The "house warming" affair giv- ell last Saturday night at the new home of the Chamber of Commerce to the ladies of Nome and visitors within the city, was huge suc- cess. The Log Cabin" Or "Eni Club" as 1t was formerly known in the earlier days, presented a neat appearance, and the large crowd present expressed their delight in the purchase of the building by the Chamber of Commerce who will keep up this old time log build ing. Julian's orchestra furnished music for the occasion and dancing was enjoyed until the early hours. During the course of the evening President Geo. s. Maynard intro- duced National Councillor Geo. D. SchOfield, who in a truly eloquent and sincere manner gave an ad- dress of welcome to the guests of the evening Mir. Schofield al- so told his listeners of the many advantages to be gained by being a member of the local chamber, which is member of the Chamber of Commerce of the United States located at Washington D. c. He also told of the wonderful progress that the Nome Chamber is making and paid the officers and directors glowing tribute and compliment ed the people of Nome in having a live Chamber.
 4 delicious lunch of dainty sand wiches with hot coffee was served turnout the evening and many re- quests were made that the Cham Der should have more of these pleasant affairs.

CHAMBER COMMERCE, KENNEL
 GLIB HOLD JOINT MEETING

A special meeting of the Board of Directors of the Northwestern Alaska Chamber of Commerce and the Nome Kennel Club was held in the Log Cabin on Thursday even- ing. The meeting was called to order by John Treichler, Vice Pres ident of the Nome Kennel Club.

 No definite date for this enter tainment could be set for the req son that it is not known when the ship Northern Light will return to Nome bearing the Borden party, but it is expected to arrive about the latter part of next week at about the same time as the steam CT Victoria.

HENRY FORD TO BUILD
 A NEW DESIGN OF CAR

Under date of May 26 and just received in the Victoria mail, Henry Ford, the famed automobile manu- facturer puts out the following statement which is self-explanatory and is reprinted herewith for the information of the public:
 Detroit, May 26-Early produc- tion of a new Ford car superior in design and performance to any now available in the low-priced. light car field, was announced today bv the Ford Motor Company.
 Henry Ford. designer of the car and Edsel Ford, president of the company, both stated that within the next few weeks they will give complete description of the new model.
 The famous Model T Ford, which still leads the automobile industry after twenty years of manufacture. will continue to be a substantial factor in Ford production, in view of the fact that about ten million cars of this model are still in use and will require replacement parts and service.
 "The Model T Ford car was a pioneer" said Henry Ford today. "There was no conscious public need of motor cars when We first made it. There were few good roads. This car blazed the way for the motor car industry and started the movement for good roads every where. It is still the pioneer car in many parts of the world which are just beginning to be motorized. But conditions in this country have So greatly changed that further re- finement in motor car construction is now desirable and our new mod el is a recognition of this.
 Besides the Model T itself, an other revolutionary element which the Ford Motor Company introduce ed twenty years ago was the idea of service. Some of the early man ufacturers proceeded on the theory that once they had induced a man to buy a car they had him at their mercy; they charged him the high est possible price for necessary re- placements. Our company adopted the opposite theory. We believed that when man bought one ot our cars We should keep 1t running for him as long as We could and at the lowest upkeep cost. That was the origin of Ford service.
 "The Model T was one of the

: largest factors in creating the con- ditions which now make the new
 model Ford possible The world
 wide influence of the Ford car in the building of good roads and in
 teaching the people the use and value of mechanical power is con- ceded. Nowadays everybody runs some kind of motor power but
 twenty years ago only the adven- turous few could be induced to trv an automobile. It had harder time winning public confidence than the airplane has now. The Model
 T was the great educator in this respect. It had stamina and pow CT. It was the car that ran be- fore there were good roads to run i on. It broke down the barriers of distance in rural sections, brought people of these sections closer together and placed educa- ton in reach of everybody. We are all still proud of the Model T Ford car. If we were not We could not have continued to manu- facture it so long.
 With the new Ford car We pro- pose to continue in the light-car held which We created on the same basis of quantity production we have always worked, giving high quality, low price and constant service. We began work on this new model several years ago. In fact, the idea of new car has been in my mind much longer than that. But the sale of the Model T continued at such a pace that there. never seemed to be an opportunity to get the new car started. Even now the business is so brisk that We are up against the proposition of keeping the factory going on one model while We tool up for another. l am glad of this because it will not necessitate a total shutdown. Only comparatively few men will be out at time while their de- partments are being fooled up for the new product At one time it looked as if 10000 men might be laid off temporarily, but We have now scaled that down to less than 25,0OO at time. The la.s-off will be brief. because we need the men and We have no time to waste.

A Tame Pussy
Grace George in Legend of Leonora" Fills
Theatre With Incense of Refinement
Reviewed By HARBoR ALLEN.

Middle class entertainment reaches
a high water mark of genteel frothi-
ness in Sir James Barrie's Legend
of Leonora," revived with Grace
George at the Ritz Theatre. If you
want to see this early Barrie play,
be sure you wear your best clothes
and your best diamonds. Your finger
nails ought to be polished as highly
as your shoes. Practice your laugh
in advance, it mustn't be too loud.
And take your Harvard accent with
you, you'll need it. Grace George,
whose husband, William Brady, spent
a fortune to make her a star, is very
refined. You must be refined too.
The smell of refinement fills the Ritz
like incense.
Leonora is a poor-I'll come back
to that-lady with every conceivable
charm. She is coy and bold, a CO.
quette and mother, a feminist and
a flirt. She has murdered a man
very genteely, of course, by pushing
him out of a train. He insisted on
keeping the window open when her
child had cold.
TOOthless Satire.
So Leonora is tried. The trial
proves to be toothless satire, deli
cate, bloodless bit of spoofing. "Chi-
ago" is also a play about woman
on trial for murder. But Chicago"
is tiger clawing at the rotten meat
of justice with hefty rips. "The Le-
gend of Leonora" is pussy cat play
ing with a ball of yarn. A tame
pussy at that. The jury, the judge,
the lawyers, the witnesses are all
. charmed by Leonora. Her friends
try to lie for her, but she won't let
them. And she goes scot free.
For a poor lady, Leonora has in
the last act a surprisingly ritzy
home with elegant furniture and a
big garden and a life-size hobby
horse for her children and vases and
flowers and oil paintings. You Won
der whose idea of poverty that is.
Never mind, it's in keeping with the
play: amusing, witty at times, play
full, never rude, never penetrating,
never disturbing. Everything in it
is so nice, everything turns out so
nice. You can watch it without
wrinkling your clothes or mussing
your hair. If you are good middle
class, you can leave the theatre
maudlin with love for the dear old
world and everybody in it.
