KODIAK i. DIARY ...

When Captain H. L. Oakes, stationed on navy vessel out of 8 port to the Westward, was intro duced as a guest at the Rotary club Tuesday by his host, Sid Old, he mentioned the name of the vessel he is on, and thus It was brought to light that 2l years ago deputy U. s. Marshal Paul Herring saw service on the same vessel.
 To forestall any thought that we might be giving away military information on any of the Navy's capital ships, we have seen phot- ographs that prove Paul Herring was not as large 21 years ago as he is now.

We are behind in our extra curricular reading by two books, both borrowed, and 15 magazines, which explains why we just got to the June issue of Outdoor Life and discovered the article by Col. William D. Frazer, formerly of Fort Greedy, titled Cure for the Brown Bear Blues".
 In It the colonel tells how he got his Kodiak bear, illustrated. The pictures show the colonel, Eli Metrokln, his guide, and the bear.
 Col. Frazer, the magazine tells us, won the Leech Cup match (rIfe) and the all-round U. $. championship {riie, pistol, and shotgun), earned the ratings of Distinguished Pistol Shot and Distinguished Marksman, was a member of the U. s.
