Ross, of Mayo, Y.T.. wha recently passed through Winnipeg en route to his old home in Mlnnedosa. He says the Yukon climate Is very much the same as that cn the prairies, the residents otfMayo wearing similar clothes as prairie citizens and drive their cars all the year around. Of course. It does get somewhat chilly at times, admitted Dr. Ross. Two years.ag) they had ten days when the official temperature was 69 below zero but such cold snaps are exceptional. Mayo itself is a mining town, being the headquarters of the Treadwell Yukon Company which, last year, brought out ore to ths value of nearly 12.000.000 from their mines In the district. Although It Is 300 mUes from the narrow gauge railway which connects Whlteborse city with Skagway, the town ; has a weU equipped hospital, moving i picture theatre and a good golf course. j Those seeking a diversity of amuse- meats can step from a bridge party to : big game hunting In the woods around ' the town, where nothing lies between them and the Hudson Bay except un- j tamed wilderness.
