SCOTTY ALLEN'S
That William Duncan, star, in
"Wolves of the North," Univer
sal penvtratingly Interesting
chapter play, depicting strenuous
life in the frozen Canadian wilder
ness .appearing at the Blight thea
ter today is a stickler for details
accounts for the fact that the
swiftest dog team in the world
plays an important part in the
cast. "Scotty" Allen's team, win
ner of several Alaskan sweep
stakes matched against other fast
dog teams on location, easily won
the speed and endurance contests.
Seven dog teams were used in
the production, which consumed
fourteen months in tho making,
and all the sleds, harnesses, light
and heavy toboggans were the
real equipment formerly in dally
practical use. Wben William
Duncan and Edith Johnson were
learning to drive dog teams, the
services of "Scotty' Allen were se
cured and soon "Baldy Jr.,"
'Whltny," "El Graney," "The
Ulackboy," noted registered mtila
mutes, became as obedient to the
stars as they formerly were to
"Scotty," exclusively. Other teams
were made up from the kennels of
Mrs. E. T. Darling of Berkeley and
Seattle.
There Is a movement afoot to
transport the Smokey river sweep
stakes winners east, during the
coldest part of the coming winter,
and exhibit them In cities where
"Wolves of the North" Is running.

I LI
SAYS OFFICIAL
M. B. Rcilly, district manager
of the Pacific Northwest Brick
.Manufacturers' association, has
dent a letter to the state board of
control flaying the board for the
attitude It has taken, and state
ments made public relative to the
use of brick in the construction of
public buildings.
The board took the position
that concrete rather than brick
would have to be used in the con
struction of a new dormitory ut
the state institution for feeble
minded for the reason that the
high wages demanded by bricklay
ers, the demand for a Saturday
half-holiday by the workmen and
the limit placed on the number of
bricks laid in a day made It pro
hibtlive to use brick, even though
the brick could bo furnished by
the state prison. The board stated
that bricklayers demanded (10 to
$12 a day and $8 a day for help
ers. "I wish to state emphatically,
as a representative of the brick In
dustry, that these statements,
whether they are the belief of
your state board of control or not,
they are absolutely false," says
Mr. Reilly's letter.
"In the first place, a bricklayer
works a full eight-hour day, the
same as any Individual. Wher
ever you get the Idea that his
hours are any shorter than tbls,
you are being sadly misinformed.
It is almost inconceivable to me.
to understand how you can believe
that a limit be placed on tho
amount of brick laid in a day's
time. If you gave it even a sec
ond's thought, you should see how
absolutely absurd It is to think
for a minute that It could be true. '
It is Just as logical to believe that ;
a limit Is placed on your own pro
duction. Why is it that the brick
layers and the brick industry are
always held up as examples i
'robbers' because statements arc
made that are not true? The
bricklayer's wage 1b a Just one, for
the work he performs, and he does
his work well, without condemn
ing or criticising others whom
he is helping to support by paying
his taxes like the rest of us.
"In justice to the brick indus
try of the state, the mis
statements you have been led to
believe as true should be retract
ed, and a thorough investigation
of facts should be made in the fu
ture before such erroneous opin
ions are formed, and publicity giv
on to them."

BRITAIN LIKELY
London, July 30 (AP) The
chances for averting the threaten
ed British coal strike seems de
creased today. Negotiations be
tween coal mine owners and work
ers, meeting separately with Prime
Minister Stanley Baldwin, wore re
sumed this morning In a gloomy
atmosphere. Leaders of both sides
after meeting the premier, spoke
pessimistically of the prospect.
The hope for a settlement is
ftfrther off than It has ever been
before," A. J. Cook, secretary of
the miners' federation, said.
W. A. Lee, secretary of the min
ing association of Great Britain,
representing the owners, said there
was not "a ghost of a chance" that
the owners would withdraw their
demands for two weeks to permit
a continuation of negotiations with
the workers for that period.
The "demands" refer to the own
ers Insistence upon a new working
agreement involving longer hourB
and lower wages to supplant the
present agreement, which expires
tomorrow. The miners havo re
fused to accept and have ordered
a strike effective at the expiration
of tho present agreement.
It is man's weakness which
makes him sociable. It is our com
mon miseries which draw our
hearts to humanity.

Your Motor's
Mile Power
Depends on
Economical Motor Oil
And here's a paradox: The
best oil for your motor is by
no means the highest-priced.
Nor is its economy confined
to its cost. It saves most in
motor up'keep.
You've paid a high price
for motor oil thinking thus
to get quality-insurance.
With most things, this
would be true. But not so
with motor oils.
Aristo Motor Oil, for
example, is one of the first
quality. It is produced
In California, by refining
methods of the highest
order and with the most
modern facilities.
It sells for almost half
the price of eastern oils.
And for the very simple
reason that it is produced -in
volume, and carries no
heavy freight costs from
the east.
Aristo is a rare lubri
cant. It combats the for
mation of carbon. And
this is its greatest saving.
You can pay twice as
much and not get as good
motor oil as Aristo. Sold
at Union Oil service sta
tions and independent
dealers of the first class
everywhere.
