It doesn't take motorists, long to realize
how great the differences are in various

demand Staebler Gasoline. Jt's far superior,, they know, and—it costs them no

incentive to bring the most bl'ase persons into the theatre seats. The pictorial story tliat Lieut. Coin*. Byrd

The world in general has accepted as
fact that Byrd and Bennett hew over
the North Pale. Byrd himself turned
the eye of the icamera on the region
as he skimmed above the lee and
snow: and it was Byrd who amade pictures of the journey to and from the
Pole from his Spitzbergen base.

their lack of decency a few nights

; when these rowdy lunatics came into

ed the tourists 'by n-rfsy brawling and
obscene language .unfit to be Spoken
or printed. As it was ih the night, no
officer could be found, and the vi-Itors
declared tliis was the worst place
they had ever been. Evidence points
