OUR AMERICA
Join with me in looking upon a
mental picture of Valley Forge as it
is today. It is calm and peaceful,
quiet and lovely. On the beautiful
soldiers’ monument is this inscription,
written by General Washington:
“Naked and starving as they are, we
can not enough admire the incompar
able patience and fidelity of the sol
diery.”
It was not always so.
There was a day when men in rag
ged uniforms walked over the frozen
snow with bleeding feet. There was
a day when the leader of these men,
who signed himself “G. Washington,”
was spending anxious days and wor
ried nights over an unsolvable conun-j
drum.
“How could his few and ragged and
undisciplined irregulars meet and
overcome the many and well-equipped,
trained regulars of the British army
stationed at Philadelphia, not far
away?"
This man was a gentleman and he !
lived in a beautiful home. He had
plenty of money in the bank and he
had a wide circle of friends—and yet
he and these ragged irregulars en
dured and fought and bled, and stood
ready to die, in order that we might
have our kind of America.
And—when a collection of ignorant,
unwashed, illiterate, foreign-speaking,
and some American-speaking, wild
men think that they are going to turn
these United States of ours upside
down, that they are going to give us
their kind of an America, that they
can make our country not a land of J
freedom, where every man has a |
chance, but a land of anarchy where |
no man has a chance, they are fooling j
themselves.
They can’t do it.
I am an American, and so are you,
and so are at least 95 per cent of
our one hundred millions.
Bolshevism!
We Americans won’t have it.—
Shrine Bulletin, Seattle.
ARMV MAIL SERVICE
---
That the coast towns in both South- j
eastern and Southwestern Alaska are
in a fair way of getting an aerial mail
service through the efforts of army
air officials, even though such service
does not immediately touch the In
terior, is cause for gratification to us
all. Such a service will be but the
first step in the establishment of an
aerial service all over Alaska.
Once it is in operation, the hardest
part will have been overcome, and it
should not be difficult to secure ex
tensions from time to time as they
may become necessary or be deemed j
advisable. In fact, the logical devel
opment of such service should, Within
the space of a few years, bring relief
to remote Alaskan points in connec
tion with present mail service condi
tions.
The proposed service will indirectly
benefit the interior of Alaska by cut
ting down the present time required
for mail transportation. It should be
more frequent and regular than the
service now maintained by coast
steamship companies and make us in
dependent of their whims in mail mat
ters.—Fairbanks Citizen.
VOICE OF THE ALASKA PRESS
It is now certain that everything
within the range of human possibility
will be done to relieve Hyder of the
handicaps under which she is now
laboring.—Hyder News.
Next spring when work opens up j
there is going to be a big demand
for men. Every industry is going to
need employes, and it now appears
as if some of them are going to suf
fer for a lack of workers. Every man
lacking retards our development by
just so mjuch. We realize that this
is a hard country in which to endure
idleness. But there isn’t a man who
will remain in for the three months
or so of non-employment, probably
not that long, who will not be better
off than those who make the trip to
the States, and the former will be on
the ground floor when the best jobs
are being filled and stands a chance
of getting the pick of the lot.—Fair
banks Citizen.
