ALASKA’S PIONEER FLYER
Y •
u
ACE HONORED
It is particularly pleasing to nuie the international
League of ^ Aviators, widen Aecentiy met in Paris, an
nounced whom it regaidec. as the most significant flyer
m each nation during 11128, and that Carl Ben Eielson,
Alaska s pioneer ac e, was selected for the United States.
Eielson f- ■ the Arctic "nth Sir George Hubert Wilkins;
both have just completed flights in Graham Land in the
Antarctic.
Lore’s a new one for Alaskan photographers: Pho
tographers with a recent expedition in the Rockies wore
white costumes with horns and whiskers while stalking
mounts! ' oats with their cameras. The disguise was of
aid in ' a the men to ar-rv-mpn animals, which
are exeeprlU^Iv nnd rtWor'U to nWngraph. We

Eastern Montana has the area test range of temper
ature of any section of the United States. Cattle and
horses get so plastered with mosnuitees on the Yellow- i
stone river bottoms that you can’t tell the color of the
critter. If you think. Alaska is a tough place to live, laugh
that off.
A belated joke concerns fhe o* a Christmas
tree by prohibition agents who thought it was a ni~hti
club hostess.
