Without doubt the radio will to,
great extent replace the phono-

The demonstration said that Wash

 Christmas In Years

Strating with the Christmas Tree Wednesday night and ending with a dance last evening, Seward enjoyed one of the best Christmas seasons in years. A large crowd assembled at A. B. Hall to attend the community Christmas Tree exercises, and a gen eral good time was enjoyed. The pro- gram started off with music, after which the children of the school staged an elaborate and interesting program, interspersed with speeches songs, and concluding with playlet, which brought down the house. Fol lowing this came the distribution oi the presents, Santa Claus appearing in costume, and wonderful to relate knowing the names of every little boy and girl in town. A dance was given following the distribution of presents.
 The tree was one of the most beau tifully decorated ever seen in Sew. ard. and excited universal admiration
 Christmas Day was a beautiful one in Seward, the mercury standing at 32 degrees above. zero and at times the sun shining brightly. Our citi zens were out bright and early and many a scream Merry Christmas passed back and forth.

GRUESOME FIND MADE BY MOVIE
 MEN IN ARCTIC
FAMOUS EXPLORER AND PHOTO GRAPHER VISIT HERALD ISL.
 AND MAKE DISCOVERY

Sydney A. Snow, of the Snow African Wild Game Moving Picture Company of Oakland, California, who was a member of the motorship Herman party, which went to Herald island, in the Arctic Ocean, and there found the skeleton remains of Dr. A. Forbes Mackey, James Murray, H. Beauchat and s. s. Murray, who were members of the Stefansson- Canadian Arctic expedition, gave the following account of the voyage of rescue to the Nome Nugget as fol- lows:
 After leaving Nome and bound for the Arctic acean the Herman ran into head seas and storms from the northeast. This made Captain Lane abandon his hope of salvaging the motorship Lady Kindersley and we left Cape Lisbourne and headed for Wrangell and Herald Islands. We had a couple of days good weather and it was on the second of these good days that we came upon our first Polar bear. He was a big brute weighing, I should say, about one thousand pounds and all bear. Captain Lane wanted to know what I wanted to do and I took the whale boat but wanted him to act as my gunman and keep me out of reach of that big brute's black-clawed shaggy white foreleg. We had the boat manned by white and Eskimo crew and took after him. sat up in the bow of the boat and shot scenes of him swimming, climbing out on the ice and running over it only to dive in at the farther side. We stayed pretty close to him and after about twenty minutes chase he decided to charge. The schooner Herman came up close and he picked the smaller of the two boats and think, me in particular. He was oWAAAAlAA6 An0I 0Au A4VO0 S1AO HI the next two or three seconds of film which would be two or three feet, got on the silver emulsion as determined charge as bear ever put up in the Arctic ocean. Need mention that the Captain saved my life just as I was preparing to make picture of bear climbing into whale boat?
 T hardly got my magazines re- loaded with film when bear No. 2, which hereafter will be known as Sid Wrangell, went strolling along the main pack, unconscious that his tormentors were close at hand. It took bit of clever mareuvering of the Herman by the Captain and we were again on the wake of polar
Seward daily gateway., 1924-12-01

later we returned to get some pro- tection from another northwester and here this time we had ire at twelve at night. The Captain still hunted for whales but the old ship iced down so heavily that the axes had to be kept going to keep her from sinking and with running into a big blue iceberg at night, when running before the wind with the engine going, gave us such scare that we were forced to turn towards Nome and get out of that dangerous Arctic which had already claimed four boats for the years tragedies. We are now in Nome, and did not get out of the old ocean without hav- ing to ride out a three-day storm.
 October thirteenth many Nome ites visited the bear aboard the He.- man laying at anchor off Nome. One sightseer says you cannot tell any one how big he is for they will have to go and see him.
 q think we will give the picture going public another big picture and though it is entirely different from the African picture I think in this sort of country which has been wrongly termed the Friendly Arc tic." It will show the people in a way how the animals live and fight and will show what happens to most of the wrecked crews up in these northern waters which are anything but friendly. The. big bear will find home in the outside world that will keep him warmed up as compared to this stuff up here, but he will not have to sneak on seals or battle with walrus to keep alive. Just think of how people will want to see how a bear of that size is captured should we decide to use him as a show attraction.
 We leave Nome for Kodiak where we expect to get real thrill in a

Dr. John J. Abel of Johns Hopkins has developed an artificial kidney, :, a device which can draw all the blood of an animal or human being from a vein, pass it through a sort of filter to remove poisons or other impuri- ties, then return it through an artery without removing the vital corpuscles. Only a relatively small portion of the blood is out of the patient at a time, as the flow from vein to filter and back to the artery is continuous.

face hooded about eighteen hundred or two thousand pounds of the tough est and strongest flesh and hide that swims the Arctic waters. This old fellow proved to be the wonder div ing bear so far seen in the Arctic, according to the Captain who is by far the critic on animal life in the Arctic ocean. a1
 "Footage soon ran into the hun dreds and as he tired a bit we pulled up close to him and soon clever throw by the skipper held him fast, and lasso. a capper cable. came fast around the groins and after many a tug and pull the crew on the end of the line got him fast to the capstan. A net was lowered and in two hours and little over we low cred him into the cage, which took us nearly month to build while we lay in St. Michaels waiting the arrival of our new crankshaft. Then it was that my heart sank, for tue hour was late and the evenings in the Arctic darken quickly at this time of the year, also my cage seem ed to be made of burned handles and it took my efforts and the mates to keep thtt bear from breaking free again. We kept him from breaking out by making him turn from one side to the other. I thought many time that the Captain would have to kill him to save both our lives as we three were about all that was left on the deck. When we finally got the cage down and on the level, you can bet we strengthened it with four by fours, chains and wire.
 For days again we tossed around in winds and swell and finally got into Herald island, where we layed at anchor two days before we got ashore and raised the flag for the United States. The wind subsiding, we went from the southeastern end of the island to tlle southwestern and it was while going in this di- rection that the Captain sighted what appeared to be the skeleton of a man. We went ashore and there on the sand spit of that lonely and far off friendly Arctic isle we found the remains of at least four white men who by the outfit we knew to be the lost party, or part of them, of the Stefansson-C Canadian Arctic Expedition ship Karluk, which was lost in 1914 in command of Cap. tain Bartlett, who it will be recalled was in Nome on the Coast Guard Cutter Bear this year.
 Tt was a clear day and I took four or five hundred feet of film picturing the whole thing. Four lower jaws were found, two guns, watch, compass, all badly spoiled by time, a dog sleigh and plenty of food remained and by the looks of the camp and other things we judged that they had not been there over a month at the time of their death, and most likely came there in a state of terrible frost-bitten feet and hands. No signs of any carrion was to be found. We left that island and rolled around some more. A week
