CHRYSLER CARS

Four Chrysler ears have lowered
existing records for three trans-con-

mark, according to word received
by j. w. Frazer, general sales man
agcr of the Chrysler corporation.
A Chrysler Imperial recently
broke the record between Perth
and Sydney, Australia. Two weeks
later on the same continent, another
Chrvsler set new record for the
$40 mile run from Melbourne tc
Sydney. The record from Johannes
bug to Nairobi, South Africa, fell
to third Chrysler, while the same
type of car set new mark for
stock ears over the 100 mile Ak

WOOD AFFORDS
fine VARIETY
OF DECORATION

A house finished with wood and
abundantly equipped with built-ln
features may be more than % per
cent well decorated before penny
is spent for drapes, rugs and ether
accessories, according to an article
by Frances lie Baron in the Peo-
pies Popular Monthly.
"When wood interiors are care
fully planned and built-in features
selected to harmoniZe with the style
of house, it is surprising how few
things are required to complete your
decorating schemes" the article
states. "This means you not only
get furniture and decoration for
each dollar you spend, but in addi-
tion long list of practical and
highly useful housekeeping tools
dear to every woman's heart.
"Where is the housekeeper who
does not enjoy closets and plenty
of theme Broom closets, linen
closets, book racks, telephone rocks
breakfast alcoves, built-in ironing
boards, china closets, kitchen clos

In reality they amount to furniture
81 want to say on behalf of wood
that no other single material
know offers larger variety OF
decorative possibilities in home fur
nishing. You can paint, stain
enamel, lacquer, carve and etci
wood. Now add to these finishes
the natural grain of the differenl
wood species and you can play al
most as many beautiful harmonle'

SANITATION AND
HYGIENE SHOULD
BE CONSIDERED

Modern science has at last rccOg-
nized the fact that home sanitation
and hygiene is one Of the most I'm
portant features to consider in plan
ming home. Too much attention
has been given in the past to max
ing houses beautiful from the ex'
terror and the front room, and not
enough to the conveniences and san
i,arv requirements Of the kitchen
and bath room.
Today almost first consideration
is given to te planning of these two.
and rightly so. No one can afford
to tamper with health. The bath
room should be provided with a com
plete set of the most efficient! OPP
Grated plumbing. 1t must nave
| modern toilet and lavat0ry fixtures,
together with medicine chest and ar
angemcnts for the proper keeping
Of all cleansing toilet brushes,
towels, cloths, etc. The bath should
| have shower attachments, and proper
provision should be made for elcc-
trical outlets. =
The kitchen should be provided
with either gas or electric service,
and rcfrigcrating facilities to keep
foods in proper edible condition. 1t
| should be arranged so as to give a
| ma aximum of ventilation and light,
end be easily kept clean.
| Bedrooms should be constr acted
so as to get air and sunlight from
the proper angles and in such way
that the beds may be placed beyond
! the reach of drafts.
Consideration should be given to
yard sanitation and home surround
ings. Trees and plants should moi
lie placed too close to the house
, These hints probably suggest other
point upon which you will like t.
be advised either in planning your
rev home or in undermining youf
fpresent residence. Any Of the local
plumbers will be able to give spcci
fic data and specifications to meet
your particular needs.

"plans" and specifications" - ii.

Soft grays or pale greens are IA
vorite tones in the treatm tri OF
Douglas fir, but such other colors
as the deep red Of mahogany, the
dark brown of walnut and the
lighter browns and tans of oak are
also popular. When finishing in
light tones, to bring out the full
beauty Of the wood, an acid stain
rather than an oil stain should be
used.

brought him the prison sentence
comes into his life again after he
has done several years of evaEgeiis

Dec. 7, 1929.
 Since the first of September, the natives of the village have caught about 600 seals.
 Although this was Point Hopes worst year in the whaling industry not having made a catch, Deerihs came to the front and obtained their first whales by shooting with their rifles fine specimens av- eraging about 45 feet in length. This is great help to the viii lage and the natives are now en- toying their muktuk, which in former years, they have had to purchase from the Point Hope natives.
 School was opened on November 1st with an enrolment of 37 pu- pills all grades being represented except the eighth.
 Thanksgiving Day the natives held their feast in the school building and afterwards partici- pated in dancing until a late hour. Although the native Eskimo dance had not been part of the village past-time since 1912. it was again brought to life with the assist ance of C. D. Mover, and it is hoped that it may continue.
 The fox catch todate since the season opened has been all reds, about 35 in number

Hair
that sparkIes !!

No one can deny the impor-
lance of having the hair arranged
in the style best suited to the in
dividual type. Much of the effect
is lost, however, unless the hair
is kept soft, abundant. lustrous.
A million busy women and girls
know the easiest way to keep the
hair in perfect condition is with
Danderine. The first application
will snow you how marvelously it
removes excess oil from the hair;
cleanseS it; makes it sparkle with
new life and luStre. It's so simple
to use Danderine. All you do is
put little on your brush each
time you arrange your hair! The
consistent use of Danderine will
dissolve the worst crust of dan
druff; soothe, heal the scalp;
stimulate the growth of long,
silky, abundant hair
Danderine isn't sticky or oily;
doesn't. show. It makes the hair
easy to manage: holds it in place
for hours. '>'"Set" your waves with
it and see how much longer they
stay in.

With the, exception of Third Ave

been reflected in the rising market
for the important steel shares.
Coppers were again thrown on the
