amounts to nothing. The Valley
of 10,000 Smokes has become
so dead and is so inaccessible
that it is useless. Aniakchak is ac
cesible, wonderful, and of varie
ty enough to satisfy the most
critical. It is precisely the won
derful variety that necessitates
our second trip into the region.
We found tropical orchids, ferns
and numberless flowers on its
grassy meadows. The colors in
obsidian cliff are worthy of min
ute examination, while the lava
flow’s nearly are worthy of a
special trip in themselves.
“What chiefly astonished East
ern scientists were my pictures
and description of the lower 1,
000 feet of the crater wall show
ing sedimentary strata full of
interesting fossils.
“The mineral springs near the
lake, the minerals being deposit
ed around the fumaroles, and the
large deposits of pumice in place,
these and numberless other fea
tures will make over two months
stay inside the crater next sum
mer only too short.
“I could well imagine a thrifty
Tyrolese or Swiss Alpine village
bodily transported into Aniak
chak Crater and turning it into
a great factory for the manufac
ture of interesting curios. They
could tap the steam vents for
power and heat, and harness the
waterfalls for light and turn the
lake into a beautiful resort.
With the Steamer Starr
service a fine harbor, ca
Hook Bay, could be used for
Pacific Ocean sea port and fi
there an easy route leads t
the imposing black mounta
thru Blue Violet Canyon to
Meshik Lake flats into Pie
Bear Creek, and thence thro
the eastern Gates into the gi
crater. An airplane has six m

QUAKE ROCKS TOWN
What Oldtime residents des
cribe as one of the heaviest
earthquakes to have been felt in
Seward in 20 years, struck at
5:31 a. m. today. The quake ap
peared to have lasted for at
least 25 seconds duration with
a distinct north to south move
ment. As far as is known, there
was no damage reported. From
Anchorage tha report said the
shock there was particularly
strong but in Fairbanks, it was
entirely unnoticed.
The scrap pile is the largest
copper mine in the world.

LUCKIES are always
kind to your throat
Everyone knows that sunshine
mellows—that’s why the "TOASTING"
process includes the use of the Ultra
Violet Rays. LUCKY STRIKE —the finest
cigarette you ever smoked, made of
the finest tobaccos — the Cream of
the Crop—THEN—"IT’S TOASTED."
Everyone knows that heat purifies
and so "TOASTING"—that extra, secret
process—removes harmful irritants that
cause throat irritation and coughing.

The advice of jiottr physician is:
Keep out of doors, in the open air,
breathe deeply; take plenty of exer
cise in the mellow sunshine, and have
a periodic check-up on the health of
your body.
