To Spencer Glacier
“THROUGH THE LOOP”
AND RETURN VIA THE ALASKA RAILROAD
All visitors to Alaska whose time will not permit them to
make the Interior Trip to Fairbanks, are urged to follow the
Sunday Excursion from Seward to Spencer Glacier and return—■
by far the most interesting, educational and attractive short
trip to bo had in Alaska. Route follows the shore of picturesque
Kenai Lako several miles; passes through the Kenai Mountains
and Bhaft-like Placer River canyon; traverses the mountainous
“Loop District,” and offers travelers marvelous close-up views
of mighty kBartlet and Spencer Glaciers. This Special Sunday
Excursion, covering a totai of 124 miles, offers visitors making
the roundtriy on same steamer an opportunity to see a generous
portion of Interior Alaska scenic offerings during layover of the
boat at Seward—and Is tremendously worth while. Excursion
leaves Seward at 8:00 a. m. and returns at 2:15 p.m., allowing
travelers ample time to connect with steamer for return to
Seattle. For details of trip see agent at Seward Dock.
$7.50 FOR THE ROUND TRIP.

WHY DENY .VICE EXISTENCE?
1 It is rather amusing to read the
Subsidized Press of Alaska and note
With what glee the editors republish
and reiterate any reference to the
American Magazine article that cri
ticised some of the “fest” spots of
i Alaska. They sec-m to think that if
i t hey could show that Delegate Suth
erland in any way endorsed the art
icle that it would mean his doom
i
I for reelection. They make no at
i
j tempt to deny specific facts stated
, hut seek to create the impression
that all Alaskans were “attacked”
and all sections were referred to.
Of course in all frontier cities and
towns vice conditions have always
and do now exist. They are recog
S"5 ized but hard to control. San Fran
i.sco had her Barbary Coast for
| years, but public sentiment and ci
| vie pride eventually secured its
abolishment . Seattle had her re
cent Olmstead bootlegging scandal
i that involved police and business
men. Recently the Gaines atrocity
shocked the country, but a jury in
Seattle returned a verdict of guilty
| against the offender and decreed
that he should hang.
Notwithstanding these and other
notorious offenses, which were rec
ognized but not condoned, San
Francisco and Seattle continue to
grew and prosper. The people of
liiese cities know that there always
will be law violations, and they
everlastingly seek to curb them
rather then to deny or ignore their
existence. So, in Ketchikan, Bris
tol Bay, and even Juneau, there has
been ample cause for sane and rea
sonable housecleaning. It is a con
dition that affects local people and
communities. Tourists passing
tiru in greater numbers than ever
before,do not linger long enough to
have their sensibilities shocked.
Thevare delighted with the scenic
wonders of the Northern trip.
We are all prone to slip or fall in
j one way or another, bnt ehould be
! the feeling of every public spirited
| and decent minded Alaskan to
want his town to exist and prosper
There’s
Side”
and Oil—
A 'very human one, we think—here in the West—to Union Non
detonating Gasoline and Aristo Motor Oil. And we believe that
you’ll be interested in it
§
YOU, probably, don’t think much
about the gasoline and oil you use.
You buy a good grade. One makes your
motor go. The other lubricates it. You
don’t check up very accurately on mile
age or on costs. You simply get “ten
gallons” or “a quart,” and off you go.
It’s rather impersonal.
* * * *
And yet a gallon of gasoline and a
quart of oil are chock-full of personality!
There is the personality of those ex
tremely human beings who are intensely
interested in making theirs the best, even
if it be. by but a shade—and there are
people like that in oil companies, just as
you may be like that in the business you
are in.
Speaking for this Company, we can
*ay that we have hundreds of them—
all vibrant personalities and all eager to
excel. For when they do excel they rise,
and are promoted, and their wives, their
children and their friends are proud of
them.
iou Know wnat it
Cleans. It isn’t extra
money in a salary raise or
a large income that you
enjoy so much. It is the
achievement of which the
money is the evidence, and
you get the “kick” from
that.
So it is with “Union
Oil,” with Union Oil di
rectors and employes.
They want to make a better gasoline,
a better oil, to satisfy a natural desire to
work, achieve, surpass, succeed, for it is
simply human to do that.
* * * *
If you could ask any of our chemists,
or Union Oil refiners, or research men
—the men who handle the processes, or
those who check results — about the
quality of non-detonating Union Gaso
line and non-carbonizing Western
ARISTO Motor Oil, their conviction,
we believe, would convince you. Their
belief would inspire yours. Their enthu
siasm makes you enthusiastic.
In them you would find the “person
ality” in “Union” and “Aristo,” for these
simple-looking liquids are “the children”
of these men.
* * * +
If you could make one trip through a
Union Oil refinery and a research plant,
which would remind you of a univer
sity, you would never
again iiiinK ui nun-ucw*
nating Union Gasoline and
non-carbonizing Western
ARISTO Motor Oil as
anything else but intense
ly human things.
And you would be, as
we are, so naturally and
logically prejudiced in
favor of them that you
would use them always in
your car thereafter..

with the least possible law infrac
tion^ Instead of denying the ex
istence of what is apparent to every
casual inquirer there should be mani
fested a daring spirit for at least
reasonable reforms. It is the cour
age of faith that insures victory in
making Alaska towns safe and re
spectable for wives and children.
These thoughts have been suggest
ed to me after hearing the prphetic
words of one of America’s greatest
divines, Dr. Mark A. Matthews, of
Seattle. He seems to have visioned
some of the Alaska towns when he
recently declared: “Righteousness ;
exalteth a nation, but sin is a re
proach to any people. A city that
tolerates vice, condones crime, vio
lates law, disregards authority and
repudiates its obligations, is a city
that is already doomed and damned.
But a city that obeys law, respects
authority.”
TOM VOUCHES FOR HIMSELF
As "Independent” candidate Tom
Marquam did not declare himself on
any public issue during his summer
roving thru the First division, many
are wondering just what his Con
gressional issue will be when he
returns south on his “Farewell”
tour. Possibly a little light may be
thrown on the subject from a ver
sion given by a recent passenger
from the westward. He says that
Tom was making a loud and ag
gressive speech over there, when a
colored man in the rear of a hall
said to a companion, “Who Is dat
man speakin’?” And Mose replied,
“1 doan know, but he certainly do
recommend hisself , most highly.”
o.nd the Seward Gateway, after first
lauding Tom to .the skies in the
Delegate contest, now seriously ad
monishes its readers. “Let your
conscience be your guide.” But
then Tom will have had fine long
vacation in the enjoyment of part
of the “slush fun.” and that’s more
then his other “Independent” can
didates will get out of the campaign.
