Jack Holt, who Is featured at the
Eltinge today and Saturday in Zane
Grey's Avalanche" is one of the few
western citizens who does not mourn
the passing Of "the old days, the
good old days, the days Of the Golden
West"
Holt, having portrayed the hero
roles in q score Of Zane Grey's dra-
mas, has come closer to the West
than most persons. In addition he
has ranched, ridden range and pros
pected and knows that part Of the
world intimately.
There IS no reason to weep over
the passing Of the western frontier"
he declares. There will always be
outposts Of civiliSation, new places
to explore and settle. No one yet
has lived to tell the world about the
country at the headwaters Of the
Amazon. There are still waste places
In the far north and in the far south
upon which no man has set foot.

and Alaska steamship companies were here a short time ago, and will attend the meeting which have been called to meet at Val deg and Cordova.
 The matter under discussion was concerning the immediate be- ginning of the work on two ho- telS, one to be situated at the Mc- Kinley Park station and the other at Copper Mountain in the Park, both for the accommodation Of tourists to Alaska. The Park Service Architect has been spend ing several weeks on the ground finishing the plans for both, which, if carried out, will repre- sent a cost of around $60,OOO and $7O,OO0 each.
 At the station the plans call for Shunting the clutter of ware houses, and other buildings, now on the West of the track to the East side and further North, and building on the ground thus va cated.
 At Copper Mountain in the Park the erection of the build ing there is handicapped by the fact that the road in the Park has not been extended that far yet, someestimating there was about 45 miles yet to build, and which would require, at the pre- sent rate of construction, about 10 years to reach the mountain.
 No agreement was reached at the meeting here and the special train high-balled for the South at 6:34 in the evening.
 The Park superintendent and architect left on the train for Valdez where the next meeting will be held and if no solution IS arrived at another meeting will take place in Cordova.
 The architects plans of the new buildings show and hand some and pleasing structure and in keeping with the other build lngs in National Parks Outside. The plans are drawn so that ad- dltional rooms can be added from time to time, to care for the in creasing travel to Alaska, and in no way spoil the appearance or symmetry of the buildings.
