EDUCATOR VISITING
 JUNEAU; IMPRESSIONS
 OF ALASKA ARE MADE

Dr. B. w Bonell, President of St. Johns College, Greeley, Col, ar rived in Juneau this morning on the Dorothy Alexander from Sitka where he has been visiting for the last two weeks
 In commenting on his present trip to Alaska, pr. Bonell said T came here principally to see Taku Gla- cier. and I consider it the most beautiful of all the glaciers I have seen in Switzerland, Norway or Iceland. Taku Glacier stands pre- eminent in my estimation and none of the others can compare with it in respect to beauty and wonderful coloring.
 q also experienced small earth- quake shock in Sitka, which made the house in which was living. rock, rattled the dishes and moved the pictures on the wall. The sight of Taku Glacier, and the earthquake were two experiences which, in themselves, made my trip to Alaska decidedly worth while.
 T found the flowers in Skagwaj dazzling in their beauty, color and size, and I marvelled at the size of the asters, which were as large as chrysanthemums. From what have seen of the country I think ir is advertised far too little.
 While in Juneau Dr. Bonell will He will leave on September 24 for the south to be in time for the opening of St. Johns College, after which he will return to Vancouver to sail on a trip aorund the world returning to Greeley next May.

sway much less on long irons. They

little that some claim their bodies
are absolutely still in the stroking
of this shot.
