incredibly short time the preparations
were completed, Il strain was put upon
the tackle, and when night came the
massive false work had been pulled
back into line and the traveller was
once more swinging steel into place.
1T was 4 magnificent feat, yet not one
OF those concerned in it could feel con-
tident that the work had not been done
i'll vain, for the time WAS growing ter
ribly short, and. although the ice seem
ed solid, it was rottin., fast
After the southern half ut the span
had been completed The warmth in.
creased rapidly. Therefore The steel
crew lengthcnel its hours The men
worked from :. o'clock in The morning
| until II o'clock at might.
On the Eth. without warming of any
sort, Garfield glacier began moving for
ward. 1t had lain inactive even during
the m!Gwinter thaw which had started
its smaller brother, but that warm
spell had evidently had its effect upon
the giant, for now he shook off his
| lethargy and awoke lie stirred. grad
ually ut first and without sound, as if
bent upon surprising the interlopers;
then his speed increased. As the ga-
ciet advanced it thrust the nine foot
| blanket Of lake ice ahead OF it, and
this i'll turn crowded the river ice
down upon the bridge The movement
at the camp site on the first day was
only two inches, but that was sufti-
GENTLY serious.
The onset Of Garfield at this time
was. of course. unexpected. for no for
ward motion had ever been reported
| prior to the spring breakup The ac-
| ton of the ice heretofore had been
alarming, but now CONSERVATION
spread. \ panic swept the ranks Of
| the builders. for this was no short
lived phenomenon. This was the an
! nual march Of the glacier itself, which
promised to continue Indefinitely. A
tremendous cutting edge, nine feet in
| thickness, like the blade of carpen-
| ter's plane. was being driven against
| the bridge by an irresistible force.
Once again the endless thawing and
| choppily and ,ou=ing OF ice began, but
| the more rapidly the encroaching edge
was cut away the more swiftly did it
bear down. The huge mass began to
| rumble; it "calved,' it split. it letonat-
ed, and, having finally loosened itself
| from its bed, it acquired increased mo-
mentum. AS the men with chisels and
! steampointS became exhausted others
| h,,t hn ct,
gang clung to its perch above, aug
mentinS the din of riveters and the
! groaning of blocks and tackle. Among
| the ableboded men sleep now was out
of the question. for the ice gained in
spite Of every effort. 1t was too late
to remove the steel in the uncomplet-
ed span to place of safety, for that
would have required more time than
TO bridge the remaining gap.
| Piling began to buckle and bend be-
fore that Irresistible push The whole
nicely balanced mass of metal was in
danger of being unseated. Mellen
cursed the heavens in black fury;
Parker smiled through white lips;
O'Neil ground his teeth and spurred
his men on.
This feverish haste brought its pen
atty. On the evening of the 18th,
when the span was more than three
quarters finished a lower chord section
fouled as it was lifted, and two load
ing beams at the top of the traveller
snapped. .

BRADY PROTESTS
FILM CENSORSHIP
Rev. DR.. Cyrus Townsend Brady,
Noted Clergyman. Submits
Views to Congress.
SAYS FEDERAL BILL NOT SOUND

Declaring himself opposed to censor
ship. Rev. Cyrus Townsend Brady. one
OF the best known Protestant Episcopal
clergymen in America. has submitted TO
the house committee on education
paper stating his views on the subject.
DR.. Brady is the author OF sixty-five
looks. and is an authority on naval his
tory, so that his statement TO the COM
mittee is written from the standpoint of
an author and clergyman.
Praises Industry Generally.
Dr. Bradys statement embraces a
strong protest against the idea that the
motion picture industry generally has
been putting out immoral pictures TO the
public. He asserts that this is not true
because It is not good business to put
out bad pictures. He characterizes the
Hughes bill as measure OF discrimina-
ton. against the poor man for whom the
motion picture is declared to be The
Poor Mans Grand Opera" He predicts
that IL the federal government once em-
barks on the censorship OF motion pic
lures II will insert the thin point OF a
wedge which by and by will involve the
country in censorship Of everything
that attempts to appeal to humanity.
Church Back of Censorship.
DR.. Brady insists that the church is
back OF the demand for a censorship bill
but that the church Is mistaken in ask
ing the laws aid to enable It to do what
II has the power within itself to do.
Seriously" says DR.. Brady, II fee
that IL there is another thing that stands
more for personal liberty consistent witt
the rights Of man for which this country
stands, It Is disassociation OF church and
state. The church has never been abb,
thoroughly and completely to free itsel
from the idea that It needed and mus
