REQUESTS LAND FOR
RECREATION SITES
The Territory of Alaska has
requested the reservation of four
public recreation sites in the
Lake Louise area, it was an
nounced today by the Bureau of
Land Management. These four
sites, which embrace a total of
377 acres, consist of narrow strips
of land an either side of three
principal fishing streams., togeth
er with a narrow peninsula
which extends into Lake Susitna.
The stream bank reservations, if
granted, will keep these impor
tant fishing streams accesssible to
the public. The peninsula will re
tain a valuable boat landing and
camping area for the public’s use.
Action of this nature conforms
to the programs of sportsmen’s
associations of protecting impor
tant fishing streams and recrea
tional values for the use of the
general public and has the special
endorsement of the Anchorage
Chapter of the Izaak Walton Lea
gue of America, Inc., defenders
of soil, woods, waters and wild
life. The four sites have been
selected by the Fish and Wild
life Service and if reserved for
the Territory will be available
for inclusion in the Dingell-John
son program as administered un
der the supervision of the Fish
and Wildlife Service.

his graying hair, he added: “this
is a bad night, I am worried.”
“Her Ladyship will be here,"

elite of London’s New Year cele-_
brants seemed only an echo.
“Two Martinis’ very, very dry?”
Louie inquired. A brief nod was
the answer. McFarlane kept the
entrance in check with his deep
set gray eyes. Nervously he
smoothed the tablecloth, lit a ci
garette and carefully inserted it
into a gold holder. When he
looked up again, her dark eyes
were questioning his.
“My darling,” he got up to seat
her opposite himself. “I did not
see you.”
“You were not supposed to,”
she answered honestly, slowly tak- '
ing off her gloves. “Did, you
bring that letter, Vil?”
“Of course, my dear.” He ex
amined every cherished feature
of her beautiful face; the dark
brown hair smoothly drawn away
from her temples, the delicate
coloring, the mouth always a little
open, the long dark lashes now
shading her eyes. “You are more
lovely than ever,” he said simply.
Gently they clinked their glasses.
“Read it to me now, please, “
Axelle asked, her voice barely a
whisper.
Hesitation
A moment’s hesitation before his
hand tightened over the parched
paper.
“Date and everything?” he 1
looked at her.
“As always,” she replied breath
lessly.
It was a familiar routine, opening
the letter, but there was always
something wonderful and new
about it. His hands trembled
slightly.
“January 1, 1947,” he began
steadily and read the letter to the
end! ‘My undying love, dearest,
have Faith with me, Vil.’ He
looked up and wanted to kiss away
the tears in her eyes. The letter
simply told of the love and devo
tion of a man for a woman he
had searched for in forty drifting
years of a lifetime and that would
not be defeated in the face of every
known obstacle that human society
can devise. Hie pain and suffering
had long since gone, but there re
mained, in both of them, a humble
gratitude toward each other.
Memories
“Dear Heart,” he lit a cigarette !
for her, “do you remember that j
night at Lugano, when we took a
cabby along the lake and you
kissed the horse right on the nose
and you laughed until it hurt? And
later-—on the balcony? I have seen
you happy, but never happier.”
“And Cochenil’s little bar in
Paris?” she asked him. “Let’s
walk, darling,” she added softly,
“we will walk along the embank
ment in the fog and look at the
lights on the Thames.” They left,
nodding smilingly to Louie, who,
tactfully opened the door without
saying a word.
“And WHO do you suppose, they
are,” some waiter jeered. Louie
looked at him with contempt. Then
he sighed and slowly answered:
Watchnight Services

New Year’s eve plans in the

Klondike Mike Mahoney
By Bob Klem
The wanton muse, she smiled
serene
At the Queen of the Bordello
And conjured up a man to pack
To her a grand piano.
He packed it up the Chilkoot trail
Did Klondike Mike Mahoney
He traveled 90 miles a day
Did Irish Mike Mahoney.
Like harps that rang thru Taras
Hall
The soul of Music too
Was brought to men in Dawson
town
The muses gift and true.
Now Klondike Mike has gone
away
Gone too the Chilkoot trail
Pianos now can make the trip
In box cars on the rail.
But Irish eyes grow dim
For Klondike Mike Mahoney
And English Mary mourns for
him
And that is no baloney.
In days of old they broke the
mold.
Of Klondike Mike Mahoney
There’ll never be a man again
Like Irish Mike Mahoney.
GUSTAVE LINDQUIST
VJCTIM OF FIRE
A coroner’s jury this morning
found that Gustav Lindquist, 64,
of Mile 78, died an accidental
death by fire on December 26.
Lindquist, who lived alone in
a small log cabin behind King
Mountain Lodge, was a long-time
Alaskan resident and had spent
the past few winters at Kiiig
Mountain. It is believed that ,a
heating stove exploded, trapping'
Lindquist in the cabin. His body
was found between two cats
where he had apparently fallen
in trying to escape the blaze. John
Evans, a neighbor, discovered
the fire shortly after midnight,
but was unable to enter the cabin
because of the flames. Ter'^toriai
Police were called and investi
gated the fire.
Members of the jury were
Ralph Moore, foreman, Bernard
Bouwens, Darrel Frank, Art Sten
berg, Joe Loyer, and William
Smith. Witnesses were Evans and
Ray Grosser ,the latter who tes
tified as to the ljength of time
Lindquist had lived in that area.
Funeral arrangements are
pending. It is believed that the
victim is survived by a family in
the States.
“They have beet* coming here for
about ten year* now. always this
same time. They order a drink,
read that lettter and leave.”
“So what,” the other was not
satisfied, “tell us, who they are.”
“He is at the British Embassy,
charge d’affaires, in Paris. The
lady is his wife.”
