CONSTITUT A REAL SERMON
The expression “Ain't nature grand!" means more
than its originator intended. There is no time of year, no
season, when the Alaska lover of the out-of-doors does
not find objects and conditions that will satisfy.
Whether hunting, fishing, traveling, or engaged in
the various other sports and games, there are plenty of
diversions to please the most discriminating. The fellow
who first said “Ain't nature grand!" may be excused for
his grammer, because he actually put “ain't" into the cor
rect use, while the three words formed into a sentence
constitute a real sermon.
TOO VALUABLE TO LOSE
For Travel Comfort
What have the Nome Pioneers got against Lindbergh
that they wish him to take a chance in Siberia? Seems
to us he is having enough trouble spanning new distances
for the U. S. A. The Government may send him on one
too many flights one of these days. Better keep the boy
on the ground for a while; we don’t want to lose him.
WE WONDER?
We wonder if this new insanity law in California is
going to delay justice in the Hickman case? It would
appear a good many laws these days are enacted to give
the lawless element more of a chance to win freedom and
not for advancement of the common good.
Even the seals, smelling the mild weather of the
Northland, have left California three months in advance
on their annual migration to the rookeries in the Pribil
offs.
The only thing Indiana has on Oklahoma is that she
got into the head-lines first.
Going East, seasoned trav
elers always choose the
Northern Pacific. T h-e y
know by actual compari
son the superior service of
- this pioneer system—
“North Coast Limite
Extra Comforts—No Extra Fare
Leaves Seattle daily for
Chicago—no better
in America.
“Famously good”

us help plan your next trip.

OF SEWARD LUST NIGHT
The joint installation of the I. O.
O. F. officers for this year took
place last night. After the installa
tion card tables were brought out, as
if by magic, and there was quite a
scramble lor seats and partners.
The young folks enjoyed singing, to
the accompaniment of the piano, and
the little 'tots had the time of their
young lives exploring the mysterious
fastness of many of the club rooms.
They were undoubtedly seeking for
the room containing the refreshments
such as ice cream and cake.
There was a large attendance and j
a fine spread. It is said it is seldom
such pains have been taken to make
aj. affair «f this sort, v- standard
set last night. Needless to say it
was very much appreciated by all.

■were heard and all retired to their
homes happy and at peace with the
world.
