DELIVERS MIS TREES
One hundred Christmas trees were
delivered to Wetward communities
by the S. S. Starr which returned to
port yesterday from a fast round-trip
marked by a fhir voyage, the best
since last January. There was little
snow on the water-line along the
coast what little snow there was being
confined to the foothills.
Incoming passengers on Captain
Johanisen’s sturdy vessel comprised
Albert Kraft, D. Austin, M. Goldstein,
A. J. Most, Axel Carlson, Edwin Carl
son, Evelyn Carlson, John Cannon,
and Edwin W. Hunnlcutt.
The next sailing Westward of the S.
S. Starr will be following the arrival
af the S. S. Alameda from Seattle. The
Alameda will sail North from Seattle
on January 5 and will arrive in port,
probably around the 11th. The Starr
is expected to get under way for the
Westward on the 12th or 13th of Jan
uary.
GHINCHILLI IS SCARCE
FOR EVER ONE COAT
LONDON, Dee. 22. (/P)—There are
not enough chinchilla skins in the
world at present to make a fashiona
ble fur coat, according to a London
court furrier.
When skins are obtainable it is
difficult to match them perfectly, he
says. It takes years for a furrier to
collect sufficient skins to make even
a coat. Chinchilla is silver gray in [
I
the lighter shades, and has a white!
streak in the middle of the pelt. The!
fur is tthe softest among the fur tribe,
almost as soft as swansdown or an
gora wool. Consequently it does not
wear well, and has to be cared for
like a delicate plant. {
