All gold recovered either during the training course, or on these prospecting trips, was pro-rated among the members of the camps. ( Practically the only difference in t.he _plan which the Canadian Gov- ernment is now operating and that outlined by Commissioner Stewart is that the Alaskan official recom- mended sending an experienced prospector out to accompany the prospecting parties. “It isn't so much a matter of Whether. these camp-trained young- sters _get along all right with- out a veferan along” sald Mr. Stewart this morning, “but unless sométhinig of this kind is done a wel.lth of practical knowledge and uuflnhg. one on Naniamo River, one..on.Sumner Creek, a third on - it MODE S Z‘/?C’ MOMENT M liere’s Characters Inspire Fall Hats . ¥or the modish’ modern, Lilly Dache designs a black felt- hat whose lines were inspired by the gay splash of multi-colored ostrich spills down its tall peaker crown and a chenille veil is draped to fall in short tails in the back. local information will be lost for- ever.

WEATHER sYNOPSIS High barometric pressure prevailed this morning from Barrow southward to the Hawaiian Islanis, there being two crests, one over the Seward Peninsula and another over the northeastern portion of the North Pacific Ocean. ' A storm is prevailing over the Aleu- tians. This general pressure distribution has been attended by pre- cipitation over the Aleutians, the scuthern Bering Sea, the upper | Tanana Valley, and over Southeas: Alaska and by generally fair weather over the remainder of th: field of observation. It was cooler last night over Southeast Alaska and Yukon Valley, a minimum temperature of 34 having been recorded at Juneau. |Read the Clctssmed Ads in THE EMPIRE' U.
