LOWER KENAI
ENJOYS MOST
GLORIOUS SPRING
Residents of the Kenai Lake coun
try have enjoyed one of the best
spring and summer seasons for many
years past, the sun always shining,
and the temperature ranging from
seventy-five degrees to as high as
one hundred degrees. Monday the tem
perature at Louis Bell’s place on Ke
nai Lake, was recorded at 85 degrees
in the shade, with a slight breeze
blowing.
Captain Bell of the gas launch Ke
nai, is having his engine overhauled,
and is now running passengers with
the small launch belonging to E. Fred
ricks, of Mile 18. He hopes to have
the staunch launch Kenai back on the
run by the first of next week. Mrs.
Bell, accompanies her husband on his
trips, assisting in the running of the
boat.
According to reports on the Lake,
Mr. Brehmer now employed in Mc
Mullen’s Grocery, will start a fox
farm on Quartz Creek, in the lower
lake district. He is having his boat
overhauled at Mile 18-. Mr. Brehmer
was formerly a resident of Snug Har
bor, where he had a comfortable little
home.
Mrs. Lewis, mother of Douglas Clem
ens and Mrs. Louis Lane of Rudiford
was a passenger down the lake last
Monday to visit her daughter. She
was accompanied by her grandchildren
and daughter, who met her in Seward.
Mrs. Lewis will return to Seward next
Saturday to make her home.
Dune Little, veteran of the Lower
Lake country, with a crew of men, is !
rapidly whipping the Kenai road in
shape, and is making good progress. |
Mr. Little is fixing up his large cabin
at Cooper’s Landing and will move
into it this winter. Dune has one of
the best gardens of the district, his
green stuffs being well on the way to
maturity.
Jack Lein, well-known in Seward, is
building himself a fine new home at
the lower landing, having a large
| basement cemented in, and his struc
! ture up with a roof on it. This will
be one of the show places of file camp
when completed.
Mr. and Mrs. Louis Lein are en
i joying life at the lower landing, hav
j ing a fine garden with lots of greens
j now ready for the table. Mr. Lein ;
is busy these days working on the!
highway and during his spare time;
putting up a cabin, which will be rent-!
ed to hunters and tourists. Mrs.
Lein, mistress of the large house at |
the landing, serves meals to all who
wish them, making it unnecessary to
carry many provisions into the dis
trict.
Mr. and Mrs. Frank Towle are the !
proud possessors of one of the pret- >
tiest little homes on the lake. It'
stands about twenty feet above the
river, the grounds in front of the
place being trellised down to the
water’s-edge and planted with many
flowers and vines. Besides this they
also have a fine garden. Frank at
THEY ALL COME BACK
or want to, at least. And that's why your
sourdough friend in the States gets so
hungry for news from Alaska.

present is in the Moose Pass district
working for the Bureau of Public
Roads and occasionally drops down
he lake to' see his family. Little Miss
rovvle. now fifteen months old, is
thriving on the Kenai climate, and
pids fair to be the belle of the Land
ng. Mr. and Mrs. Towle are con
structing a large two-story log dwel
ling, and will have it completed this
winter.
Up at Snug Harbor Mr. and Mrs.
Bell are living in comfort, Mr. Bell
iiaving added another room to his al
ready large home. A visit to the
Bell home is one never to be forgot
ten. Situated in a grove of quaking
isp, its white walls glistening in the
sun through the trees, it is a home of
peace and quiet, the most beautiful
spot on the lake. Mrs. Bell is mak
ing wonderful improvements to the
grounds, having planted rose bushes
along the paths, and with the natural
flowers which grow there, will soon
tiave the place looking like a park.
Situated at Snug Harbor are the
homes of several old pioneers, and
further back on the hillside a large
fox ranch rears its walls.
Fishing at the lake is unusually
good this summer, large lake trout
and whitefish being caught off the
wharf at Snug Harbor.
Down in the Russian Itiver Country
the weather is glorious, being unusu
ally warm during the day time, with
cool nights. The flies are not very
bad this year, and the fish are just
as hungry as ever, probably more so,
for in the words of one of our old
timers, “you have to stand behind a
bush to bait your hook." The best
trout fishing to be had is up at the
canyon. belowr the Bishop place, trout
being caught there twenty-seven
inches long. A party of Anchorage
fishermen returning from there after
a tw'o days’ trip, brought back with
them 250 pounds of Rainbow trout, all
of them large size.
Along the trail to the River will be
found the home of Bob Seifert, nest
ling in a grove of birch trees. Bob
is always glad to see everyone, and
will give them the directions as to
wrhere the best fishing can be found.
At the upper end of Kenai Lake
at Mile 23, Mr. and Mrs. Law’ing are
doing a rushing business, having 24
persons for breakfast the other morn
ing. Mr. Lawing is having his speed
boat remodelled and making general
repairs about his place. Mrs. Otto
Schallerer is spending the week at her
bungalow near 23, and wrill probably
return to Seward this Saturday.
French Air Pilots Anxious
To Make Atlantic Flight
PARIS, July 17. (/P)—Paul Taras
con, French “ace” and pioneer in
pre-war flying in Europe, has been
bringing all the pressure he can to
bear on M. Painleve at the war of
fice and M. Laurent Eynac of the
aeronautic department to enable him
to make his proposed non-stop flight
across the Atlantic this summer.
Tarasccm who lost a leg before
the World War and had difficulty
in getting into the service, will be
accompanied by another skilled air
pilot, if the flight is made, Francois
Coli, a naval officer who accompa
nied Roget on his France-Rumania
flight and on his “stunt trip” of
crossing the Mediterranean twice in
one day.
It is planned to start the flight
toward the end of July, provided the
necessary government authorization
can be obtained, leaving from Le
Bourget airdrome, just outside of
Paris, and making the jump to Mit
chel Field on Long Island. The French
air authorities are counselling the
two pilots to take off from Ireland
or nearer the French coast than Le
Bourget, and to aim for Newfound
land as a first landing place. Taras
con and Coli, however, persist in
maintaining the flight can be made
without a landing and are demand
ing a fair chance to prove it.
The plane they intend to use is one
Breguet “Paris-Tokio” model made
famous by Captain Pelletier D’Oisy
on his flight a year ago. The engine
will be either the Hispano-Suiza or
the new Renault.
Miss Gertrude Ederle, 17 year old
American swimming wonder, swam
24 miles from the Battery to Sandy
I Hook, New York, in 7 hours, 11 min
utes, 30 seconds, beating the reocrd
for the same course made in 1921 by;
George Meehan. She failed in her
| attempt to swim the English channel.
