The Challenge of the Yukon! And King! The Wonder Dog King, swiftest and 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 the new Northwest country agreed 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 justice ruled triumphant.

In Baker's Dale, a small settlement crowded with miners and trappers, the lucky and the unlucky men gathered in a group at the side of the main street. Sure! Just look at the paper here! Look at it!

Here it's the greatest show ever to come to the North, Chondre. I can't believe it. See you in the believing. You'll have a chance to see it. Next week it's coming. Flora Bell the Dancing Bear.

A bear? Dancing the music. Well... Yeah? It says here that's what it does. Art McCaffery the Bears owner plays the hand organ. This reporter actually saw the Bear dance. McCaffery's touring the Yukon with this unusual bear.

In Fort Dunning a week later, Two clerks stood behind the wire windows of the town's bank. You almost finished with those entries, Walt? Mmm, almost. Well, I'm through. I've got enough here to keep me busy for another hour.

Oh. Well, if you're going to be here anyway, then maybe you wouldn't mind if I go over and see that dancing bear everybody's been talking about. Oh, I don't mind. Go ahead. I'd kind of like to see it myself, but then somebody's got to stay.
