NOISE OF CIVILIZATION DRIVES OLDTIMER BACK
 TO POINT BARROW HOME
(Portland Oregonian.)

Civilization is all right for those that like it, but not for Charles De- Witt Brewer, 70, founder and notable citizen of the town of Point Barrow, Alaska-the jumping-off place for Arctic explorers.
 "In fact" he said, q don't like it. I've been down in the States since last fall and I've had enough of it. Pm ready to go home and stay for a while. People move around too much in the cities down here. People are always bustling around and making noise."
 That doesn't mean Mr Brewer Is an uncouth visitor from the wilds- The truth is, he sits in place of honor at the Explorers Club, in New York City, with his dress shirt shin ing, with quite as much aplomb as the next man.
 He is a friend of Steansson and Sir Hubert Wilkins, and of practically every explorer and adventurer of the American arctic. He was a close friend of Amundson and Ben Eielson. He has fitted out many of the expe- ditions into the northern sea-.
 "It's just that I don't care for it down here," he continued. "You see, I went into Northern Alaska in 1884, which is AT years ago. In another three years me and Northern Alaska will celebrate our golden wedding an- niversary.
 'I went there as a. lad of 23 for a San Francisco concern to locate some coal for the whaling ships That first year I made 5000 miles, mostly by dog sled, and I was the first white man ever to go through that northern Alaska country. The coal proposition didn't work out, but was sent back to establish a whaling station at Point Barrow.
 "Those were the old whaling days, with the whaling ships thick on the sea. Sometimes there were wrecks, and I had to look after the survivors until they could he taken away. One winter I had several hundred men saved from whaling ships.
 "But women quit wearing whale bone corsets, and whales became scarce, and the fleet dwindled away. It has entirely disappeared now. Then we gave ourselves over to fur gather ing and the inland trade. In 1906 Amundsen made his first appearance at Point Barrow, and since then it has been the North American head quarters for explorers.
 "Sir Hubert Wilkins took off from my front yard in his flight over the Pole in 1926. It was while he was there that the Norge made it's flight. Sir Hubert had kept in touch with it by radio, and we had it timed within ten minutes when we saw it appear in the sky to the north, like giant cigar. It appeared in bright blue patch in the sky, and l never hope to see anything more beautiful. It passed within six miles of us and ran into storm to the south.
