weeds and worms. When impatient
at the way things are going, he
squawks, and when pleased, he gives
voice to bird-like twitter.
As a rule, the COATS travel in troops.
If taken when young, they make
very affectionate pets. They get very
lonely and welcome company, being
rather more gentle in their actions
at this time.
Though any one first seeing the
coatimundi may have an idea the
fellow is stupid or at least surly, the
looks are deceiving As a matter Of
1act, the animal uses his head in a
very Intelligent manner.
II q collar Is placed about the
neck, with an idea OF leading the
animal or Of holding him captive, he
merely watches you intently, permits
you to take every precaution to adjust
the fastening, and then with a calm,
collected, bored expression, he lifts
his front feet and pulls the offending
collar over his head He will lift
latches or squeeze through small
openings.
When a desirable object is out of
reaching distance of his front feet. he
merely turns his back on 1t and uses
MS tail to bring it closer.
Many who see the coatimundi for
the first time ask, What is it?"
Perhaps you are thinking the same
thing.
Some one has called the animals
snookum bears. They are the size of
q raocoon, with family ringed tails,
taper-like SHOUTS. strong tusks, and
coarse, hoary-tipped hair coats
shading to reddish-brown underneath.
The black feet have bear-like claws.
which enable the animal to dig into
the soil and to hold fast to the tree
bark. A long, flexible nose. that curves
up or down, accordin. to the desire of
its owner, is another startling feature.
The round ears and the bright ewes
seem only to add to the clownish ap-
pearance of the pointed face, streaked
with orange and yellow.

There would be lots Of fun watching

Weather Today
 {U. s. Weather Bureau)

Mostly c,oudy weather prevail ed over the western section of the Nome-Fairbanks AirWay but ceiling and visibility conditions were showing improvement at ? am. Fair skies prevail over east ern Alaska, the Aleutians and a. long the gulf of Alaska.
 Temperatures continue below zero over central and eastern AL aska but as a rule they are above zero over Seward Peninsula. The lowest temperature reported last night was -26 at Dawson; Fair banks reported -2l; Nenana-20 Flat-15; Kotzebue-14.
 Relatively high barometric pre- ssure covers Alaska and the Der ing Sea district extending south eastward with the crests charted at oint Barrow and near Atka. This distribution will likely cause a continuation of cloudy and un- settled weather over western All aska with not much temperature change. Increaseing winds from the northeast are indicated
 The lowest Nome temperature last night was above and the highest yesterday IA above. Forty three inches of snow remain on the ground at Nome.
