This Takes a
Power Plant
An electric iron is just
about all an ordinary
electric plant can handle
under the best condi
tions—
But it’s child’s play for the
1500-watt Kohler Automatic,
with double the capacity of
most plants and no storage
batteries to be ruined by over
loading.
If you want electricity without
hobbles—all the light you need
and all the power you’ll demand
sooner or later—you want the
Kohler Automatic.
Come in any time and see a
mighty fine piece of machinery
at work. Or telephone or write
us for a demonstration at your
home.

A new type of dog that won’t an
noy the neighbors, because it is bark
less, has been developed by an animal
breeder at Olympia, Wash., as a re
sult of experiments through inter
breeding with Siberian sledge dogs,
says Popular Mechanics Magazine.
The idea of a dog without a bark is
not new, as the Alaskan huskies have
always been in that class, owing to
their Wolf blood, but crossing the
wolf strain with gentler house pets is
unusual.

FIRST APPEARANCE
DIRECTOR HONEYMAN AND MEM.
BERS BAND HEARTILY AP.
PLAUDED BY PUBLIC
Appearing before ai large and highly
appreciative audience at the Liberty
theatre last night, the Seward band,
under the director of R. F. Honeyman,
made its debut as a well-balanced,
carefully trained musical organization !
which bids fair to develop into a
valuable adjunct to the arts of Seward.
The band has had but six weeks in
which to whip into shape, yet there
were recurrent moments when per
fect synchronization and deftly de
veloped tone quality bespoke great
promise as the musicians advance to
more difficult themes.
While the numbers selected were j
rudimentary to a degree, they offered
opportunity for rythmic expression
and tone shading which indicated the
elements of musical culture so essen
tial in such organizations.
And the band played with a confi
dence and earnestness which told the
audience that the organization had
selected its goal beyond the ordinary
and promised to emerge as the lead
ing musical aggregation of Alaska.
Each number was heartily accorded
well-earned applause, displaying the
appreciation of the public not only for
the good music but for the effort and
pains which had been taken to give
the city such a prideful organization
Capt. Ralph R. Guthrie, in speaking
of the concert said, “The perform
ance of the band under the unfavor
able conditions incident to having to
play indoors, was highly satisfactory. ;
A band is designed primarilly, as
everyone knows, for the great open
spaces. Nevertheless we will have
to give concerts under cover many
times during the coming summer if

The high-wave reception range of the Grebe
dial (B)—from 550 down to 240 meters—
equals the practical tuning range of the
usual receiver. The low-wave range of the
Grebe dial (A) provides additional recep
tion down to 150 meters.
You Don’t Need
Two Radio Receivers
OVER 100 existing stations,
with worth-while programs,
are beyond the reach of the average
receiver because it cannot tune
below 240 meters.
Thus, to get both high and low
wave stations requires two
receivers—unless you own a Syn
chrophase. Due to its Lovj~Wavc
Extension Circuits—exclusively
Grebe—it will receive all stations
from 550 down to 150 meters. One
dial covers this complete range*
Ask for a demonstration of thia
and the other recent Grebe de
velopments ; then compere.

Sewaru, Alaska
we maintain anything like a schedule,
so it was considered advisable to
get the members used to it and they
did surprisingly well.
I hope everyone sees now that we
can have a band in Seward. How
good it will be depends on the
amount of boosting they get from
the side-lines. Nobody can play to a
“dead” audience or while feeling
that they are being looked over for
faults. The audience at the theatre
last night was alive and responsive
and as a result the musicians a num
ber of whom did not know a note
six weeks ago did their best. If
Private Honeyman can go to any
