"Color tone”
hushes annoying sounds and al
lows notes of voice and instrument
to reach you in full natural tones
IT enables you to alter to your
taste the quality or timbre of
speech or music from high, thin
pitch to low, deep, round tones.
This receiver, unlike others, is
not at the mercy of the loud
speaker. The “Colortone” also
helps to subdue to a great degree,
the scratching, hissing, whistling
sounds that are usually the bane
of radio reception.
The "S’s” and the “HV* are plainly
audible; naturalness of sound replaces
the artificiality which has heretofore in
terfered with radio enjoyment.
Do not hum a demonstration of this great
Grebe innovation.

HENDERSON PLEASED
WITH WESTWARD
SEWARD SCHOOLS
DEPARTS FOR INTERIOR ON A
GENERAL TOUR OF INSPEC
TION
“I have been in Seward so often litis
| summer than I feel almost as if I am
! eligible to become a resident of your
fine little city,” remarked Lester D.
Henderson, Commissioner of Educa
| tion, Territory of Alaska, during his
talk before 'the Seward Chamber of
Commerce, Tuesday.
Mr. Henderson has just returned
from a trip of inspection to various
Territorial schools to the Westward
; and in commenting on his journey re*
| marked he had exceptional good luck,
! for at each port visited the steamer
arrived during the day and when the
schools were in session. This worked
out just right for him as ordinarily it
is difficult to select a Westward trip
which, under ordinary circumstances,
would give him a brief period at all
points he desired to call at, unless he
took a month or so in making the
rounds.
He was at Seldovia for three hours,
Uzinkie for two hours; all one after
noon at Kodiak, so took a run across
to Wood Island; and also to Port
Holbron. As all might know Port
is where the whaling station is lo
cated. Seventeen head of cattle was
delivered to Jhek McCord at this port

NEW SCHOOL DESKS
Sixteen new seats were received
, by the Seward High School, last
Saturday, enabling the school to seat
I the increased enrollment for the
term of 1927-2S. The manuel train
jing students were the chief assem
blers and the way they turned the
finished product out resembled a
Ford plant to everything detail ex
cept the Fords.
C. H. Keil, Moose Pass mining op
erator, arrived in town last evening
on a brief business trip.
for trans-shipment to Sitalickdit (it’s a
difficult name to spell off-hand) where
McCord has the nucleus of a cattle
ranch well under way.
! Mr Henderson dwelled but briefly
1 on facts concerning the whaling sta
tion with the exception of saying he
was fortunate (?) in arriving at a
time they were performing an opera
tion on a large blue whale. It was of
great interest, he said, but an hour
was all he could stand, or rather, had
time for.
Speaking of the local school situa
tion, Mr. Henderson remarked the
season has started off very nicely;
he is glad to note the increased enroll
ment but is particularly impressed
by the action of the City Council in
providing additional quarters and ar
ranging them so well. “Realy,” he con
tinued, “it is not a bad school build
ing at all, with these new improve
ments, for in the past, as I have told
you before I never was so much en- ^
thused over the high school building. I •
“I have been asked many times by i
parents and children in your city re- 2
garding this being an accredited j
high school. We are operating in the !
Territory under rules enforced by the _
University of Washington, which is
the closest, and they require four
full time teachers in the high schools.
Seward has but three. In addition
they require all high schools be equip
ped with science laboratory and a
larger general reference library than ■
you have, though your library is not
bad and perhaps is sufficient for the
present needs of the students.
“I am also glad to hear that you I
are thinking of getting out a bond is- j
sue and erecting a new school build- j
ing soon. No doubt if a new building
was built and the U. of Wn. inspector
visited here, he would make it an ac
credited school. As conclusive evi
dence what a new school will do let
me point out it would mean first of
all a considerable increase in enroll
ment. This is perhaps best illustrated
by the new school at Petersburg.
Formerly all the children of high
school age went Outside; now they
are all remaining. To Seward in par
ticular it means more than the aver
age for here is a more of a center of
population and activities. You have a
large field from which to draw from.
Strange as it may seem the West
ward developement will help, not only
the local school situation, but every
thing in a business way.
“Our new school in the Mission dis
trict is coming along splendidly and I
am well pleased with the progress the
contractors are making.
“The Seward schools have a fine
faculty and the ‘esprit de corps’ of the
pupils and students is excellent.”
Mr. Henderson left Seward today
for the Interior returning South in a
couple of weeks enroute to his Ju
neau office.
