DOROTHY ALEXANDER

The Admiral Line Dorothy Alex ander will make ten trips in the southeastern Alaska excursion serv- ice this summer, according to an announcement of E. G. McMicken, Passenger Traffic Manager of the Company. which, together with twenty voyages of the Queen" and Admiral Rogers" will make a total of thirty excursion trips during the forthcoming season.
 The route of the vessel will be changed this season according to MT. McMicken's announcement, the new routing being from Ketchikan direct to Sitka, thence Skagway and returning via Juneau and Wrangell.
 The first trip of the Dorothy" will be a through cruise from Los Angeles via San Francisco and Se- attle, which is the first through service ever offered from California. It is expected that this will meet with considerable popular favor, particularly in Southern California.
 Several organized parties have been booked for subsequent trips, including the National Retail Gro- cers Association, Powers, Burling- ton, Alexander and other tour par ties, the University Commercial Club of Seattle, and the Elks of Sacramento, California.
 The Dorothy" will leave Los Angeles June 4th and Seattle on June Sth on her maiden voyage of the season and she will sail from Seattle every ten days thereafter until September 9th.
 With the foremost weather au- thorities predicting the hottest and driest summer in a century for the Pacific Coast this year, we antici- pate that many will turn to ocean trips for refuge from the heat and Alaska should naturally enjoy a full share of this traffic., MT. Mo- Micken said "In anticipation of this. and in order that we might render more attractive service to the resident Alaskans, we have spent considerable money overhaul ing our fleet and will make every conscientious effort to enable Alas ka to cash in on this opportunity"
