BARROW BREW

When I lived in Barrow, It was damp most of the time and once for eighteen months is was dry. Ikept statistics and was cited as a source in a paper submitted by one of the doctors. Also dental was located in the sambe building as the hospital. The dentist and her husband lived in the same building where I lived. When alcohol is a precious commodity in your community, things can quickly become illegal and scarce. The dental service received a lot of supplies at the hospital in very large boxes. No idea of the contents. I saw the dentist once to have a tooth pulled. Since then all of my wisdom teeth floated forward very nicely. When alcohol is scarce people will turn people in if they do not sell some to them. That is probably what happened to the dentist. Authorities went to the house they renting away from their appartment. Aparently they found 99 carboys of beer on the walls, etc. The couple disappeared from Barrow, she went to dental central. I do not believe the illegal activities received any punishment. Also during the time that Barrow was dry, hoarding happened. Folks who had liquor did not share, not even with family. Currently the town is damp and people who purchase liquor must sequetor it with the mayow who is in charge of a holding warehouse. Then after four days the buyer can claim their goods. Kind of like a waiting period. Mah.... when I lived in Dillingham, you could have a drink with hour dinner. The hospital allso a sleep it off room to keep people from drunk and freezing to death.
