Should the Swedish, Norwegian,
Danish and Finnish population of
coastal Alaska continue to increase
ad present-day English-written
newspapers switch over to one of
Scandinavian languages, then their
might be an opportunity for John
Larson, Swedish linotype operator,
to become a member of one of the
numerous newspaper staffs.
Saturday, young Larson, a mem
ber of the fishing boat Comman
der’s crew, breezed into The Gate
way office and asked: “How’s yances
for a yob, huh?” The editor inform
ed him he would switch jobs with
him but after sizing up the situa
tion, Larson answered: “Nodding
doing. I bane go back haliboot
fishing.”
Larson, however, will be back
after the fishing season and may
winter in Seward. If so and some
day an article apepars in Swedish,
fore-armed is fore-warned.
EARLY WINTER
Those thrifty persons who have
already put up preserves and vege
tables of all kinds and moose and
sheep meat, as well as cords of
fire wood, can afford to look at the
fresh, deep snows which fell during
the night reaching near timber
line, and laugh, “ho! ho!” But not
so others who have failed to re
plenish the larder for the alleged
hard winter facing the country.
“They are all tough”, says the dis
gruntled Oldtimer.” ’’Stuck again,”
murmers the Cheechako.
A grand jury term of court will
be held in Fairbanks October 24.
LOADED WITH DYNAMITE
The SS Denali, of the Alaska
Steamship Company, enroute to
the Port of Seward from the
South, will discharge two tons of
dynamite for local firms, three
carloads for Anchorage and single
carloads for Jonesville, Suntrana
and Wasilla.
GASOLINE SCARCE
SANTIAGO, Chile, Sept. 27, —
Gasoline has become almost as
scarce as gold in Chile since im
porting companies have restricted
the importation to the normal re
quirements and distraught motor
ists are in a sad plight. Paying 35
pesos (normally $4) for four gal
lons of gasoline, few are driving
these days.

Today, a “cat” and a scraper
were on the job at the Seward
Airport, doing their bit in
lengthening the field tdward the
beach, on the south side of the
road. Slopes are being thrown up
on each side so that when'com
pleted, a plane can start at the
beach line, roar up to and across
the road onto the field proper with
ample runway ahead to clear the
trees on the north end in perfect
safety.
Pilot Oscar Winchell, of the Me
Gee Airways, who came over from
Anchorage a week in advance to
have the .work done, hopes to have
the new unit in readiness when
his new Stinson-Detroiter arrives,
which will probably be this week.
Volunteer workers put in a few
hours yesterday assisting in blow
ing a bunch of stumps to smith
ereens and clear other debris away.
It is expected by this small amount
of work that the field will be just
about doubled in length.

"THE SCOURGE OF GOD”
"Nature in the Raw”—as portrayed by
the great painter, Harvey Dunn ... in
spired by the barbaric cruelty of Asia’s
most dreaded plunderer ..." the grass
could not grow where his horse had
passed” ... 433-453 A. D.
—and raw tobaccos
have no place in cigarettes
They are not present in Luckies
... the mildest cigarette
you ever smoked
\
WE buy the finest, the very finest
tobaccos in all the world—but
that does not explain why folks
everywhere regard Lucky Strike as the
mildest cigarette. The fact is, we never
overlook the truth that "Nature in
the Raw is Seldom Mild"—so these
fine tobaccos, after proper aging and
mellowing, are then given the benefit
of that Lucky Strike purifying process,
described by the words—"It’s toasted".
That’s why folks in every city, town
and hamlet say that Luckies are such
mild cigarettes.
“It’s toasted”

"If a man write a better book, preach a better sermon, or make a better mouse-trap than his neighbor, tho he
build his house in the woods, the world will make a beaten path to his door. ”—RALPH WALDO EMERSON.
Does not this explain the world-wide acceptance and approval of Lucky Strike?
