ECHOES OF THE INVESTIGATION
Senator Howell is of an inquiring turn of mind.
Up at an Anchorage cafe he looked around and re
marked about the several boxes of strawberries on
the shelf.
“Very nice berries,” he said. “Where do you get; them? They
must be expensive way up here in Alaska.”
“Oh sir,” replied the French waitress in her best manner, “they
are grown right here, and we only have to pay twelve and a half
cents a box for them, sir.”
“Well, well!” said Howell, “and I see you have nice looking
milk, too. Is it also produced here?”
“Yes, indeed,” said Madelon. “and it is quite cheap, sir. We only
pay twenty-five francs,—no, twenty-five cents a quart for it, sir.
“And I notice you have nice looking bread, too.” said the Sen
ator. “Is it baked in Anchorage?”
“Yes, indeed,” said Madelon, powdering her nose. “It sells here
at two big loaves for a quarter."
“Well, ladve faire,” remarked the Senator, “you may serve me
a bowl of bread and milk and a small dish of berries.”
The service was rendered, with a new paper nap
kind on the side, and when the inquiring Senators paid
his bill it took five pre-war francs, or one dollar to
settle.
The Senator smiled and said: “Manselle of the nez-poudre, I
can see with one good eye that what is needed up here is a closer
collaboration between the producer and the consumer.'’
“Oui. oui,” said Madelon. ‘help yourself to the toothpicks, sir."

Up at Anchorage a music dealer ordered a number
of copies of a once popular song, which starts:
“We will mourn him, we will miss him.
There will be one vacant chair."
Several of the railroad departments have bought
copies, and as they sing in chorus they look at each
other with suspicion.
. . . • • *
Speaking of songs, the Anchorage Times has
written the words to one, and as soon as it can be set
to music, free copies will be available at half a dollar
apiece. The first verse reads:
“A million deficit is quite well invested,
In grabbing our share we are much interested,
Any irimrmng oi jous wm ue nuuy '-u“"wuv“'
No sofas or rocking chairs shall be molested,
While the grub at Curry is so easy digested.”
During the taking of testimony relating to sur
plus jolts at the railroad headquarters Senatoi Ken
drick' remarked that it reminded him of Washington
during the war time.
“There was one case where a man held a job. as a
foreman of a gang, at an extra wage. He got ambitious
and worked a pull to get appointed general foreman.
An investigation was ordered and the discovery was
made that he was the only man in the gang. He had
worked his pull once too often.”

It it is said that the captain of a 12-foot scow in
formed the Senators that Anchorage harbor was all
right for navigation, and produced a bottle of water
to prove his assertion.

At Lawing the Senators made a short stop, and
were listening to a story about a grizzly chasing , a
woman, and just as he was about to grab her the train
whistle blew and they had to rush away leaving the
“oso grande” with his paws outstretched toward his
victim.
“Gosh,” said Senator Thomas as he climbed the
steps, ‘Til not be able to sleep nights till I hear the
rest of the story.”
I (ML FOLK RETURN ;
FROM PASS VAGATION!
“Seward or bust-’ was the bat- !
tie cry of seven local residents i
who, owing to change ’in rail
road schedule, were almost ma- 1
rooned in the Moose Pass area,
but who arrived last night by
auto from Lake Kenai.
However, “Tramp, Tramp, and
some more Tramping” probably j
fits the case better for the party j
"hit the grit” from Moose Pass
Station, Mile 29, to Lawing, Mile j
23, where Mrs Nellie Neal Law- !
ing prepared them a bounteous'
spread.
j Mr. and Mrs. Leon Urbach, j
: Mr. and Mrs. Harold Painter, Mr. i
I and Mrs Charles Sheldon and j
| little Jerry Protzman were the 1
I hikers.
From Lawing they were taken i
across the lake to Mile 14. the ;
! terminus of the Seward High
way, where friends met them
j with autos and whizzed them
home.
The party had a wonderful
j vacation and were reluctant to »
i leave but duty beckoned,
j Most of the time was spent at
j Mope dul a line ciuck num, wm •
! enjoyed from Chas. Mathison’s i
boat on Ptarmigan Arm, in the |
j Chickaloon flat region. They I
! lived on Charley’s boat while -
knocking over the birdies.
