NOTES
(By Special Correspondent)
Bart Buckley returned from a
a business trip to Fairbanks sever
al days before the ice began to flow.
Mr. Buckley came via Circle by auto
and on down the Yukon in an open
boat in care of Vjlmar Peterson of
Fort Yukon. Mr. Peterson made
several attempts to return, Dut was
unable to do so for several days on
account of the high winds down
river and floating ice.
• • *
C. L. Carlson, commissioner of
the Chandalar district, and Mr.
Buckley’s partner, spent several
weeks in Beaver in September. Both
are looking forward to a busy win
ter on their claim near Squaw
creek.
• * •
Mr. and Mrs.^ Frank Yasuda left
on the last boat September 26 for
Seattle. They expected to return
by plane before Thanksgiving. Mr.
Manuel Mello, his partner of Taco
ma, Wash., is very successfully at
tending the store during Mr.
Yasuda’s absence, assisted by Miss
Bernice Yasuda, who lately arrived
from the states where she has been
in school.
* *
Most of the trappers and pros
pectors have laid in their' winters
supplies and returned to the hills.
The last to go out were Tom Stur
rick, William McDaniels and Mr.
Nicholson, who is making relay
trips to his claim 125 miles up
Chandalar way, hauling with dog
team his lumber for sluice boxes
for next spring. The natives, both
Eskimo and Indian, have gone to
their trapping fields all but two
families, having left the children
in the village to attend school.
• * •
Charles Shultz has two teams on
the Chandalar road hauling ma
chinery and supplies to Caro and
nearby places. The mild weather
and heavy and frequent snows im
pede progress of all who use the
road with dogs or horses, however,
we hope for colder weather.- The
coldest record was 40 below, several
weeks ago, but for a few hours only.

The Bureau of Education school
opened in September with 23 wide
awake children. The pupils of the
school, whites and natives, show a
wonderful spirit of cooperation.
J The young son of Shinoko Billy,
Samuel Billy, was very badly injur
S "'d seme weeks ego. If it had not
| been for the competent services of
j Paul Schultz, the child would have
!d'.ed. Mr. Schultz has had some
medical training, which was neces
sary for such attention as this child
required. Sammy is doing nicely
and is an ideal patient.

SFJ LEVELS VARIES:
WATERS TILT NORTH
WASHINGTON, Dec., 21, MP)—
Waters of the oceans are tilted and
sea level is not the same the world
over.
As a result of the phenomenon
geodists of the United States and
Canada, now engaged in surveying
the two countries, are faced with
the need of selecting a single level
on which to base standard eleva
tions.
Mean sea level is higher for the
United States along the Pacific
coast than on the Atlantic, and
along the individual coasts there is
a definite tilt northward.
