Seward Trading Co., Inc,
.best friend the Eskimo has, for
its annual voyage to the island
is a God-send to them. On the
present trip the ice-pack—solid
| floating ice from the Polar Sea,
had surrounded the island ten
days previous to the arrival of
the boat and not an Eskimo but
believed there was no possible
chance for Captain Whitlam to
reach them this year. But lo!
One morning they saw the Box
er breaking his way through
a small lead—an open channel.
Happiness reigned supreme among
the tribe. “No other skipper in
the world would have risked do
ing such a thing,” Geist said,
“but I doubt if any captain knows
ice such as does Captain Whit
lam unless it is the cutter ser
vice officers who likewise are
contnually performing remarka
ble feats of seamanship such as
this.”
WHITLAM GIVES TANK
The large fuel tank on exhi
bition in the Seward Drug store
window, came from the diri
gible Norge which flew over the
North Pole and was, until Mr.
Geist procured it, the personal
property of Captain Whitlam.
Another tank, similar to this
one rests in the museum at Ju
neau. Captain Whitlam was glad
to turn it over to the College
and thanks were extended to
him for acquisition of the val
uable trophy which he no doubt
could have realized a large sum
if had desired to dispose of it
elsewhere.
Next season’s activities will
turn toward excavating work in
the Interior where it is anti
cipated mastadons will be un
earthed as well as other pre-his- j
toric animals.
In the College Museum there
is already a splendid collection
of these, though small in num
ber, but with the information at
hand it is a certainty some re- ;
markable specimens will be ob
tained.
In conclusion, Mr. Geist, who
was a guest of the Chamber of
Commerce this afternoon at the
weekly luncheon, stated he again
desired at this time to thank the
many government departments
which assisted in so many ways
to make the work a littleeasier;
particularly to the coast guard
service, the light-house service,
the Bureau of EducatiQn and the
Department of Agriculture. At no
time was he refused assistance
from them.
Mr. Geist departs tomorrow
for the College where he will de
vote the winter to listing the
thousands of specimens which
he previously shipped and those
he has with him at this time.

‘Okeh” records at Sylvia’s?
