those listening in should know that fact. Thus his dissatisfaction when no mention was made to that ef- feet during the program.
 Assuming the correct attitude for broadcasting, MT. Giles at least so it was given to The Gateway report CT, began in thus wise: Station so and so, Anchorage broadcasting. You will now hear and which MT. -." At just about this time a member of the station, who had really been paying little attention to the an- nouncement, began to sit up and take notice and quietly, without MT. Gil- les being aware of the fact, switch ed the station off. MT. Giles con- tinued at great length, it is said, af- ter which the operator, quietly again, slipped the switch back to correct broadcasting position, giving the re- ceiving stations an opportunity to hear the program which followed MT. Gilless oration.

PERMANENT PLUS IN
 1.-THE WAY OF A GIRL"

The best known recipe for making a palatable motion picture is: Take a story with original twists, add capa- ble direction, good actors, unusual scenes and season with comedy, dra- ma and intelligence. Serve in seven reels
 That recipe has been followed by the Metro-Goldwyn Mayer Company in the production, ''The Way of a Girl," the picture tonight at the Liberty Theatre.
 Directed by Robert G. Vignola from the story by Katherine NeWlin Burt "The Way of a Girl' tells of an ire sponsible girl who wants always some thing new and finds too much of it. Incorporated in the story are many brilliant scenes, the best of which are an Artists Ball and a prize fight.
 Eleanor Boardman, Matt Moore. w. Russell and Mathew Betz play the leading roles in the production with Miss. Boardman as the thrill-seeking girl, Moore as her conservative suit or, Russell in an unusually heroic character role and Betz as the deep dyed villain ae

GILES DELIVERS MESSAGE OVER

HALF OF HIS MENT GOT OVER REGARDLESS
 OF SWITCHOUT

Not being satisfied with the an- nouncements being made recently at the Anchorage broadcasting station by member of the Ice Worm Ra- dio Club, Gus Giles, radio fan of the highest order, and of course, mem- Der of the club, asked that he be permitted to do This stuff" The re- quest was granted.
 At this point of the narrative it is necessary to call the attention of the reader that MT. Giles is Ter ritorial agent for the Brunswick photographs. Inasmuch as MT. Gil- les had supplied the station with the Brunswick machine, he thought it no more than right that the attention of

MOTOR EXPERT REMAIN ALASKA
 TWO MONTHS
TEST RUNS OF BIG MOTOR CAR FOR RAILROAD BE CON-
 QUOTED HERE
MAY ARRIVE HERE TOMORROW
Assembly Work Will Require Few Days-Shipped On the Deck
 Freighter Latouche.

Upon the arrival of the big Brill motor car in Seward on the freighter Latouche, which is due in port to- morrow from Seattle, the gasoline car will be run over to the local rail- road mechanical shops, for assem- ply by MT. Cleveland, expert from the Philadelphia concern from whom the car was purchased. and a num- Der of assistants, R. H. Hale, supt of motive power, Alaska Railroad, and John J. Longacre, head of the electrical department, have been in Seward two days awaiting the ar rival of the car.
 MT. Hale stated yesterday two gas engine men, w. P. (Wally) Mcdonald and Alonzo Cope, will arrive in town today from the Anchorage shops, to assist in the assembly work. It is estimated this work will occupy at least three or four days. Test runs will be made locally after which the run to Anchorage be made and, later to Fairbanks.
 A Gateway representative has been extended an invitation to be mem Der of the railroad party on the first test run for which thanks are here

by extended in the acknowledge ment MT. Cleveland said yesterday that he took an oath on a stack of bibles mile high, that never again would he permit a newspaper man to accompany him on another test run, due entirely to an incident that occurred in far off Peru where stalled last year. It was perfectly all right for the correspondent to accompany the railroad party on that fateful trip but when he used his persuasive powers and handed out line as to his skill as driver, MT. Cleveland fell like tons of bricks, and gave his consent. The reporter took his seat and slipped the speed device up to about 60 miles an hour. Speed was what he craved. Round ing turn suddenly, To and behold, there was Peruvian COW on the track. Maintaining the reputation of newspaper men, the reporter threw the bull Con the track) with such force that the car jumped the track and later the car being run back to the shops, it required two weeks to make the necessary repairs.
 You may ride and you may ob- serve, but that is all," Cleveland said in conclusion.
 Two weeks were required in tear ing down certain parts of the car in the Philadelphia shops prior to it's shipment to Alaska. Comparing that time and the Eastern workmen with members of his department, MT. Hale said he was confident his crew would have the car ready to go two days after it's arrival at this port. In oth- CT words, MT. Hale believes his me- chanical crews are much superior to those mployed in the East This Lead, naturally, into an argument with MT. Cleveland, who strongly de- tended his company's crews. The outcome of the argument ended ami cably, of course, but at that it was nice to hear men of their caliber standing Loyalty by their men.
 MT Cleveland said that owing to the fact Alaska is so far away from the Philadelphia headquarters of the Brill company, he intends to remain here for at least two months, or until such a time he is certain the crew who will be selected to oper- ate the car following the decision where the car will first be put into service, are thoroughly familiar with the cars operation. Generally the Brill company sends an expert along with each car with instructions to remain month. The fact the ma- jority of the cars are being placed thruout the United States sixplifies matters in case an expert is needd at a later date, for telegram would bring a special mechanician at once, but that this could not be done, with reference to Alaska, owing to the length of time needed to reach the Territory.

LEANERS

There is a class Of people who go through
life thinking their own thoughts plotting their
own boat-blazing their own train fighting
their own battles making their own DECISIONS
They neither seek nor ask for smooth roads to
travel, neither do they seek feathered beds to lie
upon-their vision and course is continually up
hill; briefly, they are captains Of their own lives
Theirs is the joy Of winning. Their is another
class marching through Life known as the Lean
ers"; they do nothing without the assistance OF
their fellow men they are inlitators in every re-
spect They are willing to think the same thots
as others. They travel lifes highway looking for
success through the efforts of Others They lean
lean, lean, and when faced with a serious prob
lem, they cry out in despair. How? Why? When?
and Where? They seek the answer not within
themselves but among their friends. They have
been leaning SO long they know not how to stand
alone Take an inventory of yourself and if you
are "leaner'' come out Of the crowd and stand
up like man upon your own resources. The
climb to the mountain top is difficult and some
times wearisome, but the Joy Of reaching the top
is eXhilarating. E. ROGER. JONES

MEMORIAL DAY


Sunday, May 80, is Memorial Day,
but Monday, May 81 has been set
aside throughout the nation to be
appropriately observed in reverence
and tribute to those who have passed
on.
Memorial Day in the broadcast sense
is a day of memory and reverence to
those brave souls who have lived and
by their living have contributed
something to make the world what
it is today The day is theirs, won
by meritorious lives and it's keeping
is entirely in the hands of the living
| The spirit which prompts the obser-
vance should be one of willingness
to discharge a sacred trust, trust
made sacred by deeds of generations
which belong largely to the past. To
those who would pilfer from the
dead the one day Of the three-hun-
dred sixty-five which is rightfully
theirs should come the thought that
only by proper observance of fitting
memorial can we, the living, in only
a small measure repay the debt which
is ours. Theirs are the pioneer souls
that have blazed their paths where
highways never ran. Theirs are the
brave souls who have fought battles
that our nation might survive and be
great Most of them now sleep in
eternal rest. Remember, they are
asking nothing of us in return for
their sacrifices. That is left to US
and in our hands entirely is the keep
ing Of what is a sacred trust.
We may ask ourselves just what
debt we owe to the generation which
preceded us. Immediately will come
the answers which may differ in
detail but all of which point out IN
mistakabIy debt large indeed
There are those who contributed to
the birth Of our nation on the Revo-
lutionary battlefelds, some of whom
died when this nation was born, and
those who, with wisdom and fore
sight, often requiring sacrifice, con
tributed to the growth Of what today
is the land Of the free
In a little cemetery at Hirams6urg,
near Caldwell, Ohio, sleeps what Is
said to be the last survivor Of the
Revolutionary War He, John Gray,
died March 29th, 1858, aged 104 years
months and 23 days. On his tomb
stone is inscribed "The Last OF Wash
ington's Companions"
Today we see melting before the
years the ranks Of both the Blue and
the Gray who in the troublesome
days Of '61'65 gave to their country,
best described by the words of our
immortal Lincoln, their last full
measure of devotion. Soon, in a
cemetery somewhere will sleep the
last survivor of that conflict.
Then in more numerous ranks We
may see those heroes of '98. who fol
lowed the flag through another tur-
moil We are thankful that many of
them are still with u.s.
Today, in Flanders Fields, eight
million souls are sleeping, having
yielded up to God and country their
all. Others have come through bat
tie Scared, some with their very
souls scared by the horrors of war.

MEMORIAL DAY

A halloWed day of memories is the 30th Of
May The few remaining 'bOys" OF 6l to 90,
whether they wore the blue or the gray, will let
their minds roam back to Shiloh, to Lookout
Mountain and the battle above the clouds, to the
Wilderness Gettysburg. A few months or
years and it will all be over for them, too as it
was for SO many Of their young comrades sixty
years and more ago, but on this day there is a
thrill Of something like youth again as they hear
the music of the bugle, the fife and the drum
The still outstanding veterans of the Spanish
American War will think of Ell Caney, of San
Juan Hill, of Santiago, Manila Bay and the jun
giles Of the Philippines. Their blood will stir
again as it did in 90 when they marched to the
tune Of "ThereI Be Hot Time in the Old Town
Tonight" The young men who answered the
call of Woodrow Wilson as the others answered
Abraham Lincoln and William Mckinley, have
memories of great events SO recently lived thru
that they seem but yesterday To them the
peaceful May day will bring thoughts of the
booming of guns in France and Belgium, and in|
fancy many will see rows of crosses in SUre31os|
and Romagne cemeteries, at Belleau Wood, AND
in scattered places where only a few lift thelr
pure white above the scarlet of the pOppies
It all sounds Warhke, but Whatever Othcl S
may think of us, we know that we are a peaceful.
people. We have never provoked war with ae2y
other nation But wars have come to us and Vre
have fought each one to q glorious finish, Not
only on the 30th of May but always and evernaC e
we honor those who did their part.
Some day within a few years the last Gra-
Army man and the last veteran who followed Ilo
to the end at AppomattoX will be laid to rest
honored graves. Some day far in the future q
veteran Of the World War will blow "taps" forI
the last survivor Of the Spanish-American fight.
One and ALL their memories will be cherished
and as the flowers bloom each Maytime they will
he culled by loving hands to place on their grave
They have gone or will go from the militan
ranks of earth to the peaceful armv Of the re-
deemed. Their deeds are an imperishablo part
Of our history and Of the history Of the world.

Their silent tents are spread,
