Who ever heard of motorist putting

Yet that is what was done in making
road tests of radiator glycerine. Bear

.quently is experienced in the middle of
Winter, the glycerine manufacturers set
out to prove that despite glycerine in a
car on the hottest day. the cooling sys-
tenn will operate as though filed with
plain water. Results Of these tests
show that it is as hard for high tenn
peratures to boil glycerine away as it
is for low temperatures to freeze it.
The fact that radiator glycerine has
been used successfully an as anti-freeze
in airplane motors during polar flights
establishes its cold-resisting powers.
The object of the road tests was to
prove that the use OF radiator glycerine
does not cause overheating.
A car serviced with the usual amount
used for anti-freeze purposes was taken

The colors of bubble are due to. its

bodies of many insects, and to pro-

1T is difficult to rate the joys of
European touring with enough enthus-
iasm. In touring by car the traveller
sees and knows the countries through
which he passes; by train they fit by
so fast the traveller only knows those
places where he stops.
IF you land in England, either at
Liverpool or Southampton, you can tour
through some of the worlds loVeliest
scenery From Liverpool south to Here
ford and Gloucester, taking in the beau
tiful Wye Valley and Tintiren Abbey
At Gloucester, if in hurry, you can
turn to London; otherwise continue
south and see Bristol, Wells. Glaston-
bury and Cheddar, turning back to Lon
don through Salisbury. From Southamp-
ton you can motor direct through VIM
chester and the Hampshire Hills, or
along the dunes of the South Downs to
Brighton or Eastbourne.
France Offers Beauty to Autoist.
Landing in France offers the same
interesting contrast If you will forSake
the train for a touring car. Take the
trip from Paris to Barcelona-and how
few tourists are aware of the. fact that
Barcelona is worth visiting! From the
train the traveller can get 1eeting
glimpse of Carcassonne or Perpignan
and the rest of France is passed in the
night The motorist will make the same
trip and come away with the bowling
acquaintance of Orleans, .Chateauroux,
Limoges, Montaubon, Toulouse. Carcass

It is all the more encouraging, and very complimentary to John Strenbraten (Stampede John} that the from whom the option is taken will have charge of the work for the Alaska Juneau. It is evident that the managers of the big Juneau mine have confidence in the property and confidence ill MT. Strenbraten, who is known to regard the group of claims very highly. It all proves that the Alaska Juneau is still the outlook for good mining prospects, and it insures efficient prospecting in another section of the mining country that completely surrounds Juneau

Everybody Worked but Hoover.
(New York Times. )

Mir Hoovers inauguration is only month away. but the list of persons who are primarily responsible for the Hoovers going to live in the White House is far from exhausted. Indeed, as March draws nearer and guessing about offices grows warmer every day brings forth another man without whom, if not for whom, or but for whom
 TO pick only at random in such wealth of material it has been established beyond pre- adventure that MT. Hoover would never have been President if not for CD the several gen temen who spotted him of destiny way back in Belgian days; CD the dozen gentle men less, who exclusively re- sponsible for making the Pennsy yivania delegation toe the mark at Kansas City; (3) the devoted band who went South at he risk of their lives and organized that section for Republican vic- tory (4) MT Coolidge. who threw his support to MT. Hoover; (5) MT. Coolidge who refused to speak out and so confused MT. Hoovers rivals
 Scattered over the face of the United States and most of the outlying continents countless politicians press agents soothsayers, college pres- dents, fnanciers, field marshals and, for aught we know, Pullman porters, but for whom and with out whom and if not for whom MT. Hoover would never have reached the White House. Only now and then it emefges in the discussion that per- haps bit of credit is due to Herbert Hoover.

WASHINGTON STATE AND JUNIOR
 COLLEGES.

The Washington Legislature in session at olympia will have to decide upon what action the State will take the organization of junior colleges in that commonwealth. Already they have three junior colleges in Washington one at each Centralia, Mount Vernon and Yakima organized by the respective school districts. They have also Junior College Association, composed of educators and citizens interested in education, in which Aberdeen and other Grays Harbor communities Port Angeles, Longview, Spokane Wenatchee and other towns rep resented
 The plan down there is to permit the estab lishment Of junior college in any town or combination of school districts that might want one where there at least 500 registered pupils in the public schools and not less than $4s00000O worth of assessed property.
 Business Chronicle. financial publication al Seattle that makes point of defending the in terests of the taxpayers supports the movement, and the press of the State is generally for it.
 In considering the matter as it affects the state of Washingtcn it must be taken into ac- count that there are many institutions of higher leafnine there within area but little if any larger than southeast Alaska. They have two State universities and several State normal schools The Methodists have the Puget sound University the Presbyterians have Whitworih College the Congregationalists have Whitman Col lege and the Catholics have Gonzaga Seattle and St Martins Colleges. And there other schools and colleges in the State.
 The Aberdeen Chamber of Commerce has got behind the movement and is aiding the Junior College Association in presenting the idea to the Legislature and the taxpayers.
 It is contended that the junior college system will make education cheaper and available to Q lot of students who cannot leave home to attend a college The Business Chronicle says
 These lns stitutions are organized to
 provide two years Of college work They
 advance high school graduates of the
 communities that much further in educa-
 tional raining. They are established
 largely the theory that they enable
 young people of the district pursue
 college cheaply and con
 venienty. since the students remain at
 home their homes. They mani
 festly make higher education available
 to some who would not find 1t possible
 to go away to college university.
 The question junior colleges in the educa- tional scheme Of Alaska ought to receive careful consideration. Whether not the time has ar rived for their inHoducton here would depend mostly upon the matter of cost. There is no questicn we believe, but that eventually they will help to solve the higher education problem in this Territory. In fact in other States the junior colleges have worked out we'll that they are in some instances, at least, being extended

 ate his food and finally, in the most
 brazen manner, slept in his bed The fact that the youns bear was not pres
