Five Big Game Hunters Arrive
 On the Alice

Five big game hunters arrived on the S.S. Princess Alice Tuesday morning. Their names and address les follow:
 Lord Hamilton of London. This distinguished gentleman first had his attention called to the Cassiar by Ia newspaper article which he read twelve years ago.
 Dr. J. Leo Burthe of New Orleans. The doctor learned of the Cassiar re- zion through a friend who had hunt ed in the North.
 Dr. Thomas s. Arbuthnot of Pitts
 burg, Pa. The doctor spent two months hunting in the Cassiar in 1919. He has several hobbies, one iof which is photography. One day during his previous trip into the Cassiar he had gone out with his camera to get landscape view when
 he came upon a grizzly not over 30
 yards away. He quickly placed his tripod and threw back the covering over his head. Charlie Quasi, the Indian guide, grew apprehensiye and kept exclaiming, Shoot, Doctor. Shoot" The doctor turned around and gently patted the guide on the shoulder and told him not to get ex- cited, adding that there was more sport in shooting with the camera than with gun. The bear was moving slowly and manifesting cu- riosity in what was taking place Apparently undecided just what move to make, the bear paused, look ing straight into the camera. At that moment pr. Arbuthnot squeezed the bulb and secured a plate of great scientific value. He then used his rifle and the bear was soon still enough for another picture. It measured feet, inches.
 Charles Arbuthnot of Pittsburg. Pa. MT. Arbuthnot is a wholesale dry goods merchant and a brother of Dr. T. S. Arbuthnot. He also made hunting trip into the Cassiar in 1919, killing four grizzlies, as we'll as several mountain sheep, mountain goat and caribou.
 H. F. Gotham of New Orleans. MT. Gotham is a wholesale merchant of the Crescent City. He has pre- viously hunted in the North.

Knyg Glacier After Ten Years.
Contributed

The first view of Knygg glacier
 n entering the lake after having been away ten years causes one to exclaim Tt Is some old glacier V
 Tn first view of Knyg Glacier on entering the lake after having been away ten years, causes one to ex- claim, Tt is the same old glacier" ," The view from Richardson's point where MT. Richardson stood when he painted his famous picture of the glacier, is almost the same. A close examination even from there, which must be two miles from the glacier, shows some chnge. The end of the glacier which is forming terminal moraine, extends back much fur ther. However, on approaching the glacier, and on mounting the hillock which is at the right end of the lat eral moraine, the change is much more evident. The ridges on the hillock have nearly disappeared. and much or II IS covered with stunted alder, which was not then there. The ridge around the peak still re- mains. The bare earth is washed away giving 1t the appearance of a stone wall. What has caused these ridges of course is plain. It is a tenn porary advance of the glacier due to a hard snowy winter which piles up earth in front. The glacier is fast making for itself a terminal morraine similar to what is seen in Davidson and Sum Dunn" glaciers. The scenery, of course, around this glacier is the wonder beauty spot of Alaska. Wrangell people have per- feet right to brag about their seen cry The most fantastic bragging can scarcely tell half the truth.

NOTICE

All persons interested in the or ganization of rod and gun club are requested to meet in the dining room of the Wrangell hotel at 7:3O Satur- day evening.
 A number of matters affecting game conditions in this region have been brought to the attention of the Wrangell Commercial Club. While the club is willing to give its moral support to any movement in the in- terest of better game conditions, it is nevertheless the opinion of the majority of the members that mat ters pertaining to game conditions could be more effectually handled by rod and gun club. whose entire ef- fors would be solely in the interest of better game conditions.
 A club of this kind, in addition to getting up enjoyable hunting trips. could make it's influence felt in se- curing sane legislation in matters affecting the game of Alaska.

Courageous Forest Ranger
 Encounters Two Big Bears

Forest Ranger G. c. Haneman, who is we'll known in Seward, re- gently had an exciting encounter with a couple of brown bears, which he describes in letter to the Gate way. The communication in part is as follows:
 "On the morning of July 30. I left Hope with Ranger Brady and Guard Wolfe. We intended to walk up Resurrection Creek valley for about Is miles. When we got about five miles from Hope MT. Brady com plained of his feet hurting him. The day before we had walked to Sunrise from Hope and about three miles past Sunrise and back to Hope again, a distance of about 2S miles. AS MT. Brady had not done any long dis tance walking lately, he blistered his feet. So he decided to return to Hope with Guard Wolfe because we intended to walk about 20 miles the next day. I told them I would walk ten miles farther up the valley, as I had never been up there before. So they left for Hope and I continued up the valley.
 Now, when I am walking alone I always whistle as I go along. Do not get the impression that do this to bolster up my courage, because such is is not the case. am not afraid of wild animals. I do so because I wish to let any bears that happen to be on the trail ahead of me know that am coming and so give them a chance to get away. I never carry rifle on my trips. and I do not like to kill bears with my hands. It makes such a mussy job.
 50, as I was saying, was walk ing along and whistling. By the way. Iwhistle very loud, as can keep bet ter step. Some few, narrow minded people may possibly think that this explanation is purely ostentatious, but that is always the case when one makes an honest, frank statement. However. was walking along and whistling and thinking. got think ing about the trials and tribulations of life in general and my own case in particular Finally my train of thought drifted into the past. I recalled and repented over things that had hap pened and was wishing that I could do them over again. In fact, l was thinking so seriously that absent mindedly and inadvertently stopped whistling. I was walking along very rapidly with my head down until I came to a curve in the trail. Upon turning the curve I looked up, and less than one hundred feet in front of me were two nice, large brown bears. In fact. they looked SO large and 80 pretty that immediately stopped in order to get a good look at them. did not go a step nearer to them for fear of frightening them away. We'll, anyhow, felt that had seen all of the valley that wanted to. and so decided to return. As the afternoon was partly gone and as I had quite a ways to go, decided to run for the first five miles in order to get back before dark. This explan- ation, also no doubt, will give some cynically inclined person a chance to criticise.
 "To further substantiate my state ment that I am not afraid of wild animals I will say that after I had covered the five miles necessary to get me back before dark, I chased several wild rabbits off the trail and actually hit one porcupine with my walking stick without the least tre- ptdation.
