The following is practically a literal translation
from the Russian taken from the manuscript of Fr.
Gedeon, priest-monk of the Alexandro-Nevsky Cathe
dral, Moscow, Russia, and was written in Kodiak be
tween 1804 and 1807. It has never before appeared in ;
print.
Bubbles from the Vat
• Continued from yesterday
A refreshing bladder full of this
fragrant, cooling drink aroused
sluggards to geniuses; the Sea Lion
Shuffle and the Brown Bear Hug—1
three popular dances—without stop- ;
ping. It was said, men under it’s!
influence went as far as kissing j
their mothers-in-law, which even1
in those days was considered no
small-matter.
It was similar in color to Sand
wich Island ‘Moon’ (Okolehow),
tasted like white wine and sparkled
like disciple of science, perforce
has to sample many brews, other
wise these precious lost arts would
be lost to posterity, and a world
without barduk would be dismal,
indeed. A votre sante\
During the dances jovial older
people, by all means, tried to make
the dancers laugh, it being a cus
tom that if the dancers laughed
during the dance, fathers or hus
bands had to pay fines. 4‘I was pre
sented wtih a lautak by a father
and a hair seal by a husband for
violations of the custom; these ar
ticles were later presented to the
poor, for which I was greatly prais
ed by the older people present; in
general, all fines collected were dis
tributed to the poor and needy.
Aaskans, from times immemorial,
have been noted for their generosi
ty and open-hearted hospitality.”
Gedeon.
These igrushkas lasted all night
and at the wind up of the festivi
tie, the donar of the dance present
ed his friends with parkas, amber,
beads or sulki—ear rings which r
pierced the lower lobes of the ear'
an dextended in a chain to the
lower lip. penetrating the lip lateral
to the symphisis, and was carved
out of one solid piece of ivory, aech
link in chain. The catch inside the
lip was T-shaped and convex and of
magnificent workmanship.
(Continued tomorrow)
A mixed train is due to arrive in
the local yards this evening from i
points north and west.
"Didn't I call ‘em^righfc?” asked
Sourdough Bill, veteran Aleut, re

ed as he staggered his weary way
homeward.

KENNETH W. SIMONS, EDITOR OF THE BISMARCK
(N. DAK.) TRIBUNE, SAYS:—
m
That if everyone just folded up and assured the world
that things were never going to be any better, the end of
the world, so far as most of us are concerned, would be
just around the corner.
We hear a great deal these days about business turn
ing the corner. The fast is that we make our own corners
and do our own turning, both as individuals and as a nation.
It the first man who ever made a stone axe told him
self it couldn’t be done, than probably would still be eating
berries, herhs and products of the sail instead of meat. If
fear had prevented the first use of fire, mankind Still
would inhabit only the tropical countries.
If the man wh oinvented the wheel had told himself it
was an impossible proposition, we would still be carrying
on our backs everything we use.
What everyone needs today, every business man,
preacher, teacher, doctor, lawyer and scribe, is more exer
cise. By that I don’t mean the kind one gets from sitting
and bellyaching, but the kind that has always produced
results in the past.Exercise of whatever God put between
our ears and the exercise of which comes from good work.
We need faith. How can anyone doubt the future of
this country and still call himself a good American? If the
country is going to the dogs either morally, physically or
financially, a lot of us are going to be in tough shape. If
it does go to the dogs, it will be our fault.
