M. D. Williams, Hoonah baker, and Miss Margaret Clark, of Ju- neau, were married by Rev. E.. E. Bromley on December 4.
 Hoonah people blessed the wis dom of the early Thlingets who planted the town in "the shelter from the north wind" as "Hoonah" is translated.

Henry Moy of the Celtic came in from Juneau Sunday. He reported Rocky Island as giant ice cone standing sentinel in stormy Lynn Canal.
 The Estebeth spent three days here this trip. The stormy weather and extreme cold caused her to ice over. She was forced to return to shelter each time she ventured into Icy Straits. This may cause her to miss the southbound boat at Juneau upon her return. Many States relatives and friends of the islanders will have late Christmas greetings this fall.

Critchfeld Arrives on North Star-to Be Tn Terri
 tory Two Weeks
DANISH VESSEL BOMBED

Coming north for no one particular bit of business. but mainly just to see conditions in Alaska in order to better understand problems that may come up concerning the Ter ritory, H. M. Critchfield is now in Juneau for a few days, having ar rived from the States this morning aboard the Indian Bureau motor ship North Star. He is accompanied by Mrs. Critchfield, and is staying here at the Gastineau Hotel.
 MT. Critchfield is Supervisor of Credit for the Bureau of Indian Affairs. He has charge of all Bu- reau funds except those for Educa- tion and for the Medical Depart ment. Right now" he said, "the main funds our department has in charge are those under the new Wheeler Howard Indian Re-Organ- ization Act, though there are some tribal revenues and other minor &C., counts"
 MT. Critchfield stated that he brought no news of any contemplat- ed changes or new developments of the Bureau in Alaska, as he has been away from Washington, D. C., since June, visiting various districts in the States. He would like, he said, to spend about two weeks in Alaska and see as much of the Territory as he can within that time. "It is sure that we will have to have a credit representative in Alaska perman- ently soon, however," he said.
 T have already seen some of AL aska coming up on the North Star he avowed, "arld both Mrs. Critch- field and I found it very much to our liking. Before heading north we were promised rain all the way, but we are not disappointed that we had fine weather most of the time. Alaska is too beautiful coun- try to attempt to describe. I have seen quite bit of scenery in my travels, but none, I believe, that can equal that in the section around Petersburg.
