 A self-washing automobile.
 An airplane that is not subject to the law of gravitntion.
 A golf ball with a photograph at- tachment that will sing out There [ am."
 An anglers scales that will cor roberate the fisherman's story.

ALASKA BECOMING POPULAR AS
 RESORT FOR TOURISTS

The Territory of Alaska, says a statement from the Department of the Interior, is becoming popular as a resort for tourists. Thirty five thousand excursionists last year visited Southeastern Alaska. An excursion of the Los Angeles Cham Der of Commerce took 173 people to the Far North, and is being re- peated this year with the expecta- tion that there will be 200 people in the party. Following the lead of Los Angeles, Seattle sent 37, and now the Portland Chamber of Com merce is sending an excursion of 80 people to Alaska, and the Sierra Club of San Francisco is also spon- soring a party. All of these agencies and many others will operate on excursions for the coming summer.
 The department regrets that many of these excursions go no further than Southeastern Alaska. It be- lieves that they would be more attractive from the tourist stand point if they included Seward and the trail to Fairbanks. This latter trip would include also visit to Mount Mckinley National Park which is one of the most beautiful of Uncle Sans groups of parks, including what is admittedly the most magnificent mountain in North America and the highest mountain in the world above it's base. Despite its attractiveness this park had less than a thousand visitors last year.
 This year the Alaska Railroad is also conducting a Government employees excursion from Wash ington to Alaska, and two or three of the great railroad systems in the United States and in Canada are likewise planning excursions from New York, Philadelphia, and Boston.
 Horace M. Albright, Director of the National Park Service, will visit Alaska this summer as will a number of Government officials interested in the reorgnnized ad- ministration of the Territory.

MOTHER BRAVES DEATH TO SAVE
 CHILDREN

SEATTLE,-Mrs A. B. ATntzen of this city dared flaming death to save her two children, Tony, seven years of age, and Wally, four, when fire destroyed the Arntzen home here.
 The fire started in the upper story of the building while Mrs. Arntzen was attending to her household duties on the ground floor. It had already gained great headway when she first discovered it by the cracking of the flames. Mrs. Arntzen rushed outside and screamed to a neighbor to send in the alarm. she then turned to the stairway and groped her way up ward through the strangling smoke to the bedroom where the two little boys lay.
 Crawling on hands and knees,. she made her way into the room only to have the roof crash down behind her, shutting off the exit by way of the stairs. Hastily knot ting together the sheets snatched from the bed, she lowered first Wally and then Tony to the ground. This done, she fastened the end of her improvised rope to the bedstead and tossing the other end out the window, came down to the street. Mrs. Arntzen sus- tained painful but not seriousI burns about the arms, face and neck. The boys were uninjured.

WHY CHILDREN SHOULD
 VISIT THE DENTIST

Here are six reasons why chil dren's teeth should be cared for:
 1. No child can chew his food properly with decayed, irregular or misplaced teeth. This over works the stomach and injures the digestion.
 2. Badly decayed, teeth will abscess. Assessed teeth can poison the child's system and may cause heart trouble, kidney trouble, stom- aeh trouble and rheumatism
 3. Badly d cayed, abscessed teeth must be cared for or ex- tIncted. Extraction may cause ir- regular and malformed jaws.
 4. Every neglected, decayed tooth may cause the tooth next to it to decay. Stop decay and thereby save teeth.
 5. Decayed, aching or abscess- ed teeth decrease a child's ability to study and often keep him out of school. This flinders his school work and this severely handicaps him in the race of life. Bulletin, Milwaukee Health De. partment.

Liquor Smuggling
 Halted at Detroit
Now Liquor Trickles Across From Canadian Side by the pint

DETROIT, April "A year ago liquor came across the Detroit river here by the case-in power boats, trucks, sleds and skiffs.
 Today it trickles in by the pint in such hip pocket flasks as elude sharp-eyed customs inspectors.
 This contrast in the size of smuggling operations at Detroit, says Col. Heinrich A. Pickert, col lector of customs, is the result of two things.
 More rigid patroling of the river and the friendly gesture" of the Canadian government in placing a ban on the export of liquor to prohibition countries.
 And Colonel Pickert frankly ad- mits that the bigger element was the Canadian ban for, he asks, was it not an uphill fight in the old days when 150 border patrolmen tried to hold in check an estimated 10000 men engaged in smuggling?
 The present state of affairs re- suited only after one of the most exciting episodes in the history of smuggling.
 During 1928 and 1929, and until the Canadian ban went into effect last spring, thousands of gallons of liquor a month started across the mile-wide river and most of it reached it's destination on the American shore.
 Official Canadian export records show some 4,OO0,00O gallons year of whiskey, beer and other liquors were cleared for the United States
 Estimates of value show that the business at one time amounted to as much as $5O,000,00O a year when profits of smugglers and bootleggers were taken into consideration.
 Numerous scandals came to light in connection with the smugglers' activities. Two years ago twenty-six border patrolmen of the customs service, along with a number of .smugglers, were indicted for bribery, and another twenty were exposed as bribe-takers in 1880. Most of them went to federal prisons.
 Stories were told of smugglers pulling up alongside patrol boats to throw in big rolls of bills and of patrolmen who received as much as $1,500 a week.
 Shooting, too, kept the border in turmoil as international notes flew back and forth regarding bullets allegedly fired by smugglers and patrolmen across the Canadian boundary, which is in the middle of the river.
 But now, says Colonel Pickert. the day of glory for smugglers is gone. Half a dozen cases today is a big seizure, whereas a h1l! ed or so was only fair-sized two years ago. Commercial smugglers, Col onel Pickert declares, could not op- crate profitably even if they succeed ed in getting by with six cases or so.
 As to the hip pocket cases, the collector adds, they just keep the inspectors at ferry docks, bridge and tunnels from getting rusty"

FAIRBANKS. March l6-17, (P
 Worried over the failure of Pilot Fred Moller, (the flying pros pector), to return to Fairbanks from flight to Eagle. Fort Yukon and Circle, friends here wired to those points today and received an answer that he is unreported.
 He left Fairbanks week ago and intended to stop first at Eagle. Circle reports say they heard the plane there and was about thirty miles away, heading in the direction of Charley River, and is still unreported todate.
 Moller. is an old time sourdough miner and prospector, and was in the Nome section in the early days. He visited Nome last win ter when he volunteered to aid in the Eielson search. He is now head of an independent airplane company at Fairbanks, which ca teers principally to carrying min CTS and proepeotors into the hills.
