BUILDERS VS. DESTROYERS
In every community, in every state and in the nation
at large we have builders and we have destroyers. In be
tween we have a large class which does nothing actively
in either direction.
It would seem that the less active element would at
least lend its moral support to the builders, but unfor
tunately this is not always the case, particularly when the
destroyers by noisy clamor and misrepresentation seek
to discredit the constructive work the builders are try
ing to do.
The builder is always under fire. No matter how
much he may give of time, money and effort to the up
building of his community and state, or territory, the
destroyers are on his trail with a magnifying glass seek- j
ing to discover sinister and selfish motives. Being incap
able of constructive efforts themselves, they must be con
tent with carrying down.
But the builder does not stop building on that ac-1
count. The verv spirit which makes him a builder also
makes him indifferent to attacks which are as futile as
they arc unjust. He knows that in the long run he will win,
™<rardless of temporary misunderstanding and abuse,
because the knockers will finally hang themselves if giv
en sufficient rope.
Peace gestures must not be allowed to lag. Isn’t it
about time to call another naval limitations conference
and scrap a lot of blue-prints?

Gus Blucher of Reading, Pa., rigged up a machine
which he thought would run forever with the aid of ocean
tides. Giving it a try-out he suffered a crushed hand; later
it slipped into the sea, carrying him along, and he had to
be fished out. He has about decided to leave the perpetual
motion problem to someone else.
The KOHLER Automatic
produces 110-volt current ?
The Kohler Automatic Power and Light Plant produces
standard 110-volt electricity, and therefore allows you to
use the same standard electric light bulbs and appliances
used in cities. These appliances are available everywhere
and cost less than those of lower voltage.
Coupled with this advantage of the Kohler Automatic is
the feature of “no storage batteries. ” This does away with
the trouble and expense of maintaining a large bank or
glass-cell storage batteries. The only battery used with
the Kohler Automatic is a small, automobile-type, for
starting the engine.
Thus the Kohler Automatic gives you all the advantages
of city electricity with the same convenience—simply
turn any button on the circuit and you have electricity
for power or light. Send for illustrated booklet. Come in
and see the plant in operation.

uprooted trees floating in the
Straits. The Steamer Alaska, ar
riving at Juneau yesterday morn
ing, 12 hours late, experienced a
bad voyage when it ran into a
terrific storm in the Gulf of Alas- '
ka.

Island, where the lost ships may |
have been driven, plans to search ;
around the island for it may have
been impossible for the missing ;
crews to have reached Middleton ;
Island because of lack of a har
bor and heavy seas.
If the lost fishermen reached
there they would receive aid from
Mr. and Mrs. Joe Bach, fox far
mers.
