is again to the front
It will be remember that early
this year when the rush to the Chi
sana goU camp bad just started and
when vays and means were being
considered by the people of Skag
way auj White horse for turning a
portion at least of the trav
el vi i the Skag-way-\Vhitehorse
Kluauo route, the Dally Alaskan ad
vocated the sending of Dr. L. S.
Sugdeu of W'hitehorsa to the out
side with his motioa picture out
fit and his films of Alaska and
Southern Yukon, scenery and other
views, for the purpose of exhibit
ing them throughout Canada and th«
United a'-ates, and thereby educat
ing the people up to a prefer ap
preciation of the beauties and won
ders of this vast northern region
from a tourist viewpoint as well as
to dra-* attention to its vast re
sources and possibilities for future
development.
A 9i£&li fund was raised ill White
horse for Dr. sugdeu and later,
whea ie arrived bere on his way
outside, tha business men of Skag
way donated all that they felt they
were able to, to help him along in
the good work.
He went, to Seattle with his out
fit, but from the first be was up
against a hard proposition through
Jack of funds, the opposition of
those who were interested in the
iuterior routes to the westward and
extraordinary expenses upon whiel
he had not calculated when h<
left th® north.
Shor'.ly after reacking Seattle
practically dropped out of public
sight, although it was known by his
frienUa that he was still keeping up
the fight to the best of his ability
At tho present writing he is again
to the front and is backed by the
board of directors of the commercia
club of Seattle. We take the fol
lowing from the Commercial Club
Bulletin c-f Oct. 24th;
"Th^ board of directors of the
club pccomplished a piece of work iu
the line o.f publicity the past week
which will prove of untold benefit
to this city.
"Many members will remembei
the wonderful motion pictures of
Alaska, taken personally and shown
at the club by Dr. Leonard S. Sug
den. at i-he time of the visit to
this city of the Alaska railroad
commission. Dr. Sugden has spent
many years in tho North. He has
devoted his entire time and many
thousands of dollars to the gather
ing of moving pictures of the coun
try, its scenic beauty spots, its fa
mous trails and stampedes, its
vegetable gardens, its gold placers
and coal mines, its people both
white and native. The task has
been a gigantic one but those whc
witnessed the exhibition given bj
Dr Sugden are agreed that thp ef
lortj was well made.
"Dr. Sugden will in the near fu
ture bdgin a tour of exhibiting these
great films. In order to give Seat
tle that prominence which all Seat
tleite"? believe is her due iff this
connection, the board of directors
prevailed upon Dr. sugden to 'have
his stoiv of Alaska begin with Seat
tle. To that end the directors
will provide the doctor with films
of Seattle scenes, including a sec
tion of the city taken from the
Sorrento hotel, steamships leavins
for Alaska, a portion of the Potlatcl
parade in commemoration of the ar
rival of the first gold ship from the
North, portions of" Seattle bsule
vards, Seward monument, port com
mission facilities eompleted and un
der construction, the Lake Washing
ton canal and locks, etc. Dr
Sugden will personally accompanj
these pictures and will lecture while
the films are being run, telling the
■torv of Alaska, beginning at Seat
tle, to thousands throughout the
country. It is generally conceded
that these pictures exceed the fam
ed Rainey picture in interest.
"The board of directors did not
•top here. They authorized the
secretary to send an official in
vitation to President Wilson tc
I witness an exhibition of these films
and to hear the story of Alaska in
: his own home in Washington. That
this will afford the executive an
opportunity to acquaint himself with
the far-away country with which he
has recently had so much to do, in
; sures his acceptance of the proffer.
"To secure these Seattle scenes
in motion pictures will require some
expenditure but the board conclud
ed the money would be better spent
in this manner than in in any other
in the line of publicity. Compare
| this method with those in vogue
i heretofore by which the business
j men of the city have been urged to
I contribute large sums of which but
I a small portion has actually beeu
j used in advertising, most of such
sums being dissipated in salaries
and executive work.
"The Bulletin would again ask—
| what individual could or would take
|such a step for Seattle's good? It
requires the combined action of ac
tive and wide-awake men who think
and work for the city's good. If
the club shall have accomplished
I nothing more this year you would
I owe 'a your membership."

METKUSALEH lived nine hundred 2"d s:xty--ire
years and wrote all his letters as his fathers did.
Why shouldn't he? He hr.d plenty cf time. With
him it wasn't a ease of saving time but of Lulling time.
But we don't live so long nowadays a;.J i< f us have
{rotten over the Methusalch idea i:i the last t!;ir:y years. Vv'c
have found that the time saitd and the la Li.- save.! by tli. writing
machine is wonh saving by everyone who has writing la Jo.
Typewriting is tuv or three times faster than pen writing,:: is
easier and less fatiguing, it looks better, and it is the up-io-e/ate way to
write. Reasons a-plenty for buying a typewriter, don't you think?
The typewriter for which YOU and most people have
been waiting is the new
-Remington
JUNIOR
Typewriter
Think of it! Here is a first-class typewriter, a genuine Reming
ton, carrying the iron-clad Remington guarantee and embody
ing just the qualities you need.
The price of the Remington Junior is 550.00, cash with
order. How does it differ from the standard hundred-dollar
Remingtons? Only smaller, and lighter, with feuvr parts—just
the machine you need for the simpler uses, such as manuscript
and ietter writing.
9 For S-55.00 we will sell you a Remington Junior on terms
of S5.0Q down and 55.00 a month.
Better seize this opportunity and buy now. Cut out the
attached coupon and send it to us with S5.00 in cash, check^.
or money order, and we will send the machine.
