RELATES TRIP
TO FAR NORTH

A clear account of a trip into Alas
ka, 'the far NORTH" is contained in
letters received here by Mrs. l.. G.
Street from her daughter, Grace
Street, who with Mary Sloane, have
gone to teach school this year in Ko-
diak, Alaska. The first letter, dated
September 4, was written on board
the S. S. Admiral Watson, shortly be-
fore it's arrival at Cordova. The in
teresting communications follow:
"We left the rainy belt at Juneau"
Miss Street a V "Now it is clear and
we see beautiful scenery. Many gla-
ciers fill the valleys between the
mountains and snOw covers the dis
tant ranges. We have seer Mount
Mckinley, Mount Logan, and Mount
st. Elias, the highest peaks in North
America. The ocean has been full of
swells, but today we feel very little
motion.

The second letter is written from An,

there that morning and were to leave
the next morning. "There is much

says, "and we have to leave with the

One woman told US we could have all
the flowers we wanted, so we picked
some. She showed us turnips in her

the buildings at the barracks are
painted green.
Everything is high here, but peo~
pie from Kodiak say that things are
cheaper there. This is a booming

for the high prices. Kodiak is our

You will find the Firestone Dealer one
of the stable business men of your COM
munity. He offers a clean, fresh stock,
backed by a well organized service. He
wants you as a permanent customer.
That Is the reason he sells Firestone
tires. He knows and has plenty of proof
that they are the best tires on the mar
ket. He can give you the greatest value
and thereby retain your trade for years.
Every day you find new proof of this
unequalled value. On the 18th of this
month, Firestone Tires set two new dirt
track records at Syracuse when Tommy
Milton slid around four turns at every
mile and covered the 100 miles in rs min

MARTIAL LAW DECLARED
BY OKLAHOMA GOVERNOR

Oklahoma City, Okla, Sept. 15.-
Martial law for the entire state Of
Oklahoma was proclaimed at midnight
tonight by Gov. ]. C. Walton.
Calling the full force of the approx
imately six thousand troops in Okla
homa national guard to his command,
the governor climaxed his ~spectacu.
lar fight aginst the Ku Klux Khan by
declaring that any person who aids
the organization in carrying out its
purposes" are enemies of the sover-
eign state of Oklahoma and shall be
dealt with by military forces.
Due to the existence of a self-styled
invisible empire" Governor Walton
declared a state of insurrection and
rebellion is in effect against the con.
~stitution and authorities Of Oklahoma
and that a general state of life,
peace and personal safety" has re.
suited.
Activities Of the organization are
conferred in Oklahoma City and extend

Exercise your eye muscles, and
avoid automobile accidents. That's
the advice given by DIR. Needles.
When you r in a car going forty
miles an hour, you go about fifty
eight feet every second. Unless your
eye can roll from one side to the
other at least twice in a second, you
can't keep track of both sides of the
road and travel with safety at that
speed. Prizefighters, filters, automo-
bile drivers, all require eye exercises
to strengthen the eye muscles. Al
best, they get weak with old age
And a closed a requires better eye.

That great machine, looking like
a silver coated fish, slowly travelling
through the air above New York,
was a warning to the six millions in
that city, and the whole country.
In the morning, with the sun OBJ
scured by clouds, the air giant was
barely visible. Had the captain
chosen to go a few thousand feet
higher, it would have been absolutely
invisible.
Such a traveller coming out of the
misty dawn, above the edge of the
ocean, would first make itself known
by dropping enough bombs to destroy
New York, enough deadly gas to kill
three-quarters of the inhabitants.
The next war will be an air war
This country should be ready for it

American school children saved
$9,500,O00 in the last school year.
The money is nothing, the saving
habit is everything.
To teach children that poverty is
slavery, and can be avoided by rea-
sonable saving, is the first duty OF
parents. The second duty is to teach
children that after they have saved
they must help others.

The Prince of Wales, under the
name of Baron Renfrew, is in Can

a crowd met him when he arrived.
The English know the value of Can
ada now, and in future. The real
England may be Canada some time,
with the British Isles maintained as
a central business office in Europe.
AS the great Roman Empire saw

went the entire race without a stop. This
and every other important race this year
was won on Firestone Gum-Dipped
Cords and Steam-Wclded Tubes. Such
performance gives you conclusive proof
of their strength and durability. !.
Not only do race drivers use Firestone
Tires as protection TO their lives and the
surest way to victory, but the largest
tire buyers In the world insist on and
buy Firestone Tires for economy and
service. These buyers include the leading
car manufacturers, the biggest CONNER
cia1 cal operators and the taxicab and
notorious operators. 1859, ia tire
miles were sold to taxicab end NOTORIOUS
operators in the month of August.
Think this over. You cannot afford
to accept anything less than Firestone
service and economy. You can buy this
service and economy from any of the
dealers listed below.
