St. Louis, the route bisecting the state of Illinois. We concluded that without doubt the worst state in the Union was Illinois. possessing abso- lutely nothing to make habitation therein bearable. The heaps of refuse around coal mines did not tm- press us favorabIy at all. while the square miles of corn stalks left us cold.
 What the chief said about the South was mild in comparison with our comments about Illinois. What was our surprise in later years to read all about Illinois as the greatest single empire in the %s constituting our states. The state, we read-with statistics gaiore-possessed about every resource that man could wish. From that time on we have quit trusting to superficial examination of sections of the country from rail road coach windows.
 Of course, we hope what the chief said about the South is true. But when We see Atlanta running page ads about it's consistent gobbling up of new industries, note that North Carolina has built more fine roads than nearly any other state-and incidentally note how 1t levies tribute on all of us by selling us our cigarettes-and note how Texas ex- ports nearly as much as New York. We grow . bit nervous.

 Then l explained how for years I had longed to play the piano. And before l knew it 1 was playing all the pieces liked best. Ballads, classical numbers, or jazz, all with equal ease.
 Today l am one of the biggest men in our industry. Scarcely a 1 meeting or banquet is held with out my being asked to speak. This amazing training has made me into self-confident. aggressive talker- an easy sationalist-almost overnight.
 The first night I mastered a fasci- hating fox-trot and soon l knew I was ready for the best of them. can scarcely believe it myself, but just few months ago didn't know word of French. Then I played through the first few bars i of Liszt's immortal "Liebestr raume. ' and my friends sat breathless. spell 1 bound. I was amazed to learn that I actually had natural gift for public speaking. and in ridiculous ly short time I was able to face l giant without a trace of stage fright.

May Stage Legion Play On Saturday ! Eue December 2I

Changing the anticipated date the showing of HThe Call of the Banshee'' in Seward from Friday December 20 to Saturday December i2l, is being seriously considered by the play committee of the Ameri- can Legion post here
 Though the change would mean ithe sacrificing of many transient spectators, it would permit good humber of Sewardites to enjoy the play, who otherwise could not do so lon account of businesses and other duties to be taken care of on Friday night when both the train and boat fare in, it was pointed out to mem bers of the Legion today.
 \ Considerable expense will be com lnected with the transporting of the entire cast of 15 actors and Direc- ttor Sharp from Anchorage to Sew- lard and return, and the financial Iincurrences will even be increased lby having the cast remain here an extra day in order to stage the play Saturday instead of Friday, but the Legion men in Seward desire to ac- lcommodate the home crowd first, Hi it is financially possible
 Y The committee after figuring ways and means has concluded that la full house and a fairly well sub- IscriDed program will insure thH ez- ltra funds needed. and concentrat- Cd endeavor will. he made to accom- lplish these. if it is learned that the least can make the two day trip

DEFEND CANAL
IN ATTACK BY
ENEMY FLEET
Opposing Armadas Ready
for Battle; Panama
BristIes With Guns.
BIZ United Press

By UnSted Press
BALBOA, Panama Canal Zone,
Jan. 25.-Through the dense jun
giles an army of nearly $4,000 men
was deployed today and great six
teen-inch guns, disappearing rifles,
wete manned around the Panama
canal.
A suffering radio signal on a
secret wave length was intercepted
and quickly decided. Its substance
said the Blue Atlantic fleet scouts
had made contact with the Black
Pacific feet advance lines.
Throttled exhaustS popped along
''the line" at the air field as a
great feet of army bombers waited
like air cavalry the word to charge
Big, powerful bombs were ready on
the machines.
One of the greatest war games
ever held in the Americas was well
under way today and ITS dread
naughts, airplane carriers, scout
cruisers, destroyers and submarines
.iockeyed for strategic victory in de-
tense and attack on the highly-in-
portant Panama canal.
The Blue feet had hurried from
the North Atlantic and through the
canal to meet the approaching
Black fleet which threatens the Pa
cific entrance Of the canal with
superior force of ninety-nine ships
to the Blues Seventy-f1ve. The
blues, however, have a superior air
force.
The scout cruiser Detroit, cleaving
the ocean at an average of nearly
thirty knots-faster than the fastest
ocean liner can travel, lent a dra-
matte link to the war game and
early naval annals when it made the
2,100 odd miles from Boston to the
canal in eighty-nine hours. The
Detroit'S feat showed the high stra-
tegic value of the canal in COMPARE
son with the famous rush of the
Oregon around the Horn during the
Spanish American war.
Somewhere below the horizon
squat men o war deployed for adj
vantage in outguessing the attack
plans of the Black fleet.
Far up in the skies, hardly visi-
ole, the air squadrons hung, the
roar of their motors inaudible above
the whining turbines on board the
ships below.
