SE1RD YOUTHS SET
I Six local youths nursed a spark
j of ambition Sunday and decided
I that they would attempt to be the
' first ones to reach Mile 18 this
1 year and reap all the glory which
; results because of this achieve
j ment.
1 In three cars, Jack Rosness, Wil
j liam Burns, Adolph Rodgers, Ar
' nold Burns, Edwin Sand beck and
! Donald Shellhorn, armed them
| selves with shovels and began their
| record seeking drive to their goal,
! the shores of Lake Kenai.
They first encountered snow at
about Mile 8V2 but it was not deep
enough to give any real trouble
At Mile 91/2, however, they had to
unwrap shovels and toss some snow
out of the road and they continued
applying the shovel at various spots
along the way until Mile 11 v/as
reached. On the other side of Mile
11 there was not much snow to
speak of except in occasional
patches. However, it was rather
tough going here as the ground was
still very muddy.
The autos were considerably aid
ed in negotiating the distance over
snowbound areas by the tracks left
by caterpillar tractors and tie sleds.
The cars were guided along the
tracks left by these winter animals
and experienced no difficulty in
| traveling as long as they remained
in the tracks. However, slippery
j ice sometimes made it hard to keep
j in the tracks and the car would
| slide into loose snow. The boys—
the six of them—would then take
hold of the car and lift it back into
! the tracks and continue on.
! When the cars got through to
Mile 18 they remained there for a
while and among other things a
couple of the boys who had been
wearing oxfords started drying
their socks which had become wet
from walking in the snow on the
car radiator. While the socks were
drying, the boys disported them
selves to running around on the
Lake Kenai beach barefooted.
On the way back, riot much
trouble was encountered except for
occasional slipping on the still icy
road. The journey out and back
took about five and one-half hours.
It is said this is the earliest date
cars have traversed the distance
from Seward to Mile 18 in many
years and it is about two weeks
earlier than the cars made it thru
last year.
With the snow disappearing daily
it is said it won’t be long until no
trouble will be experienced in go
ing over the highway.

BETTER TIMES ARE COMING
Don’t be Discouraged!
Don’t lose the will to win .... don’t join the pessimist's who
see naught but disaster ahead—
During a previous depression, the government had to is
sue paper “Clearing House Certificates” as a substitute for
money. Conditions were just as bad, only we have forgotten.
Prosperity has always followed bad times—this is one of the
laws of business cycles.
Now is the time to substitute the word “Reconstruction” for
“depression.”
Don’t be discouraged. Lend a hand to reestablish confidence.
America will see this through and emerge victorious.
Better times are coming!
We pay 4 per cent interest compounded semi
annually on all savings accounts.
