"Santa will come in a diving suit this year," he observes. Continuing, Baker says: "More important, but of course unnotified by our con-temporaries, is the fact that this is the last fortnight of the first half of the 20th century, and if Ketchikan had not set itself a record on this auspicious occasion, thousands of the ' finest sourdoughs of the north those who trod the uncharted trails beneath the midnight sun of '98, might have gone to their maker without the satisfaction of having seen the year of the mighty big rain, or, in Eskimo, the puk puk precipitation.
