FILM COMPANY TO
 STAGE SETTINGS IN
 COPPER RIVER VALLEY

Motion pictures of Alaskan life, the usual artifcially constructed studio ''sets," are now being filmed by the Beaux-Art Features Company, which passed through her the other day on it's way to the westward, in charge of President Albert l. Smith.
 In order to take full advantage of the unparalleled Alaskan scenery, frequent stops will be made. Kodiak island is the companys first objective. Debarking at that point, the party will cross to the mainland and proceed into the Valley of the Ten Thousand Smokes, the old Katmai crater Com ing out the company will stop at Cor dova, making a side trip to the Childs glacier, where more scenes will be filmed. Anchorage and SkagWay are also included in the itinerary.
 The party includes several of the best known players of the Los Angeles film company. The featured player is Herschel Mayall, known to millions of picture fans" as the greatest fighter on the screen. His leading lady is Miss Dixie Dawson, one of the most beautiful blondes ever introduced to flmdom by Cecil B. DeMile, under whose direction she has been working until she joined the Beaux-Art Fea- lures.
 While the photoplay scenes are being filmed by Director Wyndham Gittens, MT. Smith will oversee the photogrpahing of "scenics" and trav elogue films in which many of the most attractive and historic points of Alaska will be shown to the world "outside."
 The plays to be produced are strong red-blooded dramas of Alaskan life. Because the stories are such asI could "happen" only in Alaska and under Alaskan conditions, long step in advance of the customary film procedure is being taken by the com pany in coming to Alaska, at great expense, to stage scenes which are usually "faked" on studio stages.

SMALL HERD OF YAK TO BE
 SHIPPED TO FAIRBANKS

c. G. Georgeson, who is in charge of all the government farms in Alaska, advises that small herd of Yak would be shipped to the Fair banks station this season, and they will probably arrive in the near future. The animals were secured from the Canadian governments experimental station at Banff, B. C., where they have proven to be valuable.
 These animals were originally brought into the western world from Thibet where they are used for milk ing, as meat producers, and for beasts of burden. They answer all the pur- pose of cattle for the Thibetans.
 For several years Professor Geor- geson has advocated an experiment in cross breeding with the Yak and the Galloway stock which the govern ment farming stations along the coast have imported into Alaska. The i'm pOrtation of Yak into the interior, It is believed, means that such an eX- pertinent will be tried at the Fairbanks farm. This, however, will probably not occur for year or two, as It IS believed that no cattle will be brought there until next season, and possibly later than that.

LACK OF INFORMATION
 IN THE EAST ABOUT
 CONDITIONS IN ALASKA

Mrs. Clifford H. Phillips has again returned to gladden. the community with her cheerful ways, after having spent over three months visiting in Pennsylvania, New Jersey and Mary land. During her visit she attended the funeral of brother, Thomas C.. West, who had been cashier of the Denton National Bank, Denton, Mary land, for over thirty years, passing away at the age of 81 years.
 While on this trip Mrs. Phillips had occasion to find out how misinformed some of Uncle Sam's post office en- ploes are in regards to Alaska when she endeavored to mail a book to Cor dova. The clerk said "that cannot be delivered this time of year (ApriD ac- cording to the postal guide" After explaining to him that she had come from there less than month previous and that it was a port open all the year, never ice-bound, he finally con- scented to accept the package for mailing.
 Mrs. Phillips had to use all of her persuasive powers to convince many in the east (whose knowledge of geo. graphy is limited) why she was anxious to again return to Alaska.
