the Ku-Klux Klan last night, when
he submitted his resignation as a
KlanSman to the exalted cyclops.
On the eve of an extensive in
vestigation of lawlessneSs in Ala
bama, in which he had implicated
numerous Klan members, Mccall
issued in his letter a bitter denun-
citation of the hooded order as op-
posing the regularly constituted au-
thorities of the State.
Mccall said he stood for the prin-
ciples which the Klan publicly ad-
vocated and he had seen no public
withdrawal on the part of the Klan
of belief in those principles, but
that he was convinced, through his

that the Klan had fallen into the
control of a "lawless leadership"

Seward daily gateway., 1927-06-11

With the arrival today on her maiden voyage of the Alaska Steamship companys paatlal liner Aleutlan an- other milestone set in the development of Alaska trans portaton and it's influence upon the City of Seward the western terminal of direct travel to the United States and the port of distribution for the great empire to the Westward.
 Aeuan upon the Alaska run the Alaska Steamship com pany occupy the position of pioneers in the field of sup planting the cruder of transportation of few years ago with service equal to if superior to many serving thcky populated and competitive centres.
 Keeping pace, although not so an elaborate scale is the Pacific Steamship companys Admiral fleet ot three rsclass steamships the Admiral Watson, Admiral FaTagut and Admiral Evans
 Something more than ordinary attaches to the his tory of this liner fleet in the quality of walking the bridges These men, of whom Captain Nord is the senior have practically bazed trail laong the haz arOus coast of the American North from Puget Sound to the Aeutian Islands, nav gating with these immense and costly ships waters that would challenge the courage of the bodest skipper and under conditions peculiar to no other section of America Yet these ships and go along this trail travelling in safety and luxury equal to in safety born of the keen knowledge of their calling And by this service they have banshed hitherto real dan gers and made travel safe to and from Alaska any portion of the world.
 Added to this is the auxiliary service plying difficult waters naugurated under the influence of Capt. O. A. Johansen with the staunch little steamer Starr which forms the connecting link between the pop ulous ceners of the Alaska Peninsula and Aleutans service which still demands the blazing of trails into al most uncharted waters minus of most of the ordinary safeguards to transportation Yet the Starr her schedules regularly and safely writing heroic chapters seafaring history
 Supplementing this Westward service is the little motorshp Discoverer plying between Seward Nuka Bay and Ilamna, and commanded by Capt. Heinie Berger
 Thus the interrogation point has been eliminated from Alaskan water transportation. The traveller no longer specuates upon his chances of reaching this that part of Alaska but is assured of regular and adequate service commensurate with the demands imposed upon it.
 The arrival of the Aeutan is like the coming of an expected friend marking epoch of progress for which all will be grateful and apprecative.

ASS. CO. OPERATES SEVENTEEN VESSELS
 IN ALASKAN WATERS
COMPANY CONSTANTLY lMPROV- ING SERVICE TO ALASKAN
 PORTS

Progress and betterment of service has been the watchwOrd of the AL aska Steamship Company since it commenced doing business one-third of a century ago with one small steamer of 333 tons gross register, which has grown and developed into the present fleet of r steamers of 56,263 tons gross register. During the past six years the progress of betterment has been speeded up and intensified.
 In 1923 the company purchased the new steamer Alaska and she was placed in the service on Alaska rout- es, then becoming the flagship of the fleet The following year anoth- CT and somewhat larger steamer was added to the fleet. This was the steamer Yukon, which sailed on her first voyage to Alaska on May F, 1924. She is 375 feet in length and 50 feet in breadth, and is also twin screw, double bottomed, oil burning steamer with superior class passen- ger accommodations.
 This year another new passenger steamer, the Aleutian, a sister ship Of the Yukon. is in service and in Seward today, on her maiden voyage. She is exactly the same size as the Yukon but her passenger accommo- dations are even superior to those of the other two ships and she has more refinements. She has 26 De Lux rooms-22 with private bath.
 During this period the passenger accommodations on the steamer AL ameda and Northwestern have been rebuilt and a number of De Lux rooms installed so that these five steamers operating on the South eastern Alaska route to Ketchikan, Juneau, Skagwav, and Sitka, and on the Southwestern Alaska route in- cluding the above named, Cordova, Valdez, and Seward, are stricly modern and up to date, with fine promenades, observation rooms smoking rooms, barber shops, lobbies, and with reading lamps in every birth, and hot and cold running water in every room.
 The s. s. Victoria, the old favor ite on the Nome route. has also been thoroughly overhauled and her pas senger accommodation entirely re- built and modernized. The company also operates freight route vessels, the Lackinaw and Cordova, with &C., commodations for about 90 first class passengers in rooms with bath and with hot and cold running water.
 In the fleet there are also five new modern cargo steamers of 51OO tons dead weight capacity, and several smaller vessels that are peculiarly adapted to the needs of Alaska busi oocc

patchwork quilts figured decidedly in
interior decora tior1


| interior decoration.
Quaint Use of Quilt.
1t may seem strange to modern
| housewives to realize that patchwork
quilts were not infrequently part of
| the decoration of the living room in
these crude, early houses. Bedsteads
often stood in the living rooms and
quilts were used as spreads. Today
we do not have bed-steads, even hand
some four-posters, like many of them
in the old days. in our living rooms;
, nevertheless, we think notifications
are permissible
Are not day beds decidedly the
vogue Just now? No one thinks it
strange to find them in living rooms,
especially those in apartments. We
ornament our day beds with fine tap.
estry, linen or cretonne covers and
pile them with cushions, instead of
fashioning the decorative patchwork
quilts, formerly the style for the
larger and more conspicuous bed
steads.
Log Cabin Designs.
So when we consider the historic
background of patchwork quilts rather
than their thrifty beginning, 1t is no
wonder that the log cabin design ap.
peals. OF the three squares illustrated
today, two are quaint old ones. and
the third, while pictorial and carrying
with it the actual character of the
name, is more modern. 1t Is rather
on the order of the new applique
patchwork than the pieced-together
patterns. An extra quilt in the house
pattern would be monotonous and
irartistic because it is not conven-
tionalized sufficiently to stand innu-
merable repetitions without becoming
tiresome. 1t is admirably suited to
nursery use where the miniature
houses would be sure to appeal to the
imagination of little folk. When
using this design have it border a
plain quilt or be used as decorative
corners, rather than for whole cover.
1t would also make an attractive
cushion top for a childs room.
Red Chimney.
The only difference between the two
old-fashioned log cabin squares is the
arrangement of the light and dark
pieces about the center. By the way.
this small square should be red. Our
grandmothers{ called this the chimney
and built around it, which reminds us
that the chimney was literally the
center of the old farmhouse, and abou.
it the rooms were built so that each
might be kept warm in the Winter
time.
Variety in Effects.
It is important to decide upon which
kind of square you prefer before begin
ming a quilt, as the two styles Of
patches when sewed together make
quite different effects. For instance,
the blocks with two dark trianoleS in
a single patch (sewed together dark
next to dark and light next to light
make alternate blocks of dark and
light over the whole cover. Though
the same method of putting the square
together is used when making up the
quilt with but single triangle of
each tone in a patch, the result is a
cover with blocks of dark forming
diagonal lines across the quilt which
are alternated with diagonal lines of
light.
