 Through correspondence Rev. Gregory Morony has found an Eskimo village over in Alaska that has sent word that they can be used there.
 They are being forwarded.

KODIAK |. DIARY

Everyone celebrates the con- ing of the New Year in his own approved fashion (by the way, how did you feel the next day?) but when a woman came into the office just before the years eve and asked to borrow our large iron ladle we thought that was entering into the Spirits of things just little too. When she tried to borrow some of our precious lead additionally we had to know all
 It seems a party was planned and the custom was to be ob- served as follows: each guest, just after the witching hour of midnight, woul1 ] melt some lead III Cne ladle, then pour It into a tub of cold water. The lead would form in crazy designs, and the group would try to see patterns and shapes in the de- signs that would indicate some thing of the future.
 Since we were so tight with our lead the lady procured sold CT, which worked very well, she reported on returning the bor- rowed implement.
 And each guest took the fan tastic metal pattern home as souvenir. Which made us doubly glad that we hadn't made the 'loan".

 You are privileged to add your own comment of course.

we heard tell of.

Lots of enthusiasts have been indulging in ice skating off and on the past few weeks on the various lakes about town. The other day, however, we saw two little girls with their ice skates on using the icy surface of main street as skating pond.
 We have also seen a number use the icy surface of the main street for skating-without skates. And sitting down, tobog- gaming, without the toboggan.
 All in all it gives one a very creepy feeling.
