Facts About Alaska

Alaska is about one-fifth the size
OF the United States, with federal re-
serve lands full of fine timber. The
winter temperatures at Juneau are
the same as at st. Louis, Mo. A great
fishing industry is located there. Two
thousand species of native flowers,
moose, deer, caribou and brown bear
are to be found by the hunters. Very
interesting are the salmon canneries,
the blue fox ranches and seal herds.
while the scenery is nothing short of
majestic.

Home Of the Flamin1os

F'lamingos are natives of the ma
hogany swamps of Cuba and the
islands in the Bahamas. Contrary to
popular belief they are not migratory
birds. They formerly were found in
overwhelming numbers in Cuba and
the Bahamas but so many we're killed
for their beautiful plumage and be-
cause they are such tender food that
hey are rapidly becoming extinct.

DUNDEE ISLAND. Antarctica, No.
vember l4.-Dundee Island has been
a lucky find. The Polar Star. my air.
plane, in which I hope to fly across
Antarctica, Is now resting on the solid
snow above the island.
Tuesday night we slung the plane
from the deck of the motor ship
Wyatt carp to the fiat bay ice and
dragged her a half mile to the shore.
Today, If the weather holds, we will
make some short flights.
At 3 o'clock Tuesday morning we
passed through a maze Of icebergs to
reach Antarctica Sound. Some of
the bergs we're a good $50 feet above
the water line. A series OF curious
small cyclonic columnar snowstorns
were being driven by high wind to-
ward the sun, which. at that time.
was just rising in the southeast. Each
storm blanketed the scene about us.
and as each one passed the suns rays
caught the vertical faces of the ice
bergs and flashed a colored signal.
Evening star., 1935-11-14

They appeared like a string of fash
ing beacons showing us the way.
It was a good omen, for we came to
the northwest of Dundee Island to
find a practically level area a few
feet above sea level. triangular IN
shape, which affords a runway Of
about l 200 yards in each direction. BY
taking advantage of the fiat bay ice,
which is still four feet thick, we can
get a mile-long runway in SOUTH
west-northeast direction. 1t is an
almost ideal field and easily accessible.
