Delights of An Alaskan Summer.
"That summer in Alaska was one of
3the most delightful in my life. Re~
veille was at 7 o'clock. after when
we had an hour's target practice and
an hour's detail work. Detail work
included cleaning up the barracks and
grounds, helping the cook prepare
food, unloading boats and such work.
Ordinarily only three men were on
suard duty. After the two Mount
work, the rest of the day was our own. ,
in the winter an hour of drill and sit-
ting up exercises in the post gymna-
sium replaced the target practice.
Also. in the winter, snow shovelingr
about the post became a part of detail
work.
“But—to get back to the summer—-
we would go hurrying in the after-
noons, gathering buckleberries and
salmon berries. The huckleberries '
are fully twice the size. of any i have
(vet seen in the States. The salmon
berries resembles a Ied raspberry J
very much and are twice as lat-get as!
a garden strawberry. It takes no time
to pick a basketi’ul of them.
