The Challenge of the Yukon! The Wonder Dog King, swift distance, strongest of Eskimo lead dogs, blazes the trail through storm and snow for Sergeant Preston, as he meets the Challenge of the Yukon! Sergeant Preston was typical of the small band of Northwest-Motted Police, who preserved law and order in a new Northwest country,

with a greed for wealth and power led to frequent violence and bloodshed. But in spite of the odds against them, Sergeant Preston and his wonder dog king met that challenge, and just as rule triumphant.

The two young people standing outside the cabin were holding hands as they looked into each other's faces, oblivious of the penetrating cold. Laura, honey. Sometimes when I look at you, you're so beautiful. I... I can't even put it in words.

Is that so, Mr. McDonne? When you better have words ready when you go inside. What? Dad's in there. Good. And I'll speak to him right away. Paul, do you think you're sure? Sure. I'll just go in and say to him that I want to marry his daughter.

Easy as that. I can hardly believe that you will. I will if he'll give his consent. Come on. I want to get this over with. I didn't close the door. I didn't hold a cold in.

Mr. Lawson. There, there, there. And over further fire. You'll never get warm standing there rubbing your hands together here. Let me help you with the mackin' off. Thank you, Paul. Mr. Lawson, uh, I, uh, you know what, John, you mind?

Well, I don't know exactly how to say it. I, uh, well, sir, I'd like to have your consent to marry your daughter. What? I know I'm not good enough for, but I'll do everything I can to make her happy.
