Prosperity
The prosperity of any community depends very largely upon the
ooperation manifested by the many individuals and institu
tions forming the community. There can be no lasting prosperi
ty or genuine progress in the life of any community without
honest cooperation between all elements that in any way affect
the common welfare.
So it is with Alaska. No one section of this great land can
prosper for long at the expense of any other section; all construc
tive efforts must be so coordinated that but one outcome will re
sult—Cooperation; and Cooperation means Prosperitl.
It is the constant aim of The Alaska Railroad to at all times
render such service as will beet sarvs the citisens of the entire
Territory.

EDUCATION WEEK
American Education Week is up
on us and but for the fact that we
! note from editorial comment that
• from the 7th to the 13th Is set
i aside for this week, we would not
know of it in Petersburg.
“The purpose,” according to the
Bureau of Education, “is to ac
quaint the public with the work
and needs of the schools. The fol
lowing program has been suggested
by the sponsors: Sunday, For God
and Country Day; Monday, Consti
tutional Rights Day; Tuesday, Pa
triotism Day; and Saturday, Com
munity Day.”
It is believed that the observ
vancc of American Education Week
has been highly successful and has
produced large results by way of in
teresting the American people in
schools and school needs. The Bu
reau of Education hopes that obser
vance of the week will be continued
with the same enthusiasm that has
n arked its recent history.

There’s This “Human
Side” To Gasoline
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 ace
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 so
excel. For when they do excel they rise,
and are promoted, and their wives, their
children and their friends are proud of
them.
You know what it
means. 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 die "kick” from
that.
So it is with “Union
Oil,” with Union Oil di
rectors and employes.
Serve Yew”
They want to make a better gasoline,
a better oil, to satisfy a natural desire to
work, achieve, surpass, succeed, for It iB
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-carbonfzing Western
ARISTO Motor Oil, their conviction,
we believe, would convince you. Their
belief would inspire yours. Their enthu
siasm makes you enthusiastic.
In them yon would find the “person*
ality” m “Union” and “Aristo,” for these
sample-looking liquids are “the children”
of these men.
* a * *
If you could make one trip through a
Union Oil refinery and a research plant,
which would remind yon of a univer
sity, yon would never
again think of non-deto
rating Union Gasoline and
non-carbonizing Western
ARISTO Motor Ofl re
anything else but fattens*
ly human things.
And you would be, ae
we are, so naturally and
logically prejudiced in
favor of them that yon
would use them always in
your car thereafter*
