NEW TRAIL CONSTRUCTED
FROM NOME TO SOLOMON
Road Commissioner Barney Gibney
devoted his attention during the past
summer to staking a new trail be
tween Nome and Solomon along the
high land adjacent to the foothills.
Five dogs and a number of men were
engaged in the operation. The new
trail was necessary on account of the
high water and numerous overflows on
the old trail.
GAME AND FISH SCARCE
FROM CIRCLE TO ARCTIC
^ A letter from Circle says that the
people of Circle feel that they will
have to put in with Archdeacon Stuck
in saying that the natives are up
against the real thing for lack of fish
game, making the word “natives”
include all the whites. There is prac
tically no fur, from the Circle camp
to the Arctic, and no fish and no game,
and they are up against the high cost
of living.

Michigan Establishes Victory Highway Memorial
MICHIGAN has jumped ahead of the other states in providing a me
morial for its sons who served in the European war. The Michigan
idea is a Victory highway, a paved road running across the state in a non li
en sterly direction.
The Michigan State Good Roads j
association started to wgrk out (lie
plan several months ago, hut noth
ing much was said about it until it
was assured that there would be no
hitch in carrying it out. The con
tracts are now being let.
In Michigan the road is to run
from New Buffalo, near the Indiana
line to Port Huron. It will be 343
miles in length and will traverse 12
counties. It will pass through St. Joe.
Kalamazoo, Camp Custer, Battle Creek, Charlotte. Lansing, Owosso, Flint,
and La Peer. There will be a northern branch, starting from Owosso,
through Saginaw to Bay City, where the Dixie highway can be picked up.
The various counties along the proposed route have pledged their road
funds to build Ihe highway. The counties also plan to erect memorial build
ings and monuments, also parks. The names of the men who served in the
army will be listed on these monuments, with a special provision for those
who were killed or wounded. One plap is to have memorial tablets by coun
ties or townships.
A double row of walnut tr'os will be planted along the entire highway.

WE ARE THE LARGEST DEALERS IN RAW AND MANUFACTURED
FURS IN THE NORTHWEST, and all we ask of you, Mr. Shipper, is to give
us the chance of a trial shipment and we will convince you that we pay more
for furs and make quicker returns than you can get anywhere in the country.
We have been in business in Alaska for 36 years and have built up a very
extensive trade. We sell manufactured furs in all parts of the United States,
Canada, and in a great many European cities.
By\ shipping to us you are not only helping an Alaska industry but you are
helping yourself to build up a business that belongs to Alaska.
We eliminate the middleman entirely, as we buy direct from the trapper and
trader and sell direct to the consumer; thus we are able to pay you a better
price than you can get elsewhere. WE MAKE RETURNS THE SAME DAY.
SHIPMENT IS RECEIVED.
If so desired, when your shipment amounts to $100 or more, we will wire our
bid, and if not entirely satisfactory you may wire at our expense and we will
ship to any place you designate.
All we ask of you is to be fair with yourself as well as with us, and make ua
I a trial shipment; the result ■will make you a steady shipper.
