EASTER
Easter has come once more. The
World again admits and acknowledges
the resurrection. People of all class
es and creeds will gather in church
buildings, to honour the greatest of
all miracles the resurrection of Christ.
Some may deny the resurrection but
they do it but feebly. The World
knows that Christ rose from the dead.
Christ had said He would rise again
the third day and He did rise.
The message of the resurrection
Day is found in the Golden Text, "Be
cause I live, ye shall live also." This
is hope indeed this is promise su
preme. This gives us the assurance
that there is a new life for everyone
who will believe. Christs’ own words
were, "I am come that they might
have life, and that they might have it
more abundantly."
The old Jewish Sabbath is buried
in Christ’s tomb. From the time of
his resurrection no other day is men
tioned in scripture, in relation to
Christians as a day of rest and wor
ihsp, but the first day of the week;
and this, because the church is iden
tified with and joined to Christ in
resurrection alone. (Eph. 2:1; Cel. i
3:1-4.)

When the outer sole becomes thin
or worn thru, the inner sole spreads
and makes the shoe look out of shape.!
Resoling in time will save the shape
of the shoe. 4'.

CONGRESS STUDYING NEEDS,
SAYS SUPERVISING INSPECT
OR OF BUREAU
j -
; Some legislative requiring regular
! inspection of small passenger carrying
motor craft and also motor corga car
riers probably will be enacted during
! the present session of Congress, ac
! cording to Capt. William Fisher, Su
pervising Inspector, U. S. Steamboat
Inspection Service, of the Eleventh
, District comprising Washington, Alas
' ka and a part of Idaho. He arrived
j at Juneau last week on his annual
j visit to the Juneau station of the Ser.
1 vice.
A measure was introduced in the
j lower House sometime ago by Repre
j sentative LaGuardia, Republican of
I New York, requiring all classes of
J motor vessels to come under the
j steamboat inspection requirements,
j There has been considerable opposi
! tion developed to this proposal, Capt.
i Fisher said. Unofficially speaking, he
eaid that its chances for enactment
were considered to be slight.
A second measure is understood to
be contemplated which would require
all small motor vessels carrying pas
sengers and cargo carriers of more
than 15 net tons to be inspected. Cer
tain other classes of ships, including
. motor fishing vessels and yachts
. would be exempted from the require
ments. This proposal was said to be
meeting with popular approval and
might be enacted into law.

FIREMEN BE GUESTS !
it iran TONIGHT i
The Ford Educational reel at the
Liberty last night showed the Detroit
Fire Department in practice work and
was so interesting that the Liberty
management thought the Seward De
partment might like to see it.
The Liberty invites all regular mem
bers of the Department to view this
reel, and the whole show free tonight.
This particular reel starts about 10
minutes past 8.
ENTERS PIONEER HOME
C. C. Dunham, well-known miner
fo Interior Alaska who lost the sight
of his eyes in a powder explosion in
the Chandelar two years ago, is en
tering the Pioneers Home at Sitka.
Fisher said, do not expect that Sena
tor Wesley L. Jones’ amendment to
the Merchant Marine Act, which would
keep the Government in the shipping
business, will be passed by the House
of Representatives. It was passed by
the Senate several weeks ago by a de
cisive majority.
There are three shipping bills now
pending in the House. One of these,
introduced by Representative White,
Maine, Chairman of the House Com
ttmiee on Merchant Marine and Fish
eries, provides for the sale of Govern
ment-owned vessels to private inter
ests and for awarding to them Govern
ment mail contracts instead of subsi-l
dization. Marine interests expect it!
will pass the House and possibly the
Senate. Its approval by the Presi
dent is also forecast.
