SCRAP BOOK EXERPS
—
Ben F. Primmer, attorney, Hamil
ton, Ohio:—“My impression is that
the tourist’s travel to Alaska is very
small in comparison with what it
should be, when you consider the in
teresting things to see on an Alaskan
trip. If the grandeur and beauty of
Alaska were properly advertised and
sold to people there would be a thous
and tourists to Alaska, where there is
now one. I think for one thing that
there should be a booklet for free dis
tribution on “Alaska”, written up in
good style telling about the country
and giving in color pictures of the in
teresting sights.”
Louis Bell, Kenai lake resident tor
many years, was a brief visitor in
town Wednesday night leaving for
home yesterday morning.
A show never to be forgotten tonite.

Lite Along the Yukon
(Recalled by Joe Mills)
Its of a mighty river that I will sing my lay
Its of the mighty Yukon that winds into the bay
Along its green and wooded banks its there I long to be
Then life along the Yukon is good enough for me.
Its spring time and the singing birds are coming from the South.
The ice has left the river from the lakes down to its mouth.
All nature teemes with gladness, and the buds are on the trees
Then life along the Yukon is good enough for me.
There are berries on the hillside and salmon in the streams
Plenty of moose and caribou to make life a dream
Where the beaver, mink and muskrat by its streams sleep peaceiully
Then life along the Yukon is good enough for me.
My latch key hangs on the cabin door for friends that might pass by
A big bull moose hangs in the catch most pleasing to the eye
And I will lay me in my bunk and my pipe smoke curl up free
Then life along the Yukon is good enough for me.
Now I will take my pick and pan and try my luck once more
My little canoe so staunch and true lies nestling by the shore
And I’ll hike me up a creek where the gold might shinning be
Then life along the Yukon is good enough for me.
The natives in their kiyak go fishing to the sea-.
To catch the seal and salmon to feed their family
And the native girls so bashful they will hide behind a tree
Then life along the Yukon is good enough for me.
Now my* old dog howls for friends of yore thata gone to the great outside
Some of them with gold in store and have taken on a bride
The Chaco girls are pretty and their face are fair to see
But the Squaw girls along the Yukon are good enough for me.
Now here’s to friends of by-gone days, their faces I’ll see no more
They have crossed the great divide, gone to that golden shore
They have gone to heaven and they will potlatch there with glee
But life along the «&ikon still holds its charms for me.
