Hubbard's Party Arrives at NOnle;
 Records Claimed

NOME, Alaska, Aug. 16.-The Rev. B. R. Hubbard's Arctic Expedi- tion has returned here after 2000- mile journey in walrus skin boat. The leader of the expedition claims the world record for the longest outboard boat trip on the open ocean, extending to Point Barrow and beyond, from King Island, and also the longest skin boat cruise ever made.
 The priest is accompanied by Ken Chisholm, Ed Levin and six King Island Eskimos. The party is weary but healthy and the objectives have been accomplished.
 The white men of the party are recuperating at Pilgrim Springs Mission
 The Eskimos were welcomed by about 175 King Islanders who are summer camping here. A feature is storytelling. The native camp is also marked by the return of Chief Isaacs and other natives with the Hubbard party.

MARIE BRAKES
 "ALASKANA"| IS
 NOW OFF PRESS
Juneau Woman Writes Vol- ume on Territory Worthy
 of Commentator

With over fifty illustrations and 43 pages of condensed information on the Territory of Alaska, Alas kama" by Marie Drake, is off the press.
 Marie Drake, Deputy Commis- sioner of Education, has been a resident of Juneau for many years, knows Alaska from front to back door and has been compiling her re- cent publication for long time.
 It is definitely valuable addi- ton to Alaskan libraries and valu- able as information for Alaskans and tourists It is well written with out superfluities, and yet is marked by the color of the writer's intimate knowledge of her subject.
 Alaska, broad subject, has been well covered in this handy size 51a by "A inch book Set in a readable open type and well balanced illus tratively, the book is most attrac- tive.
 Early day Alaska is swiftly and accurately outlined where most books have either skipped essentials or gone into ponderous uninterest- ing detail.
 Present day Alaska is described, section by section, city by city, in rapid fire order that gives the tour ist perhaps. the quickest conception available of what to expect in tour of the Territory.
 Economically and geographically, Marie Drake has told a short story of an Alaska with rich stores and rosy promise She has told all that is necessary of Alaska without emitting Alaska's flag, flower and song.
 For an informative publication on Alaska, the meat of the unanswered question can be found in Alas kama" by Marie Drake, published by The Empire Printing Company in Juneau, Alaska, and now on sale.
 Marie Drake has done fine work in "Alaskana," and The Empire joins with the Territory in appreeia- tion and commendation.

 AID already had found that the more he advertised and the nsore bottles he sold, the Ter it cost him to put up each 5ottle. There foe, as his advertising was extended all over the country and his sales ine,sasrd, he redueed the pfice. Thus more and more pso- pie could afford to enjoy tomato juice, and, although his profit per bottle was now very small indeed, he sold so many bottles that he had very fine business: So both AD and his customers were benefited.

 FILM ENDING
That Certain Woman Dramatic Screen Ro-
 nance at Coliseum

Nov it may be told why Edmund Goulding started filming "That Certa Woman ending tonight at the Coliseum Theatre, on a grave yard set
 T didn't want the somber thought of the graveyard scenes to be hover ing ahead of us in our work" the director explained. Tt was purely psychological, reason, but I be- lieve it has much practical utility" :"
 Bette Davis, Henry Fonda, Ian Hunter, Anita Louise and others in the cast voted their apprecia- ton. None is superstitious, but there's something about a. grave yard in prospect that isn't too exhilarating. Particularly the sort of foggy, mysterious scene de- scribed in a brief episode of the That Certain woman script.
 Goulding is quite the psycholo- gist and philosopher in his picture making. Unlike so many directors who worry about camera angles, and jump their players through the figurative hoops of trick photogra- phic effects, he dees everything pos sible to make the task of his cast as easy as possible.
 In this manner, he believes, they will be able to do their best work,

ARMOUR, HALL IN GOLDWYN'S
 'HURRICANE''
Colorful South Sea Film Ends Tonight at Cap
 itol Theatre

Samuel Goldwyn'ss The Hurri- cane," which has it's final showing at the Capitol Theatre tonight, opens with the wedding of the na- tive lovers, Terangi and Marama. Their short-lived happiness ends abrup ly when Terangi, returning to Tahiti with the schooner of which he is first mate, strikes q drunken white man who insults him. The man has influence, so Terangi is imprisoned. Yearning to see Ma rama, he attempts to escape, but is apprehended and his sentence ex- tended. In the ensuing five years, he makes several unsuccessful att tenpts and in his final break acci- dentally kills a guard.
 Terangi finds his way to his na- tive island, but cannot remain there because of the attitude of the duty ridden French Administrator, De- Lage, played by Massey. He takes refuge on neighboring island where he is reunited with his bride and sees his little daughter. While the search for him is at it's height. the great hurricane begins to blow. Unmindful of his own safety Ter angi goes to Manukura to warn the inhabitants and plays heroic role in the great catastrophe. Although most of the inhabitants of the is land are lost, Terangi is able to save his wife and child and the sympathetic Madame De Laage, beautifully played by Mary Astor, who mercedes with her husband to close his eyes to Terangi's escape to freedom and a new life. c. Au- brey Smith, as usual, gives a splen- did performance as the priest, Father Paul, and Thomas Mitchell is excellent as the thirsty Dr. Ker- saint John Carradine and Jerome Cowan also score as the warden and the schooner captain, respectively.

 But I am not of this opinion When someone takes the trouble to write personal letter I think he is entitled to a prompt and con- sidered reply. I have not always lived up to this but I believe it just the same. And I doubt that a rub Der stamp is altogether satisfac- tory to a man who inquiries: Are the horse cars still running on 14th street? And what hotel would you recommend when I come to New York on my vacation?"
 I think if I were to write some one a letter and it went unac- knowledged I would experience a secret twinge of embarrassment. I wouldn't say anything about it but I would resent it just the same. And for that reason I am wonder ing what Mrs. R. S., of Berkeley, and MT R. H. s. of St. Paul must think of me today Not much, I imagine For this is what hap pened: Today while transferring a lot of bric-a -brac to a new desk I came across letters from these peo- pie, letters received months ago and still unanswered.

Ancient Creek
 City Reported
 Found, France

a AVIGNON, France, Aug. 16-The discovery of a 220O-year-old Greek city, in Southern France, recently startled French archeologists.
 This section of France is dotted with Roman ruins but this is the first intimation that the Greeks, also, had settled there at least two hundred years before Christ.
 Excavations which are proceed ing under the direction of Jules Formige of the French Ministry of Fine Arts showed that life in the ancient city had been luxurious, prosperous and attractive. Many Greek coins which had been mint ed at nearby Marseilles were also found.

Just Say Phooey to Those Who Tell You, You Are
 Pooling Away Time
By GEORGE TUCKER

NEW YORK, Aug. IS. < People occasionally write me letters and when they do answer them as best I can. I am not a good letter writer My letters seem forced and are never as clever as I wish them to be. But I write them just the same. And when they seem less satisfactory than usual try to take consolation in the old bromide that writers aren't supposed to be good correspondents anyway.
 But that isn't very convincing not when you have letters in your files from people who can really write letters, people like Phil Stong and Jim Pulley. When you read your own letters after reading theirs it makes you vince. But there isn't anything you can do about it but drop them in the mail-basket and look the other way.

Nerve specialists contend that

bad things to other drivers re-

it is recorded in contemporary and

position.
The dog has such an infinite
capacity to take punishment that he
shames his master into calmer re-
actions to annoyances. The dog
may look reproachfully at the
master who has struck him, but will
attempt no retaliation. This sit
