 McWilliams was supposed to have been lost" alone but a shoe-packed miirer, Dan Dalai, also lost climbed out of the plane with Nc Williams when the ship was tied to the Alaska Air Transport float.
 Have a nice trip?" a friend ribbed McWilliams.
 McWilliams smiled, but said nasty things. He explained he had be- come lost to the extent that he knew where he was, but didn't know where he was going" and so played safe and landed at Echo Cove in Berners Bay.
 Greeted by Lost" Miner He taxied to the beach before Winter and Ponds cabin at the head of the cove and was greeted by miner Dan Dalai, who explained he also was lost.
 Dalai had started out from Eagle River yesterday morning by the Echo Cove Trail to go to Dr. l.. P. Dawes mine, The Betsy, back of Yankee Cove, but had taken the wrong trail and had continued on the fourteen miles to Echo Cove without finding mine.
 McWilliams spent the night with his plane at Echo Cove and with Dalai aboard, flew in this morning. The inspector smilingly admitted that he was not hungry. He'd eaten sourdough pancakes this morning aboard Jack Westfall's boat, with which Arthur Reed is grabbing in Echo Cove.

NO SOLUTION IN SEPARATION


 R. w. Seton Watson, writing in the current issue of Foreign Af- fairs says: 'The detachment of these (mountains) from Czechoslo- yakia would have left unsolved the two main difficulties: that the ma jor part of the land inside the pres ent boundaries is inseparably bound by geographical and economic ties with central Bohemia. and that no human ingenuity has hitherto availed to draw possible ethno- graphic line between German and Czech"
 Seton- -Watson's article is pro- Czech, but his view on this is shared widely here.

1t Is frozen mist or water vapor.
OF thousands of snowfakes which
have been photographed, no two
have been exactly alike. Nature
seems to delight in making new
forms.
Although most snowflakes have
dx sides or points, it would be
mistake to say that all of them are
that way. In some snowfalls the
fakes are of triangular shape.
These flakes are formed in very high
clouds when the temperature is
about zero Fahrenheit.
Snowfakes differ great deal in
size. Some are so small that Is of
them side by side would measure
only l inch. Others are a half-inch,
or even an inch wide. The large
ones are apt to fall when the air
is not very cold.
Snow does not weigh nearly 50

weight Of snow is not always the

closely packed, they weigh far more

which are snowclad in midsummer.
The Alps, the Andes and the Rockies
are only q few of the mountain
ranges with such peaks.
The line around q peak which
marks the lower edge Of the sum-

is high line in the torrid zone
and q low line in the Arctic.
In the torrid zone the snow line
is more than 3 miles above sea
level. Some Of the high parts Of

certain peaks in Central America
are high enough to have snow
