tions that now obtain is encourag- ing. According to statements pub lished by the company, much of the increase in production made by the Alaska Juneau mine has re- suited from recent operations in deeper sections of the ore body, that, hitherto, have been undevel- oped, and the ore from which has proven to be of materially high CT tenor than the average of that heretofore mined. The existence of extensive reserves of such higher grade ores is indicated by authen- tic data published by the com pany. The importance of such re- serves in determining the value of future output is greatly enhanced by the increased price now re- ceived for gold.
 NeD Development Gains
 Other factors in the favorable outlook are recent preliminary steps that have been taken lock ng toward the establishing of new gold mining enterprises, partlcu- larly in the Berners Bay section of the Juneau Gold Belt; the con- tinued development of many small mining properties scattered throughout Southeast Alaska. parti- cularly on Chichagof Island and in the Ketchikan district; and the growing interest displayed in pros pecting that has resulted from the increased price paid for gold. There is a likelihood that the more fav- orable position now occupied by silver, owing to the increased price for the metal recently established by the President, and the possibil- ity of it's early remonetization, will result in renewed activity in the Hyder district, where many meri- torious silver bearing lodes have already been developed.
 Southeast Alaska as a whole presents an attractive field for prospecting and exploration and many mining properties already known in this region afford favor able opportunities for further in vestigation and development, espec- ially where sufficient capital to launch successful enterprise is available.
 The enhanced value of gold and many recent improvements in the methods of ore treatment and in metallurgical practices, and also in the equipment available for use in the mining and milling of ores, in operations of small as well as large scale, have expanded enor- mously the fields within which

saw the hopeful stampeder come and it saw the hilariously success full seeker after gold go outside to the enjoyment of his riches and it saw the crushed and disappoint- ed ones dragging wearily home failures. It saw the open, honest, manly side of life and the seamy, drab and alley skulking side. It is not to be wondered at that wealth of story and experience lies around Skagway. And as one travels in. from Skagway the intensity of this drama heightens until one reaches Dawson, the place where the suc-' eesses and disasters were born that later' saw in passing.
 Some of this early romance has

 Lou Grade Ores Desirable It has been iinpressively demon strated that material of such low grade that but recently it would have been regarded as worthless if it occurs under conditions fav- orable for large-scale operation can, with skiIlful management, be mined and treated at satisfactory profit These vastly changed and improved conditions affecting the handling of low-grade gold ores offer a challenge for the intensive re-examination of the entire Ju- neau Gold Belt. which contains gold mineralizaflon throughout much of it's nearly 100 miles of length, and of other sections of Southeast Alaska wherein there is likelihood of the occurrence of ex- tensive bodies of similar low grade type.
 Likewise, conditions have prob ably never been as favorable as at present for the development and successful operation of the smaller deposits of gold ores of higher tenor, many of which are already known to exist, and the geologic conditions favorable for the oc- currence of which are so wide- spread, throughout Alaska, includ- ing the Southeast. portion.
 In an able and widely quoted pa- per on prospecting for gold, recent ly prepared for presentation be- fore the American Institute of Mining and Metallurgical Engi- neers, w. H. Emmons, geologist of the University of Minnesota, sum- marizes the principal features of the geological settings that ac- company the occurrence of gold- bearing ores in most of the great gold-mining districts of the earth While this paper deals primarily with what are known as the shield areas" of Canada, Siberia, Southern Rhodesia and Western Australia, the major conclusions reached with respect to the occurrence of gold ores are equally applicable, as En- mons states, to the Mother Lode district of California, in the same class with which the gold lode deposits of Southeast Alaska are stated by recognized authorities to fall. E5
 Shields Are Explained
 Emmons states: "All shield areas of the earth are characterized by large areas of granite rocks, in- cluding granite gneisses, grandi- orites and other acid intrusives which are here included in tEe general term granite The gran-- ties are intruded into schists, an- cient lavas and other rocks which are here designated invaded rocks. The granites are parts of what were once great batholiths; that is they are the remaining portions of great deep-seated bodies that slope outward, have very irregular roofs and so far as known have no floors, but extend downward to great unknown depths. Some of them are scores of hundreds of miles across and contain islands or roof pendants of the invaded rocks at places where the roofs of the batholiths are low-that is, where erosion has not yet completely un- roofed the batholiths. aher
 ''It is in these islands of older rocks and in the narrow marginal belts and cupolas of the batfoliths that practically. all of the gold de-

 in the islands and the majority of
 the most productive districts are
 near small stock-like intrusives of
 the granites or of porphyriesi that
 are enclosed in the invaded rocks
 or near fingers of the granite
 rocks that extend inward from the
 larger masses into the invaded
 rocks. The most valuable deposi
 Its, moreover, seem to be located
 around smaller stock-like intryis-
 ives, whereas the larger ones are
 generally associated with less pro-
 ductiye lodes.' I
 Apply to Alaska siafy
 These observations by Emmons afford valuable guides in the search
 for gold ores and should be found
 applicable in Alaska, where in many localities, geologic conditions exist that are strikingly like those described by Emmons as charac- terizing the great gold districts of the earth. The granite mass that borders the coast of Southeast Alaska throughout it's extent con- stitutes portion of an immense batholith which forms the core of the Coast Range of mountains and probably underlies most if not all of Southeast Alaska, including the islands of the archipelago. The outlying granite masses that form the cores of the principal niouri- tain ranges of the larger islands of the archipelago, including Prince of Wales, Kupreanof, Admiralty, Baranof and Chichagof islands, are recognized as probable sum- mits or cupolas forming portions of the irregular roof of the under lying batholith that have invaded ! the overIying rocks and have be- come exposed by erosion. Not only in the invaded rocks of the coastal section of Southeast AL aska, wherein the Juneau Gold Belt lies, but on each of the ma jor islands of the archipelago and also on many of the smaller ones at many known localities, are found the smaller stocklike intrusives such as Emmons states character ize the localities at which the most valuable gold deposits of the greatest gold-bearing districts of the shield areas occur. ,= ee
 Geologic mapping of the coastal and island areas of Southeast AL aska on a scale that would reveal individual localities probably most favorable for the occurrence of gold , ores is very incomplete Through out the entire region soil, heavy forest growths, and other svegeta- ton, mantle and obscure the bed rock formations. Prospecting and intensive exploratory work that has ! been carried on in the past has been confined largely to the irn- mediate vicinity of the shore-lines of the coasts, to such stream val leys as are accessible with cofn- parative ease, and to the upper {, sections of few of the mountain ] ranges where vegetation and soil do not cover the bedrock forma- tions. The fields for prospecting ! for gold deposits that remain un- explored in Southeast Alaska are I extensive and al1uring, and are of type that justifies the expendi- ture of effort necessary to pene- trate them and disclose their hid den possibilities.

Skag,uay, Gate Way
 to Yukon

Possibly the straightest natural ocean canal in the world, Lynn Canal. has its outer and southern end just outside Douglas Island across from Juneau. Straight as a draughtman's line it runs for about ninety miles in a direction slightly west of north. Along it's shores is some of the finest scenery of the inside passage.
 At its northern end it divides into two fingers, the longer and western finger ending at the now practically abandoned town of Dyea, that jumped into newspaper headlines with the announcement of the Klondyke gold strike at Dawson. Dyea was the ocean port for the Chilkoot Trail, the only trail known at that time across the Coast Mountains to the Yukon River headwaters
 ! The eastern shorter finger of Lynn canal ends at Skagway. Ear ly in the Klondyke stampede the location engineers for what was to become the White Pass and Yu- kon Railway, located the White Pass and it became quickly evident that it was an easier pass than the Chilkoot. Also the disaster of the great snow slide at Sheep Camp with a large loss of life, helped to bring the White Pass into prom thence. From that time on Dyea began to die and Skagway to thrive.
 Skagway is a city today similar to the other Alaskan coast cities. It has fine wharves, pretty houses along regular laid out streets, a good fire department and good water, electric light and telephone system. It lies in a broad flat val ley surrounded by high mountains, their peaks far above timber line. The Skagway river runs along the west side of the city at the foot of A. B. Mountain, so named for the fact that during certain snow conditions, up near the peak of the mountain, deep canyons in the rock filled with snow spell out the two letters "A. B." This was the inspiration for the name of the Arctic Brotherhood formed at Skagway and which flourished throughout the interior of Alaska and the Yukon during the early days.
 The townsite of Skagway being an old river bed contains iii places very rich soil and this combined with the long summer daylight contributes to produce flowers, of astonishing size and ravishing beauty, and vegetables that not only have the unsurpassed quality of all the northern produce but have enormous size as well. 2 Through the efforts of some of Skagway's citizens, whose hobby it is. Skagway is famous over the entire north American continent for it's flowers. These flowers have captured trophies at flower expo sitions as far away as San Fran cisco.
 But probably transcending even its mountain setting or it's flower gardens, it's historical associations take the interest of the visitor. Skagway was the transfer point from ocean to trail and later to rail of the shortest and least irk- some of the many difficult roads to the wealth of the Klondyke. A vast horde of people knew it. It
