launch YANKEE
AT0TAL WRECK
NEAR DRY BAY

The launch Yankee II was wrecked
about forty miles below Yakutat.
while en- route from Seattle to Port
Wells, where it intended to enter into
the fishing business. The crew,
George Strixner, C. G. Rudlop, E. C.
Kessler and S. l.. Oliver, arrived in
Cordova yesterday afternoon and re-
port that the launch is toal wreck
and they had most thrilling ex-
perience. The Yankee II was an
eighty-five foot boat, of SO tons bur-
den and the loss is placed at $500.
When off Cape Spencer there was a
gale blowing which the little craft
tussled against for five hours, during
most of which time, the waves we're
breaking over the cabin. Finally she
landed broadside on the beach at the
entrance to Dry bay. Here she was
stuck until the breakers washed her
up high enough for the men to get
off. For four days it was impossible
to launch a life boat in the breakers,
which were rolling high. The first
attempt resulted in the boat being
swamped, but later it got through the
breakers, although the boat was half
full of water and had to be baled out.
The crew headed for Yakutat and
when within thirty miles of there was
picked up by the - cannery tender
Comet. Another five day delay was
experienced at Yakutat when Captain
Murray hove in sight with the tender
Quillacine, which he was bringing up
from Seattle for the Eyak Packing
Company and he brought the crew to

lime to Spruce Up Car Neglected
During Great War.
Col. Arthur Woods, Assistant to Sec
rotary of War, Recommends EN-
ployment of Returning SOL
diers to Make Repairs.

How about your motor carr or
course, you let her lose class some
what during the war. 1t was unpa-
triotic to use labor or paint on your
car at a time when American indus
try was working at top speed to pro-
duce the material necessary for the
winning of the war.
But the war is over. Labor Is no
longer scarce. In fact, there are TO-
900 soldiers being dismissed every day
from the service, and these men will
have rather a difficult time of it until
the industries of the country can re-
instate them into civilian jobs. Now
is the time to spruce up that motor
car, to put that necessary coat of paint
on and to overhaul it generally. You
will be doing a patriotic service to the
country in getting a soldier or two to
do this work for you. Col. Arthur
Woods, assistant to the secretary of
war, recommends the employment of
ex-service men for such reconstruction
work.
There is no more need for emergency
economy. Minor repairs add to the
life of things. Paint adds life to the
body of the car. Spruce up your en-
CINE. Renew those worn parts. Your
car will go quicker, will run smoother,
and wear on it will be lighter.
Materials are expensive now
paints, machine parts. cost more than
they used to a few years ago. But
they will save more than their value
in their service to the car.
Don't wait for materials to come
down. They won't. Rather is the
contrary to be expected. And If you
wait a little too long, you Will have to
put on an extra coat of paint, and
more parts will wear out. Spruce

Now that farmers are buying motor
trucks In large numbers, 1t is desirable
that these trucks show not only an
economical performance but also that
they pay as big returns on the invest
ment as is possible to make them. AS
one power farmer expressed it not
long ago, the motor truck takes the
last drudgery out of farming. This is
a whole lot to say, but many owners
are finding it true. Not only that
they are also finding that the truck
makes money by saving money in re-
ducing production and marketing costs.
Advantages of Truck.
One of the big advantages of the
truck is that it brings the market
many hours, and even days, nearer the
farm; and another factor In this con-
nectlon which operates to bring farm
and market still closer is the trailer
behind the truck. Where conditions
are favorable to its use, the trailer
should be considered an essential part
of truck equipment.

Trucks are usually equipped with
motors having considerable reserve
power, which is provided for pulling
heavy loads up grades or over bad
roads. If hauling to and from the farm
is yer fairly level, improved roads, as
is the case in a great many instances,
the motor truck even when loaded to
capacity is capable of hauling a trailer,
thus being able to handle nearly twice
the normal rated capacity of the truck
without overlooking it.
Danger in Practice.
There is a danger, however, in this
practice of hauling trailers behind
trucks, because some owners are sure
to use them when highway and other
conditions are not favorable. The
harm in doing this comes in overload
Ing the truck motor beyond the ca
pacity at which it will work
