Deer Vanished From Canal
Deer have virtually dis
appeared from the beaches
along the lower reaches of the
Portland Canal, according to
Nick Kristovich, who returned
to town Sunday alft'er a stay of
several weeks at Tombstone
Bay. The absence of the deer
is apparently due to the pres
ence of numerous wolves, who
have driven them back into the
interior, Mr. Kristovich says.
He has resided at Tombstone
Bay more than a decade and
asserts that this is the first
fall season in which he has
been unable to secure a deer.
He and “Shorty” Carlson
hunted for two days but failed
to see a deer or any sign of
their presence. Wolves were
heard on numerous* occasions
but are seldom sighted.
Community Service Held
The first of a contemplated
series of monthly church serv
ices was held at the M. E.
Church Sunday evening, with
Rev. G. A. Hardy, “Inter
national Pastor,” officiating.
The service included excell
ently rendered vocal solos by
Me;-rs. W. D. Smith and Frank
Bowler, of Stewart, a vocal
trio by Misses Thelma Legge,
Lois Winger and Frances Sand
ford, an informal and highly
interesting talk by Dr. Harvey,
and vocal numbers be the con
gregation.
During his address Dr. Har
vey explained the difficulty of
maintaining weekly church
services in Hyder under pres
ent conditions and expressed
the hope that the proposed
monthly services would meet
with favor.
The church service was fol
lowed by a tasty luncheon at
the home of Mrs. Henry W.
Peterson.
Although marked by more
than average attendance, the
gothering was considerably
smaller than could be expect
ed, considering that there is
scarcely anyone in the com
munity wh.ose business .or dut
ies would prevent them from
devoting an hour or so once a
month to helping maintain the
Community services. It is to
be hoped that the next one of
the series will receive greater
interest and be marked by
more generous attendance.
American Smelting and Re
finig Company reported for
the first six months of 1934 3
