The attention of The News has
been called to the fact that a num
ber of contractors have commenced
blasting operations along the right
of-way in the canyon and that trav
eling in the canyon is thereby ren
dered somewhat dangerous.
It frequently happens that mush
ers and dog teams enroute to and
from the Broad Pass country travel
by way of the canyon, when ice
conditions will permit, and Engi
neer in Charge Browne desires it
known that the canyon has become
a dangerous route, because of the
grading work that is now in prog
ress. Extreme caution should be
observed, he says, by those passing
through the shortcut, lest they be
showered by rock blasted from the
canyon walls.

A former resident of Nenana
writes from Seattle that the Outside
is a more likeable place than Alas- i
ka. “I was a long time getting \
next to myself," the letter says, j
“but, thank goodness. I moved in |
time to get a little enjoyment out
of life."
And then the letter mentions a i
number of former Northern women |
—married women—who are holding i
:down jobs in the Queen City. “Ev- ■
erybody works out here," the writer j
Explains. “The whole family must:
Iwork in order to make both ends j
!meet, because of the high cost of:
I living. Rents are particularly high."'
Another letter from Seattle tells ■
'of a woman school teacher of that!
rity who practices higid economy!
'and who finds that she cannot cut!
'
.her actual living costs below $100 1
, per month.
