Now as gun shots echo across the wind, squirts no covered reaches of the Wild Northwest, that challenge of the Yukon. It's Yukon King, swiftness and strong as lead dogs on Northwest, placing the flail for Sergeant Preston of the Northwest Bonnet Police in his relentless pursuit of lawbreakers.

On King Bon, you hushy! Gold, gold, discovered in the Yukon, a stampede to the Klondike in the Wild Race for Riches, back to the days of the Gold Rush, bring you the adventures of Sergeant Preston and his wonder dog, Yukon King, as they meet the challenge of the Yukon.

Even in the glowing warmth of the neat homey cabin, Judy Smith momentarily shivered as she listened to the shrill relentless wind that tore at the door and windows in a fury of frustration. Yet for Judy and for her young husband, Dr. Harvey Smith, the beauty of the Yukon territory not only held a certain fascination, but also offered a haven of refuge that had brought them

peace of mind since they had arrived at Selkirk and moved into the cabin on the outskirts of the Rokka settlement. Judy's attitude of tremulous listening gave way to smiling its cleftency as she heard the stamping of feet outside the door.
