THE ANNUAL EXODUS
With the coming of fall many Alaskans will once
more start to flock out of the territory for the winter.
Mothers taking their children outside to school, relatives
going out to visit their loved ones in the states, and trav
elers who go south every winter to sunnier climes, will
fill the southbound ships to overflowing. To these the
Gateway wishes Godspeed and hopes that they tarry not
too long—though it is confident that the lure of the north
will bring them back with the robins in the spring.
Every person leaving Alaska for the states should re
member how little is known outside of the true Alaska,
and should lose no chance to plead the country's cause and
to tell of the possibilities and resources of the north-land.
Every Alaskan going outside shuold be a self-appointed
lecturer of the geography, climate and resources of the
territory, for it is only thus that the people in the states
will ever learn that Alaska is not the land of ice and snow
depicted by many writers who have never visited Alaska,
but is a veritable Land of Promise.

“PRETTY LADIES” STARRING ZA
ZU PITTS AND TOM MOORE IS
STORY OF BROADAWAY FOL
LIES AT LIBERTY TONIGHT
Coming to the Liberty theatre to
night and Monday with two shows at
7:00 and 8:45 p. m., is the novelty
feature “Pretty Ladies,” starring Za
zu Pitts and Tom Moore. This pic
ture is different from most in that it
has within it a Broadway Follies show
with scenes from the stage in natural
colors, and also scenes back stage in
to the life of the follies girl.
As a special attraction in this no
velty feature is Ann Pennington, who
takes the lead of the Follies and does
a delightful dancing act, which is
also in natural colors.
Mingled with the tinge of the stage
is a storv of no small matter, which
goes to make this a very fine feature.
A Pathe News reel and a two reel
comedy go to complete a fine even
ing of enjoyment.
Lucky Says: In spite of
the fact that eggs are climb
ing up, Lucky is still selling
his wonderful eggs, not pul
lets or cold storage at 45c,
so come on boys.
