It was brought from the Queen Charlotte Islands off the British Columbia coast and special railway cars had to be constructed to haul it in one piece through the mountains. It Is probably the most photographed totem pole in the world, almost every visitor to Jasper Park being photographed beside it. It weight i’/, tons and is 65 feet high. It took the Indians 2 years to ejrVf.Ji/' ' state, came a wire to Governor Gardner from the new Democratic Governor-elect, which is worth quoting: “In my campaign for Governor, I urged that Iowa follow the lead of North Carolina and reorganize our State government. “I was elected on that program and with me a Democratic legisla ture necessary to put through the necessary legislation. “A dinner has been arranged for members of the Legislature on the evening of January 9. We wish very much to have you as the one and only speaker. “These earnest men want you to tell them what you did in North Carolina and how. Will you please come out and do this for us?” Governor Gardner hesitated on ly long enough to find if he could reach the Iowa city in time after he gets out of office here January 5, and accepted. Col. T. L. Kirkpatrick, Senator elect from Mecklenburg County, has written a friend in Raleigh that he thinks “the wise thing for th eLegislature of 1933 to do is to balane the budget, levy only so much tax as is necessary to main tain the efficiency of government and credit of the State and adjourn and go home.” This memory of the hectic five months in 1931 and the “temper” of the peopls of the State, will add to the belief that the 1933 body will finish its work and adjourn Low Round Trip Fares To NORFOLK -d PORTSMOUTH FOR ALL TRAINS FRIDAY AND SATURDAY AND SUNDAY MORNING TRAINS DURING DECEMBER, JANUARY, FEBRUARY and MARCH—Good Returning Monday.
