her type ever built. It is powered with two six-cylinder 400-horsepowel Diesel engines which have direct connection with two 23O-volt genera tors. These generators drive two main propulsion motors of 300 horse power each. The vessel has two 115- volt exciters for the lighting plant and auxiliary machinery. The main gen orators can only be used for driving the main propulsion motors and in pumping out the vessels tanks. The ship has pilot house control.
 One feature of the new vessel is the disappearing anchors, which, on being taken from the water are drawn into pockets located in the bow of the ship, making it impossible for the flukes of the anchor to catch on piers or other projections when being at a dock or other vessel.
 The Standard Service is 21S.6 feet over all; depth 16.6; moulded beam of 40 feet; gross tonnage 1,271 and a net tonnage of 765 tons. The vessel has four main cargo tanks with to- tai capacity of 10,51O barrels. Her bunker capacity is 590 barrels.
 The company has already built three small storage tanks at Sitka and, it is expected, will within a short time commence construction work on tanks in Seward. E. J. TimmOns, representative of the company, who a short time ago visited Seward, vii. prpobably return in the near future to supervise their erection.

a sport Sunday to show that such use
of its hours will make as great a con
tribution to the best living as has the
day known throughout the world as
the American Sabbath. Jesus placed
worship at its very heart as has the
greatest Of our Americans-men like
Washington Lincoln, Roosevelt and
others. But He insisted that it must
be a day of ministry to the les inter
ests Of men so that the release of this
woman from pain was a churchly
function and accorded with the spirit
Of the day. That San Francisco
church whose sewing machines whirr-
ed busily all day on the Sunday fol
lowing the great fire was doing
Christly service. The church that dis
missed its congregation to assist in
putting out a fire was doing the same
thing. 1t must be made a day of min
istry to the best things Of life. That
was the thing Jesus was trying to do,
for it as He faced this woman and her
need but faced as sharply the far
greater need of all the world. She
gave by her presence the chance for
Him to do it.
There is a differing problem raised
in these last days of industrialism
with its interrelated life so that ships
sail, trains run, blast furnaces flame,
drugs are dispensed and many other
activities go on from week to week.
What shall be done with Sunday .?
Reduce the necessary things as much
as is possible-that is one of the
Christians tasks. The other side is
the providing a day of rest so that the
seven days work week is completely
done away. For both of these things
the church must be as ready as its
Lord to challenege any force that OPP
poses the injection of the spirit of the
day into the life of the needy world.

have seen the woman If she had stayed
away that day and He would fail to
meet many a soul in need these days
if that person is not in church. Here
is the tragedy Of empty pews. Here
IS the challenge Of our loyalty to His
desire. Perhaps some friend stopped
on her way to the synagogue and her
word to the woman was the sufficient
incentive to overcome the effect Of
pain. But that word spoken today is
vital and in the days Of multiplied
appeals upon time and energy is far
more important than then. Christ
keeps vigil at the church; it is our
task to see that the needy are present
also. It was high tribute tho intended
as the opposite when a critic said:
"You can find every sinner in Calcut-
ia in Thoburn's church" When it be-
comes the place of'respectability only
then will it cease to be Christ's.
WHAT WOULD IT HAVE MEANT
TO THE MEMBERS?
That synagogue wasn't a church,
but a cemetery. Some one in report
ing a funeral in a Piedmont church
said: 1T is awfully hard to get the
body up the stairs into the auditori-
um." But you see" was the reply,
that church wasn't built for dead
ones" Nor has any church ever been,
but it is not hard to die in them and
not from over-eXertion, either. That
synagogue has become an institution
and its officials pillars, fixed, rigid, IN
yielding. It's worship was as inspir-
ing as a windmill and as mechanical.
Yet Jesus attended it. The refuser Of
its worship today would de well to
study the habit of Christ with a
church that crucifed Him. He worship
ped with men who staged Calvary
three days before, knowing their bit
terness and their purpose fully. So
much it meant to Him for as Paul
puts it: 'He loved the church" That
which He loves can not be regarded
lightly by any man. Suppose the
woman had felt the deafness of it
and had stayed away? Christ could
not have used her cure as a means of
rousing the church's life. There was
anger against His profaning of the
place so that they were not utterly
hopeless. They We're shamed by His
speech which is also to their credit.
But they refused their hour of OPP
portunity brought that day by a wo-
mans fidelity and need. Like the
cavern fish, their eyes had been too
long accustomed to dimness to recog-
nize the glory that filled the place
with a radiance as glorious as the
Shekinah Of older days. And many
a faithful soul now as nameless as
this woman is the real hope of the
church of which she is a part
WHAT WOULD IT HAVE MEANT
TO THE DAY?
That woman's presence meant an
other chance to free the Sabbath from
the letters that had been forged about
it. 1t had been the earliest iegisla-
ton in the world in the protection of
the hours Of work assuring both slave
and alien one day of rest in seven.
And the worker Of any sort who la
bors to break down the Saob2th rest
day is destroying the foundation upon
which all his protection has been
based. And it is for the advocate Of
