That thought. succinctly. is that
headlighting evils must be over
come by each car owner individ-
sally. In more detail. 1t means
that each motorist must pay the
same attention to his headlights as
be does TO his gasoline tank and
his crankcase.
OF ell the questions that have
agitated motordon, perhaps none
has evoked more consideration than
that Of illumination.
When one considers the astonish-
ing progress that has been made
In the industry since the first ear
sputtered its way feebly through
the horse-fiIled thoroughfares. 1t is
rather difficult to believe that any
one problem that confronted the
engineers Of those early days re-
mains uneolved today.
HeadIighting falls into that cate.

Manufacturers BaffIed
II the modern automobile manu-
facturer didn't have plenty of COM
pany in his misery over the head
lighting problem. he probably would
look WITH envy upOn s-LAAS spAO1COA
ear-maker who was the only one
ever actually to have lodged the
issue of illumination.
The pioneer achieved this merely
by providing no illumination at all.
In his day, headlights were acces-
series to be purchased by the man
who wanted to be step ahead Of
his neighbor.
AS the range of the automobile
increased. owners ran into the al
tentative of night driving or miss
ing ones own comfortable bed.
Night driving, thus. took head
lights out OF the accessory class
and the troubles Of the automobile
manufacturer began.
Since then, he has spent millions
trying to solve the rapidly shift
ing. but omnipresent, headlighting
problems.
M0tOrist Responsible
Inadequate illumination was the
first problem. Gradually this was
solved-or over-solved as some OBJ

THOs. COOK & SON PARTY

The second party to be conducted over the Golden Tour by Thomas Cook 6 Son, a party of approximately ten people, arrived in Seward Sunday from the Interior and left for Seattle on the s. s. Alaska. This party came north on the s. s. Yukon, a week ago, disembarked at Cordova and went in over the Richardson highway. Every member in the group were loud in their praise of the journey which was far beyond their expectations in the way of scenics and general ac- tivities.

NEW FAD CONCEIVED
 SEWARD TOURISTS
ARON ERICSSON KEPT BUSY FOR HOURS PAINTING TOTEM
 POLES FOR LADIES

Seattle citizens will no doubt be considerably startled in the very near future, or upon the arrival of the S. 5. Alaska, for on board the vessel are number of women who, while in Seward, conceived a new fad, that of having totem pole painted on the back of their garments.
 Aron Ericsson, local painter and art. ist, worked many hours overtime Sat- urday and Sunday, welding brush on the back of ladies coats and dresses. The effect is quite unique and it is forecast the fad may probably sweep over the entire United States. Associated Press reports to this effect were sent to the States yesterday by The Gateway.
