WHOSE DOWNHEARTED
There may be greater countries of opportunity than
Alaska but if pressed to name one we would certainly
be forced to the wall following the reports that have
come in recently from Nuka Bay, Canyon Creek and
Valdez Creek, to say nothing of a five-year record clean
up at Nome, big pans at the head of the Kuskokwim, a
new strike on the Koyukuk, heavy hardrock and dredg
ing cleanups at Fairbanks, the Copper River country and
bigger hard rock operations directly North of Seward.
This is a record year that if checked ud should
convince even the warped and confirmed pessimist who
gets vour “Nannv” bv crying about the days of yore.
. There are days of yore, it is true, but the davs of
the present are so rich and promising that it is difficult
to fipnre how anyone in this glorious country should be
down-hearted.
THE UNKIND WORD
There is no mistaking the deep significance of this
expression from Walter F. Meier, member of the Grand
Forum of the Elks:
- . * .1 cuts deener than the sword. Its
>un \ t >o, is much more difficult to heal than is any
wound Morvy a r*erscr\ will s’ eak the unkind

“Show me a people without mines and I will show
you a people deep in the mire of poverty and a thousand
years behind the progress of civilization,” states Repre
