New Fire Truck Balks
When Alarm Comes In
The new Ford firetruck re
cently acquired by the Fair
banks fire department, balked
jyesterday morning when an
effort was made to respond
'to a false alarm. Consider
!able excitement resulted in
'consequence, at the fireball
|and those opposed to the
purchase of the truck nodded
their heads wisely while the
ifiremen were trying to get
the machine started.
However, when a real fire
occurred several hours later,
the truck responded with a
promptness that restored the
fullest confidence.
To make doubly certain of
the reliability of the truck,
one of the councilmen turned
in a false alarm during the
afternoon and the manner
in which the machine got
away to the supposed fire
filled the city dads with ad
miration.
Efforts are being made by
local live wires to arrange an
excursion from Fairbanks for
;Labor Day. The plan is to
have the excursionists come
down on Sunday and return
on Monday. Success of the
plans depends upon the pos
sibility of the Fairbanks
.ball players making the trip
^or a two-game series.

Alaska Salmon Pack Has
Surprised Bureau Chief
Seattle, Sept. 1—The sal
Jmon pack of Alaska will be
| better than was anticipated,
'when the catch for the sea
son is totaled, according to
figures received here from
iWard T. Bower, chief agem
jof the bureau of fisheries,
iwho is now in the North on
a tour of inspection of the
coast fishing banks.
Humpies and chume are
reported plentiful. The run
on Prince William sound is
jnot so satisfactory, but Icy
'straits and Wester Alaska
^re doing better than was
anticipated. The pact in the
Southwestern district also
will be good one.
| In a statement recently is
sued by the chief agent, he
referred to the salmon fish
ery as easily outranking all
jOther Alaska fisheries in
[quantity, value and desirabil
ity of product. It consti
tutes, he said, the most high
ly developed and organized
•branch of the fisheries in
dustry and has come to be
the premier enterprise of the
North. Its development was
begun before the purchase
of Alaska by the United
States and it has grown un
til its activities now show
.an investment of $66,000,000
and products valued at ap
proximately $50,000,000.

One Pair Did Not Wear Out!
IT was a scientific expedition composed, of three
white men and live Indians.
They tramped clear across Labrador, five months of
that heart-breaking going through rough country
that simply means death to footwear.
One man wore Goodrich “Hi-Press” and the rest
• wore—other makes.
And before the traverse was completed every sol
itary boot and shoe had worn out except Goodrich!
The chief of the party (who wore the Goodrich) sent
the shoes into us as proof. You should see them —
the corrugations on the sole are not all worn off.
There is no doubt of the superior wearing quality
of Goodrich Rubber Boots and Shoes. It has been
proven time and again.
Fishermen, laborers, hunters, miners all agree that
the footwear with the Red Line Round the Pop
stands supreme for comfort and all around service.

BUREAU OF MINES
OFFICE IS BURNED
j The building occupied by
the Government bureau of
mines station, in Fairbanks,
was considerably damaged
by fire yesterday morning,
the office of the bureau being
completely wrecked, with the
loss of office fixtures and
papers and records of much
value to the station.
The fire was .discovered at
11 o'clock yesterday morn
ing by the stenographer but
had gained such headway
that it was impossible to
check the flames before they
had swept the office. The
rest of the building, however
was saved with only slight
damage to machinery and
station equipment. The chief
damage in the unburned
part of the structure was
caused by water.
The bureau building is sit
uated at the corner of Cush
'man and Fifth.

Mrs. C. M. Print:7, and
daughter, Miss Dorothv de

yesterday from Fairbanks,
where they spent a number
