FAMOUS STORY TO
BE SHOWN ON film
Ralph Connor'S "Sky Pilot at
South Church Tomorrow Evening

Ralph connor's famous book, THE
Sky Pilot" the perturbation OF which
is said to be even better than the
story form, will be shown on the
screen at the South Congregational
church tomorrow evening. The sery-
ice will begin promptly at 7:l5 o'clock.
"The Sky Pilot" tells the story of
young minister called by his faith,
but not by his ultimate congregation,
into the wilds of Canada to spread the
Gospel. Hard and discouraging is the
task ahead of the Pilot. For church,
he is forced to convert the saloon in
to gathering place. His pulpit is
whiskey barrel, and his flock the
skeptical and hard boiled ranchmen
Of the district
A cowboys idea OF SKY pilot"
Is far from fattering Early in the
pilots career his sermon on the
"Loaves and Fishes" is brought to n
rather impromptn end when one Of
the cowboys is unable to refrain his
open disguest at what he terms the
"impossibility of the yarn" This par
tlcular COWBOY Is surprised 10 iedrn
that the Sky Pilot" packs as much
kick in his right arm as he does in
his Gospel.
Incidents of absorbing human in
terest are artistically welded with big
dramatic moments that picture the
fury of cattle stampede with hun
dreds of animals dashing madly to-
wards the camera, while John Bow
ers, as the Sky Pilot prompted by
something higher than what the cow
boys call nerve" stands in the track
of the approaching steers and risks his
life to save that Of the little ranch
girl who has fallen from her horse.
