ATTRACTIONS OF ALASKA SCHEME Here is what the Seattle Times says of the continuation of the Pacific highway to Alaska : Judge Wickersham's suggestion that an air route be established along the proposed extension of the Pacific highway from British Columbia to Alaska is sound. It wou d be practicable to develop landing fields as the automobile road is extended through the wilderness. Whether the air route should be established first is a debatable question . At present, seaplanes, using the inside passage, parallel the proposed roud over land . The course of the new Highway will be through forests now trackless, across mdlintains and deep canyons and generally through the wildest and most picturesque region on the continent. On some of its unbridged streams trappers and miners have established feeble outposts. Moose, grizzly bear and mountain sheep are present in great numbers . Its rushing rivers have enormous potential water power . Its mineral resources are so great that their extent can be merely conjectured .

"THIS SALE OF MINE seems to worry some people. Some intimate that my going out of business is a joke; that I've got too good a business to quit just yet "TELL THESE PEOPLE I forgive them . Tell them also that since I can't accept the advice of hundreds who offer theirs, I am going right along ir, my own way. Romind them that this store is for rent and all the fixtures are for sale.

The Response to This Big Selling Out Sale Has Been Great IT HURTS TO SEE merchandise that is big value at regular selling prices going at less than factory prices during this sale. I'M GLAD, though, that my regular customers are taking advantage of this opportunity. THE ENTIRE STOCK is sacrificed to meet the contingency. IT'S FORTUNATE there's a limit to this sale. I couldn't afford to pocket such losses for long. BUT WHILE I'M LOSING, you'd better profit. Never again at such prices. Buy With Confidence. Don't Pay Full Prices for Anything. It Isn't Necessary!
