For Better Rubbers
Don’t ask for “Pacs” but ask for
THE “BALL-BAND” YUKON
especially designed and built
for the men of Alaska.
Only the best quality of pure gum rubber is used and the
shoe is vulcanized by Special Process, thoroughly uniting
all parts of the upper, the sole, the stays and linings into
a one-piece construction that defies hard wear. The
sturdy rubber bottom is well reinforced where other
rubbers soon wear through.
Rubbers built like these will stand freezing, scuffing,
stubbing and the daily grind of working in rock or wet
gravel.
Set a. pair of “Ball-Band” Yu
kons beside a pair of any other
brand—compare the finish and
the workmanship — you can
easily see that the “Ball-Band”
shoe is superior.
Then remember that “Ball
Band” footwear is worn by nine
and one-half million people, who
have learned by experience that
the Red Ball trade-mark stands
for the utmost in quality,
service, and satisfaction.
More days wear
in every pair

WESTWARD AREA STRONG
FOR TRIM MUM
“I note with pleasure that The Sew
ard Gateway is supporting the candi
dacy of Thomas A. Marquam,” writes
Frank J. Wilson, well known oldtimer
and citizen of Ikutan, Bristol bay.
“There is a mighty fine bunch of sour
doughs living around here,” Mr. Wil
son continued, “all of them having re
sided in this district for years and
every one of them is for Marquam.
Being Sourdoughs you can plainly see
how impossible it will be for us to
vote for a man who would slander
Alaska, or Alaskans. Personally I do
not believe Dan Sutherland will poll
one vote from this part of the country.
“Recently I was over to Sanak Is
land and the men around there feel
the same way. Candidate Marquam
will carry every vote around here. A
Marquam club was formed on the is
land recently with headquarters at
False Pass.’’
