Poole W. M,. Spivey bad charge of the Tryon Kiwanis Club program Tuesday ait 1 p. m., at Oak Hiall and introduced Col. Tom Poole, who showed pictures of Aleutian Islands and gave a verbal outline of life and conditions of these Alaskan Islands where he was stationed during the recent war. Col. Poole presented scenes of gorgeous sunsets behind mountains thousands of feet high, and of beautiful mountain lakes, tundra and fire grass, a colony of fur seals, ocean shore lines that rise straight up for 1,500 feet. There are few very few beaches. Fishing and fur raising are the chief in dustries ; no trees except a few planted at Dutch Harbor. The Aleutians comprise about 150 islands and are a part of southern Alaska that stretches 1,200 miles, and are made up mostly of moun tain peaks, that sink about as tar into the ocean as they do above the surface of the water. The southern shores are warmed by the Japanese current and have different temperatures from the northern sides on the Bering Sea. The weather is rainy and foggy. Some of the islands are active volcanoes. The better islands are inhabited by approximately 700 Aleuts, a primitive people who are descendants of those who survived the conflicts with the Russians before the U. S. bought the country in 1854. Col. Poole stated that the best fishing in the world was found in the Aleutians. Guests at the meeting included Col. C. E. M. Howard; Harry White of Spartanburg Kiwanis Club; Dr. Ben Washburn of the Rutherfordton Kiwanis Club, and Jerry Drew of Tryon.
