her prize by writing the largest num

her deftness in writing the largest

a pretty powder puff when she turn
ed in the largest list of authors’

brilliant string of amber beads were
presented to Melba Johnsrud, the
fortunate winner.
The surprise of the delightful even
ing came when following the seating
at the table of the guests, the table
cover was carefully lifted, revealing a
miniature bride and groom. Ribbons
radiating out from a mysterious look
ing heap in the middle of the table,
led to each plate. Simultaneously the
ribbons were pulled upon and beans
fell in a shower about the table.
Dainty rose colored favors complet
ed the unique table decorations. Fol
lowing the delicious luncheon the
party proceeded to the dance at the
Draemland hall .

camps on a gas boat.
In the McCord base camp, on Oil
Bay, seven men comprise the crew.
Another camp has been set up on
Bowser Creek, a few miles off the’
coast, at a point which traverses the
anticline.
The cadastral party consists of 10
men, employed by the field division
of the Land Office. Their main
camp is located on Iniskin Bay with
another camp also on the anticline
along Bowser Creek. This particular
location could aptly be called para
dise valley, Mr. McCord said last
evening for it is truly a beautiful
spot. And game and fish are in
abundance.
The two geologists, representing
the Superior Oil Company, have been
working unceasingly day and night
since their arrival, and are said to
be enthused over the formation. Fol
lowing the completion of their work
in the Iniskin district they will go
over to Wide Bay, Kanatak, Chicka
loon, Yagataga and Katalla, on which
districts they will compile reports
for their companies they represent.
This work will no doubt keep them
in the Territory all summer.
The cadastral party of engineers
are extending the public land sur
veys of the Iniskin Bay region. This
is being done for the purpose of ty- ^
ing in the .lands in order that vari
ous properties may be identified and
that baseline may be established.
At Anchorage, Mr. McCord will join
Hawley Sterling, superintendent of
the Alaska Road Commission, who is
leaving the Inlet town in a few' days
with a crewr of men for the Iliamna
bay district where roadwork and
trails will be constructed. Mr. Mc
Cord will be dropped off at Oil bay
on the w'ay. Just when he is return
ing to Seward, Mr. McCord was un
able to state last evening, but he an- 4

The catch of seals by New Found
