A LAND OF CONTRASTS
Alaska is certainly a land of vivid contrasts. Imag
ine riding in big, comfortable car a hundred miles north
from Fairbanks over a perfect road with rivers frozen
and the hand of Winter heavy on the land. Imagine so
journing for a week or two at Circle Hot Springs with
in the very shadow of the Arctic Circle with plenty of
fresh vegetables and hot house flowers while the steam
ing waters lure the twinges from your rheumatic bones!
Something phoney about that story of the poor, lit
tle, rich girl on the stage who had several millions but
wanted to be anonymous and draw down her forty
“bucks” a week on her merits but the press agent let
the story leak out and she quit. Who ever had a press
Agent on forty a week?
THOSE DAYS ARE GONE
It would be interesting to go over the senate records
and find out if those two senators appointed to sit in on
the London Naval Limitations Conference voted “aye”
•or “no” on that fifteen cruiser program and if so, why.
And we wonder if they will now have to vote to scrap
'em, and what their feelings will be. Fine thing to be able
to play with the public money, not obliged to declare
yourself definitely for peace or war; it gives such a fine
chance to sidestep the issue. Just like some of those
birds in the senate who drink wet and vote dry. Where,
Oh where, are some of those lion-hearted public men of
yesteryear who created issues and stayed with them?
Still, we suppose there are some folks who don’t
amount to enough to get themselves investigated.
THE VILLAGE PROPHET
“Will wonders never cease?” as the old lady said
when she saw her first bicycle. And now the gigantic
Dornier airplane, another German creation, carries 169
persons for an hour over Lake Constance in Switzer
land, by far the greater number of persons that have
ever been up in the air at one time. Do you remember
ten years ago when you sort o’ grinned to yourself as
the village prophet grew oracular and waved his pipe
in the air and said, “Yes sir boys, you and me will live
to see the day when they’ll be carrying maybe a dozen
people from one place to another in one of them con
traptions.” But then a prophet was ever without honor
in his own town, city and country.
