through,
j But why do I and why should
you?
j There's life in the cold Alaskan
air.
And often beauty everywhere.
There's beauty in snow and
frosted trees . . .
The way trees are, when there’s
been no breeze;
In mountains with ever chang
ing face;
And fences that frost has turn
ed to tace;
In skiers skimming down the
hills;
And skaters and coasters in
spite of spills;
In iceboats and dog teams rac
ing by.
They're having fun. so why not
I?
The sky on a clear Alaskan
night
Is for waking not sleeping.
I think I’m right.

Throughout Year

again this week coordinating
the current fund raising cam
paign.
In speaking of the Salvation
Army’s wide scope of opera
tion, Lieutenant Holmes point
ed out that during the past
year considerable help has
been extended to residents of
the Matanuska Valley area.
Some of this assistance in
cluded 33 individuals who were !
helped at Christmas time when j
food, toys, clothing, and other I
items were distributed. Thirty
one persons received emergen- i
cy help during the year, in
the form of gasoline, job place
ment, food, clothing and hous
ing. A number of persons were
referred to the Social Center in
Anchorage and included in the
44 girls who received care in \
the Booth Memorial Home for
Girls, were some from the val-,
ley area.
The Salvation Army workers
spend considerable time in pri
son work, talking with prison
ers soon after they are admit
ted, and aiding them whenever
possible with counseling and
spiritual aid. Many missing
persons inquiries go to the
Salvation Army and work is
carried on throughout the state
in helping relatives and friends
locate missing persons.
Salvage and rehabilitation ;
centers in Anchorage, Fair
banks, Juneau and Ketchikan j
have helped solve many pro
blems for families in need.
Lieutenant Holmes pointed
out that dollars donated during
the annual campaign for funds
find their way into many ave
nues of service, especially on
the local level.
Local work is carried out by
an area committee composed of
residents of Palmer, Sutton,
the Butte area, and Wasilla.
