DEER DRIVE ON STOCKED RANGE
 DISAPPOINTING
Only Four Animals Found on Long Island Where
 Large Number Reported

Just what happened to the re- ported hundreds of deer on Long Island, is question that the Alas ka Game Commission would appre- , ciate having answered. Stocked with IA animals in 1923, for the past two years reports have been received by the Commission that the increase was so large that the island was becoming overstocked and removal of the surplus was urged.
 Early this month Warden Homer Jewell assembled a crew of 40 men to drive the island for the purpose of taking off the excess deer and planting them in other localities in that district. The crew engaged in the work combed the island as completely as the brush and woods would permit and at the end had seen but four deer.
 Conditions on the island, it was said, made it impossible to get an absolute count, but it is certain that there has been no very great number missed in the checkup, and the results of the drive have con- vinced the Commission that either the reports of increase were greatly exaggerated or that there has been some extensive killing on the island which has been closed to hunting since the deer were planted on it.. Elk Are Moved i, Eight Roosevelt Elk, planted last year at Kalsin Bay, have been moved to the Litnik district on Afognak Island, it was announced today at Commission headquarters. Natural conditions there are re- garded as highly favorable for the experiment.
 The animals were in fine shape and showed an excellent growth since they were put in Kalsin Bay
 Beaver Are Planted
 Twenty-one beaver have been planted on Raspberry Island, in the Afognak district, it was also an- ! nounced. These animals were to have been put in Perenosa Bay, but conditions made it impossible to land there.
 : A chain of three lakes was se- lected on Raspberry Island for the experiment. Feed is abundant and | the country is wooded, making It favorable. There are no furbear- ing animals on the island so there will be no risk to the stock from incidental trapping.
 Beaver planted on Baranof Island near Sitka Hot Springs in 1927, are ,, reported to be steadily increasing. One new colony has been observed establishing itself at a point l2 miles from where the original stock was planted

Chapter 1 MEMORIES

The girl in the copper red eve- ming dress stumbled twice over her partners feet and then stood still in the middle of the deck space that had been cleared for dancing. The man, to whom she had been talking animatedly as they swung in and out amongst the dancers, looked down at her in surprise.
 Barbara Landon was reputed to be the ships best dancer and be- sides being expert in the ballroom she had acquired a reputation for amateur solo dancing as well. He

 Watching her go, Ralph Hender- sons surprise gave place to anger. He felt fool at being deserted in the middle of the dance floor, and it was especially galling that it should have been Barbara Landon who had done it, because of all girls on that ship she was the one he was most anxious to impress

 She looked very small, he thought as she stood there, almost elfinlike, her red brown hair gleaming pure copper under the electric light as though it had taken on Q reflection from the vivid copper red dress. He considered her very attractive.
 Presently, as she showed no signs of rejoining him, Henderson moved over to where her chaperon, Mrs Trenton Jones, sat placidly in hel deck chair, feeding herself on can dy.

strange welding OF old Spanish

the feast III the tiny village Of Tor

night tonight, while tom-toms beat
their call to the ola or promise
dance.
The celebration opened with a
procession in which the indians
carried a figure Of the Virgin. Many
of them carried or wore articles
dating back TO the Spanish con-
quest Of New Mexico.
Throughout the day the dancing
went on. with first one group ana
then another measuring their tread
with the throbbing OF the tom-toms.
