tinuity of the Coast Range mineral belt which so far has only been ex- plotted in it's more accessible por- tions.
 It has long been known that the territory between Portland Canal and the Stikine River contains mineral potentialities which, had transporta- tion facilities been available would no doubt today have achieved results in keeping with the developments of the more easily reached parts; but the difficulties of transportation have so far absolutely prevented any at tempt to develop mineral properties beyond a certain radius.
 The Stewart Board of Trade is en- deavoring to have the Public Works Department move in the matter of the Stewart-Telegraph Creek road, and in the event of this project being carried to completion, the whole ter ritory now lying idle will be brought within profitable exploitation, in- cluding not only mineral lands, but agricultural and grazing areas and other potential resources.
 During the past fifty years pros pectors and trappers have at different times noted the occurrences of min eral lodes when in search of placer gold or furs, in the territory between the Stikine and the Portland Canal, but only in few instances have min eral locations been made, owing mainly to the difficulties of profit ably working or disposing of the finds; with transportation facilities provided, known mineral will be To- cated and prospecting for others will be stimulated.
 Mineral in place is known to oc- cur between the headwaters of the Unuk and the Ninganshaw; also be- tween the Ninganshaw and the Is- kut, Scud and Stikine; also in the Klappan area, where the Indians in bygone days utilized native copper for their utensils and weapons. PIac- CT gold was mined on the Unuk years ago and the area north of it is potential gold area that may re- pay prospecting.
 The opening up of this rich terri tory from Stewart will rebound to the advancement of the province and retain for Canada the benefits to be derived from the development of it's resources.
 At the present time the only avail able means of access is provided by the Stikine River, which passes through the thirty-mile Alaskan strip that shuts out northern British Co., lumbia from access to the sea; but aside from the alien ownership of the lower portion of the Stikine, that river will never serve as an>all year round artery of travel, being closed to traffic during large part of the year by ice and by high and low wa ter conditions.
 The logical conclusion therefore, in regard to the opening up of the mineral territory discovered by the Geological Survey and the potential area extending through to Portland Canal, is by the construction of a highway from Stewart to the Sti- kline; with this accomplished, the rapid advancement of northern Brit ish Columbia is assured.

to do the very best for himself pos sible.
 The most expensive person is the wrong doer and a school of this kind would give everyone his chance. It would make Alaska a better place to live in. Families would not say we must get out because our young peo- pie here have no chance. It would furnish one of the best chances in the world.
 It would have a fine social effect. When our colleges established a course in pharmacy, t made phar- macy a profession and trade school would raise different trades to where they should be, a profession.
 Now of course we in Wrangell would like to see such a schoodl es- tablished here. We are midway be- tween the two largest towns and ev- cry effort will be made to make it easy for students to find jobs during the summer season. Land of suffi- cient size will be provided and there will be every effort to make the school a success.

HIGH PRICE FOR FURs
 RESULTS IN FREQUENT SALES

SEATTLE-owing to the keen de- mand for fine furs and the high prices prevailing, and the good out look, the Seattle Fur Exchange has arranged to hold auction sales every ten days or two weeks, in addition to the regular scheduled sales; pro- vided the present levels are main tained. The special frequent sales will start shortly after the regular monthly auction which Is to be held January 23. If the demand and prices should weaken, furs will be held for regular monthly auctions.
 Special sales dates will not be scheduled, but arranged to obtain the best results. The cooperation and usual attendance of buyers Is assured.
 Red fox, cross fox, blue fox and mink are fully 20 per cent higher than last quotations. All furs are in excellent demand at very high prices with the exception of musk rats which are still hard to move.

STIKINE RIVER-ITS IMPORTANT
 RELATION TO THE CASSIAR

Several years ago the people ol stewart, B. C., made an effort tc nave the Canadian Public Works De. i,artment establish a road from Stew. lt to Telegraph Creek. The effort Was unsuccessful.
 Recently Dr. Forrest A. Kerr oi the Canadian Geological Survey sub mltted report to the Minister oi Mines indicating that the Stikine River District is perhaps the richest mineral area in Western Canada This has caused the eyes of the min ing world to be turned on the Sti- kline. And nowhere is interest in the Stikine more manifest than in the Portland Canal district.
 The Board of Trade of Stewart has lived the matter of a proposed road from Stewart to Telegraph Greek. and is now making vigorous effort 10 have the Public Works De- partment move in the matter.
 The progressive citizens of Port land Canal are naturally endeaVor- ing to further the best interests of their own region. And it is not al together unlikely that the road they are askin :, for may be built eVentu- ally. Il. .@ever, it is absolutely cer- tain that TOT many years to come the Stikine will be the main route of travel into the Cassiar region. The Stewart ;ioard of Trade may not agree With this statement, but we feel SUI. ( that the people of Stewart and tbu people of Wrangell are agreed il their desire to see an army of prospectol go into the Stikine country this uar in order that this highly minel 'iged region may be opened up with as little delay as pos, sible.
 The Stewart News in discussing the latest report of the Canadian Geological Survey says:

London, Nov. 15 (Pl-A $15-a- week engine filter from the loco- motive shops at Marlborough has written the What Price Glory" of Britains long labor-capital war.
 He is John Davison, whose Shadows of Strife" was presented at the Birmingham Repertory the ater and made such an impression that Sir Barry Jackson, the Lon- don producer. is planning to bring it here for a metropolitan premiere.
 The play deals with the reactions in a miners household Of the great general strike Of 1926. Davison wrote it when q shutdown Of coal mines threw him out Of work.
 He also has written poems, nov els and short stories but literary profits have not vet enabled him 10 give up his railroad job. A wife and three children are dependent on him.

MID-SEAS0N STYLES
 STRESS LONG SKIRTS
SpOrtswcar Costumes Gain in Length, While Evening Gowns
 Again Inrt With Ankles.

Paris, Nov. } GP)-Skirts took an other chute downward with the dis play of new style collections for southern resort wear, the usual mid - season shoWings.
 The halt to the downward move mcnt of skirts, expected by many, did not matorialize at the leading style establishments.
 The leader in the long skirt move puts few more inches on day and sport clothes and shoves evening dresses down to the ankles in many instances.
 He explains his increase in skirt lengths by American women s ready acceptance of the long skirted evening dresses of autumn.
 Not all the designers are as bold, but nearly all show slightly longer skirts for day with radically length ened evening dresses,
 Tho mid-season collections. sup posedIy directed at the women go- ing 10 southern resorts, are gener- ally regarded by professional buyers as forerunners of spring styles.

worthless land lying few miles
south OF Willows in Glenn county.
"This land is what is locally
known as goose land. 1t is heavy

portion Of which is heavily impreg-
mated with alkali Also the water
table over much of the tract was
almost at the surface. This land,
without doubt, is totally unsuited
TO any plan of subdivision or close
settlement.
Had this deal been allowed to
proceed and the subdividers able to

DRIVES PLYMOUTH
FROM COAST TO

From Los Angeles to Detroit,
chained to the steering wheel of Il
Plymouth roadster. in Sc hours and
seven minutes driving time, is the
unique record of Harry Smith, of
Los Angeles, who recently arrived
in Detroit none the worse for his
gruelling grind of 2,73J miles.
The entire trip was accomplished
without mishap, and IL claimed as
II record between the two cities, for
ears i'll the Plymouth s class. The
average speed was better than 81
miles an hour. Exceptional gasoline
economy was recorded, only 13l
gallons being used, averaging near
IL Il miles to the gallon. just six
quarts of oil were required. The
trlp was made by Salt Lake City
Cheyenne, and Omaha.
Smith. formerly sales manager
for the VI. Robert Atherton Com

SPEEDING IN HOT
WEATHER CAUSES
TIRES TO WEAR

With vacation season at hand
with long trips on fine highways
just ahead, With the temptation to
speed with high powered cars great
er than ever before, officials Of the
Samson Tire and Rubber Corpora
ton warn drivers that yielding to
these temptations is one of the cost
licst things they can do-at least 50
far us their tires are concerned
For speed, especially in hot wealth
cr, will take more miles off of tire
wear in shorter space Of time than
almost any other abuse. Speed gene
crates heat, and heat is probably the
most destructive element to which Il
tire can be subjected.
Many drivers are not aware of
the fact that every time they in
crease their speed five miles per
hour they are increasing the amount
of heat generated in the tires from
road contract. And any time a
driver pushes his car above % miles
an hour-espccially in hot weather
it is costing him in tire wear out
of all proportion to anything Fe OF
dinarily gains from that speed.
For instance, if you were Away
to drive your car at an average
speed of q, miles per ho4r, at Il
temperature of 50 degrees, AMI Sc
cured 10000 miles from a set di
tires, that same set of tires driven
| under the same temperature at T.
miles per hour would give YOU ap
| proximately only 1900 miles OF
wear. Under temperature of lot
