made our patrons our friends, and the safe
guarding and transportation of their ship
ments to stations on our line, to their entire
satisfaction is our ambition.
During the month of May the season of
river navigation will augment our rail serv
ice, and freight and passenger travel will
receive the benefit of our experience.
Trains will connect with all sailings on

LINDBERGH
By S. LINDBLAD
Seward, Alaska
A flier had crossed our Continent’s
width,
Alighted in New York announcing:
“To Paris I go and that very soon,”
Such words slight attention arous
ing.
When ready, he went,
Commotion, tumult.
- He could not be bent,
Completion, result.
His name became known as lightning
does strike,
Details coming early and late.
We soon were assured that before us
there stood
An image of man that was great.
As Vikings of yore on the crest of the
waves
Did lead in the boldest of sailings,
So as an American Viking just
spanned
An ocean; he knew not of failings.
Alone, he was first;
He is of the air.
All records he burst,
This youth keen and fair.
An idol abroad as an idol at home,
His deed is a gift to all earth.
His trial was fierce, but he stood it, he
won,
Quite proof in his mettle, his worth.
When clouds and ill winds gave their
' warnings, serene,
He proved an all around master.
Through sleet he did plough, but of
calmness supreme,
He rallied his thoughts so much
faster.
All stunts of a flight,
Comparing, do pale.
He rose to his height,
Below raged the gale,
breath did not gasp for its oxy
gen's need. %
He fitted the wheel to the storm.
When danger had passed, he did
lower the run,
Knew well, when he had to conform. ■
The blue of the sky and the blue of
the sea!
Through space the machine he was
speeding,
Dividing "with it all the chances he
had,
How nicely the two were proceeding.
Unique was the trip.
This marvelous boy
Was steering his ship
In fanciful joy.
Expert in his judgment, no stop, not
a hitch,
He landed where landing was set.
All folks did he charm, the wide world
him adored,
No wonder he gladly was met.
For hours, thirty-three, all his nerves
were at work.
He needed no rest on arrival.
Fame, honor was his, but some stiff
ness as well.
Most wonderous was his revival.
Huge jubilant crowds
On shoulders did sway
This star from the clouds
In any old way.
And he fitted in with a sun shiny
smile,
While thanking, yet holding his own.
The leap was with him a professional
step,
Prepared for, he simply had flown.
Chorus:: “We can,” we be saying
Of him and his plane.
In duties obeying
They live not in vain,
And him we do hail. A giant, a
scout!
All air-navigation took strides
strides through his f&ute.
