seen since she sailed over a shoul-
der of the world from the port of
Vavau, Friendly islands, in the
South Pacific, half year ago, the
four-masted bark Harvester, with
fifteen men aboard, followed the
Maverick" and went down in a
great storm, if a sailor supersti-
tion is to be given attention.
The Harvester, with copra in
her holds, sailed from Vavau last
November and trimmed away for
San Francisco, the little group of
hospitable Polynesians on the dock
bidding her rather sorrowful
farewell, for Vavau is not on the
busy trade lanes and ship visits
are infrequent. The vessel was
watched until she dipped lazily
over the horizon. No ship or shore
has sighted her since, as far as
her owners here know.
A few days after her departure
the skies blackened and a great
storm tore across the ocean trail
she was taking. 1t is believed by
shipping men that this storm bore
her down and thrust her under
the seas.
For some months all vessels ply
ing the Pacific kept a lookout for
the Harvester. Occasionally
hulk would be seen, bottomup, or
an upright derelict, with gaunt
masts and decks awash - each
holding deep mystery of its
own, but none of them was the
Harvester. One old sailing vessel,
which left South Sea island port
about the time the Harvester
cleared from Vavau and had
struck calm after calm until she
too, was given up for lost, made a
Chilean port at last, but had no
word of the Harvester.
The Harvester was known in
many ports of the world. She was
fifty years old, having slipped in
to the Merrimac at Newburyport,
Mass, in 1871 and for years sailed
the North Atlantic. This was her
first mishap. She was owned by
the Charles Nelson company, of
San Francisco.
Sailor men who say the Har-
vester followed the Maverick"
referred to a legend built around
an old gun-running vessel of that
name which found an uncharted
grave in the Pacific after putting
out from Batavia to a Central Am
erican port where she was to be
outfitted as a merchantmen. For

that is exactly what The IMPERIAL ICE
CREAM COMPANY intends doing today at
the formal opening of West Virginia's finest Ice
Cream plant at 134-136-138 Seventeenth Street.
This magnifcant structure with cleanliness
and sanitation reflecting from every wall, floor

Wheeling's appreciation Of pure, wholesome
Ice Cream.
