D|sCOvERER HERE AFTER TOUGHEST
 TRIP 0F HISTORY
FERROUS SHOALS ALMOST CAUGHT VESSEL AT
 PORT DICK

After the worse trip he has ever made in these waters, and
 when friends here had begun 10 consider the advisability of sounding an alarm, Capt. Heinie Berger with the Motorship Dis cOverer, arrived in the Port of Seward early this morning from Anchorage.
 He had been, tied up two days at Port Dick, buffeted about by the waves and blinded by snow squalls. In the midst of blind ing storm he was compelled to
 drop anchor after circling for hours at lowest speed. When the weather cleared, they found themselves entirely surrounded by shoals. T surely had my rab- bits foot with me, that time, :" sald Glntaln Berger.
 Tie a.-4scoverrr left Anchorage Saturday afternoon, and trou- ble lay in wait for them at once. We bucked ice for 9 miles or from Anchorage to Point Poss- ession. After leaving seldovia we ran into all kinds of wealth. er, and all of it worse. It was the toughest voyage IT ever saw, | hear the ice is solid there now"
 Captain Berger stated he en- joyed an excellent season on the Inlet and was Kept busy through out the season.
 Besides the two members of the crew, aside rom the cap- tain, there was one passenger, Miss Gladys Leary of Anchor age, who came to visit in Sew- ard few days and who will re- turn by train.
 The DiscoVerer brought some mail from Seldovia and Portlock.
 Captain Berger spoke of hav- Ing been notified two weeks ago of the disappearance of Capt, Charles Emsweiler. He said that ne notified two boats carrying two trappers each who are on their way to Shuyak Island at the north end of Afognak. These men will search and if Emsweil- CT is there, will of course give him what assistance they may. He had also taken trappers to Barren Island last month and spoke to them again this trip but they had not heard or seen anything of the missing mari ner.
 If he is not on Barren or Shu- yak, there is one chance in a thousand of his being alive" said Berger. Any search now would seem to be almost help less, although if the authorities should so direct, I could possibly be of some service"
 The Discoverer will wait until l the SS Yukon arrives and will !! then depart with the mail for Fortlock, Seldovia and Kenai; probably Saturday. There is a of freight now on the local dock for these points. For the remainder of the winter and until spring, the Discoverer will operate from this port, special charters, etc., as in the past.

II History Cared in Stone.

MANY years ago. before the age Of cheap
books and the printing press, important
events were carved ON stone so that future gen.
erations would be able to read about them. The
histories Of ancient Egypt, Babylon, Assyria,
China, Mexico and Rome have been made
known to us largely through the pictures and
the messages that were carved out of various
sorts of stone by these people of long ago.
Sometimes these stones were in the form OF
rough blocks or slabs, at other times they were
part Of buildings and walls and the Romans
erected large arches beautifully carved with
pictures portraying important happenings.
The Romans were particularly skillful In this
business, for present-day Italy still abounnds
with monuments erected by them and which
show on their ancient faces the pictures Of
kings, warriors, statesmen and the things they
did. These long-ago people of importance
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1930-01-05

were determined, you see, that future genera-
tons should remember them and their work:
and they succeeded, for these old stone carvings
have lived longer than did their once powerful
empire One Of these stone histories, that Of
Trajan, Is pictured here today, and it Is one Of
the most complete In the old Roman capital.
This Column Of Trajan, as II Is called h Q
circular shaft Of marble about one hundred feet
In height and carved about It is q spiral hand
Of $50 pictures showing scenes from the battles
Of the Emperor whose name IL bears. 1t Is very
much as though stone ribbon had been wound
about the column. II this ribbon could be I'm.
rolled IL would extend about ESQ feet In length.
And every foot Of 1t has been finely carved BY
expert artists TO show just how important q
man this Trajan happened to be.
He was important, too. this ancient Roman,
for he was Emperor of Rome about eighteen
hundred years ago, ct time when his empire
extended over most Of what is now Europe and
over much Of Asia, too. He was not only an
emperor. but great soldier and It was mainly
due to his military skin that the empire reached
its greatest area during his reign.

The Criminal Code" is from Martin
Flavin's play, Broadway hit, which
won the Theater Guild trophy as the
best play of the year. 1t is essentially
a romance, for it is based upon the
overpowering love of a youthful con-
vict for the daughter of the warden.
Love transforms a desperate, nerve
shattered boy who stares in dumb
misery at his surroundings, with mind
that is almost blank. He dares to hope
he sees d glimrner of possible days to
come-and from that moment he is a
changed man.
Walter Huston in the leading role
of the prison warden heads brilliant
cast. Though Huston has been one of
the highlightS of the New York stage,
he made his debut in pictures only a
short time ago, yet in this time he has
established himself as a screen per-
sonality second to none.
Phillips Holmes, who plays the part
of a sensitive youth reacting to prison
conditions, runs Huston a close second
in a splendid performance, and Con-
stance Cummings, the feminine lead,
makes her first appearance in motion
pictures and is acclaimed distinct
find.
The Criminal Code" will be pre-
viewed at special midnight show New
Year eve. All seats will be reserved,
no advance in prices, and will open its
regular engagement Friday.

Those Three French Girls"
At the RialtO New Year Eve.


REGINALD DENNY and Fiji Dorsay
head a fine cast in Those Three
French Girls" Metro-G oldwyn Mayors
farce of life in Gay Paree, which will
open New Year eve at 1880 (this eve
nine) at the Rialto Theater.
The plot of this talkie farce, con-
cocted by Dale Van Every and Arthur
Freed, is said to contain a laugh in
every reel and howl in every line of
its dialogue, which was written by P.
G. Woodehouse, internationally known
humorist.
The action centers about the fun
loving nephew of a British earl, played
by Denny, who goes to Paris for a good
time and finds it in the company of two
American ex-doughboys and three
charming Inademoiselles. Complications
arise when the nephew brings the girls
to his uncle's home in the attempt to
interest his rich relative in backing a
modiste's shop. All would have gone
well had not the uncle fallen in love
with the very girl whom the nephew
had picked out for himself. But all the
difficulties are ironed out in the end
in rollicking manner.
Cliff Edwards and Edward Brophv are
reported "a scream" as the two dough-
boys: George Grossmith and Peter
Gawthorne are equally funny as the be-
fuddled earl and his cockney butler
respectively. The remaining girls of
the trio are Yola dAvril and Sandra
Ravel. 1t is Cosmopolitan production,
directed by Harry Beaumont, who has
Incorporated fashion show in it. The
picture boasts one song number, You're
Simply Delish," used as speciality by
Miss Dorsay.
