IS STRICTLY FOR THE BIRDS
. . . and some people. Not you though
and not your family. You like to settle
down into a tub-full of tingly. warm water
and relax your cares away.
What you need is an automatic elec
tric water heater. You’ll have hot water
. . . all the time . . . any time . . . every
tune. Plenty lor dishes ana laundry, too.
Your appliance dealer has the. right
size, right price automatic electric water
heater to fit your household needs. See
him soon and you’ll never
have that brrrr feeling
again.

Strange Things - - -
By Heinie Snider
From Ketchikan comes a
story on how to catch seals.
(Shoot them and receive a
bounty). One method claimed
by a bounty hunter Elmer Per
kins of Ketchikan is to attract
to his boat by playing violin
records on a phonograph. He
shoots them when they come
close to the boat.

With the coming of The Al
aska Railroad; highways for
auto travel and planes that
travel faster than sound—the
dog team in Alaska has be
come obsolete for travel pur
poses. The writer still remem
bers the Rt. Rev. Peter Trim
ble Rowe, Episcopal Bishop of
Alaska for 36 years, who mush
ed his dog team over 2.000
miles each year.

mined gold before Alaska be
came an American Territory.
In 1895 gold was found on Six
Mile creek, bringing thousands
of prospectors to Hope and
Sunrise and in 1904 a Japanese
cook working for the Bartholf
brothers discovered the Gold
Bullion Mine. The Bartholf
brothers also discovered Lucky
Shot, Independence, and War

Years ago Jthere was to be a
i sun eclipse. The most logical
place to record this phenomena
was a place in Southeastern Al
aska. The U. S. government
sent Porfessor Davidson to ob
serve the eclipse at Kluwan.
The chief, Kloh-Kuty and
many Natives watched the
white man unload the boat and
set up their operations. Upon a
question by the chief, “Why
you come here?” they were
foretold of the eclipse, which
; occured just as the speaker
; was explaining the event. As
; the professor was about to
( leave, the chief walked up to
the professor and whispered in
i his ear, "I give you my four
: wives and a new 12-foot canoe
i IF YOU TELL ME HOW YOU
DO IT.”
