GREAT NORTHERN DEPOT
GETS FINAL INSPECTION

Tuesday morning D. j. Flynn div
ision superintendent, P. S. Proul,
transportation inspector, and George
Turgeon, station inspector, of the
Great Northern Railway, came down
from Superior and gave the Askov
depot its final inspection. The build
ing was examined from top to bottom
and the three gentlemen were unan-
imous in declaring that it was the
finest and best depot the line had
between the Twin Cities and the
Twin Ports with the exception of
Cambridge which has a similar struc-
ture.
The buff color stucco finish is
something new the railroad is trying
out, and the inspectors were of the
opinion that it is fully as attractive as
the customary gray.
The three officials were loud in
their praises of the Askov community,
stating that from a business stand
point it was one of the best on this
division.

FORD TRYING TO TEACH WORLD
 CORRECT DANCE

DETROIT, Jan. 20. (P)-Every ef- fort to denature the dance has ended in failure, declares Dr. W. H. Phelps, editor of the Michigan Christian Advo- cate, official Methodist Episcopal or gan for the Detroit area.
 Henry Ford has put the world on wheels but to teach the world to dance decently is giants task" asserts Dr. Phelps. We wish he could do it, but our faith is admittedly small.
 Nevertheless he may be right. Our cocksureness about the dance is gone but our old convictions have not faded an iota.
 We no longer think the dance as wicked, as we did once, but think of | it now rather as dangerous.
 There are worse things than the dance, the writer adds, and asserts that the might automobile undoubted- ly is turing more girls to immortality than the dance ever did, and that is saying good deal"
 1 Dr. Phelps maintains that "an evil by-product is the use of the dance to finance the athletic department of the school which makes non-participants appear as slackers and brings in out siders that leave little cash and ire quently lot of smut behind them.''

SHELTER HARB0R PROGRESS BEING
 
 MADE COMMITTEE
CORRESPONDENCE MARKS MANY STRIDES MADE FOR LOCAL
 IMPROVEMENT

Considerable correspondence and telegraph messages have been inter- changed between tn Seward Cham br of Commerce, Mayor l.. V. Ray, and the War department during the past few months relative to the pro- posed local harbor, shelter for small craft The latest of these was re- ceived by MT. Ray in the last mail from Major Lunsford E. Oliver, act ing engineer, Juneau office, and was as follows.
 T received your wire containing in- formation regarding tonnage imports and exports and very much obliged flor your prompt action in this mat ter. I assure you that there is no misunderstanding with regard to what is desired at Seward, but regulations require us in making report to state the amount of business now be- ing carried on. The information as to imports and exports by the large ships will, of course, have little bear ing upon the desirability of provid- ing a harbor for the small boats but by regulation we must include such information.
 T assure you there will be nothing in our report to reflect upon Res urrection Bay as a harbor for large ships"
 To W. E. Mountray, Alaska mana ger for the Standard Oil Company, a former resident of Seward who now makes his headquarters at the Seat tie office, J. P. Hannon, secretary of thee hamber, dispatched the follow ing telegram some days ago:
 We need duplicate letter from the Halibut Vessel Owners Associa- tiOn, of Seattle, requesting shelter harbor for small craft. You probably recall letter in question which was forwarded to Washington, D. C., U. >. Army Engineers o1tlce. Now de- sire duplicate to incorporate their recommendation of the shelter har- bor Have letter addressed to us and forward as soon as possible"
 Mr. Moultray wired back two days ago the following message T just returned to Seward will get letter suggested and mail to you on next steamer"
 Nothin is being left undone locally to put this proposed project through to a successful conclusion and the special committee detailed on the project by the Seward Chamber of Commerce, Captain o. A Johansen and L. V. Ray, deserve much credit for the splendid progress thus far.

SELL IS BUCKS
HERE IN IL DAYS

During the first twelve days of
January, the San Antonio Buick Com
pany sold fifteen new Buick cars, re-
ports Claude Newton Of the company.
Not including the three holidays of
the month, this is nearly two cars a
day.
At the present rate Of selling, Mr..
Newton predicts that 1926 will sur
pass 1925 in number of sales and set
a record for all times in San Antonio.
During the past year. this company
sold several hundred new cars in San
Antonio, in addition to many used
cars, he states.
The used car business Of the con-
pony Is running about the same as
the new car sales. In this line OF
business, January looms as a record
month, according to Mr.. Newton.
