Getting Ready For Winter In Alaska The home we had chosen for tis inter was a squat cabin -e"ith ane ten-by-twelve room and a six fot wide outer roam lo0cally referred ta as a "parch." We had rented it wheni we hlad came ta- Unalakleet the springý before ta make, arrangemnents for the present movie praject. WYe had paid $75 for the year. and Our Eskim-o landiord had tried ta re- f1und $5 o)f that becauise hie feit the amouint in excess af value. Our chloice of the siallest cabin in t 'he village was beyond the understandinIg of aur native friends. "Do Hose" anc of themn ,called it. The'e was no douibt Fred "lost face" in bringing his wife ta suich ai plaice, especiajlly with storey-and-a-half houses, copied after the quarters at the nearby Federal Aviation Agency Station, available. Stili, it h-ap)- pened ta be exactly wvhat we wanted. Tt was picturesquel- and, maore important, authentîc. Tt had, in fact, beeri built -nd lived in by Eskimos before its last accu- pancy by a prospectar. 1[t would be easy - much easier - ta h-eat than the larger houise.s. Withi its god-bOankad walls, it seemed not only substantial but harmonious with the cau-ntry. We gave it the name "i-nkro, eaning "'thcssmallest," and moved in..,. There ,%-ïs a table nailed ta the wall under the south ,vindow, a bench and twao top heavy hand- made stools and a wxa5hstand. Ta tuis aur landlord added an aid Yukon stave with a firebox about the size of anc shoe box atap an- other. Missing, howcver, weret the firebricks protecting thc tiny aven framn the firebox. Our fir-st acquisition had been & fifty gallon drurn for holding water. We realized the limita- tions of aur new home whien thie dr-um proved toa wicfar thed door and it had been nccessary ta remaove a wvindaw ta bring it in.I To the drumi we addcd a piywoad cover and a bueket and dipper on, top of that. Next, a bed ha(! been rented for the year for $10. it -wýas a single iran cat with the limes of an accupied hmok but by supplcmeniting the sag with aur sleeping bag we made 't passalbly comfartable. , There had been difficulty get- ting this piece of furniture in, tao. Nlowonder- with six small children crowded inside ta watch. We had sent them aoutdaars where thley hlad clustered at the windaw only ta scatter like quai! when Fred turned suddenly in their direction, The washstand we had equipped with a basin, the neces- sary "catch bucket" and a miýrrar Fred had ta crauch ta look into because af the low pitch of the roof. This was tic extent of aur fîx- ing-up the spring before and thus is what we had came back ta. Naw aur taskz was ta mnake it, as comnfortable as passible for the long narthern winter. - Fram "The Howlý of the Malamute: The Stary of an Alaskan Winter," by Sara Machietanz.
