MANY REFINEMENTS
IN NEW BUICK MODEL

Twelve luxurious closed models
and four de luxe open cars COM
prise the line of Bucks for 1928.
All embody refinements undream-
ed of, even in the costliest
custom motor cars.
There is no marked difference
in appearance between the short
er and the longer wheelbase
models of Buick for 1928. Both
have the same radiator shell,
and the same stylish low contour.
Headlamps, in Buick for 1928,
cast the same quantity of light
when turned on dim as when
bright. In the dim position, how
ever, the light is depressed to
the road directly in front of the
car, where it can not inconvience
approaching drivers.
New rigidity is assured in the
Buick front tenders, on the 1928
models, by a one-piece tie rod,
which also supports the head
lamps. Two brackets, instead Of
one as formerly, give the tenders
additional strength.
Another new feature is the
combination tail stop and backing
libht, entirely automatic in oper-
light. Beside adding to the cars
factor of safety
The improved radiator emblem
resembles last years, but is more
graceful and typifies, in a great
er degree, the speed and luxury
which are Bucks. 1t is bounted
on deeper heavily nickeled
radiator shell.
Motor Improvements
The improvellents in Bucks
fauous vibrationless six-cylinder
valve-in-head engine lend a speed,
getaway and hill ability never
before achieved, either by Buick
or any other motor car.
No adjustment of generator
brushes, to regulate the rate OF
battery charge, is required. A
therm ostatSc regulator, entirely
automatic, tempers the charge
properly, under an weather con-
ditions, preventing under-charging
or over charging.
Cold-weather starting, which
has always been easy with the
Buick becomes still more certain
in the new machine. The gear
ratio between the starter and
fly-wheel has been increased to
bring about this end.
Greater simplificatiOn appears
in the distributor head this year.
This Is due to the new accessible
ity of the adjustment screw.
Tighter seating valves, and con-
sequent saving of power, result
from a new head design whereby
the valve seats are more evenly
cooled. This change has been
made in the light of long study
of combustion problems and has
insreased the portion of fuel
transformed into useful power.
thereby bettering performance.
Still further power increase is
assured by the enlargement of
the entire exhaust system.

NOTED EDUCATOR |S INVESTIGATING
 ALASKA FARMING
PROFESSOR EUGENE DAVENPORT SEEKING LOCATION FOR EN-
 TRANCE OF THIS FIELD

Announcing as his mission the in- vestigation of Alaskan agriculture with view to selecting a location for himself and also for gathering mate rial for story for The Country Gen. tleman magazine, Eugene Davenport, retired dean and president emeritus of the University of Illinois, arrived in Seward aboard the Admiral Far ragut yesterday after making the trip from Fairbanks over the Richardson highway to Cordova Professor Dav- enport is en route to Anchorage and Matanuska, at which latter place he will investigate methods employed in agricultural experimentation and gath CT information on the subject which brought him to Alaska possibly to embark in agriculture on large scale.
 On arrival in Alaska Professor Davenport met an old classmate in Dr. Georgeson, former chief agrono- mist of Alaska experimental farms, now retired after many years valu- able service. In addition he met a number of graduates of the Univer- sity of Illinois who are now enrolled on the teaching staff of the Fairbanks Agricultural College and School of Mines. These are Francis Potts, Miss Ina Hamlin, and Miss Martha Parks. MT. Rathiens, chief engineer for the Fairbanks Exploration company, is a University of Illinois graduate.
 Professor Davenport was much in- terested when told by member of The Gateway staff, who has had ex- perience in agriculture in Alaska, of the variety of berries, vegetables and grain which could be grown success fully in Alaska.
 Speaking of agriculture, Professor Davenport said he had read much Alaska agriculture and from what he had seen was deeply impressed with possibilities. He will apply analysis not only to the growing of farm pro- ducts but to marketing as well.

Rose-Mary smiled.
Dear old Bridget! She would be

Just as she had been during the war.
The chances were that when she had
gone her father would never men,
ton his daughters name, but every
time he and Bridget were together
each would know what the other was
thinking.
Bridget had been almost like a
mother to Rosemary. Her heart was
big. her soul rose-hued. her philosophy
wholesome.
When Rosemary had felt in need
of sympathy as a child she had run

asked Rosemary, hating to deceive
her.

father that very thing" Bridget
answered, II told i'm We were ready

man."
But I'm not ready-just yetr'
laughed Rose-Mary opening the door
The conversation saddened her.
She stepped outside, closed the door
and hurried down the walk, hailing a
passing taxicab. At the railroad sta
ton she checked her suitcase and
coat; then she drove to the bank.

hand and make her worries seem
quite trivial.
All too well Rose Mary knew how
much Bridget would be affected when
she left. 1t would be a long time
before the tune of Mother Machree"
would come from the kitchen or any
of those old Irish melodies with their
sad. minor refrainS.
The thought troubled her, but her
decision had been made. The road lay
open to her: the signpost pointed East.
East to Able and happiness.
So she tossed her head and throw
ing off these thoughts went on with
her packing.
1t occurred to her that it would be
cold in New York when she arrived.
She would have to take her fur coat.
But how to smuggle this out proved
another problem.
Il think I'll take this coat down to
the cleaners and then have it stored

she started downstairs, carrying the

Then she went back to the station
where she bought her tickets and made
her reservations, a trifie nervous
there lest some one recognized her.
She was decidedly nervous when
she went home to lunch. But she had
manned on doing so--she was waiting
for q certain telegram. Her father
had already come in and was busy at
his desk, sorting over some papers.
'I've got surprise for ye, darlin',"
