Katz, Alaska represenia- tive of the Northern Pacific Rail- way who believes that to a great extent the country had talked itself into the depression, and that bad times are now behind us. Mr. Katz arrived in Juneau on the Alaska yesterday and will re-| main_here until the Yukon comes North next week, when he will con- tinue his journey to the Imterior. Last year was the first year he had not made an annual trip through the Territory for mnine years, and he is glad to be back again, he says. .Visitors May Come ‘Trangportation companies are enthusiastic about the Chicago fair,” Mr. Katz said. “I was in Chicago ' three weeks ‘ago. The fair will \be ready to open with a bang on June 1. Many of the Bast- erners . visiting the: fair, ‘T believe, will continue their trips to Alas- ka. Low .roundtrip rates will en- couragei travel from the east to the wesb‘coast.and Alaska, as well as from the west: coast to the Fair. Reduced Rates i “Roundtrip rates from Seattle to Chicago «with a 2l-day stopover, are as low :as $60, in coaches only, trip Pullman fares, for the first time, I believe, have been reduced 25 percent. “The Northern Pacific hasn't siackened up a bit in including Alaska in its national advertising, in spite of hard times.

While much information re- garding the ancient Eskimo has| been recorded by early travelers, it is the intention of the Birket- Smith group, by excavation of their villages to fit together a scientific history of the Eskimo. Interesting Territory “Southwestern Alaska is tionally inter ng territory to the soientist,” Dr. Birket-Smith said terday. “It is the southernmost region where the Eskimo is found, and it is here that the Thlinzket Indians of the Southern Coast and the Athabaskans of the Interior meet.” While the Eskimos of the south- ern districts and the n the same culture and a guage, there is still a great dif- ference between them, according to Dr. Birket-Smith, and they are un- able to understand the dialects of one another. Of inte: is the fact that Eskimos of the north coast can understand the Greenlanders. Asked if they agreed with the theory that the Bskimo came to ican continent from Birket-Smith and Miss 4 said that they hoped ave more to say about that upon their return next fall. Earlicr Plans { Mijss deLaguna and Dr. Birkei- £mith planned to make a scientific expedition. to Alaska in 1930. At this time the Danish scientist was engaged in other work and Miss deLaguna’s brother Wallace madsa the trip with her to assist in thg preliminary work neceszary in lo- cating Eskimo village sites where they planned to do their excavat-{ ing Miss deLaguna has re-| Bound excep- region each. year since 1930. Has Done Much Work Dr. Birket-Smith has done ex- tensive archaeological work in| Greenland and the West Hudson Bay district. While in Juneau he spent some time at the Territorial Museum with Father A. P. Kashe- varoff to whom he had a letter of introduction from Peter Freuchen who had traveled with him for| two years with the Rasmussen ex- | pedition which followed the trail! of the Eskimo throuzh Greenland, Alaska and Siberia. Birket-Smith and Freuchen left the expedition in Canada and devoted the rest of their studies to the West Hudson Bay district. His present, trip as head of this International expedi- tion is his first to Alaska. Freuchen is known here as the author of “The E:kimo,” and passed through Juneau to and from Nome where he assisted in the of, and acted in, the film of his Book being made’ by the Metro-Gol i-May- er company. : 2 Birket-Smith and Miss DeLaguna expect to return through Juneau at the end of the summer.

She knows the prices, and gives Mary Lou just enough money, with an extra penny or two, perhaps, to spend for herself. Buying is jus as simple and easy as that because of just one thing—Advertising.
