NEED FOR PROMOTERS
The rejuvenation of Fairbanks which guarantees
the historical placer camp a new lease of life for an indef
inite period, indicates what may happen at a number of
points along the Alaska Railroad once promoters and
investors can be convinced that rich opportunities await
their efforts.
There are a number of distinctive spots w7here
quartz lodes warrant extensive development and where
substantial mining towns should spring up.
Perhaps the first of these is Moose Pass, where
every effort at quartz mining is proving successful; this,
aside from the placer fields. Another is Willow Creek and
also Broad Pass, where extensive lodes of copper, silver,
gold, lead and zinc crop over a wide area.
While there is merit in many of the suggestions for
bringing a spirited era of activity mining is primarily
the one calculated to usher this in at an early date.
Statistics show that there are 172,200 persons confin
ed in the insane asylums of the United States. It does not i
include those who believe a saxaphone is music.
Peace: something tat works fine when there’s no
war in sight and when there is only one man on earth.

“ICE EAVES" FOUND i
FLIERS HIT HEIGHT
UL
NEW YORK, March 13, (/P)—The
first men to report flying through ^
the “ring around the moon," the
familiar halo of light that often j
portends storms, are Lieut. Harry ;
Johnson and Capt. A. W. Stevens, j
army fliers, who reached 39,000
feet altitude, unofficially, at Day- I
ton February 12. i
At nearly the pinnacle of their
altitude, at 76 degrees below zero,
they ran into a rare condition of
the extreme upper air that pro
duces not only the rings of light
around the moon, but the “sun j
dogs,” which are rainbow patches
of light to each side of the sun.
These light effects are caused
by refraction, or bending, of light ■
in the upper atmosphere, as it
shines through ice crystals. The
fliers reported that the ice parti
cles were visible by the billions,
hanging in jjiidair.
