m • M’KINLEY PARKLETS
W. F. Chandler. millionaire ranch:
owner from Fresno, Cal., is making ^
a trip through Mt. McKinley Na
tional park.
Notice has been received from
Washington that a postoffice ha?
been establisehed at this point, to
be officially known as "R.Iey”, for
the reason that there is another
postoffice named "McKinley”. R. H.1
Nichols has been appointed post
master and the office will be open
for the transaction of business in;
about thirty days. This will make
the handling of mails much better
to and from this point. Letters have
been two weeks coming from Fair
banks to McKinley Park station be
cause of the lack of proper means
of handling mail.
Application has, been made to j
have a school district established
at McKinley Park station. There
are a number of children here and
it is hoped to have a school estab- j
hshed for the coming term.
Mrs. R. H. Nichols, wife of .Agent
Nichols, sailed from Seattle on
July 29, on the steamer Alameda,
to join her husband at McKinley
Park station. She is bringing their
five children.
Mr. Harry Townsend, of the Ana
conda Copper Company, has return
ed from the Kantishna district,
where he spent a month inspecting
mining properties. He says the dis
trict looks very good to him.
The Woodbury Abbey park sur
vey party are now in the park where
they will remain until the first of
September. Van Kirk, from Healy.
is running a pack team, carrying
provisions to the party.
“Pat" Lynch has sold his road
house cabins and relinquished his
homestead rights on Riley creek to
Lou Powless. ranger of the park
service.

FORESTER THINKS DAIRYING
WILL BE INTERIOR INDUSTRY
E. A. Sherman, associate forester,
who was in N'enana on Tuesday on
| >his way hack to the coast after a
: look over the Fairbanks and N*e
r.ana districts, believes that dairy
1 ing some day will be a big industry
in Interior Alaska. He spent con
siderable time at the Government
1 experiment station near Fairbanks
and was much impressed by what
he saw there and on the nearby
farms. The development of the farm
ing industry in the seven years
since his last visit to the Interior,
he considers most remarkable, and
he agrees with Superintendent Gas
ser. of the Government farm, t^iat
the development of the next score
of years will bring about a great
1 increase in Interior population. He
' estimates that there will be at least
forty thousand permanent residents
in Central Alaska 20 or 25 years
hense.
Tfte development of the coast
section of Alaska. Mr. Sherman says,
is assured by the vast acreage of
valuable timber lands which will
supply material for many pulp and
paper mills. The development of
that industry. Mr. Sherman points
. out, is necessarily slow by reason
of the heavy investment involved
in the manufacture of pulp and
paper. But development is coming
and it will be of a permanent char
acter.
SPECIAL AT COLISEUM
“No God. No sin. No future life.
Nothing but the survival of the fit
test, and every man for himself”.
That was the ruthless creed by
which two men lived. They thought
it had brought them success and
riches until one of them was forced
to sacrifice his wife upon the altar
of that creed. Then he killed Dick
Desborough. the man he had looked
upon as his best friend, but Dick,
even after death, was not free to
progress. His spirit was forced to
remain earthbound until he was will
ing to be guided by the higher
creed that “love is the great pro
gressive force both in this world
and what we call the next”. That
is the theme about which Basil King
built the powerful story, “Earth
bound", which critics have recog
nized as the greatest and most im
pressive screen production ever at
tempted. In showing “Earthbound”
at the Coliseum next Sunday, we
feel that we are offering the su
preme achievement of motion pic
ture art. It is an event which no
one who thinks in the higher terms
of life can afford to miss.
SECRET OF LONG LIFE
CHICAGO. Aug. 3—Samuel de
Grossky died here this week at the
ripe old age of 108 years. He used
to advise his seven children to “eat
carefully, drink moderately, let
smoking and chewing alone and be
' faithful to your religion”.
J. M. Johnson, of Los Angeles, is
a recent arrival in the Interior.

'STANLEY GUERNEY DEAD;
VICTIM OF GAS EXPLOSION
-
Stanley Guemey. oldtimer of the
, Fairbanks district, died at the local
! hospital at six o'clock this morning
as the result of injuries received in:
a gas explosion last week, at some j
I point up the river. He was brought 1
1 to the hospital on July 28, terribly)
• burned about the face and body.;
; the bums extending from the top of
his head to his ankles.
Tom Mitchell was brought to the
hospital with Guemey, also badly
burned, but it is possible that he
will survive his injuries.
Winfield Erwin, Jr., who has
i charge of the freight office of the
! Alaska Railroad at Anchorage, ar
rived from the coast on the last
train. He is on a combined business i
and pleasure trip to the Interior1
| and while here is endeavoring to
J interest local people in the pro
| posed trip of Aviator C. O. Ham
' montree to Interior points, giving
exhibition flights and carrying pas
sengers aloft. Mr. Erwin made a
flight with the aviator recently and
; says aerial joy riding is beco .ling
quite popular at Anchorage. The
; machine used by Hammontree is a!
seaplane and the broad expanse of
j river in front of Nenana would
j make an ideal landing )lute.
Special Agent Billy Butler, who j
arrived from the coast this week,
denies that there is any truth in the
report of his marriage at Anchor
age recently.
