4 FLEXIBLE substitute for glass with character
lstics just the reverse of glass is being marketed
by E. 1. du Pont de Nemours & Co. The material,
known as cel-o-gass, was originally developed by
Acetol Products Inc
1t consists of transparent plastic material ap-
piled to a wire mesh like that used for window
screens. Whereas glass let's through the heat or in
tra-red rays and keeps ot the ultra violet rays cell
o-gass does just the opposite keeping out the heat
waves and letting the ultraviolet come through.
Following tests at the Ohio Agricultural Expert
mental Station and other laboratories the new ma
teria is finding widespread use on farms for windows
in chicken houses. Here it has two values.
MOST important is the fact that cel-o-glass per-
1V1 mits the ultraviolet rays in the sunshine to en-
ter the chicken house. Its second usefulness lies in
the fact that it will not transmit heat rays Conse-
quenty in the winter time less heat escapes through
the material than does through ordinary glass and
the chicken house stays This in turn it has
been found, has direct effect upon the egg-laying
activities of the hens.
A seven month test by Dr. C. H. Howard Of Rut-
gers University showed that egg production was
doubled with the use of cel-o-glass.
Experiments at the Ohio Agricultural Station in
dcated that baby chicks healthier when raised
in houses with cel-o-glass because Of the ultra
violet radiation received.
THE installation of cel-o-glass Is simple because

In addition there is no danger Of the material be-
ing broken by a haistorm Of heavy snowstorm
Tests made at the Brighton Nurseries at Lynwood.

success for the construction Of hot beds cold frames

VETERAN drivers believe that

feel that pilot must possess

luck if it holds we'll for him.
They realize that a drivers

car. and that the condition of mis-
mount generally depends upon the
fitness of the garage mechanic
who put it together. More than
passing concern also is given to

ming of the race, and the riding
mechanician who, if he knows his
business. can be of great assist
ance 20 his driver.

 On July Is, 1884, Bellanca pom toon ship of the Northern Air Trans port Co., chartered by the archaeo- logical expedition from the Alaska College and piloted by Chief Pilot Ross, took off from Norton Sound near Nome. On board were four members or half of the expedition, MT. Oliver, president of the com pany, and the pilot. Although we passed directly over the island, heavy fog banks hid it completely from view and we were forced to return. Three hours afterward we landed on Nome River at Fort Davis near Nome. Later Eskimos told us they had heard our motor through the fog although we were invisible.
 Two days later we again took off after seeing the rest of the party leave for the island on small trad ing schooner. This time we took off from Safety Lagoon at Cape Nome. The compass bearing was set for the center of the island but northerly winds made the plane drift, causing us to touch the island first at North east Cape.
 Once in the air we soon left land and flew quickly away from the re- treating hills of Seward Peninsula. From our superior height the wind whipped water looked like Cole ridges painted sea. Sledge Island at the portal of Nome slipped swift ly by. Triumphantly we passed ov- CT the less fortunate trading schoon- CT which was tossing below, though it seemed to us immobile in leaden sea.

Girl Tells Of
 First Flight To
 St. Lawrence Is

Miss Mary Mikami, honor graduate of the Anchorage High School and the Alaska Collgee, daughter of Mir. and Mrs. Harry Mikami of Anchor age who accompanied the scientific ex petition toa ast. Lawrence Island last summer as secretary, has written the following interesting article, appear ing in the Farthest North Collegian:
 Story of Flight
 Isolation in the truest sense of the word is the lot of Bureau of In- dian Affairs teachers and the nurse, the only white people among some five hundred Eskimos, stationed on St. Lawrence Island. From late fall suntil early summer the treacherous pack ice hems in the island, making it inaccessible by boat. The wireless is the only contact with the outside world for at least nine long months.
 In the past there have been re- quests for air transportation to St. Lawrence Island, but aviators have avoided flight to the island on ac- count of the supposed dangers con- nected herewith. Lying in the Der ing Sea, this ~desolate island is dir ectly in the path of northerly storms which sweep down through funnel. like Boring Strait Pickle and treach- erous is the weather in this sub-arc- tic region of shifting wind and sud- den storm. Moreover, the island is more often than not obscured by heavy fog banks or curtains of rain For these reasons it was not until last summer that flight was made to St. Lawrence Island.
 At one time arrangements were made to have an airplane bring Sep illu, King of St. Lawrence Island" !, wealthy Eskimo, to Nome for med

and Anchorage will be the daily local hops out of this port to nearby settlements The time near at hand when the flights this great major route will be more than sailings of shps-and Anchorage will win national we'll territorial recognition as great air base of Alaska.
 The accident which occurred to the plane bearing the Reed party resulting in damage to landing gear by reason striking obstacle in the takeo is example of what may be expected in pioneering flights along the route and points emphatcay to the necessity of establishment of suit able emergency fields and aports along such future major routes Such improvements before the country expect expansion of air to the maximum They will come and the sooner the better-Anchorage Times
