BETTER TIMES ARE COMING
Don’t be Discouraged!
Don't lose the will to win .... don’t join the pessimists who
see naught but disaster ahead—
During a previous depression, the government had to is
sue paper “Clearing House Certificates” as a substitute for
money. Conditions were just as bad, only we have forgotten.
Prosperity has always followed bad times—this is one of the
laws of business cycles.
Now is the time to substitute the word “Reconstruction” for
"depression.”
Don’t be discouraged. Lend a hand to reestablish confidence.
America will see this through and emerge victorious.
Better times are coming!

SPLENDID PROGRAM
Another splendid program of the
Northern Lighters, sponsored by
the National Grocery Company of

Lighters and was built around a
prize fight between Nicotine, the
colored character and Ole Norsky.
Following the prize fight there was
more entertainment coming from
the Northern Lighters carbaret.

CKULITNA ITEMS
( By Special Correspondent)
The past winter was the tough
est experienced for years and the
latest the snow has stayed since
1919. There were 12 feet of snow
on the level in March and there!
still is plenty of snow from the 1500
foot elevation up. Trappers this
year had to snowshoe out of camp
for six and a half miles on May 30
when as a rule they usually were
able to go out by June 1 without j
snowshoes and only a small drift in
places.
* * * *
Trappers made practically noth
ing on furs the past season, either,
the returns being from two to
three and a half for mink; ermine
25 cents to 50 cents, beaver $6 to
$12. Such prices do not pay, and
it it’s quite likely there will be no
trapping next winter, for it is bet
ter to cabin up and let the fur ani
mals increase again until fur prices j
come up.
Ralph Tuck, geologist of the
Bureau of Mines, attached to the
laska Railroad, who is to study the
country from Chulitna over to
Hidden river, has his camp now
on Lower Pass creek. Dick Tous- j

of horses.

I Millions say
we hit the "nail on the head”
when we asked this question!
OKAY AMERICA!... you wanted
the facts and we’ve given them to
you—even though the truth has shocked
the cigarette trade! Inhaling is the vety
core of all cigarette discussion.
For we all inhale—knowingly or
unknowingly... every smoker breathes
in some part of the smoke he or she
draws out of a cigarette.
Do you inhale? Let other cigarettes
keep an embarrassed silence if they will!
Lucky Strike can openly raise the issue.
Luckies assure you the protection you
want... because certain impurities con
cealed in even the finest, mildest tobacco
leaves are removed by that famous puri
fying process. Luckies created that proc
ess. Only Luckies have it!
