The Challenge of the Yukon! And King! And you Husky! 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, 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.

It was Molly Gordon's 50th birthday, and her cabin in three forks was brightly lighted for the occasion. Sergeant Preston, Lucky Martin, Molly's daughter Jane, and Bill Anderson, Jane's fiance, sat around the stove relaxing after Molly's birthday dinner.

And now that I've opened all my presents for you, I think it's time I gave you yours. you yours. How up presents wife. Molly it's your birthday. I know but after a woman has had 50 birthdays I think it's time she reversed things. I'm giving my friends presents to celebrate living this long. Oh, here's yours. Lucky. Oh, thanks. Molly and your Sergeant Preston. Thank you Molly.

And Bill. Thank you. I gave Jane hers this afternoon. What's up with Molly? What about this one, Molly? Oh, that's Ned. Too bad he couldn't get home. I should think he'd have remembered this job now, Jane.

Even though he's just your stepfather, you mustn't criticize. Please, dear. I'm sorry. Molly! Read, mitten! Oh, so these are fine. And she knows that they're one of those. This is good, and these are wonderful.

I'm sorry that they all had to be read and look alike, but that was the only yarn I could get. Ned's all the same. But you'll all be wearing them under your fur one, so they won't show anyway.
