 than repaid him for the trip. He and Brown did not try to reach the fourth lake which heads the series, as it requires a two-day pack with hard going up boulder-strewn creek which connects the third and fourth lakes and they did not have the time to spare. The uppermost lake is described as being region of surpassing beauty, swarming with wild fowl and animal life.
 On his trip North five years ago, Mir Beamer was accompanied by his wife and a son and daughter. The family are world travellers and have delighted equally in visiting the more widely known places and polk ing about at odd times into the out of way places. They were unani- nous in declaring that the Alaska trip was the most beautiful for the longest duration of anything they had known.
 MT. Beamer travels with an open mind. He has followed the god of the wandering foot from a youth. Thirty-five years ago he arrived in Honolulu from his home in Wa bash, Indiana, on bicycle trip around the world, intending to use steamers only for the space be- tween lands. but an accident befell him in Hilo, and there he has lived ever since He has been Identified with various industrial develop ments on the island. but his main interest has been in the mercantile business.
 He left Wednesday on the Bar rington Transportation Company boat for the round trip to Telegraph Creek. He said he became interest ed in the trip from accounts he read in outdoor magazines of the one trip in the world where the traveller can have all the comforts of good boat and cruise along a narrow river between mountains of unusual beauty, with literally dozens of glaciers gleaming along the rims and upper valleys and in comparable scenery that cannot be adequately described every moment of the way.
 He hopes to see the moose, griz- zly bear, and mountain sheep that are usually seen at close range on the trips, but the Barringtons could not guarantee him this pleasure, for the wild life while abundant, comes and goes very much as it pleases. Neither did General Mana ger Smith tell him that he could de- pend upon a very decided wildness on the part of the captain If an att tractive girl were aboard. That was left for him to find out for himself.
