Utah Visitors Astounded
Members OF the Mormon mis-
sion from Utah warmly praised
Juneau for the hospitality and
courtesies shown them since their
arrival. Mr.. Meek's assertion
that 1T has been a revelation to
me to see these communities on
the Alaskan coast with modern
conveniences and fine and COM

by his companions. He said he
had been wondering why the
chambers OF commerce of Alas
kan towns did not unite to put
out a different advertising pro-
gram and place the real Alaska
before the people Of the United
States. He suggested that the
Chamber might be Of assistance
to tourists by erecting signs at
the docks with the name OF the
town and information relative to

Visitors are invited to visit the

only one on which a special pro-
gram will be arranged, with the
exception of the following Sun
day.
Having Good Time
Not a drop OF ram fell letw zen
Tuesday noon and Thursday eNe-
ming, and the boys at the camp
have been thoroughly enjoying
themselves. They have had an
excursion to Salt Lake at the
Eagle River landing, have been
in swimming each day except
Tuesday, and have passed severa!
tests, among them two second
class, three first class, and one
merit badge.
Although the cook originally
hired fer the camp was not atlc
to make the trip, the substitute
cook is reported as every bit as
good, and the kitchen is place
of activity Among other things,
fresh king salmon has been serv-.
ed at mess.
An cupboard motor and two
rowboats are included in the
camp equipment this year, through
the courtesy of S. Hellenthal and
the Alaska Game Commission,
and other government branches
furnished nearly 100 new blankets
and large mosquito bars to cover
sleeping quarters.

Nelson Relterates Plans
Mr.. Nelson, who purchased, this
week, the Triangle Corner and
the Pond property on Front
Street. told the Chamber that the
building plans were exactly as
had appeared earlier this week
in the Empire. These call for a
three-story building on the Pond
lot and at least a four-story struc.
ture on the Triangle Corner. Both
will be of modern, concrete con.
struction. Work will start on the
three-story building as quickly as
detailed plans can be drawn up
and materials and labor obtained,
he said.
Mr.. Nelson declared juneau has
a great future as tourist censar.
The Daily Alaska empire. [volume] (Juneau, Alaska) 1926-1964, 1928-06-08

that will take him into many
parts of Alaska to make magnetic
readings for the Coast & Geodetic
Survey. He will leave tomorrow
for Skagway and go down the Yu-
kon River, making trips UP many
of the sidnstreams almost the en-
tire length of the main stream.
The installation OF modern
and larger seismograph instru-
ment at the Sitka station, he said,.
would be a boon to Alaska. 1t
would enable the station to show
to the world that there are no
destructive earthquakes in Alas
ka, that they are all long-distance
trem5lors.

make a valuable addition to the
Territory II they should establish
themselves in it.
Books Misleading
School books used in States
schools carry misleading informa-
ton about Alaska, declared Mr..
Judd, who came north with the
expectation of seeing frozen
land, largely inhabited with Eski-
mos and polar bears. He was
agreeably surprised that the con-
ditions here were different from
those depicted in most literature.
Alaskan towns are as uptodate
and modern as those of the
States, he commented. In fact,
after covering some 1000 miles
from Utah to Seattle by auto, he
saw his first watermelons of the
season in local stores.
He hailed the Territory as a
tourists mecca. There is no place
| know of that can equal it for
scenic beauty, he declared. Much
of the millions of dollars spent
by American tourists in
Europe should be diverted here.
The hospitality of Alaskans ex-
ceeds that OF ANY people he had
in years Of travel,
said Mr.. Englestead, and Mr..
nlowman, who said his home was
. town of $500 people. declared
he ..'felt right at home" in juneau.
