Mir. J. E. Elmer, from the Slate Creek district, has been in Cor dova for a few days on business, re- turning north Tuesday on the train. MT. Elmer reports a very sat isfactory season in his district this year. The heavy rains, however, have had a bad effect on the trail in spots, he says, the section near Paxson's being in bad surface con- dition That the condition is only surface one MT. Elmer takes pains to state, the foundation work on the trail having been well done. Contin- uous travel over the tundra surface during the rainy season has rutted the trail badly in places, but with dry weather the condition will be inn proved he says.

 VALLEY OF SMOKES

Dr. and Mrs. w. H. Chase, and their party of six guests, embarked yesterday on the yacht Tuk-a-ho for their journey to Geographic Bay and the "Valley of Ten Thousand Smokes" Dr. Chases guests, who were Dr. Hubbs, Dr. Harrington, MT. and Mrs. R. J. Hoover and MT. and Mrs. c. V. Hoover, of Uniontown Pennsylvania arrived on the Ala meda Sunday evening and have been in Cordova since that time await ing the arrival of the Tuk-a-ho, | which cruised north from Seattle and came into port Monday morn ing. The Tuk-a-hO is staunch and comfortable little craft, and has been the object of much interest during her anchorage in the harbor the past two days. Fitted up con- l pletely with staterooms, bath, a cabin of comfortable size, she has
 accommodations for eight passengers and crew. Her cabin, upholstered in 1 tapestry and provided with a piano, photograph and small library, Of l fers every facility for pleasure and
 convience. The engine-room amid

 galley is in the stern.
 Dr. Chase and his party will go l first to Analik Bay, at the head of ] which is Geographic Bay, from

 petition. Here Dr. Chase has provid- ed camp, and from this point the

arrange it so that half the class may attend in the forenoon, the other half in the afternoon, since two sessions are considered to be too strenuous for the little ones. This will be done to suit the convenience of parents. The small enrolment in the first grade and the large en- rollment in the second and third grade room makes it possible to give Miss Eastman half of the second grade, thereby relieving the congestion in Miss Johnstone's room and enabling the second grade pupils to receive more individual attention. After the registration of students and the as- signment of lessons, the school was dismissed and the necessary arrang- ing of program and of seating equip ment in the various rooms, was at tended to in both buildings.
 The High School faculty this year is as follows: George M. Goodman, superintendent; Elleanora Fransen, Latin and English; w. Harold Evans, Science, History and French. The grade teachers are as follows: Amelia Kellenberger, 9th, 7th and Sth grades; Esther Thorne, dth and 5th grades: Nita Johnstone, 2nd A and 3rd; Verna Eastman, 1st and 2nd B; Marian Sum mers, kindergarten.
 MT. Mackenzie is again janitOr at the main building, and Donald Eos ter is taking care of the rooms in the Fire Hall
 The school faculty expresses itself as being very enthusiastic over the calibre of pupils which the Cordova school has enrolled, and the teachers are anxious that parents should visit the classes when, said one of them, the visitors will find themselves "just as much in love with these young Cor dovans as we are"
