Sometimes, as was the case last year, thirty years pass between trips, and still they stop in at Kimr to flavor the conversation with many “remember whens.” Mrs. Hazel Kirmse, owner of the curio and jewelry shops that have had their share in making Alaska famous for tourists, is in Seattle visiting her sister, Mrs. J. F. Ma- lony. In a couple of weeks she wi go on to California to spend the winter as usual. The first Kirmse's was established in 1899 in Skagway, and those were the days when Mrs. Kirmse and her late husband traveled by their own boat from one Indian hamlet tc another to buy curios from the In- dians. In Sitka the shop is called “The Sign of the Russian Bell,” and there, of course, the curios have a Russian influence. ‘What do tourists buy mostly when they want to take souvenirs home to the East and South? Mrs. Kirmse says that ivory carvings of animals are the most popular, with small totem poles coming in for second place. Mrs. Kirmse has managed the shops (she recenily sold the one in Juneau) for the past 25 years. Her son, John Kirmse, manages one of the shops for her. They spend their summers at their home in Skagway (she has lived in Alaska since 1893, being brought up in Juneau) and their winters from October to May, in California.
