HUGE |CE PACK NAMED
 AFTER CHIEF EXECUTIVE

Harding Glacier, huge ice pack, ninety miles long and forty miles in width, extending from Seward to Sel- dovia, has been named the Harding Glacier, in honor of the visit of our nations chief executive. In view ot the visit of President Harding, Sew ard citizens have given his name to the huge ice pack, believed to be one of the largest in existence, and remnant of the glacial period when the ice cap covered the northern part of | the Western hemisphere.
 Innumerable large and small gla- ciers radiate from the main pack into 1 the ocean. The pack extends west and 1 southwest from Seward and can De reached by way of Lowell creek, by an auto road not exceeding toul miles in length where machines could drive directly upon the ice field. 4 more feasible route at the present time is to go down the beach hal mile to Spruce creek, thence up tht creek to Harding glacier, mush fo an Alaskan of about three hours. Th' trail is brushed out good and it is al easy climb.
 It is the hope of the people of Sew
 ard that the President himself vii
 at some future time step foot on tn ice field which bears his name. At an rate for ages to come it will perpetual . the visit of our President.

Moorhouse left the veranda five

As he drew the comb from the leather
