glaciers mark the hours by their col
ors, which vary with the time of day,

in lavender against the cerulean bowl
of he northern sky. At dark the gla- j
cers become a livid white, streaked j
with tongues of black.

Oastler, who described the tempera-;
ture of Alaska as grossly misrepre- j
sented. So far from being frigid, Fair-!
