PALMS IN ALASKA, NEVADA
ONCE AN OCEAN, THEY SAY

Alaska was once a land of sunshine
and flowers. Ferns and palms, such
as now thrive In lands far to the
south, once fiourished in the sub
tropical climate of her valleys and
lowlands.
But that was millions of years ago.
before man existed, according to the
United States Geological Survey,
which has made study of the fossil
fora. Deep down in the coal beds
have been found fossils Of plants
which indicate that Alaska was ages
ago a land of luxuriant loyeliness.
Dusky savages of a remote past,
or perhaps members of that enlight-
ened race of cliff dwellers, once look
ed across the water of huge lake in
what is now northwest Nevada.
Rude fleets perhaps wended their
way in a primitive commerce across
the great inland sea. which once
spread over s4OO square miles. also
according to the survey.
Biologists have given the great
body of water, which was present in
comparatively recent geological time
the name of Lake Lahontan In honor
of Baron La Hontan, one of the early
explorers of the head waters of the
I Missippippi river.
The deepest part OF Lake Lahontan,
800 feet, was the site of the present
Pyramid lake, small remnant, so
that its surface stood about 500 feet
above the surface of Pyramid lake.
A field Of sand dunes, formed since
the island sea disappeared, now ever
a large area few miles north OF
Winnemucca. The dunes are grad
ually moving eastward, and their
steady march has necessitated num-
Der of changes in the roads in recent
years. In some places telegraph poles
have been buried so deep that they
had to be spliced in order to keep the
wires above the crests of the sand
dunes.

Miss Evelena Hickey, well known
young lady OF Minden, has been Sc
iected as character eomedinne on
tne staff of the stewart company
which will, within the next few
weeks, produce the first motion Pic
ture play made in their entirety in
Oakland, Cal.
Although the announcement that
Miss Hickey is to appear In the NOV
les come as surprise to most of the
iadys acquaintances, close friends
have long known of her ambition for
stage career and of preparations
with that object in view, says the
News. While the Rickeys were resi-
dents of the bay cities in 1917 and 1918
Miss Hickey was a student at a well
known school of dramatics, and she at
that time took part in many amateur
theatricals staged for the entertain
ment of the boys In the army camps.
since returning to the city last June
she has taken further courses in dra-
matics, and through her success in
school and appearances in plays has
commanded the attention of persons
promiting the Stewart company and
mas been engaged as one of the play
ers.
Miss Rickey's many friends In this
Valley will be pleased to learn of her
success.

SEEK AID FOR
ROAD WORK

Some weeks ago the Record Courier
received letter from c. C. Cottrell
manager of the Good Roads Bureau
conducted by the California Highway
Association, relative to a proposition
In securing financial assistance from
the federal government for highway
work. This assistance was made
possible through what is known as the
National Forest Highway Bill, and
which carries an appropriation oil
$l5,O0O,0O0 for forest roads and roads
contiguous to national forests.
Owing to the fact that immediate
action was necessary, conditions max
ing 1t necessary to show desire for
such assistance before January 1st,
the Carson Valley Highway Associa-
ton, through its board of directors,
took up the matter with VIM. Maule,
Forest Supervisor of the Mono Forest,
as well as with the California Highway
Association. Forest Supervisor Maule
"e.s bO w oon IduSlSCO QuTIuk lQlS
month to attend meeting OF forest
officials and at that time will endeavor
to secure financial assistance for road
work under the forest appropriation.
The work proposed under this ap-
preparation will be confined to the
Gardnerville-Woodfords highway, the
Alpine county interests having al
ready taken steps to secure this aid
for the road in that county between
the California state highway and the
Nevada line. They have also ex-
pressed a desire to see a like i'm
provement on the road In Douglas
county between the California line
and Gardnerville, thereby giving an
improved road into Gardnerville from
the national forest in California to the
Nevada state highway which passes
through Minden and Gardnerville.
