LOOKING AHEAD
Alaskan progress of the past forecasts the future greatness of
the Northland, and justifies all Alaskans in holding to their firm
faith in the Territory's possibilities and worth. By aiming high and
working together—actively and steadily—those having to dp with Al
askan progress can accomplish much. “Looking Ahead” to still great
er things, and planning and working accordingly, is the one way that
a high purpose can be realized.
The Alaska Railroad—a pioneer system—is gradually and pain
stakingly striding towards a great goal—the greater development of
Alaska; and that the future is bright and promising is attested by
the steady and consistent upward trend of past and present activi
ties. The Alaska Railroad is “Looking Ahead.”

GREAT THRILL SCENES IN
PARAMOUNT’S “CONTRABAND”
Flirting with death in the path of
several large automobile trucks,
weighted down with heavy cargoes
and travelling 35 miles an hour—a
speed at which it is difficult to con
trol the road behemoths—was the
pleasant pastime indulged in by Ray
mond McKee during the filming of
“Contraband,” Alan Crosland’s latest
Paramount production with Jack Cun
ningham adapted from the absorbing
novel by Clarence Budington Kelland.
In this scene, which was made at
night, McKee is shown gathering up
a bundle of order blanks that had
been blown from his hand and into
the road. While gathering them up
in an absent-minded way he was
nearly run dovcn by the trucks, the
skill of the hand-picked drivers alone
being responsible for the averting of
such a catastrophe.
One driver, particularly careless
regarding his own wrell-being, was
selected for the most hazardous task
which he accomplished perfectly. He
twisted the steering wheel first to one
side and then the other, avoided Mc
Kee by an eel’s whisker and finally
crashed into the bank at the side of
the road. He cheerfully announced
afterward that he was not even shak
en up.
This is only one of the many spec
tacular thrills in the picture which
britsles with melodramatic action re
volving around the efforts of a young
newspaper editress to break up a poli
tical and rum-running ring.
Besides McKee, the featured plac
ers include Lois Wilson, Noah Becrj
and Raymond Hatton. “Contraband”
will be the feature at the Liberty
theatre tonight and tomorrow.

“Let your Jewels decide!”
Jewels are the vogue in Paris—and in all
smart places where the word of Paris is law.
Rings, bracelets, necklaces, earrings, laval

are popular as never before. Where jewels
were one* selected to match one’s costume,
the costume is now selected to match one’s
jewels.—Here you’ll find gems of rare beauty
in all the more recent mountings—precious
and semi-precious, offering you the widest
ranf~i of color selection.
