Undo the heavy burdens: break every yoke: let the oppressed go free: banish sorrow and signing. and bestow on all mankind everlasting joy: through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
 To those outside the small chapel, grouped back under the leaflcss trees of the cathedral grounds or out be- Sond in the nearby streets and avcn- ucs, provision had been made to carry the service with amplifiers. To host of listeners far and wide the radio waves were set to carry the solemn words and blended chords of the choir.
 Few To Witness.
 And there was nothing more 10 this funeral of q very great man in history than that which even those highly placed might see or hear. His ac- tual entombment was reserved for the eyes of his own loved ones alone and the president and his cabinet and the geenrals and admirals. all the diplo- mats had no part in that. Their trb- utes ended with the benediction ana the family alone would see the last solemn moments when the casket in which lies the worn body of Woodrow Wilson was lifted down to its place in the vault to wait peacefully until men shall decide upon fitting work of carved stone to mark his resting place as that Of a servant Of the ma ton, faithful to the death.

all the seafaring folk, young and
old, ships. captains and cabin boys
forgetting their work to help young

rations for round-the-world trip in
a sail boat about five times his
length.
Tales of buccaneers and pirates
bold: of ocean rovers, caring not at
all for land, seeking eternally ad-
venture: yarns Of treasure hunters
and stories of spooks that infest land
and sea-these may have been the
lure that have led Frenchman, only
80 years old, to dedicate his life to
solitary water travel.
He had read them all. In fact, row
on row, they stand in the little cabin
OF his boat-the Firecrest. Joseph
Conrad. Jack London, Edgar Allen
Poe and all the other writers of such
strange life and adventure tales are
represented in the small library Alain
Gerbault carries always with him.
He has read them since he was a
child-and loved them. and read them
again. Perhaps they fired his imag-
ination and constitute a reason for
the lone sea wanderings he con-
templates.

aches to pull up anchor and start out
on a five-year tour of the world,

Sea rowing is nothing new for Alain.

One hundred and forty-five days it

waves, of the Atlantic Ocean for 1Ol
days and nights. His. sails were in
tatters; his bowsprit was broken OF
and his mast was cracked from the
wild sea storms he had encountered
wore IMAM tnlTQ OF year De-
fore, he had disappeared from his
haunts along the Riviera--no one
knew just why or where. He was
one of Frances tennis stars and they
missed him at the matches which
were then in progress. With the
passage OF time his safety was de-
SPARED of--until he was found of
Fort Totten.
Then--"Just whim" was how he
explained it. Il wanted to come, so
l came. Why should | have bothered
telling people?"
But France demanded that he re.
turh and receive his reward from the
government. He went--but not for
the reward He went to settle up
some business affairs with his brother,
SO he could continue his sea travels.
And as soon as the government had
given him a medal in recognition Of
his solitary trip across the ocean and
a number OF societies had done him
honor. he returned to prepare for the
rest of his journeys.
Will Go South Now.
With no engine in his boat, at the
mercy OF the winds, he will go down
the coast to Bermuda, through the
Panama Canal and off across the Pa
cific to the Marquesa Islands.

J. H. DAVIES FILES FOR
 SENATOR

MT. Davies, of Ketchikan, has filed for Se&ator. If the people were electing men to office because they are fine gentlemen, good character, and genial dispositions, MT. Davies would make a fine Senator. But the contrary is true. Men run on their records. MT. Davies is a part ner of John R. Beegle, for a long time the mouthpiece of the cannery- men and trapmen. He was also a member of the Territorial Fish Com mission under whose direction Chas. R. Garfield drew up a bill whose chief purpose it was to secure title to trap sites. He is called by John w. Troy, the Democratic Boss of the Republican Party, an Admin istration" man, meaning thereby that he would support Gov. Bone. He is supported by the cannery lawyers.

A. E.. GURR Of Wrangell

About all that we can say about MT. Gurr is that he is the personal choice of H. L. Faulkner, corporation lawyer, for the House of Representa- tives. He has been selected with the hope that he will beat w. D. Grant in the Wrangell district
 Voters should be informed about this man. Is he for bill like the Controller Bill, which designs to place all strictly territorial affairs in the Hands of Board of Control elected by the people? One illus tration will be enough. The Pioneers Home at Sitka is a strictly territor- ial institution, and yet the electors of Alaska neither directly nor indi- rectly have word to say as to how this institution should be run.
 Alaskans are good enough to pay the taxes that support this institution but they cannot be trusted to run it. This can only be done by a gentleman from Washington, D. C., or New Jer- sey.
 Fishermen, the backbone of this division, should know how he stands on the fish question.
 MT. Gurr has not been found duly prepared, worthy or well-qualified to be entrusted with high public duties. We should know great deal more about his ideas than we know now.
 The general impression is that he

LETTER FROM ANGOON


 Many people do not know where Angoon is or what it is. Is it an animal, fish, a bird, does it bark?
 It is the most progressive Native Village in southeastern Alaska situ- ated about two miles north of Killis- moo, on Admiralty Island. It is op- posite the entrance to Peril Straits. There are about two hundred souls in Angoon.
 This town has an excellent town hall with dimensions of about forty by sixty and built entirely by the Natives. In this hall are held the community meetings, lectures, dances and other things that concern the entire people.
 A Presbyterian Church was or ganized there last year by Dr. s. Hall Young assisted by Rev. David Waggoner. These men placed Sam uel G. Johnson and his wife in charge of the work. They had been in charge for several years without recognition from the Presbytery. Such faithfulness as they have ex- hibited is rare. Both parties are former students of the Sheldon Jack son Training School at Sitka.
 On December 223rd last, the lead CTS of the church made drive to raise money for a church and col lected during that day $735. They are trying to get money to buy the material for the building, the work will be contributed. Friends will make no mistake in sending money to them to help. Simply address it to MT. Samuel G. Johnson.
 The Sunday school is in charge of Eli Katinook (affectionately called "Kat" by lis friends, and "Kat' by his enemies-take your choice). In tNe Christmas entertainment, Kat had 38 kittens-or was it kiddies ?- on his program. Kat himself says, 'I had the best Christmas program that was ever given around here" More power to him.

H. R. SHEPHERD

MT. Sheperd is candidate for re- election, and runs on his record in the last legislature. This record, the Juneau Empire says, was most en; viable. Here it is:
 He got himself appointed on the transportation committee and there fought for the Steamship Companies, winding up by signing report dis paraging the work done by the At torney General by way of investi- gation of the rate situation.
 He was the champion of the can neries and trap interests and the fish reserves. He voted for the Grant Memorial under threat that he would be defeated for city councilman of Juneau if he did not.
 He voted against the resolution directing the Attorney General to institute legal proceedings to defend the people of the Territory against illegal exercise of autocratic power by the Bureau of Fisheries.
 He voted against the law requiring the big mines to pay an equitable tax on their net incomes.
 The record of this man is long one, and at every turn he was to be found voting with the Solid Third Division and Against the People.
 H. R. Sheperd is so situated that even aside from his disposition as shown by his record, he would have to support the Steamship Compan- ies, the big Copper mines, for the reason that his son-in-law is the general manager of the Guggenheim properties in Alaska.
 You can see the natural lineup, Steamship Companies, the big mines, the Canneries and the Trapmen, the Federal Officials.

Pine VALLEY IS
LURINC MANY
VALLEY PEOPLE
Summer Season Getting
Under Way AT

With the first hint of hot wealth
er the thoughts of Imperial Val.
ley residents are beginning to turn
to the mountains and to plans for
spending the vacation days.
Many persons have been making
trips to Pine Valley "the new re-
sort among the pinesD as it is term
! ed, which was opened last war as
an all-year-round pleasure play
ground by c. s. Judson. -
The resort, which is made up
primarily of cabin sites where those
who wish to enjoy the coolness of
the mountains may build their own
cabins, was opened too late last
season for most Imperial Valley
people, as many of these had al
ready made their summer plans.
This season there are also rental
cottages put up for the convenience
OF transients, and the place is be-
coming dotted with little rustic
homes of those who have fallen in
love with the place and who are
establishing permanent headquar-
ters there.
The spot is only about a two
hours ride from FL Centre over
the San Diego highway and its ac-
cessibility to the valley, combined
with its wonderful beauty, high al
titude, and conveniences which have
been installed by Judson, is intri-
guing the curiosity of even those
who have been accustomed to going
to other places. Quite a large Imper-
ial Valley colony will be formed at
the resort, largely on account of
the fact that it is close enough for
members of the family, who cannot
get away for u great length of
time, to run over for visits with
out much effort.
Among Imperial Valley people
who have stopped at Pine Valley
recently for meals at The Cabin
are Mr.. and Mrs. f. r. G.. Fenton,
George Whitlock, Mr.. and Mrs. C. j.
Ellis, Mr.. and Mrs. P. NJ. Baxter,
