A dies begun in 1929 led Dr. Mar- shall to Wiseman last year and he remained there from the middle of August until when he left to return home. In he will work up his data on tree growth and distribution at the nor- thern timberline. will also complete a map of 12,000 square miles of country from the Alatna River across to the Middle Fork of the Koyukuk River, which, aside from those two streams and the John River, been a geological blank. Followed Numerous Rivers During his stay in the North Dr. Marshall followed 10 of the 15 rivers ‘in the Koyukuk drainage north. of the Arctic Circle to their sources by horse packing, packing, dog sledding or boating. An interesting fact he discov- ered was that tree growth in the Arctic is similar to growth far- ther south in that trees grow in the night time and shrink in the day time. It was thought possible there might be a variance due to the light nights but growth fol- lows the same cycle ‘as elsewhere. “The last year in the Koyukuk has been the best year I've ever put in, and that's saying a lot, for I've always had a good time” said Dr. GIENTIST HIS Region Are Happy desire to continue forestry stu- Veneta Belle P-tterson (above), a few weeks ago,| 17, of Mrs. Carrie Simmons, nn trial at Lebanon, Ind. for the poison murder of one of her young daughters, stopped eating the pic- nic sandwich she was enjoy! when she bit into and diuovert" » capsule, which later was found 10 contain strychnine, according to authorities.

High Order of Civilization “Furthermore, I came to regard the civilization on the Koyukuk as the highest I have yet encoun- tered during a bit of knocking around- among varied civilizations of the Outside. For I have never known a group of people any- where who were on the average as happy as my ‘friends to the north, and happiness would ‘seem to be the true measure of civilization. “Really, I think the Outside world could take quite a num- ber of valuable lessons from the Koyukukers—lessons more - import- had previously back L T T Why Business Is Good With Us Check these prices.against your mail erder remember you cannot get “CRANE,” “KOHLER” or “STAN- DARD” FIXTURES from the mail order house. 2.part Cement Laundry Tray Complete Bath Room Outfit .

WE THANK YOU CLITHERO AND HAYES ALLOWED THEIR LIBERTY |Salvagers of Lslander Gold Freed on Recognizance and Proceed South ‘Russell Clithero and Capt. C. A. Hayes, arrested early this week at Ketchikan, ,charged with viola- (ting the Alaska Game Law, have been released on their own recog- | nizance by United States Commis- sloner W. . Arnold, Ketchikan, and are enroute to Seattle, accord- ing to advices received at the office of United States Attorney here. They have agreed to return here, at a date unspecified, to face the charges, it was said, but no bond was required of them. | Clithero and Hayes, who have | been in charge of operations at the old Islander wreck, were accused of taking and possessing deer out |of season. They are alleged to have killed a number of deer dur- |ing the summer and fed them to | men in their crew. { Members of the crew, it is under- stood, reported the matter to the Alaska Game Commission. Definite dates are given on which each man is alleged to have killed deer on Admiralty Island and taken them to camp to feed the working force. A dispute over whether the crew had wages coming them is under- stood to have led to the revelations of game law violations. The men, it is reliably reported, were denied a settlement when Clithero and Hayes got ready to leave for the south. The workmen claimed that they were promised wages, but that no definite figure was fixed at the time they went to work. Clithero and Hayes are reported to have said they had not hired the men to work for wages. They claim to have picked up four or five men who were unable to obtain employ- ment, telling them that they would be provied with board and lodging, only, and that nothing was said about payment of wages. At any rate, when they were preparing to go south, the crew demanded a set- tlement which was not forthcoming. Some of the crew then reported the alleged violations of the Alas- ka game law. — ant than how to .bulld 80-story of- fice buildings or how to clean up a million dollars on the stock ex- change. Economic Independonce “They might learn, tirst how hap- py it makes intelligent men to be economically independent, how fun- damental it is to devise some eco- nemic order in which any man who wants to make a living can make it. They might learn of the rare value of personal ltberties, of the freedom to say and do whatever one chooses. They might appre- ciate how many worries and cares are removed when a man no long- er feels obliged to live up to out- worn - traditions he secretly de- spises. “In the midst ‘of all the racial prejudices of the Outside world, sulng for possession of a engagement ring by the | fexand Ass)rciate” Press Photo Mrs. Enrico Caruso (right), widow of the celebrated tenor, shown as she testified in New York'court in a suit brought Dorothy Russell Calvit (left), daughter of Lillian R merald and diamond ring which she s: longed to her mother.
