I'y the kindness of the Radio S' -
tion men Mrs. I.earn, with i iglit of lie
older gir s, and the Folsoms, had the
very pleasant experience of seeing tie
exercises at Kodiak, a program tin \
had no part in preparing, a rare ex
perience.
The part not planned for was h iv
ing to stay all night because of a ris
ing wind causing a rough sea. It
was unsafe to return to Wood
Island across the hay in the rainy
darkness.
All worn kindly entertained, in
groups, in the homes of Kodiak
friends and the return trip was made
the next day in time for the Christ
mas trees and dinners at home.
The piogram at Kodiak was excel
tionally well rendered and all wh
had a part in it deserve very high I
credit.
