to | sent it." The government shall be
upon his shoulder and His name shall
be called the Prince of Peace, of the
increase of His government and peace
there shall be no end: This strife torn
world shall pay an awful price and
never know lasting, beneficent
peaceful government until they permit
such government to be established in
and rest upon the omnipotent shoulder
of the truths and high principles enun-
ciated by Jesus Christ.
The idea is all wrong that our rulers
and governments do not need Jesus
Christ There is where He is needed
most My Bible declares Him: "The
Prince of the kings of the earth," and
if the nations would have peace and
prosperity, they live in the favor of
God and this can only be done with
Cody leadership. Men mad with pow
er and filled with the spirit of covet-
BUSINESS and greed and only lead peo-
pie to ruin. They must lay their
crowns and sceptress at Jesus feet
ally and acknowledge Him as King
Kings, Lord of Lords, that they
might fashion the government in his
truth and direct it in His spirit Such
a government must be footed in justice
to all men. The powerful nation that
pounces upon weaker nation and muir
ders its manhood and crushes its spirit
that they may take away its portion of
bread is nation unworthy of its place !
among the great and sooner or later
must meet its inevitable fate If God
is God, and God is just, men and Ma
tions must reap what they sow. If we
are to be saved from ourselves the /
rulers of the world must turn to the
immortal principles of the Prince of
Peace, for herein lies our only hope |
OF salvation. Gods word declares:
"The God of our Fathers raised up i
Jesus, whom ye slew and hanged on a |
tree Him hath God exalted with His
right hand to be Prince and a Saw I
ior." Acts 5:30-31. Here lies our hope
and our salvation. The "Isms" of man
has cursed us and built hell on earth;
let us have a big ovenfire for them and
then turn to the great, unfailing Prince
of Peace, let us not sit idle until we
are engulfed in war and then run to
the church and pray for victory. There
i. no victory in war, both sides are de-
feated victory comes to those who
master their problems without war, and
thus preserve the principles of the
Prince of Peace. Let the Federal
Council of the Churches of Christ in
America call the people to their knees
for week of prayer. Ask Catholics
and Jews to join it that God may give
us wisdom, courage and strength to
save this world from the curse of war
that now threatens all that is good and
worthwhile among us.

THIRD ANNIVERSARY OF
 BIG FIRE IN DOUGLAS


 Just three years ago today, CT about o'clock this morning, it is, since the last big fire occurred in Douglas to wipe out practically all Uf the central part of the town i With the sun shining warmly as it is as this is being written no snow or ice in evidence, it is hard to visualize the conditions of that morning, February 23, 1887. The roads and streets were ice covered, temperature was about 10 degrees above zcrc. and old man Taku was really doing his stuff.
 Homes were destroyed, businesses wiped out, and many there were who did not know which way to turn for even a shelter or know where their next meal was com ing from.
 Today it is a different Douglas The town looks better than it ever did Tn place of many shacks or less modern buildings that existed then there are at least 15 new dwellings and other structures and still more are being built or planned for later
 There is the fine large school building, one of the best in it's class in the Territory. The new City Hall, well arranged and con- yenient for various civic uses. There is a modern post office with ample number of boxes twice the size of the old ones; new Kilburn Apartments which MT Kilburn is already preparing to enlarge; and Y. Shitanda Apartments; New Douglas Inn, Mikes Place, and Joe's, two foremost amusement places on the channel; new church and headquarters building of the Alaska Evangelization Society.
 A new city grader keeps the roads in Al shape and new fire truck and equipment gives the town better fire protection than ever before.
 Partially completed is an entire new avenue of prospective home sites on Fifth Street overlooking the entire channel; a WPA project giv- ing relief for unemployment to nearly 50 men this winter
 The new street is 2,30O feet in length from D Street to the road on Mob Hill which was connected up only this morning
 Considerable work is yet neces- sary before the road is open to miscellaneous travel, but already home sites there are being con- sidered by prospective builders.

 -Loy Operated Upon

Carl Loy was successfully oper- ated upon at the hospital of the office of Indian Affairs at Unalas- ka February IS and is doing well.
 This matter of fact message, re- ceived by the Bureau of Fisheriee in Seattle recently, chronicles the successful outcome of drama of the Northern seas which had kspe Seattle offices of the Bureau of Fisheries and Alaska and Seattle districts of the Coast Guard watch ing radio bulletins night and day over a period of several weeks.
 It was a race between the cutter Haida and time, with the vagaries of an appendix Loy was stationed on lonely Amchita Island with only one companion, complicating the situation.
 Loy Stricken
 Back in January the report was received from the island that Loy was developing symptoms of the malady Later messages of inn proYenent CT aggravation were re- ceived as the time passed.
 Then it was decided to spend the Haida, at Juneau, nearest cutter to Amchitka Island to bring Loy in, and she started on her 4000 mile round-trip.
 Loy and an sso cia te named Mangan were "marooned' upon Am chita island last fall for the pur- pose of watching over and study ing habits Of a herd of sea otters which have been making the local ity their headquarters. They also were on the lookout for poachers, for so rare have these valuable ur-bearers become that they are protected at all times, and heavy penalties are enforced against any hunter who kills them.

She's down -. . She's up.
Round -Four:
The stage? The closest Ruby Stevens had
ever been to the stage was the balcony -
rather, the gallery = on those rare occasions
when she had the price of a seat. A dancer?
Well, she really was dancer: dancer on the
sidewalks of Brooklyn back, street, to the
tunes of hurdy -g,udy. Ruby was orphaned
when she was two years old. Her foster parents
were as poor as her own had been, and could
hurdy-gurdy man came past you could always
find her on the sidewalk, dancing happily to
the rollicking tune; following it, still dancing,
to the end of the block, and beyond.
So that was the stage, and the dancing, of
Ruby Stevens.
But now, walking from the office of Vogue
for the last time, she has that slip of paper
clutched in her right hand. When she comes
to the alley that leads to the stage entrance.
she hesitates. She had intended to throw the
note away. But now :. why not? Yes, why
not? She turns resolutely to the stage door and
shows the note to the attendant. He opens the
door and tells her where she will find the
director.
ANY experience" the director asks.
Ruby laughs 'Plenty!"
Get in the chorus, and let's see what you
can do"

telephone exchange. She is watching the deft
plugging into the jacks, the swapping of con-
nectors. Her practiced ears are alert for a
flaw in the low-pitched, polite murmur of
voices going through the number please and
thank-you routine.
The flaw comes: angry, high pitched, ex-
plosive =
Listen, you, that was the number you
gave me! :. You're crazy! Do you think l
can't hear? You can 60 jump
The supervisor goes rigid, professional hor-
ror in her eyes. She looks along the line. It's
that new girl, at the left.
Miss Stevens"
The new girl, her face still red, slips one
of her headset receivers aside and looks up,
apprehensively.
What does this mean" the supervisor
asks quietly, ominously.
Some idiot tried to tell me ="
That will do" The supervisor eyes mar
row. I'm afraid" she says slowly, you're
not going to like this work."
The girl takes off the headset, shakes her
auburn hair in a gesture of defiance. WELL"

You're an actress"
"A dancer"
You'd better dance, then" The supervisor
turns grimly away. She makes out her report

Tough luck, Ruby.
Round Two:

The Strand Roof has new switchboard
operator She has auburn hair. She got the
job because of all the applicants she was the
only one who said she could double as

Round Five:
MIR. Willard Mack, the playwright, is hav-
ing bad morning. He and Mrs. H. B. Harris,
producer of his new play, The Moose, are
sitting in Mrs. Harris's office chewing their
lips and looking glum.
For that part of the show GIRL" Mrs.
Harris is saying, no matter who we cast, she
just doesn't seem like show girl"
MIR. Mack strokes his chin DIETER watch
him; he has an idea). Presently he says, Il
wonder how it would be to put an actual show
girl. a real chorus girl right out of the line.

Its never been done that way"
Let's try it. There's girl in the Ziegfeld
line = came up from some smaller revues.
She's got more than it takes to be a chorus

whats her name?"
Barbara -. Barbara something. Used to
be Stevens, think"
Round Six:
Barbara Stanwyck now lives in fine house
in Beverly Hills, California. She is movie
star In private life she is Mrs. Robert Taylor.
Round Seven:
1T took four years." she says, sitting in
her corner and shutting her shoes in some
imaginary rosin and looking at me with those
clear, level eyes. She speaks with hint of
Scotch burr, which is hers and is as fine and
natural as apple pie. 1T took Mr.. Mack four
years to make me an actress did that part in
The Moose; they even rewrote it to make it
more important. Then for five days each
week, for four years, studied and practioed
and worked. got other parts, and kept on
studying. came to Hollywood after had
done the part of Bonnie in the play Bmlesque.
It was fine part and did the best job I
could in it. When got to Hollywood, was
cast in picture called Mexicali Rose. Do you
know what was?"

"A vamp. Me, out of a Brooklyn back street
and I'm vamp." Barbara Stanwyck's

guess m little rusty. he goes slower, the
letter is finished; he returns to his Office As
soon as she gets chance, Ruby turns to her
typewriter and laboriously punches out the
boss's letter on the keys. Her notes" are in
longhand scrawls, and she has to hunt for
each key on the machine. At last it is finished,
and she takes it in. He looks at it, puzzled.
I'm sorry it took so long," she says
apologeticaly.
"Oh, that's all right" he says. There was
no hurry" Her heart leaps. But" he adds,
the whole thing is wrong"
Her shoulders droop. well, think I'll go
back to the stage 49,"
So long, Ruby.
Round Three:
Mr.. Condo Mast, publisher of Vogue, is
frowning. This new girl in the pattern depart
ment - good sales record, but =.
Send Miss Stevens in."
She comes in.
Miss Stevens ah .. do you think it
necessary to mimic our very best customers
behind their backs?"
Ruby takes deep breath. Here it is again.
She touches her hand to her hair in an
elegant gesture. Il guess it's because I'm an
actress. This job was just temporary. I'm
going on the stage"
Mr. Mast looks at her closely. He picks up
a pencil and writes note on the pad at his
elbow In that case, !" he says slowly, smiling,
there's no use wasting time. Take this note
