KING EXPRESSES
 HOPE IN ADDRESS
Looks Forward to Reunited
 Christendom Possibility

London, July 23 LP-Hopes for a reunited Christendom were express ed by King George in reply to an address from members of the Lam beth conference when he and Queen Mary received them in Buckingham palace today. The king shook hands with each visitor.
 T thank you most sincerely for your address and for the spirit of devotion and affection which ami mates it." said the king addressing his guests. T was especially touch ed by the assurance of your sym pathy with me in my recent illness and your pleasure at my recovery.
 Glad to Receive Them
 Tt is a deep satisfaction for me to receive and welcome this great assemblage of bishops of the Angli- can communion which includes not only bishops from my dominions but from the United States of America.
 T have observed with interest among the delegations which have visited Lambeth this has been an inn portant one from the Orthodox church view. Looking back upon the beginning of this series of Lam beth conferences. it must be a source of pride and thankfulness to reflect what testimony they bear to the growth and development of the Anglican communion. One hundred years ago it was little more than the church of a single kingdom. The present conference is a world wide gathering of united. though mostly self governing, churches which has attained the proportions of a general council.
 T remember ten years ago when I had the pleasure of receiving the sixth Lambeth conference that the question of the reunion of Christen- dom was foremost in your thoughts. You put before the world an ideal of unity and a plea for new en- deavor to heal rents in the fabric of the church.
 T am most happy to learn that this appeal has not been fruitless. Ii is my earnest hope and prayer that the work which your last conference began may prosper and that the de- Alterations of this present conference may result in some notable advance toward this most desirable end.
 Present Day Needs
 T learn from your address that ,I,a ation are summed up in the general head-the faith and witness of the church in this general The sub ject has been well chosen and with keen insight into the needs of the present day. The obvious and ma terial damage of war is not now so manifest as when you last met, the wounds are to some extent scared over. But mems minds and souls are still troubled by the wounds which the var inflicted and per pleXed through the shocks thereby dealt in their old beliefs and spirit ual royalties, at such a time the fathers of the church do well to take council together how best 10 bring home to the world of today, in ways most appropriate to the difficulties which beset it, the truths of the everlasting gospel God reigns and I pray that his blessing may rest upon your deliberations"

STREET GIRL" IS

If Street Girl" which opened last night at the Palace Theatre, had been a stage play, it probably would have been preceded into town by notices of an extended run on Broadway.
 Indeed, if the current stage had been presenting as entertaining stuff as that from which this all musical all-talking Radio Picture is made, it is doubtful if the mana gers of the legitimate houses would wear such worried looks.
 For Street Girl' is one of those shows that has an appeal for every theatre-goer; there is a captivat- ing plot. There is a generous share of fine music, and there is a wealth of personality in the tai ented cast headed by Betty Comp son.
 There is a generous share of con- edy in the picture, capably handled bv three veterans of the stage, Jo- seph CaWthorn, Jack Oakie and Neo Sparks. Guy Buccola, newcom- CT to the screen, adds to the har- mony of the tale with his perform ance on various musical instru- ments.

Morrison left for Telegraph Creek with dogteam February 27 Calbreath leaves four grown children, . daughter and three sons. His brother, known in the Fairbanks country as Cas- siar Jim" died at Nenana about two years ago.
 Son or Pioneer
 Frank Calbreath was the son Of John Calbreath, a California pio- neer who established the first trad ing post at Telegraph Creek, and operated the first pack train over the 72-mile portage across the Pa cific-Arctic divide between the Sti- kine River and Dease Lake, in the early Seventies. It was known az the Diamond c" outfit. Calbreath used the Aparajo pack and his conductors are still called "carga. dcres," after the Spanish. ThG original packers were white mer from California, but Indians have replaced them in recent years Faithful to their trust these Indiar packers wear chaps, spurs, and six. guns, and a few can handle lariat.
 Pack Animals Stampeded
 The first caterpillar tractor which made it's appearance in the Cassiai in 1924 was anathema to Calbreath It stampeded his pack animals. II. predicted failure for the miner! who started freighting across ths divide with it.
