It is rather astonishing to see the
vast amount of snow along the Al
aska Peninsula mainland at this
time of the year. It is said that
the snows in that area are almost
perpetual with the exception that
as summer progresses the further
b .ck and up from the shoreline it
n cedes.

DUCK PARADISE IS
j All of the little coastal towns of
the Westward are located at stra
Igetic points with regard to protec
tion from the elements. And so it
! is with Sanak. The island is flat
with very low rolling hills covered
with tundra. Nothing beautiful,
| from the standpoint of scenery, yet
the island is quite renowned.
For one thing on this upthrust
from the depths of the sea, measur
iing some 14 miles in length to
about 11 and one-half miles in
j width, a total of 365 lakes are
found.
j Which is great stuff for the bird
lies.
And when we speak of birds we
mean just that- Look these over.
Mallards, sprigs, chickaneeze, but
terballs, bluebills, scotchies, ducks,
molls, rooks, eiders, teals and so
many others only a scientist could
describe with any degree of ac
! curacy. There are millions of birds
Ion this island.
Their eggs are all good, in sea
json, but in gathering them the in
j habitants always leave a few in

each nest for the birdies to hop
right back into it and go to work
again. The chickaneeze is about
the only one which lays but one
egg and. like the sea parrot, bur
rows down into the earth for some
distance and then and there does
its stuff. Seekers of eggs, coming
upon one of these nests, thrust an
arm down into it and take not only
the egg but the bird as well. Both
make a delectable dish, so they say,
especially the bird which has a
! flavor not unlike spring chicken.
'And from the chicken the chickan
eeze derives its name.

Things are moving in a mining way
so to speak, over on Popoff Island
iwhere Bradford, the well known
| cannery man and graduate engin
eer, is developing what is believed
to be a continuation of the famous
vein from the Apollo mine, near
-Unga. A good sized crew has been
working steadily there for many
months; of more recent date, fol
lowing a shipment of 60 tons of ore
to the states for assay purposes, an
'engineer from California has been
on the ground checking up.
; Off-hand, it can be said, that
I great hopes should be held by the
people of this division for the even
tual coming in of a great producing
gold mine. It may be recalled that
until the time the Apollo closed
down thru disappearance of the
vein, it was the greatest mine in
the Territory.
Thirty cases of measles were re
I ported prevalent at Attu two weeks
I ago; all cases were light, no deaths
.being reported. A few cases were
also reported at Akutan.
