KODIAK, ALASKA, JULY 19, 1863

We were of course highly ap preciative of the magnificent beau ty and scenery of Kodiak Island, and consider it one of the most beautiful spots on earth. Also we were amazed at the generous and warm hospitality of the people of your community who gave us the finest and friendliest greeting and treatment of any place we have visited so far" said Pomeroy.
 However, odd as it might seem, we were tremendously impressed at finding an operation like Naugh- tons Bakery in such a small town way off in the North Pacific. It was a first class surprise to us to dis cover Naughton's first class oper- ation and we are still mystified at how in the world they could pos sibly put out such an amazing variety of products and still main- tain a gourmet's quality in every item. It is a rarity to find such an operation even in great metro politan centers of the world and we wonder if the people here realize and appreciate what they have" Pomeroy said before departing for the Pribolof Islands, adding i've were especially impressed with their Russian Rye bread which we have seen advertised in national magazines"
 The Naughton's presented the Pomeroys with samples of their bakery products, smoked red sal mon and jellieS made from local berries by Mrs. Emma Naughton, their mother. Before departing the

 Small Marine Zoo Fascinates Kids

Ever wonder whether an octo- pus could catch fish as it swan by or whether a crab would try to eat an octopus? For that matter have you ever seen a real, live, honest to-goodness octopus or scallop?
 We'll, if your curiosity gets the best of you and you MUST know such things, you now have your chance to observe such creatures in the aquarium located at the Ko- diak Suppliers in the Deveau Elec- tronics building.
 The aquarium, into which fresh sea water is constantly pumped, is so constructed that the glass side of it appears to be window facing the small boat harbor. It now con- tains variety of sea life which has been drawing crowds, particularly
 Aildren who obviously are fascin- ated.
 The youngsters who have spent hours watching for the octopus to indicate hunger were finally re- warded and are now able to assure you that an octopus CAN snatch a fish swimming by it cause they watched as a snaky tentacle lashed out aud wound itself around pas sing herring and pulled the help less fish down to it's sharp and vicious beak where it tore into the herring's intestines and devoured some organ "It'S heart" said one lad 'sNo, it's liver" said another"
 At another hungry or angry mo- ment, the octopus (easily the most popular creature in the living dis play) suddenly wrapped itself around a meandering dungeness crab.
 Carl Rodli, proprietor of Kodiak Suppliers advised that he has been told that live dungeness crab are dropped into aquariums as food

Mirror Ad Causes Nauehton Rush

Advertising in the Kodiak Mfr TOT pays off according to Naugh- tons Bakery.
 Last week Naughton's ran an ad announcing the opening of their new delicatessen and were so swamped with customers during the weekend that they ran out of number of their speciality items.
 we did not anticipate such a great response and are hoping that our suppliers were able to ship the items we ran out of in time for this weekend.
 Naughton's Bakery and Deleca- tesSan drew words of high praise from visitors aboard the sleek yacht Nereus whose skipper-own- CT, Bill Pomeroy, stayed over an exxtra day to enable his wife to tour the plant before departing.

for the pulsating octopus which promptly drop over them and de- vour them. "The crab somhow are aware there is an octopus in the water the minute they hit the wa ter and become frantic" Rodli said.
 The aquarium here however con- tains many crabs, dungeness. king, tanner and spider, and only one little octopus and they seem to have become rather accustomed to the unacceptable proximity of one another. Further they have to share the 8 foot long tank with her ring, jelly fish, and as soon as they are brought in, clans and scallops.
 Pete Deveau, who sparked the building of the sea aquarium ex- pressed great pleasure over it's success to date and said that he hoped that it would be forerun- ner of a much larger aquarium ven- ture one capable of containing sea and land otter, seals, dolphins and p0rp0ises most anything that lives in our Kodiak area wa ters."
 'I think such an aquarium would prove out to be one of the biggest tourist attractions Kodiak could offer besides being highly educational for the young people of our community" Deveau stated.
