Acting under the rules of the de- partment of agriculture, which provide that a man can fire in de- fense of his home even though the Kodiak bear is protected. he laid the killer low. Olds tackled the pelt on the barn door and underneath it printed instructions to all bears to stay away from there unless they were coming just to pick berries.

STAFF-CAPT. ACTON RETURNS HOME FROM
 VISIT TO YAKUTAT

Staff-Captain J. Acton returned the latter part of the week from Yakutat. Much expectancy was displayed in connection with his visit to Yakutat, this being the first visit of a white officer to the Salvation Army Corps there. He arrived on the steamer, Admiral Watson, on a Sunday afternoon. It appeared that the whole town had turned out to welcome him, a great crowd with a band being at the dock. The Staff-Captain was the guest of MT. Clausen, superin- tendent of the Libby, McNeill & Libby Company's cannery at Yak utat.
 Practically the whole town as- sembled for the first public event. a lecture, and also a welcome to some newcomers. This welcome meeting had been arranged by the Staff-Captain as the new arrivals had been fellow passengers aboard the Watson. The newcomers were U. s. Bureau of Education employ ees and were Mrs. Hoffman, Public Health Nurse, and Miss Ragge, school teacher. Both ladies were from Seattle and were welcomed to their respective tasks by leading citizens of Yakutat on behalf of the community. Music was rem dered at intervals during the eve ming by a Filipino orchestra and the Salvation Army band.
 A splendid work is being carried on at Yakutat, the Staff Captain reports, by Envoy William Stew art. Perhaps the most interesting event, at any rate, to the Salva- tionists. was the opening and the dedication of the new Army Hall. The townsfolk, both white and na- tive, have contributed generously both of money and labor to make this building possible.
 The Staff-Captain presented En- yoy Stewart with a Long Service Badge for twenty-three years of unbroken Salvation Army service The Commissioning of local off scers and the infant dedication were also of great importance. Many new branches of activity, including the Young Peoples Work and Home League for women, were or. ganized during the Staff Captains visit. He also gave a lecture illus. trated by 100 stereoptican views which was enjoyed by the whole population.

plane flew over the peaks and an altitude of 5000 feet was main- tained. The view of the Stikine River and of innumerable glaciers not seen from the river was one of breath-taking majesty. Great Gla- cier stretches away as a vast ice river with numerous little blue lakes nestling at intervals on it's surface. At that altitude, soon af- ter leaving the river, they were able to see the headwaters of nu- merous tributaries of the Stikine and Clearwater.
 MT. Anderson thought it was a country of wonderful mineral pos abilities and while this was his first experience in the air, said 1t was the only way to prospect such a vast, rough country as the Sti- kline District, and what he saw from the air during the last hour of the trip would enable him to save months of time prospecting as the mineral belt was easy to dis tinguish.
 When the seaplane descended to Glacier Lake it's altimeter dis closed that the lake lies at an alti- tude of 2500 feet, which is much higher than it had been considered by several who had spent some time in that vicinity.
