high in growth yet the trees are
quite sturdy, the tallest being pro

'that they too will take root and in
time become sturdy,
i As far as is known these spruce
I trees and those at Unalaska are the
| farthest west clump of trees on the
North American continent and
gives mute evidence that regardless
of the fact the entire Westward
|country is a treeless region, if
; sprouts are planted, they will sur
jvive.
If carried forward on an exten
sive plan over a series of years it
may be that the wood problem of
the Far Westward may in time be
Solved by transplanting and when
they have attained fair growth,
iharvest them for fire wood, at
i least.
WAS FOREST COVERED
Dr. Jaegar, national known vol
canologist who two years ago spent
a summer Westward studying the
| many volcanoes on the Aleutian Is
| lands end Alaska Peninsula, found
! leaves from trees deeply imbedded
in volcanic rock which led him to
i believe that once, in past ages, the
| entire country out there, where
, now hardly a tree stands, was once
i a vast forest but which became ex
tince by reason of eruptions.

! CULINJBY DEPARTMENT
i “I have been a passenger on
many steamers in years gone by
but never did I enjoy meals as I
; have on the recent voyage of the
S. S Starr to the Westward,” re
marked J. C. Evans, an incoming
arrival on the staunch little mail
boat.
The statement of Mr. Evans is
endorsed by many previous travel
ers on the steamer as to the excel
lency of the culinary department
which is* presided over by Henry
Gutz, former resident of Seward.
One's jaws never seemed masticat
ing as enormous portions of Chef
Getz’s food were devoured.
“But it would not be right to stop
there,” Evans added, “for the
steward’s department, William
Ross, is conducted with all the ser
vice one would or could desire on
a steamer several times the size
of the Starr- These two depart
ments are the ones passengers un
doubtedly come to know better
than any other on board and the
fact they handle them so adroitly
and skillfully, calls for these few
words of tribute in appreciation.
I Mr. Hcaly, the waiter in the main
dining room, as well as Mr. Ross,
were never too busy but what they
found time to attend to the wishes
of the passengers”.

In these waters navigators compute
