' Your nose can be snapped off if you expose it much. If you exen yourself your lungs wilF rot. The trees will split with reports like cannon-shots. If you open the front door a dense fog will come in, and stay there until "thawed out." "I've see. it go down to 73 below," said Cotter, one of the most experienced sourdoughs in the nrthwest, "but even 65 be low is unusual weather. I was driving a team of dogs, and when we reached borne we found five of them were walking Bttff-legged. Their legs had been frozen, and we had to shoot them." Frank Dorbandt, Robert Reeves and other well-known fliers say the cold Is hard on aviation. "You don't dare shut off the motor," Reeves said, "for fear it will freeze, so landings are diffi cult. It's like coming down with the motor on in a bed of loose sand, the snow is so dry. Frost has to be brushed off the wings with whiskbroom." Generally, nnless there is a blizzard, the phenomena, of -65 are the same as those ot lesser temperatures. But Alaskans are resentful ot the phrase "the ' frozen north" because it isn't always cold there. "I have been In the Yukon valley," said James P. O'Neill, veteran newspaperman from the far north, "when the grass was green, the flowers blooming and the steamboats chugging up the river, and It looked like the up per Mississippi valley."
