Mr. Business Man—Look over your delivery equipment
and ask yourself if you’d be proud of your trucks if they
were parked in front of your home. If the least in doubt,
whether they create a favorable impression, drop in at the
NOME MOTOR CO.
Main Street, and look over the complete line of Chevrolet
Trucks and Commercial Cars—you'll find the type that
suits your business perfectly. You'll find, too, that Chev
rolet Trucks are as practical, inexpensive and economical, as
they are good looking.

Mining machinery, a gas shovel,
and possibly four trucks, are destin
ed for Tin City, and are now aboard
the S. S. Northwind of the Arctic
Transport Company, which sailed
from Seattle the other day.
They are consigned to the Ameri
can Tin Fields Inc. of Seattle, and
will be discharged at Tin City when
the vessel arrives.
Last year’s surveys of property
were made along Cape Creek and
approximately a mile and half of tin
bearing ground was lined up. For
merly it was the property of George
D. Schofield Sr., and the late Tom |
Petersen of Teller. It is now con-1
trolled by the American Tin Fields |
Inc., which will carry on operations
there this summer according to the
reports received in Nome.
A separation or conversion mill is
to be constructed near Bering Sea
and water pumped to the mill. The
tin gravel is to be brought to the
mill by trucks, with the gas shovel |
digging it out of the ground.
This is but one of the new mining
ventures coming to Seward Penin
sula mining section this summer. In
fact, this proceedure of mining ras
never before been used in this sec
tion, but according to the informa- (
tion received, there are better than
fair chances of making a complete j
success of it.

Kent Taylor, Lona Andre, Irving
Pichel, Gail Patrick and Warren
Hymer play the leading roles in.
Zane Greys The Mysterious Rider,
an action-romance of the West which
comes to the Dream Theatre Friday
night.
Taylor plays the role a of hard-riding
straight.shooting, lariait-swinging
rancher, devoted to his land and re
spected by his neighbors, whose
leader he is. When Pichel, an un
scrupulous lawyer, discovers that
the valuable land in the valley has
never been legally transferred to
its present owners, and buys the
original grant, it is Taylor who is
entrusted with the money the ran
chers raise to legalize their claim.
But when Pichel learns that a
powerful financier will give him
more money for the claim, he craft
ily accepts Taylors funds and con
trives to make it appear that the
latter has absconded with them.
Taylor is tossed into jail, but he es
capes to risk his own life in saving
his fellow.ranchers.
