In school in Sydney and came to New
Guinea two years previously to help
Harding run his small feet of motor
schooners engaged in coastal copra
carrying.
l heard with surprise that Haliman
had had a dispute with his uncle
and had left his service to run a
schooner of his own. Even then, how
ever, I did not connect the trouble

with the news of the boys death.
Young Haliman, he told me, had
left him following violent quarrel,
which had pretty clearly been en-
gendered by Sam Gruden. Haliman
had for some time been paying his
respects to Patricia, the Samarai resi-
dents attractive daughter. Pat was
q very nice girl and liked her. But
I was also aware that she was a
most flirtatious young woman despite
her engagement to rich fellow prac-
ticing law in Sydney. Haliman did
not know this, but Jack did, and
in his affectionate but clumsy manner
tried to warn the boy.
Haliman was annoyed and went

The next day he left port in a
schooner he had only recently pur-
chased. The significant fact emerged
later that money to complete the final
payment on the vessel had been ad-
vanced by Gruden to Haliman the
previous night.
Harding thought that few weeks
at sea would cool the hot-headed
youngster, but made up his mind to
find him before that time If it we're
possible to do so.
He traced Haliman's boat from
samarai to Madang, and there learned
that his nephew had made trip
up the Sepik to get one of the famous
Sepik parrots. Harding smiled grimly
at this, for he remembered that the
boy had promised to secure for
Patricia one of these fgayly colored
birds, which are unrivaled through
out the world for their ability to pick
UP the words of their masters.
For eight days Harding haunted
the unfrequented waterways of the
archipelago, and at the last he found
the missing lad.

GLACIER PRIEST PLANS
NEW TESTS IN ALASKA
Leaves Sunday to Sit on Taku

How Warm It Is.

BY the Associated Press.
VICTORIA, British Columbia, Au-
gust 6.-Father Bernard Hubbard,
Glacier priest, will leave for Alaska
Sunday to sit on the Taku ice cap,
Just to find out how warm it is.
That is the way he hopes to prove
that ice caps in Greenland and in
the Antarctic are not 10000 feet
deep, as claimed by Admiral Byrd
and other explorers.
Snow, piling up, creates pressure.
and pressure creates heat, and heat
melts, Father Hubbard said
so" he went on, I'VE are going
TO determine just how much pressure
In takes to melt the glaciers at their
base and how deep glacier has to
be to develop sufficient pressure to
generate sufficient heat to start the
melting process"
Working on his theory of pressure
creating heat and melting the glaciers
at their base, the Jesuit scientist ex-
poets to prove that the greatest depth
q glacier can have is 1000 feet.

the same lengths, have

self does much to eliminate "pitch-
Ing" and tossing" but Nash engin-
eers have found . way to overcome
another and equally serious obstacle
to the perfect ride, fabrication. Nash
springs are never fabricated nor do
they ever need fabrication during the
life Of the car. A fact well known to
engineers, but Of which the layman
still remains uninformed, Is that lu-
brication, and particularly excessive
fabrication, has been one Of the great
est offenders against riding comfort.
II fabricated springs were designed
to ride well In warm weather, it was
q certainty that in cold weather they
would be too stiff to operate easily.
II the situation were reversed and
they rode well when the thermometer
registered freezing temperatures,
'bouncy" ride in the summer was the
result. Nash engineers set out to find
. better way to build springs that
needed no fabrication, and succeeded.
Develops Unique Inserts
Friction Is one Of the factors that
determine the flexibility Of any leaf
type springs and, inasmuch as in this
system the tips Of the leaf are the
only part Of the spring that carry
car weight, they are the points at
which friction must be controlled. In
order to control friction and at the
same time eliminate squeaks, Nash
engineers developed unique inserts
which are placed under the tips Of
the spring leaves. Numerous tests
have proved that the inserts them
selves will outlast the normal life OF
the springs and with them Nash
springs operate without fabrication,
and spring friction remains constant
for the life Of the car.
To prevent the entrance Of dirt or
water the springs are sealed in heavy

Again In 1884 Chevrolet finished q
most successful year, leading the COM

Gales Of 10000 units. This Is the
largest volume Of sales We have made
Ia any year, with one exception, and
It represents gain Of $4,000 units or
- per cent over 1858.
Our truck sales outlook for 1895 =
increasingly optimistic. Many plans
anaNgurated ct the outset Of the 1885
selling season give added promise for
. substantial volume Of sales for this
year. The economy and dependability
that has been proved BY the perform
ance Of our 1894 commercial line has
added to the already well established
name that Chevrolet has created for
itself In the track field.
As We 60 into . new year, We have
carried out our policy Of constant I'm
provement Of our truck products With
greater reserve strength. greater power
to move loads easier, and greater
ability to stop them safely. with
these principles In mind, we have In.
troduced many new features In our
1886 line which includes 20 body types
dn four wheelbases, priced to . greater
advantage than ever before. Early In
the year, We introduced New Stand

our commercial car line.
Increased power and pulling ability
have been made possible by IN in
crease Of 10 horsepower in the truck
motor and the fact that the highest
torque Is reached at usable truck
speeds. Much attention has been
focused On brakes and this year we
have added bigger brake drums, and
improved brake lining. Brake designs
have been charged to produce greater
leverage with less pedal pressure re-
quired. In this way. 1t was possible
to reduce the distance required to
stop by one-half. Stronger front

creased stability and safety.
Truck buyers have expressed their
confidence In Chevrolet trucks BY
buying more in 1884 than any other
make Of trucks. We feel sure that
these satisfied owners and the econ-

will enable Chevrolet dealers to beat
