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 1S07. It has never before appeared in
print.

i Continued from yesterday
I The love of Nature and the scene
I she draws is the lure of Anthropol
ogy. And so, he who wanders alone
through caves and caverns, f^nds
it easy to renounce the marts. ‘‘The
following old song was imparted
to me by Alexei Ikuyak, toyon of
Ayakhtalk,” (Jap Harbor)—Gedeon.
(Oldest Alaskan Song)—Aleutian
Favorite Song.
“Apaka anshaklya; aminak ivak
apagaka.
(Grandfather had bidarahs; I'm
looking for aminak)
“Apaka kashklaya; ivakahpagaka
(I am looking for grandfather—
diligently)
‘‘Aganak aknakla.
(Agnak had sea-otters)
“Apaka Kigilyak nakhstchaglya
(Grandfather Kigilyak was a
hunter)
“Apaka Ukhatayak katyakla
(Grandfather Ukhatayak shout
ed)’'.
HH
This was the favorite old song
of the Kodiak natives, sung at
their igrushkas with deep emotion
al feeling, because it mentioned
that: formerly they possessed bi
darahs, but now only an excep
tional toyon owned only a three
hatch bidarca; second, that their
former anayugak, when arriving in
bidarahs at any settlement had
merely to shout and presto helpers
were on hand to carry his bidarahs
and bidarea.3 up on the beach;
third, but now many settlements
! were almost entirely depopulated, j
since the advent of the Russians,
although they never had any epi
demics until 1804.
At 9 or 10 o’clock in the evening
following an igrushka, they all as
sembled in the kaziiim, where thew
were regaled w’itn talkusha and
; blue berries in oil by the women,
! with charming modesty and due
! ceremonies. In return for this
favor, the one in whose honor the
soiree v;as given, reciprocated lat
er on. Favors beget favors.

Advanced Refrigeration
Continually working for the.ad'
vancement of domestic electric re*
frigeration, engineers of Frigidaire
Corporation have made it possible
for this General Motors subsidiary
this year to present a household
refrigerator with many refinements
and Improvements, according to an
announcement by the local repre
sentative. Economy, efficiency and
beauty have been the guiding start
of these engineers and as a result
the Frigidaire of today operates at
much lower cost, freezes more lea
cubes faster, has an interior and
exterior finish of durable white
porcelain-on-steel and provides
more shelf space than before.
