City Engineer J. D. Ross of Se- attle recently filed written report in which he advocated the pur- chasing of all holdings of Puget Sound Power & Light holdings in the city. He urged that the com peting power company be taken over by condemnation proceed ings in the courts as a means of cutting out expensive duplication of expenditures and further that the light rate could be cut if the program were followed.
 Tacoma costs of distribution is lower than Seattle's as Tacoma has control of and monopoly on distribution.

Westminster Glee Singers
 Enjoyed By Large Audience

An atmosphere of Old England prevailed last Saturday evening at the MacGregor Theatre when the internationally known West minister Glee Singers gave their concert.
 One could but close their eyes during the rendition of the va riGuS numbers an dimagine oneself strolling thru the narrow reeos often trod by famous En- ish characters such as Charles Dickens, and in such places as the "Old Curiosity Shop; or seated in one of England's finest cathedrals, listening to angelic chanting of the hoir, or listen ing to the chimes from famous cathedral town; and, then again, one was carried to the heather covered hills of Scotland and from there to the Emerald Isles, ;Stening to the folklore songs vhich touches every human 'eart. Tn ones dreaming, you re brought back to our own
 aerica by the stirring tunes of
 lerican hymns. So realistic and atmospheric were all the se- lections by these Singers.
 It is truly a God-given gift when a performer or performers can give to listeners, the moods of joy or sorrow as found in songs or other musical selections. This the Westminster Glee Sing CTS did from the individual solo, ist to the entire ensemble. One could instantly feel the solemn ity and dignity oi the Ave Marie written in the 18th century to ne rollicking, carefree, jollity of the Sailor Chantey songs.
 The program was distinctive -4l that it was a diversified one. There were selections to the lik- 1g of every individual present. It 'ould be difficult to say which the numbers could be consid-

cred as a choice one. Bells o1
 St. Michael Tower was excellent 1 Iy rendered with the clear, sweet soprano voices of the boys de- picting the lighter bells and as a balance, the deep bass voices sounding the heavier bells.
 Solos were rendered by James Draper, Baritone, of the Royal College of Music, who sang "In- victus" with the Song of the Flea as encore. James Barber, Bass of the Royal College of Music, delightfully."- sang Rolling Down to Rio" Donald Reid, tenor of Westminster Abbey, sang Rose bud" by Drummond; Charles O'Connor, Irish Tenor, sang Shubert's "Who is Sylvia" which is always an appealing number. James Davis of St. Paul Cathed- ral, by request, sang Scottish clan song of the MacGregor Clan. All of these solos met with much applause and each sing CT was compelled to give an en- core.
 One of the outstanding selec- tions of the concert was the ren dition of Cradle Song" written by Shubert and sung by Harry Fearn, boy soprano. Harry's voice is noted for it's sweetness and clarity of tone and his up- per tones were void of any throatiness. It is believed that as time goes on this little chap will hold an enviable place in the musical world.
 Albert Greene, famous London Baritone-commedian made an instant hit in the rendition of the Sailor Chantey songs as we'll as the "Green-eyed Monster" which was sung with the boys. MT. Greene, after his service with the British Army in the World War, returned to London

A Word To The Wise

Traffic on the streets are be-
 coming so acute these days that traffic regulations are beconl- ing imperative. Said one buSi- ness man this week: T 2 <pc any day to see men packing the dead fOrn4 of a little child from ioff the street. The turns are becoming very dangerous.
 For which reason we publish the following safety message by the Automobile Club of Wash ington:
 Blow your horn to warn other drivers and pedestrians but re- member that lots of folks are deaf and can't hear your signal, so don't forget to use your brakes.
 Tn addition to deaf people, others who may not heed your warning are those who are men tally deficient and folks who are handicapped by physical defects. Lots of persons have worries on their minds and apparently don't hear the footing of horns. Remember, pedestrians still have a right to cross the street and if you are involved in an ac- cident, the sympathy of the jury may not be with you. Reckless ness and carelessness on the part of pedestrians does not help motorists who run them down. You're supposed to be careful all of the time"

Enforcement Jokes

Two federal prohibition agents were arrested during the past week charged with conveying a fleet of liquor trucks on Long Is- land. They were held in $3,OOO bail each. One of them arrest ed had been dismissed previously by Col. Mills but later reinstat- ed by Maurice Campbell, Mills successor.
 The charge has oft been made that the liquor problem exists because such men fill the ser vice, get their grafts-legitimate and otherWise-and help cover up when honest enforcement is attempted. One need not go out of Alaska to note this condition.

Alaska Radio
 Reception Poor

Says Col. Frank J. Griffin, of- hcer in charge of the Westmin- ster- -Washington-Alaska Military Gable and Telegraph System He stated that numerous power and light plants, leakages and ,other interferences caused such a condition in the North when he spoke before the Radio and Music Trades Association in Se- attle.
 It is probable that he did not tell of the interference caused by the system which he supervises and which is blessed by the radio fans most all the time.

 Came from the Westward that Akutan Island was in violent volcanic eruption, during which the top of a mountain was blown off.
 Now comes press report that it was nothing but the vaporings of a worried reporter who wished to fill space. Nothing to it at all. People on the island knew noth- ing of the eruption until word had been brought them from more distant points.

July 4th. Exercises
 We'll Attended

1 In spite of the intermittent showers which more or less threatened to dampen the en- thusiasm for the Fourth, the ex- ercises held at the MacGregor Theatre were very we'll attended, as was all of the other functions staged throughout the day.
 The Petersburg Band played several patriotic selections. They were assisted by the Community Chorus which sang "Columbia the Gem of the Ocean" and the famous Southern melody Dix ie." The Prologue to the Decla- ration of Independence was read by Frederick Nelson.
 The address of the day was given by the Rev. W. J. Makes tad of the Lutheran Church. He stressed the duty of every citi- zen to the flag and country.
 The Allegiance to the Flag was pledged by the local troop of Boy Scouts.
 The sports program followed and was carried through in spite of the showers. The baseball game was called off on account of rain and a wet field.

Kaiser William may again re- turn to the land which he ruled for many years.
 The kaisers enforced absence from Germany was a protest of the war and it's causes-guilt be- ing laid to the door of Germany and the kaiser. The present at titude of the Reihcstag is indica- tive of resentment of accept |ment of the instigation of the war.

For Fishermen Only

Comes a report from England that modern inventions are de- priving the fish of their privacy in the seas. An "echo sound er," which aids fishermen in listening-in for fish has been in vented and may revolutionize the methods of fishing.
 Which means, there will be a little hope for the seiner who has to compete with the trap. A different song may yet be sung by both seine and trap operat- ors.
