CHAMBER EXCURSION VIA
 HOT SPRINGS 4 SUCCESS
 --SEnIC TRIP OF NORTH

The Chamber of Commerce ex- cursion, which left Nome on Tues day, August 18th, at noon, on the Motorship Donaldson, of the Arctic Transportation Co.,, returned to Nome Sunday evening at six o'clock via the railroad route, and was pronounced decided success in every way.
 The Donaldson leaving Nome plowed it's way steadily to Teller the ocean trip being very delight full, owing to favorable weather most of the way. Due to the fact that previous to the sailing of the vessel. the wind had kicked up a considerable sea and several who contemplated going on the journey changed their minds.
 The excursionist reached Teller at 1:30 a. m. the following morn ing, but owing to the early hour of the arrival. the party was made comfortable aboard the vessel. until FOO a. m. Upon going ashore they were greeted by the entire population of Teller who were glad of the opportunity to welcome the first Nome Chamber of Commerce excursion. The party opened head quarters at the Lomen Reindeer Corporation hotel and store and were made guests of the company during their stay at Teller.
 Between Nome and Teller the ex- cursionists were made very com fortable on top of the cabin of the Donaldson. and sweet strains of popular Victrola music was enjoy ed until sundown. After viewing Sledge Island and the coastal seen cry, the next point of interest was Cape Rodney. and by the time that Cape Spencer was rounded. brisk wind had sprung up and Boring Sea became rough but not uncom- fortable, as it lasted only short time before the vessel entered Port Clarence Bay. After crossing this stretch of water and viewing the mountains close by. they entered into Grantley Harbor, the port of Teller.
 The day was spent in visiting the different places of interest in and around Teller. The newly com pleted landing field was examined and found in first class shape. Captain Thomas Peterson, of the Teller Commercial Company. kind ly took charge of the excursionists and with his fast and palatial yacht piloted them around the Bay mak- ing stops at places of interest. Ev- eryone fin Teller seems to be busy and optimistic and many new de- velopments have been made and much prospecting is being done.
 The party returned to Teller in time for dinner, the cuisine of which, could not have been surpass- ed in many places in the States. and was heartily enjoyed by all. after which dancing was indulged in. MT. and Mrs. Undem, who are in charge of the Lomen Co.'S. store were untiring in their efforts to make their stay pleasant and the entire party is unanimous in their appreciation of the kind treatment received while at Teller.
 The party left Teller early Thurs day morning in charge of Captain Peterson, with his two motorboats Fleetwood and Fleetwing, crossing Grantley Harbor. going through the Tuksuk Narrows. and round point after point, then Antering Salt Lake spellbound under the lee of the mighty Saw Tooth Range, until the whole length of this thirty mile lake was passed.
