CHITINA .ALASKA. BEBRTJAHY 7, 1952.
First we should correct last week*s paper;where it read about Mrs.Grif
fiths* fine roadhouse,and it should have read "She has been in Business'
ln Alaska for about J35 or maybe more years,& is loved by hundreds of Alaska]!
HOT LUCK — The GI LIAM Airways got
another new contract to land at Long
Lake.Oscar Winchell took the mail &
the Lake was everfloed and his skiis
were coverd with ice.At Chitina he
had it shoveId off.

EDITORIAL. — Harry King,President
of the Native Council, should be high
ly recomended as he did a goodpciece
of work for his tribe.When he was of
fered some ho-och/ he turned it into
the Commissioner,and turned the sel
ler or giver in.This was a great sa-.
orifice as he likes'to drink as well
as the rest of them,but he thot it
was for the good of the tribev In
this respect .he is showing himself
a good Chief for shov/ing-up the men
that sell the. Natives liccer.

THE STORM BLEW OVER — Not over once
a year usualy in Chitina has there
ever been hiyu big wind in winter.
What.Never? Well,Hardly Ever."About
a month ago when Big Carl burnt the
bearing'on his Snow-bird Out,there
was one. And one recently,crashing
Pilot Winchellfs airplane hangar oh
Trout Lake,into toothpicks & Patch
ing canvass.Actualy there is not so
much left of it but kindl&p^ut maybe
he will salvage it..It was ffiUde to
shelter the nose of the Swallow air
plane.If'it should try to shelter it
self now,in such a mess,it would be
liable to get a swollen nose.
PILOT WINCHELL came back from Cordo
va at 5 minutes of 5,droppt mail &
passenger,loaded up,took off,& flew
to Copper Center Airport with mail.
ALCOHOL - -"MULTIPLIES a man’s trou
bles ,aches'and pains. SUBTRACTS irpm
his health,and moral strength. "'s'
DIVIDES his powers of concentration,
purpose and initiative. ADDS to his
difficulties,and increases his weak
nesses. Young Kan,DON'T DRINK! ■
THE FINE GIFT of new books for the
Public Library are how on the shelves.

OH, GEE WHIZ AIM’Tut Orful HOY some
*Vof usrizes Can’t enderstand Anglesh
Lingo? Regarding the letter in
the newsmagazine"TIME"(Jan.£5,193T
from Dr.Chas.E.Bunne11,a man that
we boys very greatly admire,(and
Billy wants to go'to school tohim
at the Alaska. Agricultural College
& School of Mines at Fairbanks,as
soon as he is old enuf).Why oh WHY
should a man usually so kind to all
dumb animals as Dr.Bunnell,put us '
in a hole like that? When he talks,
-‘he .goes $o high over people ’ s heads
that pretty soon he ’11fbe keeping
up with Oiilam Airways, We even
find he uses such big word as "pal
indrome” ,that even put a hole in'a
dictionary,some of them at least,
as it couldn’t be found there.and
a hole in our heads where it could
not be found,either.
We as editor,felt so bad at
not "being able to comprehend his
meaning that we would have made a
flood worse than the Mississippi,
if we hadn*t had the human nature
enuf to go to the telephone. The
phone told us we had nothing to
fear because the local college gra
duates ,ex-school teachers,and U.S.'
Gov’t officials didn’t know either.
So how could the people the Lord
loves most,according to Lincoln,
be expected to understand what the
highbrows don’t know?
At last,one of the Sourdoughs
suceeded in finding palindrome in
one of the dictionaries,and every
body felt as if they had taken
some aspirin.v/e see where most of
the Chitina people ought to plan
to go along to the College at Fairr
banks with Billy,so they can learn
from Dr.Bunnell,to understand and •
use such good American words.
BUt we feel we ought to apolo
gize, when we really come to think
that with even our great experien
ce of'one year in the journalistic
field, we could not think of any .
more suitable word to express what
Dr.Bunnell intended to say,to say
nothing of a shorter one. So we
quote and add our endorsment (to
its meaning,at'least)to his "palin?
drome*!"Live on,Time,emit no evil.f
