The Nenana district offers oppor
tunities for prospecting, farming, and
trapping that are unequaled in any
other section of Alaska.
Gold placers of known value, close
to Nenana, are producing annually sub
stantial amounts, and there are scores
of streams within the district on which
little or no prospecting has been done.
These streams, until a short time ago
almost inaccessible, are now easily
reached by means of the new Govern
ment Railroad, and undoubtedly soon
will be the scene of much mining ac
tivity.
Farming in the Nenana district has
the advantage of a growing season fully
ten days longer than that of any other
section of Interior Alaska. There is
much desirable land in the district open
to homesteaders, and marketing possi
bilities are being expanded steadily.
Fur-bearing animals of the Nenana
and adjacent districts are noted for the
fine quality of their fur, and trappers
annually bring large numbers of pelts
to Nenana and receive for them higher
prices than are obtained for the average
furs of other districts.
Game of all kinds abounds in the
Nenana district, there are scores of
trout streams easy of access, and the
scenic wonders of the district are un
surpassed. The district is the natural
gateway to Mt. McKinley National
Park, and close’ to Nenana may be
viewed the largest coal ledges in the
world.

resources and possibilities of the Ne

Major Stehlin says he has no idea
what vocation he will take up if:
the war should end over here, but j
he feels certain that he can never; ”

go back to the prosaic duties of a ,,
lifeguard at the beach. That game :
is not exciting enough for a man

WASHINGTON, D. C.—Hamburg
today may be described as an im
posing monument to the dead glories
of the German merchant marine, ac
cording to Consul Francis R. Stew
art, who was detailed by the Ameri
can commission in Berlin to inves
tigate conditions at the former pre
mier German port for that body. A
report from Mr. Stewart detailing
the results of his inquiry has just
reached the department of commerce.
“A short trip through the harbor
quickly discloses what a graveyard
the port has become,” the consul
reported. “Tugs and lighters are
tied up here and there, apparently
forgotten. One small cruiser rests. |
deserted, alongside a pier; electric
cranes are motionless on unused
docks; floating elevators and docks
are moored in rows, probably in
’ readiness for delivery to the Allies. :
“The giant Bismarck (56,000-ton
Hamburg-Ameriean liner) floats at 1
a fitting-out pier without a sign of
' life on board, and from a launch no
new work could be seen in any of
’ the big shipyards. Tied up to an
1 other pier in the outer harbor is
the former Atlantic record-holder,
the steamship Deutschland, relic of
the war, painted a deep black over
all, with spots of white showing here
and there where passing craft have
(
scraped her sides, a grim reminder
. of the glories once held by the Ger
man merchant fleets.”
Regular service is being main
tained with Holland, England and
North America, and lines were about
to start service for Spain and South
America, but the “free port” is ap
parently dead, Mr. Stewart reported.

rfANY STUDENTS OF
CALIFORNIA UNIVERSITY
PAY THEIR OWN WAY
BERKELEY, Cal.—Self-supporting
;tudents in the University of Cali-1
'ornia are increasing, according to
statistics compiled by the cmploy
nent bureau there. The best avail
ible figures give 25 percent of the
pen entirely self-supporting and 10
percent of the women. In addition,
15 percent of the men and 15 por
tent of the women are partially self
supporting.
While the greater part of the en
deavors followed by the students are
odd jobs such as house and garden
work, there are exceptionally good
positions offered occasionally. Ap
plications were received recently for
four students to take positions pay
ing about $125 per month. About
500 students have been helped by
this bureau this semester, and fully
an equal number have secured jobs
through other agencies.
The woman who won the first
prize at the Moose masquerade bail
at Anchorage a short time ago in a
hard-times makeup refused to re
veal her identity. When some folks
became inquisitive she shied the
prize at the head of one of them
and beat it. Xo one seems to know
who she was.
