IF YOUR HOUSE WERE ON FIRE
Would you write a letter askin,
some mail order concern to put ou
the blaze? Not you, You'd jump for th
nearest telephone and speed along ;
hurry-up call to your local fire depart
ment—and they would respond in
stantly. Who pays for that fire pro
tection, anyway? Mail order concerns
Not much. Its running expenses conn
out of the city's taxes—and those tax
es are paid by the people who livt
here—citizens like you—and mer
chants.
That money must come out of tin
pockets of home people. Then spenc
your money with local dealers—keei
it in circulation here, where it wil
buy not only fire protection, but bet
ter roads, better schools,’ better parks
better libraries—better everything
that must be bought with money tak
en from the city’s coffer.'
Not one penny of the money you
spend with mail order concerns is
passed along to anyone in this vicin

ity. You get the goods it purchases.
J You wear them out or eat them up.
And that’s the end of it. Who here, in
this town gains by it? Not a soul!
You may think you do. May be de
luded with the idea that you saved
money. A comparison of local dealer’s
* prices and those of mail order con
* cerns will prove you’re wrong.
In return for yoty home-sp ent dol
- lar the dealer delivers to you without
f cost for delivery the biggest quantity
and quality worth that dollar can pur
" chase. The profit portion of that dol
lar stays right here at home. A share
5 of it finally finds its way into the pay
3 of firemen and policemen—it helps
jj foot the bills for many public improve
_ ments. It makes your town a better
7 town. And buys goods that can’t be
bettered in quality at prices that can’t
be beat for real savings.
? Don’t clog the city’s fire plugs and
throw stumbling blocks in the way of
more perfect public “service” by send
1 ing your dollars to distant dealers.
You enjoy the benefits paid for
by home business men—then do busi
| ness at home.

HEAVY DAMAGE BY FIRES 1
IN VICINITY OF FAIRBANKS
Forest fires have done great dam
age this year to forests in the vicinity
of Fairbanks, the unsually dry weath
er causing the moss and undergrowth
to dry out to a point where they ig
nite easily.
The Gateway was in error in stat
ing that the Count’s parly killed a
brown bear last week. The animal
was a black one.
HEALY BRIDGE BE REPAIRED
According to Major Gotwals the
; bridge over the Nenana river, destroy
, ed by floods this summer, will be re
paired some time in October, or as
soon as the present high water sub
| sides. The flood which took the old
bridge out was over the track before
it washed away, showing the excel
lent construction of the structure.
It is surprising how quick inflama
tion is helped by camphor, hydrastis,
witchhazel, etc., as mixed in Lavoptik
eye wash. One small bottle help any
case of sore, weak or strained eyes.
