PROSPECTOR IS
, BELIEVED LOST
AT M’CARTHY
Started from Chisana for Fair
banks Last June, and Has
Not Since Been Heard
of—Queries Sent
(From McCarthy News)
Lost Prospector
Reports have been received from
Chisana of the discovery of a man’s
belongings sixty miles below Chisana
by Jack Lawrence while on his way
up river with his dogs; and the fact
that A. H. Behrman, who left Mc
Carthy in May last on a prospecting
^ trip, has not been seen since he left
Chisana in June, make it probable
that another prospector has lost his
life crossing the swift streams of
Alaska. This young man, who was
the son of J. W. Behrman of Kenne
wick, Wash., was employed by the
Kennecott corporation last winter,
and left with Lysle Brown in May,
traveled as far as Chisana in his
company, then went on alone, saying
he intended to travel to Fairbanks.
The News nas written to Fairbanks
to ascertain if by chance the young
man has reached there, though Jack
Lawrence met no one on his trip
over that route.

Motion Picture Is the Real Universal Language {
T1 HE real universal language, the one that is understood everywhere without
1 study, is the motion picture. This has been demonstrated recently by a I
number of American exporters who are using the movie for such difficult tasks I
as selling shoes to Asiatics who al- 1
ways have gone barefoot, and soap to
natives who regard water exclusively
as a beverage.
The movie does not enter easily
into domestic trade, or even into
trade between equally civilized coun
tries. But when it comes to trading
with the hinterland people of the
tropics, who are just becoming ac
quainted with modern conveniences,
the movie is a boon.
A great difficulty which American
trade has encountered in foreign countries is the cautious attitude of natives
toward a new proposition.
For example, it is no easy matter to convince the people of an Indian
village that an American chair is a desirable piece of furniture. Even if the
sales agent speaks their language and employs eloquent arguments even if
he sits on the queer-looking object—the natives hesitate. In such a situation
the moving picture often has saved the day and the salesman’s reputation. He
runs off a reel of film in the village market place or in a building.
The native sees chairs in process of construction from harmless pieces of
wood. '
He gets used to the idea of a chair.
