Bucaneers Humbled
Twice Same Night
By the Yank’s Team
Tricks were reversed! on the Pirates
last night when the Yanks forced them
to walk the plank in the first game
and in the second, hung ’em high on
the yard arm of the staunch ship S. A.
C. As the smoke cleared at the end
of the first game of indoor baseball
the broadside showed the Pirates had
been scored against sixteen times
while the Yanks held back the invad
ers to six scores.
“Out cutlasses and side arms,” the
wild chant of the bandana-covered,
ferocious appearing Pirates, failed to
break the spirit of the Yanks, during

FOUR GREAT FEARS
COUNT'EM
Four great fears accompany you from
your home to your work and remain
with you throughout the day—
1* The fear of your family being
left unprovided for;
2. The fear of a penniless old ago
for yourself;
3. The fear of loss of income from
total or partial disablement;
4. The fear of losing what you
have accumulated.
Would it be worth anything to you to have these
fear* eliminated from your life—to know that you
were shielded by a complete circle of protection?
A line to us will bring you full details without com
mitting you to any action.

Looking Ahead!
Alaskan progress of the past forecasts the future greatness of
the Northland, and justifies all Alaskans in holding to their firm faith
in the Territory’s possibilities and worth. By aiming high and
working together—actively and steadily—those having to do with
Alaskan progress can accomplish much. Looking ahead to still
greater things, and planning and working accordingly, is the one
way that a high purpose can be realized.
The Alaska Railroad—a pioneer system—is gradually and pains
takingly striding towards a great goal—the greater development of
Alaska; and, that the future is bright and promising is attested by
the steady and consistent upward trend of past and present activi
ties. The Alaska Railroad is “Looking Ahead.”
