Ruth Chatterton's production, ANY

Theater. Admirers of the star and
of Give Brook and Paul Lukss have
the pleasure of seeing them in action,
but there is no inspiration in the
development of the plot that Is car
ried through to the inevitable climax.
The man of talent and the woman
of human qualities are finally united,
despite their apparent capacity for
disagreement. It is undiSputed from
beginning to end that their romance
will surmount all obstacles and there
Is no convincing reason to question
this result.

the defects in the vehicle, she shines
as an artist possessing the training
and polish that are always asso-

fine appreciation of acting that Is

Western Auto Tire

That the Spring touring season

manager of the company.

insist on new tires. Knowing the
dependability of Western Auto tires
thousands of cars are re-equipped

"The average car owner is a
Shrewd tire buyer. He determines
the selection of a tire, not by price
alone, but by the reputation and re-
sources of the company behind the
tires. He considers too, the dealer
from whom the actual purchase is
made. When values are determined
in this manner, it is easy to see why
thrifty car owners unhesitatingly
equip their cars with Western Giant
or Wear-well tires.
"a leading factor that contributes
TO the Western Auto Supply Com
pany's large volume of tire sales is
the confidence that autoists have in
our company. They know that Wes-

ALASKA JUNEAU. COMEBACK MADE IN SHORT TIME.
Marvellous Record of Lo- cal Company Portrayed
 in s. F. Newspaper
By HUBERT J. SOBER (San Francisco ChronicIe)

Alaska Juneau Gold Mining Com pany has made one of the most remarkable come-backs of any cor poration in the history of the min ing industry on the Pacific slope Its somewhat remarkable develop ments of the past two years can very probably be traced to the in- genuity of Fred w. Bradley, presi- dent of the company, and his asso- ciates.
 This corporation was practically insolvent two years ago and would have been forced into receivership had not the bonds outstanding been held by friends of the com pany who did not foreclose and have not foreclosed, when not only interest was defaulted, but princi- pal as well.
 In the past two years, all back interest has been paid and in addi- ton, the company has rapidly li- quidated it's funded debt out of earnings until at the present time there is but $S3O,O0O outstanding It is expected that the remainder of the bonds will be liquidated by the close of the year through antici- pated earnings.
 Alaska Juneau earned net pro- fits of T cents per share in 1929, against 54 cents in 1928 and de- ficits in 1295, 1926 and 1927. A profit of 6 cents per share was earned in 1924. A deficit of $1,- 37O,O0O in 1927 and $5S8,OOO in 1928 had been changed to a surplus of $436,O0 in 1929.
 The book value of the company at the close of last year was ap- proximately $10.3O per share com- pared with $959 in 1928 and $902 in 1927.
 Company One of Largest
 Operating Anywhere
 Alaska Juneau Gold Mining Com pany was formed in 1897 and is
