THERE is a new method
4 today of constructing in
terror walls and ceilings
a method which has already
aroused great interest among
architects and contractors.
Here is this modern type
OF construction: Solidon for
Walls and Ceilings is applied
in one thin coat (1-16"--1-8"
thick over insulation board,
plaster wall board, or other
wall boards.
Solidon is unlike any ma
terial you have ever seen
before. It's strength and re-
sistance to cracking and to
injury make it an unusually
strong structural material.
Other properties make it a
decorative material as well.
So that you have Solidon for
Walls and Ceilings taking the
place of plaster and of plastic
paint-combining the func-
tions of two products in one
giving you a highly efficient
material which speeds up
construction and saves time
and money. Walls made with
Solidon are ready to finish
after 48 hours.
Soiidon itself giyes smooth
or textared finish
The structural feature of Sol
idon il already well cstab-
lished today among all archi-
tects and contractors who
have used and applied it.

Casey Moran Grows
 Wroth [n Venezuela

All the oldtimers remember the Casey Moran, former Klondike newspaper man, now the editor and publisher of The Tropical Sun, Of Maracaibo, Venzuela, South Am erica. The Tropical Sun is a valued exchange of the Alaska Weekly and in a number arriving this week there appeared the following edit orial, which is along the lines of a typical Casey editorial. He takes the position that any person living iii another country should respect the flag of that country, or get out of it. The editorial is un- der the caption, "An Apology"
 It relates how an American had insulted the flag of Venzuela. The Venzuelans themselves did not pro- secute although deeply outraged. Fellow Americans, however, were so indignant that they forced the recreant one to leave the country.

The memorable defeat of the I'd

operating against the Germans and
Austrians west of the Isonzo, threatened
to demoralize the fighting efficiency of
Italy's 100000 men. The appointment

hopes of the enemy for the collapse of
the italian front
During the first three days of his new
position he carried out miracles"

have dared to undertake. While the
Austro-German avalanche was rushing
toward the city of the gondolier, Gen.
DiaZ, familiar with all the details of the
italian general staff's plans for Venice's
defense. gave the orders for blocking
the passage Of the enemy across the
Piave River.
1t was a time for great detection, war

doughty Neapolitan rallied his forces by
the magic of assurance. Confident of
victory, his energy was contagious. The
Austrian tide was stemmed at the Piaye.
In October. 1918, he struck the blow
that broke the Austrian front, drove a
great wedge into the Austrian line and
sent the Austrian armies reeling back
with losses of thousands of men and
hundreds OF guns. The pride OF Aus

humbled In the dust Within a week
