MAN LOST IN COAL
MINE JUST SAT STILL
OWENBORO. Ky. —When Do
lar Johnson became lost in a coal
mine near here he decided to
stay in one place to await res
cuers. He sat still for four days
until he was found and saved.
Had Johnson began wandering
in the mine, said officials, he
might have become hopelessly
lost and died before he was
found.
Johnson, rescued, took a drink
of water and went back to work.
He said he was not hungry.

ALASKA
Rev. A. J. D., Cicero, 111.
I have wandered thru Alaska,
Up and down its many trails;
I have sailed its lakes and rivers,
Listened to its many tails.
I also viewed its mountain
heights,
Covered thick with crystal snow;j
I have wandered thru its valleys,
With their glaciers down below, j
I have seen its forests so thick,
With birch, spruce, and pine;
Its meadows, too, with mellowed
grass,
Thickly strewn with flowers fine.
I have marveled at its fishes,
The deer, the moose and the bear
II have seen its birds so varied,
Like a picture everywhere.
I have seen its lakes and rivers,
i Running up and down the land;
With waters clear or full of silt,
Winding Like a silken band.
I have traveled up the Yukon,
I’Tween hills and mountains high;
Thru the flats and round the is
lands,
Ran its rapids with a sigh.
Yes, every mile has its sights,
And every sight a story;
O! What strange tales they could
relate,
Of Alaska’s history.
I’ve seen Alaska wild and wooly,
Yet peaceful everywhere;
And its men so grim and moody,
Yet determined to stay there.
It takes men of grit and iron,
To face ail dangers there;
But there’s something in that
I struggle,
That grips them all, everywhere.
They struggle with hunger and
! thirst,
They fight the wolf and the bear;;
But there to stay, they must and
must,
To show—they are men up there.
The traveler comas, and he goes.
Returning home full of thrills;
But he will never see or dream,!
Dramas played back in the hills.
To know Alaska, one must see it,
Its whole nature in the rough;
To appreciate, you must know it,
Just to read is not enough.
