Have you ever stood before cage in the zoo and felt with con sternation that the animal under your observation was in turn watching you with thoughtful eyes? Did you speculate as to what could be in his mind?
 While watching the passengers and tourists disembark from the Aleutian yesterday, I found myself in the position of the animal whose peculiar habits are being studied.
 With this in mind I returned to the ship late in the evening. That is when 1 discovered that tourists are just people away from home. They can behave in manner in which they could not in their own small circles where their fi- nancial and social standing is well known. For a short time they can live dream, a dream of affluence. They can expand, and patroniZe- they are travellers! They will be icohNt II'oli lol py Cii' ioto friends with a little more respect, greater admiration, because they were not content with a camping trip, but have been to Alaska.
 Chatting here and there, observ- ing (eavesdropping if you wilD I spent very amusing, entertaining and eyeopening evening"
 One group was amazed that we seem to be perfectly happy al- though we are so poor and have to work so hard. We have no nice homes, no paved streets, no recre- ation. They failed to take note of the large number of new automO- piles on the streets, new paint jobs, rich jewelry in the windows, splen- did furs on display. The flew Wo- men who might be clothes con- scious,' were discussed with pity because there is no place to wear good styles if they could be had. There seems to be little disap- pointment because we did not meet the boat in parkas and mukluks. Incidentally, we may be losing a point there. Perhaps we should have a party dressed in native cos tunes to meet all boats just to kid our tourists along a little bit
 Another group had returned from a bus trip to kenai. They had no memories of sky blue lakes and snow peaked mountains, of wind- ing roads and sheer cliffs, of his- torc grounds, nor of engineering feats of construction. They were counting bruises from that awful ride Only one man in this group had taken plane ride with Gentry Shuster. He was enthusiastic over glaciers. lakes, moose, bear, and sheep. He will return.
 All these people leaning over the rail of the ship last night saw the moon setting in a bank of cloud, shimmering path of true gold over the water. They saw the mountains silhouetted against 1
