George E. Moore of Worcester,
Mass., was through Cordova to
Fairbanks and then out via Sew
ard in 1928. He was accompanied
by Mr. Wm. Whipple, a prominent
retired business man of Worces
ter. Mr. Moore wrote me shortly
after his return, part of which is
as follows;
“I received your welcome letter
September 13th and I shall keep
it, first for two reasons, because
it came from you and because it
came from Alaska, the country I
love. I don’t believe there is a
day passes but I think of the trip.
I was invited out to dinner and
to tell of my Alaska trip and a
great many came to the house to
hear about the trip, many were
from out of the city.
“I very highly prize the picture
of the dogs you sent. I sure want
to come back to Alaska again but
think it is doubtful.”

HISTORIC IMPLEMENTS,
CURIOS FOUND IN
WESTWARD ISLANDS
Years of erosion by lapping,
surging seas along the shoreline
of an island in the Shumagin
group to the Westward, have re
vealed to modern eyes signs of an
ancient Alaskan civilization, re
ports Captain I. M. Hofstad, of
the MS Lark, who, accompanied
by his two sons, Arthur and Har
old, has returned to Seldovia from
the Westward district with the
story of his amazing find, says
the Seldovia Herald.
What gives evidence of a popu
lous settlement was discovered by
the party when an investigation
was made of a curious lumpy and
streaky formation on an embank
ment. Some digging was done,
bringing to light an assortment
of implements of various kinds,
made of stone, bone and ivory.
There were flint spearheads, stone
lashing, cross pieces for tee hand
hammer heads, grooved for handle
led drills and a curious looking
device that appeared to have been
used to create flint ignition. The
ivory ware had deteriorated into
an advanced stage of sponginess.
The main reason for the West
ward trip was to perform assess
i ment work on copper and zinc
'claims. He considers his holdings
| good, and if, and when, the
price of copper mounts to some
thing like a normal status, be
lieves he can operate at a profit.'

MONEY THIS SEISON
More gold than has been recov
ered in the Atlin mining district
for many years will be taken out
this year, according to H. M.
Fraser, consulting engineer, who
returned to Juneau after a two
weeks’ trip of inspection in the
Atlin district, says the Juneau
Empire.
“I saw ground on Spruce Creek
that was producing approximately
$7 a foot on bedrock,” Mr. Fraser
said. “Many of the operators
have been doing ‘dead’ work for
the past four or five years, and
their operations this season have
justified the money and labor that
was expended. I should judge
the combined clean-up on Boulder,
Spruce, Ruby and McGee creeks
will exceed $200,000 this season.”
JUNEAU VANDALISM
Vandalism at the Juneau Recre
ation Park since the end of the
1931 baseball season has resulted
in considerable damage to the
property, it was made known by
J. L. Gray, chief of the Juneau
Volunteer Fire Department, which
bought and developed the plant,
and maintains it for the benefit
of the community. Damage has
been done to the grandstand,
drinking fountain^ and property
house where the surplus store of
baseballs, etc., are'kept. * And in
addition to the' property, 14 new
league baseballs were stolen, says
the Juneau Empire.
“If you had one day to live, how
would you spend it?”
"Laughing at my creditors.”
