MR. AND MRS. CHARLES
STANFRO NOW AT JULIUS
Mrs. Charles Stanfro, who spent
last summer at Uganik, writes the
Gateway that she and her husband are
now located at Julius, Section 54, on
the Alaska railroad. She writes that
many people are passing through her
; section of the country, and that a
Mr. Dwyer and an engineer named
Jarvis have taken options on many
properties in the Salcha district and
at Ester. They came here from Si
beria. The Koyukuk is attracting a
few persons this summer, who are go
ing in to stay a year. If they fail
she believes that will finish the Koy
ukuk. One thing holding the country
1 back is that freight rates are much
| higher now than in former years.
Mr. and Mrs. Stanfro write that they
| hope to see airplanes carrying the
mails in Alaska in the near future.
Before going to Julius they were em
ployed at Healy.

And we will make an effort
To tear all barriers down.

And have the time to spare,

And see what he is doing there.

Behind a high board fence,
And all it costs to see that moose
Is just Fifty Cents.
