NEW FORDS ARE MUCH MORE
CLASSY LOOKING; THE CLOSED
MODELS SPECIALLY CHANGED

for rigidity and strength. The com
partment at the rear has been en-
larged to afford increased carrying
capacity. The gasoline tank is um
der the seat, with divided cushions
to afford easy filling of the tank
from the right side making it un-
necessary for the driver to leave his
seat. Nentilator in the cowl and
Il visor over the windshield add
more to the attractiveness of the
car. A new rear fender of more
sturdy character also is Il feature.
Interior fittings are of choice
materials and the arrangement of
the deeply cushioned seat has been
effected So that at the rear there
is Il small recess shelf for carrying
parcels. The rear vision window is
much larger and oblong in shape.
Door windows have been equipped
with revolving type window regu-
lator and door locks are provided.
Side windows are equipped with
the lever type window lifters.
Sedan is Improved
Marked, too, is the Improvement
in the four door sedan. Highly pop
uLar since its introduction year
ago, because of its low, graceful
lines, the car now presents even
much better lines and sturdier ap-
pearance.
This has been brought about by
the installation of an entirely new
eowl with Il graceful sweep from
the dash blending into the larger
hood and radiator. The change also
affords an increase in leg room for
occupants of the front seat.
In the open type, the touring car
and runabout, the cowl has been en-
larged and flows in Il graceful curve
to the higher hood.
The result brings a most pleas
inp effect to the exterior appear
ancc of both types. The improve
ment in the touring car which came
when the one man top and siantiug
windshield were introduced, is great
ly enhanced by the larger radiator,
the car appearing lower and more
attractive than ever.
The new radiator also is extended
to the Ford truck chassis, afford
ing improved appearance and bet
ter cootEag to dcliverey services.
The local Ford dealers, Edgar
Efothers, are particularly fortun-
ate in being able to show these
new models at their Ell Centre show
rooms.

Introduction of higher radiator,
bringing new and improved body
lines to all types of Ford ears, is
announced today by the Ford Motor
company.
The changes have just gone into
effect and the various types are now
in production. While the larger
radiator has been made standard on
all types and while it has made
possible other betterments in body
design, there is no radical departure
in construction, but rather general
improvement which has resulted in
more graceful lines.
Radiator Higher
The new radiator sets an inch
and a half higher than the former
and has an apron at the bottom
which joins Il similar apron effect
of the fender on either side, giving
a highly finished appearance to the
front of the car. The larger rad
at0r also increases cooling effici-
encv.
Most conspicuous among the new
types is the Ford Coupe. which is of
entirely new body design and con
struetion resulting in "a more trim
exterior. appearance, more comfort
able seating arrangement and
greater luggage carrying caracity.
From the dash there is a graceful
sweep in the cowl to the radiator
bringing pleasing. effect TO the

 And whereas it is greatly to be desired that, if possible, our Alaska Pioneers should have the comforts, privileges and advantages of a warmer climate, and it is suggested that some arrangement might be made between our Territorial gov ernment, through its proper depart mental officers, or through spe- cial authority of Congress, that our brother Pioneers might be permitted, instead of entering the House for Pioneers at Sitka, Alaska, to sojourn at one of the many soldiers homes in the United States. or such of said homes as might be reasonably available to them, financial arrange ments therefor to be agreed upon between the said Territorial and Federal officers;
 Therefore be it resolved, That our Governor and Delegate be re- quested to communicate with the appropriate officers of the United States government to the end that our brother Pioneers may have access to some one or more of the said soldiers homes, if so desired by said Pioneers, instead of at the Pioneers home at Sitka, Alaska; that financial arrangements therefor be negotiated between the Terri torial and Federal governments as aforesaid

 Whereas many of our brother Pioneers, old-timers of Alaska, who have been continuously in Alaska nearly twenty-five years, and have given the best part of their lives to the prospecting, development and betterment of Alaska, constantly. battling against the rigors of our ex- treme climatic conditions, and are now getting weary of the truggle, and ready to enjoy that rest which they have well earned and are just ly entitled to; ~-."-
 And whereas some of our broth CTS have failed to acquire sufficient of the worlds goods to enable them to give up the struggle, or to enjoy their well earned rest:
 And whereas our Territorial gov ernment has provided Pioneers Home at Sitka Alaska, for those of our Pioneers who are eligible for admission and who care to avail themselves thereof;
 And whereas, while the said Pio- neers' Home Is a means whereby our brothers may find free rest from their labors, yet it does not exempt them from the rigors and hardships of our extreme winter climate, and many of our brothers do not care to sojourn at Sitka, but would ra- ther have a change to a warmer

AMUNDSEN IS NOT FIRST
 TO TRY FLIGHT TO POLE

The plan of Raold Amundsen, to attempt flight from Wainwright
 across the north pole to Spitzber-
 gen, is not exactly a new departure
 in polar exploration. Airplanes have
 been used recently in South Polar
 exploration, and The Alaska Week
 ly recalls that Professor s. A. An dree, the Swedish scientist and his companions Knut Fraenkel and Nils
 Strindberg, the last a cousin of the
 dramatist, believed they could ac- compIsh a polar flight in their free balloon. They left Spitzberg-
 en an a july afternoon in 1897, car rying pigeons to keep the outside world informed as to their progress.
 They were never seen again. l. was generally thought that the bal loon had been forced down on top
 of the North Greenland glaciers. from which there could be no es- cape nor hope of rescue except by means of the air. A few years ago another party of explorers heard from a tribe of Fskimos A strsnoe tale of how their fathers had once harpooned a whale so large and cumbersome that they could not get il ashore. It is said that in the huts of the tribe bits of rope were found resembling that used on balloons.
 There appears to be more founda- tion for the story that the Andree party really did pass over the North Pole and was lost in the extreme part of Northwestern Siberia, while enroute homeward bound John Haugen, an American miner, was prospecting for placer diggings on the Tchutkotsk peninsula about the year of 1903. He came upon an Eskimo village some ways from the coast. The Eskimos are keen on bartering their carved ivory curios for almost anything white man may have, especially chewing to- bacco. Out of the curios offered him was one that attracted his par ticular attention. It was a very crude imitation of a balloon, carved out of walrus tusk Haugen was puzzled as to how an Eskimo could make replica, crude as it was. of a thing that he could not pos sibly know anything about. In re- ply to the query as to how he (the Eskimo) got the idea, he re- piled: Long time ago me see all same this way up in air" Haugen, knowing of Andree's fate, was firm, i ly convinced, after seeing the cur 10, that he was lost in Northeast
