Payne. During the war the white
population of the territory actually
decreased from 10000 In 1915, to So
600 at present. and the output Of
minerals and other Industries showed
a similar decrease. The rich mining.

No Selfish Exploitation.
Secretary Payne makes 1t plain,
however, that the of this
great wonderland Of the north will
not be permitted to be exploited by
selfish interests.
'Exploitation OF the resources of
the territory will not be turned over
to one interest or group of interests
he says. Improvement of shipping
and railroad facilities is undertaken
with the purpose OF admitting fresh
capital and opening the country Tor
settlement by American citizens. The
first step in this direction Is the low
ering of freight rates and passenger
fares and the improvement of trans
portation and mail service through
economies introduced by combination
Of the W existing steamship lines

to effect"
Concentration and coordination OF
federal control OF Alaska lands n

this, by the appointment OF an inter-

the secretary.
''Other plans include the cO-ordl-
nation Of federal road construction
and the development of a plan for a
comprehensive system Of roads n
trails to serve the entire territory.
and also the requesting OF an appro-
priation of at least n million dollars
for the Inauguration Of this system.
Investigation Of the feasibility OF
smelling Alaska copper ores on q
commercial basis within the territory
win be undertaken. OF great impor'
lance also is the immediate develop

The I,ure of Adventure

From "In Quest of Change and Ad-
 venture" by Judge Franklin Chase
 Hoyt, in Scribners.
 Into New York and out of New York every twenty-four hours there wend two curious processions moving in op- posite directions. sestN
 The incoming host includes children from all parts of the country seeking change and adventure. Some come to see the sights of the great city, some to find employment, some to avoid the dull routine and drudgery of unsym- pathetic homes. They travel by pas- senger trains, they beg rides in auto mobiles and trucks over hundreds of miles of road. they stow themselves away in freight cars and steamers. and sometimes they walk. There are little nomads who have already tramped half the worlds width, and there are boys who have left their sheltered homes for the first time because of some foolish resentment or fancied wrong. There are girls who wish to become actresses, and who believe that their mere arrival in New York will suffice to win them place on the stage or in the films. Some of the children come to find amusement and distraction, while others seriously seek new open ings and happy vacations. To all of them the end of the rainbow rests on
The Birmingham age-herald., 1920-10-17

! the streets of New York and there the pot of gold is to be found.
 The outgoing throng is, in it's way, every bit as queer and extraordinary. Some are prompted to leave the city by a sincere desire to try country life for a change. while others are im- pelled by a craving for adventure and a spirit of wanderlust which they them selves can scarcely fathom or explain. Big boys and little boys armed to the teeth with revolvers. bowe- knives, and even toy pistols, laden down with camp impedimenta of weird kind and fre- quently equipped with few odd som breros and brooches. strike boldly out for the boundless west, there to hunt buffalo, fight Indians, and mingle in friendship with cowboys. One girl is leaving home at the suggestion of an older friend to tour the country towns with cheap burlesque show; while another, all unbeknownst to her fam
 fly, is going off for little trip with
 /, gentleman friend" whom she met

Interesting silver sheet stories of do- mestic life told in many weeks.
 The story runs like this: Jimmy Ryder is full of dreams of conquering the world He marries Pidgie and together they go to the city to make their fortune. But fortune doesn't smile upon them, Jimmy loses faith in himself. they are very poor and Pidgie loses faith in Jimmy. Only PidgIes lcve remains but Jimmy is too busy thinking about his i'll luck to pay it much attention. Then he meets Claire Barry. who married her husband only because she couldn't have Jimmy Still loving him she persuades her husband to give Jimmy a job.

Swimming Bicycles

Though It resembles neither boat nor a bicycle, strange water craft designed by an ingenious pair of Illinois inventors. and illustrated in the Popular Mechanics Magazine, is really a combination of the two. and it's use as bathing-beach ad. junct ushers in a brand new sport. The buoyant part Of the machine consists of two air-tight metal tanks, one shaped like the bow of a boat, and the other like the stern. but with an open space between them for the operator. The bi- cycle frame, braced to these floats, hangs below in the water. A screw pro- peller at the rear is driven at high speed by the usual cranks. geared up through two sets of sprockets and chains. The handlebars are replaced by an automo- bile steering wheel, which, through ca- bles from the front forks, actuates a rudder in back. With one passenger on the deck of the bow portion, and an- other on the stern speed of six miles an hour may be attained. and with only one passenger, it is not difficult to pedal through lake or stream at the respectable rate of eight miles an hour.

FALL SEASONAL
 EDGEWOOD PARK Manager Hill Tells of Plans for Winter at Popular Amuse-
 ment Resort

As the leaves continue to fall and the sombre days of the year approach, it becomes more and more apparent that Edgewood park has given Birmingham something new. something different. This, at least, is the opinion of the hun dreds who have visited Mountain View Inn, which has opened fo- fall and winter season, giving the public the com bined features of an inn, a dance hall and a cabaret, all operated along an ex- elusive scale.
 When the directors of the Hiilco Amusement Enterprises decided on a fall and winter season at Mountain View Inn," said Hugh W. Hill, president of the company, they determined on this much: Birmingham would get something it had never had before, something to be proud of, and I think I can truth fully say those expectations have be- come realizations. To begin with, Edge wood park goes into distinct class, class by itself, in being the only amuse- ment park to operate outside the sum mer season, and has the only winter amusement resort in or around Bir- nip gham.
 On top of that, Mountain View Inn is the only other place one may go to on Sundays for amusement, with the ex- ception of the community sing as our Sunday programmes provide entertain ment of a high order, we think Bir- mingham ought to be proud of what we have done. None of the objectionable features found at some place of this type is at Mountain View, not a one, and as we are providing gayety for the dreary days, we are glad to know we have made ten strike

era The many disappointments inn pair his health, and the physicians de- clare that he will die unless his am bition to have his opera produced IS realized. For the sake of her hus- hand Panthea makes a compact with all elderly admirer who has great in fiuence in musical circles. Her sac rifice brings about the trium phant production of her husbands opera, but at the moment of his great success he discovers the manner in which Pan thea, induced her friend, the Baron, to exert his influence.
 This solution leads to one of the strongest climaxes ever seen on the screen, but in the end Panthea and her husband are reconciled.

Norma Taln1adge h Pantha
 Al the Alcazar Theatre

It is an acknowledged fact that one of the very best If not the best pho tcplays that Norma Talmadge ever ap- peared in, is Panthea, the powerful dramatic play which comes to the AL cazar theater tomorrow. The added feature will be the latest Sunshine comedy and the big popular pro- gramme of music will be rendered by Earl N, Wiley and George L. Ham rick, the Alcazar's premier organists
 The giving of one's life to save some other person has always been considered the supreme sacrifice. But there have been incidents of living sacrifices where death would have been a moro welcome solution. Such a sacrifice is only one of the many tense situations in 'Panthea"
 The story is that of young Rus sian pianist, who, suspected of Mi hilism. escapes to England, where she falls in love with a struggling com poser. They are married, and settle in Paris, where Pantheas husband tries in vain to get hearing for his op- low his wife's unfaithfulness to eff feet Pidgie's fortunes and gives the oeeds to Jimmy just the same. But that the incident causes between Jimmy and Pidgie is not overcome un- til years later.
 The working out of the situations is said to give Miss Joy and her as sociates some splendid opportunities for first class acting and as whole the production is reported to be more than enjoyable.
