Post returned to her home in Juneau on the Alaska after spending nearly six months visiting in California with former Alaskan friends. She left here early in December of last year, and since has spent much of the time in Los Angeles. Numerous Alaskans were visited by her in the south, among them Dr. and Mrs. L. O. Sloane and Mr. and Mrs. William Casey, Jr. Shortly before Mrs. Post start- ed north she made a visit to the Santa Clara Valley where the St. Francis dam disaster occurred early in March, and in reference said the entire valley is a scene of desolatibn. The former beduti- ful canyon is now a mass of ruins, covered with several feet of mud and sand, she added. — e Fada Radio Sets and accessor- fes, Columbia Phonographs and records.
