1925 was a big year for my homeland of Alaska, not yet a state at this time. The “Serum Run To Nome” was started for transporting lifesaving medicines via dog sled across the Arctic to ease the diphtheria outbreak on the northwest coast. And Charlie Chaplin released his silent motion picture “Gold Rush.” The flapper trend was in full swing, here at the peak of ‘the roaring twenties,’ and popular music that blended jazz with ragtime was booming.

My favorite song from that era: Gene Austin with “Yes Sir, That’s My Baby.”
