Bishop Bratton, Noted Educator
To Open Episcopal Convention

Rt. Rev. Theodore Du Bose Brat
ton, D. D., IL. D., third Bishop of
Mississippi. has been designated by
the Presiding Bishop Of the Epis-
copal Church to preach the sermon
at the opening service Of the Forty
eighth Triennial General Conven-
tion of the Church at New Orleans,
October 7th next. The honor of
preaching this sermon is one highly
priced in Church circles, inasmuch
as he upon whom it falls has the
sntire Church in the United States
as his congregation for that par
;icular occasion. In large measure
n fact he talks to the whole world;
Tor the Episcopal Convention, meet
ing once every three years, is a
noteworthy religious gathering and
the sermon which marks its OPEN
ing is religious message of world
vide Importance.
For the first time in the history
If these Episcopal Triennials, the
opening service for this year will
be conducted in the open air. Be-
cause of the mildness of the Louisi-
ana climate, Bishop Bratton's pull
pit will be under the spreading oaks
of Audubon Park in New Orleans.
Preceding the delivery Of the SER
mon there will be an imposing pro-
cession of the bishops of the Church
and other clergy and laity from
every part of the world where the
Episcopal Church is engaged in
spiritual effort. Among the bish-
ops in attendance will be missionary
Bishops from China, Japan, the
Philippines, Alaska, Africa, South
America and the West Indies, and
included among these, the Rt. Rev.
Joseph S. Motoda, D. D., first nat
i've Bishop of the Episcopal Church
in Japan. There will be at least
100 bishops in the assembly, 546
clerical and lay delegates and 500
members of the Woman's Auxiliary.
Following the sermon the bishops
and delegates will repair to the two
Convention halls in the city Of New
Orleans, where their deliberations
will continue for the ensuing three
weeks.
Bishop Bratton, who will preach
the Convention sermon, is native
of South Carolina and one of its
most eloquent and distinguished
educators. After talking religious
orders he served in various parishes
in the South, including the rector
ship Of st. Mary's School, Raleigh,
N. c., which post he was occupying
in 1908 when he was elevated to
the Episcopate. His especial work
since that time has been in educa-

Beauties of Kenai Peninsula to Be Exhibited to

Seward will be headquarters, for at least six months this year, for Merl La Voy, representative of the Fox Film Corporation of New York City. However, he expects to remain in the Territory for one and one-half years, according to his statement to tha Sew ard Gateway prior to his departure for the Pribilof Islands, on board the cutter Haida which departed Satur- day afternoon. MT. La Voy's office will be in the Ellsworth Building, Room 6.
 Carries Much Equipment.
 MT. La Voy brought to Seward with him many trucks and boxes all containing moving picture paraphan- alia. He does not anticipate having to make trip to the States until his work in Alaska is fully completed No assistant is accompanying MT. La Voy but it is possible, he said, that he would employ someone in Seward to assist him at various times. Among his scads of equipment is material taken to and purchased in 40 odd countries during the last twenty years, countries where he has spent many months taking pictures of un usual merit. Prior to coming to Al aska on this trip he had just arrived in the United States from the South Sea Islands and Australia.
 The special assignment he is now on for the Fox Film people will be called an Epic on Alaska" This fea ture reel will form five to eight reels in length. In it he will endeavor tc reproduce Alaska as it is, and being an oldtimer himself, some 15 years ago, he is extra we'll suited for the task, having that knowledge of the Territory which it is impossible for { stranger to absorb in one or two summers Mention Alaska Outside and at once it is associated with ice bergs," MT.

THE AIR MAIL.

TSHE coming summer will see
great expansion in the air mail
service of the country. For many
months the transcontinental route
from New York to San Francisco
via Cheyenne, Wyo., and Salt Lake
City, has been regularly traversed,
without accident, without delay.
without any great expense, and
with infinite satisfaction to mail
patrons both east and west.
Information now comes that an
air mail service branching off from
the transcontinental route at Chi
cago, running to Kansas City, has
been approved, and with installa-
tation of that service, there is no
doubt but that, with Kansas City
working for southwestern connec-
ton, and Southern California work
ing for direct. connection with the
east, the Tri-State Airway will soon
be used for regular service between
the two oceans. To that end the
cities along the Tri-State Airway
should get busy at once and make
still greater Improvement of their
landing fields, for development of
air travel is progressing faster than
the average person realizes, and
the lead taken by Kingman, Will
liams, Winslow, Holbrook and CAL
lup in preparing for air mail serv-
ice should be maintained.

CONSTRUCTION OF
SAN CARLOS DAM
WILL START SOON

According to C. H. SouthwOrth,
engineer in charge of the Florence
office of the United States Indian
service, plans are being laid for
early work on the San Carlos Dam,
says the Florence Tribune.
The big item that will have con-
sideration of the surveyors is that
of locating the line of the railroad
to take it out of the basin that
will be inundated by the waters Of
the San Carlos lake.
While the bill authorizing the
construction of the San Carlos
dam provides that work shall not
be started until the lands in white
ownership shall have been signed
up in the project, preliminary work
will not be held up on that account.

What Would You Do?

During the airway celebration
Miss Nina McCamant was among
those who took a stunt ride After
looping the loop and turning sew
era1 tailspins, her pilot reached
over her shoulder and whispered in
her ear, 1--WE are now up 5000 feet.
Give me a kiss or get out and
walk"
WELL" Miss McCamant said
when asked what she did, what
would you do?"
When aircraft finally develops to
it's finished stage, it probably will
be considered fitting and proper for
all young ladies to carry para
chutes when taking unchaperoned
airplane rides.
