BIGGEST FUfl STAMPEDE
UNDERWAY IN AUSKA
PENINSULA REGION!
I
i The latest big assemblage of hu
mans, dog teams, mukluks and snow
? shoes for a stampede in Alaska occur
ed May 1 at Iliamna on Cook’s Inlet
for the beaver imush to Clark’s Lake.
i Two hundred and 60 hardy trail blaz
ers and trappers had gathered there
to take advantage of a special dispen
i sation by which each and all would
be granted the privilege of trapping
'
20 beaver before the indefinite sus
pension comes. They will operate for
30 days and then beaver are to be tabu
until the authorities lift the ban.
Reports from Iliamna reflect some
of the atmosphere that surrounded old
gold rush days. They were a hard
bitten lot, many of them veterans of
older and more strenuous stampedes
when yellow gold was the lure. Still
at that, $600 to $1,000 in 30 days was
not a prize to be sneezed at.

They drifted in there from Bristol Bay
from around Cook’s Inlet and from
more remote parts of Alaska, imen and
even women who have taken the long
chance in Alaska. Its worthy of note
that the hardships they encounter

Closer than a tattooed anchor
P.A. and I arc like that. Closer than the
paper on the wall. P. A. is so companionable,
so genuinely friendly. When you open the
tidy red tin, you get a fragrant notice of how
friendly it’s going to be in a pipe. Then you
tamp in a load and apply the match.
Man, that taste! Cool as an Eskimo’s front
porch. Refreshing as arctic sunshine. Mel
low and mild and long-burning, with a full,
rich tobacco-body that puts you next to
a new kind of pipe-joy. Here’s a smoke
that you can write home about. It’s got
everything!
They tell me more P.A. is smoked than
any other brand. I believe it, and I think I
know why. If you don’t know the deep-down
satisfaction of a jimmy-pipe and Prince
Albert, you’ve been missing the best bet in
the whole tobacco-line. I’m giving it to you
straight, Men.
