“GRIT. GRIEF AND GOLD"
Possibly no more engaging sub
ject could have been selected by'
Dr. F. B. Whiting for a historical j
narrative than the three words;
epitomising the luminous elements j
clustered about the life of a great!
empire builder. Nor is there a j
more perfect analogy expressive1
of price and reward for men who
do not write defeat in their re
cords. but on the other hand rear
up imperishable monuments which
stand to beckon others while guid
ing the way to exalted heights.
There are men whom destiny has 1
marked out for its own. endowed
them with forces and talents, set
them upon the stage of life, there •
to perform their ailoted task and
again snatched them away, leav
ing others to carry on under the
Inspiration of their handiwork.
Such a man w. s M. J. Honey..
uoneer radread builder of Alas
And i: is. as the author points •
tut. “with a singular blending of;
rag rant memories and reflections
f a great personal loss, that the
vriter records the . . . narrative.” j
The deft manner in which Dr.;
Vhiting has assembled his narra
ive, in which he escapes the te
iium of chronology by blending
ust sufficient of lire melodrama
o impose emphasis and back- .
round, makes of “Grit, Grief and
Hold" a gripping and interesting
tory. In this he clings tenaciously
o historical accuracy.
To Alaskans who shared in the '
stirring events of 1898. “Grit, Grief
and Gold" opens a floodlight of
hallowed memories, re-arranges the
stage for a thrilling drama and
again allows them to enact one of
the most brilliant chapters in the
history of ccnqeust of the Great
Northland.
In reading •'Grit, Grief and
Gold" it is like setting aside this
actual world and joining the car
avan of time-dimmed heroes on a
trail which holds an adventure be
yond every turn.
It is the best story of Alaska j
since Rex Beach.

Considerable anxiety has been
felt at Anchorage since Wednesday
when KFQD was notified from
Nome of the failure of Pilot Bob
Reeve. Seward aviator, to arrive
from Me Grath.
Accompanying him were Mr.
and Mrs. O. Hay of Nome, and two
small children, a four-year old and
a baby but a few months old.
Piloi Reeve was not one to take
a chance and it is the Seward
opinion that Reeve set down some
place upon running into bad
w'eatner which is reported from
Interior points
Pilot Reeve and passengers left
Seward late Sunday morning for
Anchorage where they remained
overnight and where extra supplies
were stowed in the plane. Monday
morning they took v/ing for Mc
Grath where they remained all
night. Tuesday morning Reeve
hopped of! for Nome and failed
to arrive. Today makes the third
day without word from him.
In the interim every aviator in
the Interior, every Signal Corps
station and operator and every
point along the route Reeve had
intended to follow, have been no
tified of the circumstances with
instructions to be on the alert.
Pilots Matt Nieminen and Harry
Blunt, flying for the Pacific Alas
ka Airways, flew over a great area
ysterday but not a trace of Bob's
plane was seen. Similar flights
will be made today.
We carry a full line of fresh
meat and poultry—its Swifts and
delicious. Price is right- Trv us—
COOPERS.
Reeve had planned to fly to
Nome by way of Kaltag.
Reeve’s plane was a Fairchild
and was recently purchased from
the P. A. A. Weeks had been spent
overhauling the ship and it was !
said to have been in perfect con- j
dition.
The Arctic Airways, Plumb, Wa1- ;
ters and Pilot Johnnie Moore, in J
a long-distance telephone call to j
The Gateway, late last night, ex- '
pressed their desire to join the |
search today if Reeve continues
to be unreported.
Next Thursday evening, over
KSL, Salt Lake City, Fr. Bernard ;
Hubbard will lecture on his 1932 j
exploration trip to Westward Alas- j
ka, according to an announcement !
broadcast yesterday.
