(Seattle Times, April 20.)
Built especially tor the great

tive daughter of Alaska and cheered
by a throng that included scores of
men prominent in the development

; before the eyes of the spectators in
'sweeping curves of beauty and
| strength.

II A total weight of 3,800 tons was
released when Aliss Frances Nowell,

nounced here.
The British steamer Majestic is
7.9 feet longer than the Leviathan,
Mr. Love conceded, but the Levigt
-han’s beam is 2.10 Of a foot wider,
and he declared alterations made
during her reconditioning gave to her
a gross tonnage of 59,956,65, against
the Majestic's 56,551
Lloyd's Rogister gives the measure

Costi Little and Overcome* Trouble
Almost Over Right
Any breaking out of the akin,
even fiery, itching eczema, can be
quickly overcome by appiytng iien
tho-Sulphur, declares a noted akin
specialist. Because of Ha germ de
stroying properties, this sulphur
preparation instantly brings ease
from skin irritation, soothes and
heals the eczema right up and leaves j
the skin clear and smooth.
It seldom fails to' relierve the tor
ment without delay. Sufferers from
akin trouble should obtain a small
jar of Rowles Mentho-Sulphur from
any good druggist and use it like
cold cream.

AERIAL SERVICE
BENEFIT ALASKA
DECLARES ASHES
President Northbird Ayiation
Co. Discusses Future of
Industry in Alaska.
"Aerial transportation is coming i
fast to the front and there is prob
ably no other ipart of the world where !
thU means oif traffic will be of great- '
sr benefit than in Alaska," said
Aviator Roy F. Jopes, ewnor and pilot
of the seaplane Northbird, todaj^r
"The great development of the air
of aerial navigation in the past few
yoars lias brought to us this new
moans of travel and communication
before we are ready to give it the i
consideration it deserves," he de
clared.
Success In Venture
"Three years ago,” said Jonhs, “the
Aeromarine Airways Company began/
a flying boat service between Key |
West and Havana. The company be-,
gan with one iflying boat, and a far-_
sighted management has resulted in
flying over one million passenger
miles, and the transport by air of
more than 20,000 persons, since the ,
Inauguration of the service. Along
with the service the equipment has ,
been ■ increased to include a large
fleet cf commodious flying tfoats
which tarry 11 passengers on regu
lar schedules.
“This accomplishment has been at
tained without injury to any passen
ger. It established the fact that with
thoroughly trained personnel and the
correct equipment, travel by air on
over-water routes is not dangerous."
Alaska Service
1 The Northbird Aviation Company,
of which Jones Is president, has be
gun operation In Southeastern Al
aska with an idea of establishing just
such service and record for Alaska,
Jones said. Beginning in a small
way, as is best where an industry
must be built up from experience .
with the peculiar problems it must
confront, he said, the operators hope ;
In the near future to inaugurate a
service on such scale as alone will
insure 'proper and safe development.
"Flying short aerial tours in the
communities to which aviation is
novel should bring returns which
wtil.l (provide for the maintenance of
adequate shop and housing facilities;
att'd additions to equipment which
will then be plUced in regular inter
city service in both Southeastern and
Western Alaska, including a line to
the Interior, perhaps by way of Skag
waysaid Jone's.
Mail Carriers
“A proper showing of performance
will secure recognition from the
United States 'mail service and the
inauguration of an air im'ail line ter
minating at Juneau, which point will
be the distributing center for first
class mail going to the Westward.
Liter, if experience proves it prac
tical’, the tnoro' difficult route from
Juneau to the Westward will be es
tablished "
The conduct Of an aerial service of
any character must not bo entrusted
to any person not thoroughly trained
in the iparticular branches of the in
dustry in which responsibilities may
be, Jones declared. Such a course,
he emphasized, could only result in
the discouragement Of public support
and the depriving of Alaska of the
benefits which a properly conducted
service can bring, he said.
Commends People
Mr. Jones said he is appreciative
of the interest and support of the
people Of Oastineau Channel toward
the establishing of an aerial service
in Southeastern Alaska. The far
sightedness of the .people here for the
future benefits Of aerial service
throughout the Territory, as shown
him whenever ho has been here, is
proof for the success of this in
dustry in Alaska, he said.
Mr. Jones eXpedts to spend a short
time here, when he will start his
Southeastern Alaska aerial service.
Visiting comrades welcome.
