Where Radio Helps

Throughout the trip down the
River of Doubt, Dyott was in
touch with world events through
the use Of his radio apparatus,
which he found Invaluable. he
said, for the simple reason that
was able to send back dis
patches as to my whereabouts at
all times, and to receive musical
programs and news events over
the short-waye broadcasting sta
tions from the United States and
Europe. In my coming trip shall
naturally resort to the same equip
ment."

BEAVER CATCH
 20.000; VALUE s500.000

On estimates based on preliminary reports received by the Alaska Game Commission from it's field wardens, Juneau headquarters announces that up to date about 5000 beaver pelts have been sealed, showing them to have been legally taken. The take of beaver pelts in the limited area of the Territory this year will probably be worth $5O0,0OO if the last market quotations prevail through the sum- mer and fall months. Officials of the commission believe the total take will be not less than 10000 and may reach an even higher figure.

ALASKA FLOWERS USED
 AT PRETTY LUNCHEON

With the banquet table transformed into a veritable flower-bed, and pre- senting lovely picture of multi-tones, reposing beneath festooned greenery, interspersed with other blossoms, the ladies of Seward this afternoon en- tertained as honor guests at luncheon Mrs. J.

 The pretty banquet hall of the Sew ard grill. where the luncheon was giv- en, was made even more alluring by the pretty conceits woven in native flowers. The floral decorations con- sisted of center-pieces of cluster pur- ple iris, showers of pink and purple lupine and cut-glass bowls of wild roses, reposing upon beds of delicate ferns and elkhorn moss, with wood violets from .he mountain-sides peep ing out here and there. Beside each of the 35 covers land was a little cup in which elkhorn moss was nestled in the heart of which reposed little white flower.
 Lengthy garlands of elkhorn moss into which was woven pretty daisies hung suspended above the table, leading from several common centres to the walls and corners of the room Large jardiners of spreading ferns broke the blank spaces in the corners of the room and gave beautiful art istic effect to the entire floral scheme.
 All arrangements for the reception and luncheon were under the direction of Mrs. McMullen and Mrs. Weybrecht, while the floral decorations were un- der the direction of Mrs. McMullen, assisted by Mrs Ray, Mrs. Shaw, Miss Singleton and Miss Cochrane, the lat ter of whom are guests of Mrs. Me Mullen, and Mrs. Weybrecht.
