of
Travel
It's
wonderful
how
much
a
person
can
see
from
a
few
minutes
ride
in
an
airplane.
Saturday
afternoon
the
managing-editor
of
this
paper
took
a
ride
in
the
llttlcMoth
plane
operated
by
the
local
company,
and
he
Is
enthusastlc
over
It..
He
said
It
was
wonderful
to
sit
there
in
the
open
air
ahead
of
the
pilot
and
take
In
all
the
sights.
The
higher
he
went
the
more
he
could
see.
Cruising
along
over
Metlakatla
Passage
the
various
familiar
Inlets
took
on
a
new
aspect
and
the
sandy
bottoms
of
some
creeks
that
had
hitherto
been
unexplored
looked
very
inviting.
The
Indian
village
was
very
picturesque
and
the
return
over
Dlgby
Island
brought
to
view
several
small
lakes
and
gave
a
good
Idea
of
the
topography
of
that
island.
Possibly
the
greatest
Interest
was
in
the
Prince
Rupert
townslte.
The
green
lawns
and
brightly
colored
flowers
showed
very
clearly
and
It
Is
surprising
to
sec
how
many
lawns
there
are
in
front
of
Prince
Rupert
homes.
The
editor
says
he
learned
more
about
Prince
Rupert
and
the
surrounding
country
In
fifteen
minutes
than
he
would
in
years
under
or
dinary
conditions.
