T0NGASS TRADING
 COMPANY
Secures Exclusive Agency. for - s9Sgl9Aoa IroISO Is!u!gH -

The distributor of the famous Rainier Cereal Beverages for Ketchikan and surrounding country is now the Tongass Ira ding Company.
 Practically everyone herea- bouts is familiar with these un- approached drinks. They are manufactured from finest cer- calls and are not only extremely ralatable, but healthful and sa- sisfying as well. They are pra- ctically predigested and thus a. gree with old folks as well as qu- anch the thirst of those in their prime and tickle the palate of youngsters.
 They contain up to seven per cent solids extract procured from strengthening grains. Not containing any habit form ing drugs or chemicals, Rainier Cereal Beverages are the most commendable of all drinks for children. It is already the GUS tom in most communities to keep a case or. two always on hand for general family use and for serving friends.
 No sugar is used in the manu- fracture of Rainier Cereals Be verages, while the grains en- ployed are NOT essential food grains.
 After the grains have been processed for Rainier Cereal Be- verages they show higher per- centage of proteins than they do in their natural state. This makes such grains a very su- perior stock food. There is no waste whatsoever. Thus Raini- CT Cereal Beverages can be en- joyed with a clear conscience you are NOT depicting any store of war essentials when you drink them.
 Being pure, good, wholesome, without injurious chemicals or substances of any form or natu- re, and absolutely non-habit-for- ming, Rainier Cereal Beverages have supplied long-standing demand in exactly the same be- nefcial way the package crack CT did when it was offered.

RYAN TELLS or
AIRCRAFT WORK
Makes Optimistic Statement
First Day He Assumes
New Position
MOTOR PRODUCTION
UP TO EXPECTATION
Allied Governments Order More Liberty
Motors Than Can Be Built at Present
Many American Designers of Repu-
tation Are Assisting in Work.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 29.-John d.
Ryan signalized his first day in office as
second assistant secretary of war and di-
rector of aeronautics yesterday by tax
ing occasion, as he put it, ''to give an idea
of what work has been going on in the
bureau of aircraft production during the
last few months while Investigations and
reorganizations have made it advisable to
keep silence"
In announcing that it was necessary to
abandon one type of airplane, the Bristol,
after the expenditure of C considerable
money and time, because it was found
unsafe and of little military value, Mr..
Ryan said the same thing might happen
again.
He pointed out, however, that DeHavi-
land planes improved by experiment have
reached quantity production and told of
successful efforts of American and foreign
designers to fit new types of planes to
Liberty motors.
| Orders for Liberty l2-cylinder motors
have been increased from 22,500 to $4,000
he said, and building of HispanoSuiza
and eight cylinder Liberty motors have
been ordered ito balance the program"
| Emphasizing that motor production
now is fully up to expectations, Mr.. Ryan
said that each of the allied governments
is seeking Liberty motors in quantity
more than we can build"
The contracts for the Hispano- Suiza
motors provide engines of $50 and 300
horsepower.
''NVe are making a good many De Havi
land fours," he said. There has been a
good deal of criticism of them and there
have been a good many changes made on
them recently These changes have not
been discovered in the way that is gen
orally supposed.
''So-called defects that result in changes
are not in many cases what you can
really call defects at all, but improve
ments in workmanship, and they are GO
ing on all the time"
Models of the SEQ, a single seated
British fighter, have been brought to the
United States, Mr. Ryan said, and copies
of it made here are being tested. Capt.
LePere, a French officer, has designed
4 three types of planes to fly with the Lib
erty-l2, he said, "and they are very
promising"
There are at least two other types of
machines designed here that are being
flown that we do not think it advisable
to give publicity to, because they are not
so far along that we feel satisfied they
are going through" Mr.. Ryan said
1--WE do not want to say that we have
five types and then come out with only
three
"These are all machines that can be
made in quantity, and, OF course, it viii
take some little time to get them into
production; but the work of design is GO
ing on. Contrary to supposition, we ar,
using many American designers of repu
tation."
Orville Wright, Glen Curtiss. Glenn
Martin and other prominent airplane de
signers and manufacturers are assisting
on the new models, Mr.. Ryan said, as ar,
the Pomilio brothers, noted Italian de
sgners.
