Hansen, cook, Mr. L. D. McGhee mu
sic teacher and reindeer man, Mrs.
McGhee matron, and Miss Violet
Marmasena, teacher. A fine hospital
is located here and is doing much
good in the section, having patients
from far-away places, several of
them being whites. The youngsters
are a hardy, happy, healthy lot, and
do the work necessary in policing up
the building and grounds. They have
on exhibition many fine samples of
work done in making ranges, stoves,
clothing, parkas and other articles,
but are refused the privilege of sell
ing them by the Bureau of Education
in charge of the school. Could this
be done it would go far toward mak
ing the school self-supporting, as
there is a great demand for the
stoves, and the tiny parkas would
sell like hot cakes to the tourists in
Seward. The Bureau of Education is
doing a great work here, but is too
pedantic in its ideas and as the
school is run from Seattle, it is too
far away for its operatives to see
how the work should be done. The
staff is earnest and sincere in its
work but is handicapped by many ab
surd rulings, such as the above.
Captain Johansen made a great hit
with the party by inviting the school
orchestra composed of native child
ren, with Mr. McGhee, instructor,
aboard the boat to play for the pas
sengers. The music was greatly ap
preciated and showed much ability.
At Dillingham it was so cold that
when one of the party wept over
leaving her friends the tears froze to
her nose and were removed later in
the evening to prevent suffocation.
At Unga on the return trip the par
ty received notice of a dance given
in its honor by Judge Driffield. The
vessel arrived in port at midnight,
but many of the passengers repaired
to the shore and had a good time
nevertheless.
Return Trip Pleasant.
Thereturn trip was quiet and peace
ful, the boat being doaded to the
guards with passengers and freight.
The weather was ideal except cold.

and it became a race to $ce who
could cheer the loudest and longest.
The crowd finally tore itself away i
but it hurt.
Dance In Kodiak.
The vessel stopped at Chignik, Ka
natak, Uyan and Alganik on the way
back, arriving at Kodiak about noon
Saturday. A dance was arranged by
the citizens of the town, and a fine
time enjoyed until a late hour. The
crowd scattered about town during
the afternoon, eating at the local res
taurants, four in number, and visit
ing the famous Russian Greek church
Father Kashavaroff, pastor in
charge. The aged prelate has been in
the Kodiak church as noviate and
priest in charge for 49 years last
month, and hopes to round out a half j
century there. He showed the party
through the handsome edifice first
built in 1791, and exhibited the bi
ble printed on vellum from wood cuts
in 1776, the year the Declaration of
Independence of the United States
was signed. The edges of the bible
was hammered gold, with the date
1791 on them. Numerous picture
frames of hammered silver and gold
are to he seen. The value of this
church to Kodiak from a tourist
standpoint is hardly appreciated, as
it is unique and contains many fine
relics.
The government experimental sta
tion, with Supt. White in charge was
also visited. It is experimenting in
a special breed of cattle in Alaska,
and is meeting with great success.
Capt. Johansen was loath to leave
the light fantastic but his duties tore
him away and Seldovia was reached
shortly after noon next day, follow
ing a calm passage. James Hill, the
pleasant deputy marshal, met the
party at the dock and presented it
with a case of minced clams from
the local beds . Sam Kramer also
had on a boiled shirt and Stetson
hat in honor of the occasion. The
party visited for an hour and sailed
for home, arriving Monday morning,
about 5:30, satisfied and happy.
The trip was in the nature of get
ting acquainted with the westward
district, and was an eyeopener to
most of the party, who had not be
fore realized the vast distances be
tween Seward and the end of the div
ision. The Starr was three weeks
steaming fairly steady ,on the trip
and covered nearly 3600 miles.
Capt. Johamen A Booster.
Capt. Johansen and crew were un
flagging in their efforts to look after
the comfort of the party ,and daily
the members of the chamber would
gather in the captain’s cabin to lis
ten to his experiences or advice on
the needs of the country. One point
uregd by the captain was the need
of more lights and aid to navigation.
He also urged the sounding of the
harbors and bays. The chamber
made a number of warm friends on
the trip, and worked up considerable!
business with the business firms.
There is no question but that the ex
cursion will be repeated next year,
as far as Unalaska at least, and that
many more will take advantage of
the trip . Unbounded hospitality was
extended the party at every town,
and everything possible in the way
of entertainment provided.

DOES YOUR BACK ACHE?
Bad Backs Bring Suffering to Many
Seward Folks.
Is that dull, constant backache
making you old and miserable ? Does
your back throb and ache until it
seems you just can’t keep going? Do
you suffer headaches, dizzy spells
and urinary disorders; feel weak,
tired and worn-out? Then look to
your kidneys. Delay may mean ser
ious kidney sickness! Use Doan’s
Pills—a stimulent diuretic to the
kidneys. Doan’s are recommended by
thousands.
Claude Nutter, S 3rd St., Montesa
no, Wash., says: “The hardships
which I endured in the woods is
what affected my kidneys and caus
ed kidney complaint. I had severe
catches in my back when I got down
My kidneys acted too often annoy
ing me at night. I always used Doan’s
Pills at this times and they knock
ed the pain out of my back and put
my kidneys in a healthy condition.”
