 MT. Kirney has lately returned from Candle after completely tri- poding the winter mail trail from the mouth of the koyuk river to point seven miles south of Can de, where the trail strikes the keewalik river, which is followed from there to Candle.
 This trail has been considered dangerous for long time on ac- in the past many mushers have been lost over this stretch of trail. Now, since it has been tri- poded there is no chance of travel CTS being lost It is now staked with spruce tripods g feet long, and these are spaced about 15o feet apart In the Spring MT. Kin hey will again cover this section after the snow has gone, to make sure that all the tripods are still upright and solid.
 During this work. MT. Kinney states that the thermometer varied from 2n to Gi below zero.
 Numerous favorable comments on the excellence of this piece of work have reached Nome by trav- .lers from that section,
 The route tripoded covers total of 72 miles and runs from the mouth of the koyuk river to Dime Landing; thence to Haycock: thence to Quartz creek via Sweepstakes: thence to Candle via Snyter's ol6 roadhouse on the keewalik river.

 And feel itself at home. But guess | was kind of lone some
 And wanted for to roam. We're just as kind as can be
 0 the bucks that come aur way Yet somehow We cant keep them, They sorta drift away Some day We hope to find one.
 A buck that wants to stay And live with us forever.
 Forever and d day.

THE LIFE OF
 ST. LAWRENCE
 ISLAND ESkim0S

musicians sat in a row, playing on drums shaped like tambourines, made by stretching skin tightly ov- CT a hoop about two feet in diam eter. Each man pounded his drum with rod and sang changing the expression of his voice according to the story of the song. All wore gloves of skin. The dancing was largely series of pastures in which the arms are swung this way and that. They kept time to the music by stamping their feet on the floor Later one woman joined the dance to show that she was rel ative to these men. She kept time Dy bending her knees and swing ing her arms. After the dance was over we went outside for an eXhib- ition of blanket tossing. Forty of the men surrounded walrus hide about fifteen feet square holding it low. A boy jumped into the mid dle of the hide He stood upon his feet and at word they jerked the hide taut. sending him mp into the air. AS he fell they came closer together, then again threw them selves back tossing him higher. continuing to do so as long as he could keep his feet. A girl took his place and was tossed into the air amid the hilarity of her friends. She had been practicing ever since she was small and therefore won the contest. The blanket tossing and dancing are very much the same as the mainland game except that We celebrate by tossing only when whale is caught.
 The leaders of St Lawrence Els kimos organized Cooperative Reindeer Commercial Company pay ing big dividends on furs and car rying ivory to the stock holders. It is the most prosperous of all native stores.
 There was but one family which had lived as Christians there. since Dr. and Mrs. Campbell went out, after being there for nine years. Mir. Nickerson organized . Sun day School and Christian Endeavor Society and before he Jeff there were about forty young Christians On that Island Missionaries are more needed on that Island than any other place on the north, m part of Alaska.
