TEACHERS ARE
I ENJOYING THE
BIG OUTDOORS
Two of Cordova’s former teachers,
Miss Mary Edelbrock and Miss Mar
garet Kolbenson, have written friends
here accounts of the vacation trips
they are now enjoying. Miss Edel
brock, who left a week ago last Mon
day on a trip of several thousand
miles, through Fairbanks, Dawson and
Skagway to her home in San Diego,
California, writes from Chitina, her
first stopping place:
“I certainly have a wild trip ahead
of me. The trail is good at both ends,
but there is a stretch of about forty
miles over the summit where we will
have to go on horseback. Won’t that
be fun? I am going on Gibson’s stage,
and Billy Frame will be the driver.
I saw Mr. and Mrs. Phillips. They
have a cozy little place over the sta
tion. I also saw Mr. Oss and Warren
Taylor and Mr. Schwartz, who has
had such wonderful success at the
Indian school at Copper Center. The
Schwartses have a new baby over at
Kennecott. • >•
jl/o you rememoer mue rungsiey
McLeod who was one of my pupils
last fall? His father and mother live
at Strelna. The mine of which Mr,
■ McLeod is superintendent is closed,
but there is a gold and silver mine
belonging to Mr. Ole Berg, about 15
miles from Strelna. The McLeods
have two autos, a Ford and a Franklin
Yesterday eight of us—four in each
car—started to the mine. The part}
was as follows: In the Ford were
Mrs. McLeod, driving; Mr. Corser
Kingsley and I; in the Franklin, Mr
McLeod, driving, Mrs. Corser. Mr
Dwyer and Mr. Graham (Ethel’s
father). It had been showery evei
- since we left Cordova, so we wore old
■ .
clothes and big boots. It was luck}
we did, for it just poured. There
were no tops on the cars, but with e
couple of umbrellas and pieces of oil
cloth we kept dry in spite of the rair
and hail. The road was awful. Ir
one place the men had to chop away
the ice.
“Finally we came to a place where
the road was no more. The bank had
slid down on the road and even as we
stood it kept on sliding. We had tc
hustle to get out of the way of rocks
_ and mud. As we were only £boui
three-quarters of a mile from the mine
we hiked it while Mr. McLeod anc
Mr. Dwyer backed the cars to a safe
place. In places the road was sof!
mud where we went half way up tc
our knees. We crossed streams ol
mud and water. Finally we reached
the mine mill. Mr. and Mrs. Berg
knew we were coming and had a hoi
fire and coffee ready. We sat around
the fire and dried out a little. The
mine was away up in the hills, too fai
for us to visit, but we went through
- the mill where the gold is extracted
I" by a cyanide process.
Then we crawled into our vers
wet garments and hiked back to the
machines. The road on the way bach
was worse than it was in coming, for
the slide had kept sliding. But we got
through safely, and not one of us felt
any the worse for our experience.
This is just a sample of what I have
ahead of me.”
Miss Kolbenson, who left Cordova
more than two weeks ago for a camp
ing trip with her friend, Miss Myra
Phillips, has been having some strenu
ous times, as may be judged from a
letter she wrote last Sunday:
“We started on our camping trip
Monday, the thirty-first, and returned
Tuesday evening—eight days of it. It.
was wonderful. We visited Chilkat
cannery, the Davis mine, the Bering
river coal camp, McDonald’s (an old
coal mine on Bering lake), and other
places around the lake. I cannot be
gin to tell on paper all the wonders
of the trip, so will wait till I get back
to Cordova.
“Suffice it to say that it was eight
days crammed full of adventure and
sunburn. We went to the far ends of
four tunnels, wading in water on a
narrow tramway, picked coal, and
listened to chatter about ‘veins’ and
faults’ and ‘pinching-outs.’ We saw
scores of porcupines, and two bears,
one of which, at the Bering camp, was
shot before our very eyes. I learned
to row a canoe, shot a rifle that
kicked, and steered the boat a little.
Saw gas bubbles arising on Bering
lake. Also saw flocks of swans, geese
and ducks. There are birds galore
here.
“Have just read piles of the Cordova
Times. It’s like a drink after a long
thirsty spell to get somfe home news.
“Last night I went to a regular riot
of a ‘dawnce’—romped and raved their
circle two-steps and tags to the
strains of a phonograph and an ‘a-cor
deen.’ Until 2:30 we kept it up, then
stopped to refresh ourselves with
cider, cake and coffee.
“I want to come back to Cordova
on the next boat, but it is barely pos
sible that I may not. I want to take
the trip to the fox islands, and until
the rain quits it can’t be done. There
are five or six other trips planned, one
of them to Yakutat.
“We’ve taken several little hikes
.around here, and there are plenty of
places yet to see. Katalla certainly
has beautiful places to wander. When
I come back to Cordova I may not
leave for Bellingham until after the
Glorious Fourth.’’
