North Poles Up for Sale
ANCHORAGE—The news from
North Pole, Alaska, has hit a dis
cordant note for this season of
the year. In a recent report from
the town which is important in
the Christmas scheme of things, it
is learned that there are surplus
poles at North Pole.
The item doesn’t go on to say
if the poles are — The Pole. No
comment has been received from
Santa’s headquarters on the na
ture of the poles and the status of
The Pole.
They are described as 40 feet
in length — utility type poles.
Reference works on The North
Pole fail to give a clue as to whe
ther it is a utility pole or not, or
if so, if it is 40 feet in length.
The only other information
available on the surplus poles is
as follows — They are located
at the North Pole Alaska Com
munication Station and they are
to be sold to the highest bidder
at a bid opening at. 2 p.m., Alaska
Standard Time, January 18, at the
Anchorage Office of the U. S.
Army Engineer District, Alaska,
Post Office Box 7002, Anchorage.
CHRISTMAS TIME
Christmas is a time of cheer,
Friends return from far and near.
The Christmas trees in jewels
! bright,
! Send out a cheer throughout the
I night.
| A happy greeting on the streets,
; Where former friends would
often meet.
In stores and shops the gifts are
found,
From door to door we make our
rounds.
i Our warmest hearts are found
at home,
A place from which we often
roam.
The church bells ring to one
and all,
We wend our way to answer
its call.
The message is of peace on earth,
Good will to men from hearth
to hearth.
