Cove, -on Chichag Island, and come Into the city to transact, business that could not be put 6ff any longer. And, they are not tog happy about it, either. Bill | sighed and said: “We were M)'. there . for’ 10 ‘years once coming in.” The W. C. Grahams are hntel people who said “they could nov resist the call of the wild,” and, so, after years of trekking between Alaska and the States, they decided to make their home in the country. They did not care for the “big cities” of Southeast Alaska and decided to be true pioneers. So, with two months’ supply of grub and 85 cents in coin, they left, one day, 11 years ago, for Gull Cove. Thejr farming venture has paid off well. They sell jelly to cus- the 48 states, made ;::n:“ vag mwbmm and lagoon ' berries, They.. all their own vegetables, aRd- i of their meat | comes from the -W deer - that abound in the ins of Chi- chagef, end from a“flock of chick- ens Mrs, Graham takes care ul Ne._ “Plcnte” Bill said, pride shining in his blue ‘eyes: “We work hard. It isn’t any - picnic, but me and the! wife get along just like a couple of kids.” When they return to Gull Cove they will have a deck-load of lum-| in| ber on the Pelican for use building & nine-room lodge that they started sometime ago. This is the start of their post-war plans. In addition to the lodge, the Gra- hams want to build a small hand- pack cannery and put in a saw- mill. They already have the ma- chinery for the mill Besides their house, farm build- ings and general store, Bill has a emokehouse 10 feet square and 25 feet high. That is how he got his name. Years ago he built a smoke- house and became famous for the smoked salmon he turned out Enterprise For Son Bill is now 72 and fiis "wife is 70 They are starting these new enter- prises, not for themselves, but for their son, Chester, who at present along .with millions of other Am- erican boys, is fighting our enemies across the seas. Chester is aboard a minesweeper in the Philippines Graham said: “We've got to have Jjobs for these boys when they re- turn. Maybe Chester will want to bring along some of his buddies to Gull Cove.” Talking of the future of his little settlement, 26 miles from Pelican City, another new settlement in Southeast Alaska, and one which the Grahams have never visited, Bill said the strawberries grow just behind the wild salt water grass and, right behind the strawberri between them and the timber, grow the lagoon berries.

Grew's statement drew unusual !force from the fact that the time for Nazis to flee Germany if they are ever going to do 50 must now be close. The Acting Secretary declared: “This Government is not satisfied with the attitude of a number of neutral governments. We will not be satisfied unless we have un- squivocal assurance from neutral governments that they will refuse admitteice to their countries to any Axis war criminals and deport any that might enter the countries il- Jegally.” aFIRST T ARMY MEN NEARING Ralph Williams, Mrs. Helen 'I‘ollef-, GIANT DAM WITH THE U4 S.
