IN JOY zONE AND
 EXHIBIT PALACES

A special correspondent of the San Mateo (CaL) Times, who had been taking in the Panama-Pacific International exposition at San Francisco had the following kind words to say in the issue of that paDer of August 24th of our tried and true Alaska friend, Mrs. Mary E. Hart, which we take pleasure in reproducing in the columns of the Daily Alaskan:
 "The chief exhibit from Alaska is ill charge of the hostess of the Pa cieic Coast Steamship cOmpany's dis play in the Transportation palace, Mrs. Mary E. Hart, the famous AL aska lecturer, journalist, trayeler and club woman. She is president Of the Alaska Cruise club composed Of 14O0 members, who are mostly world travellers, "cruisers" on land and sea; vice president of the Pa Cific Coast WOmans Press aSsocia- tion, official lecturer of the Pacific Coast s. S. Co.,, and a number of other useful things. Without her Alaska would have but a sorry ex- hibit. She is brim full of informa- tiOn concerning the great territory to the northwest and dispenses it freely to all visitors. The exhibit consists of various articles of inter est from Alaska comprised of private collections loaned for the purpose.
