PALACE LAST TIMES | - o——e Billie Dove has often been called the most beautiful girl on the screen. Sich a reputation usually de- trads from the histTionic ability of an actress and in past years this may have been true of Miss Dove. « But in her last few First National starring vehicles, critics have come * to rialize more and more that Miss Dov¢ has given the motion picture * screen something beside her cameo- like beauty—that she is a finished actress of skill and finesse, and that her characterizations are be- coming more and more vivid and compelling. Het latest stellar vehicle, “The Man and the Moment,” a First Na- tional picture, is at the Palace for the last two times tonight” This time Miss Dove appears in an American story as a typical Amerkan girl. The story, by Eli- nor Glyn, has all the torrid feel- !ngs# d passions thgt Mme. Glyn bestows upon her literary s yet it has an unusually and interesting plot. Rod La- e is leading man. ——— GAMES MONDAY Pacific Coast League d 6, 4; Seattle 1, 6. me:lsco 9, 1; Los Angeles ento 11, 1; Portland 8, 5. jwood 15, 6; Mission 4, 2.

NEW AIRPLANE COMPANY HERE FOR OPERATION Pioneer Airways Brings: Stinson Cabin Monoplane Here for Station The entry of a new aerlal naviga- tion company— Pioneer Airways— into the Juneau field was made known today by Roy Jones, general manager of the firm, who arrived here today on the Northbird, one of the twg ships now operated by it, piloted by Jim Dodson. The sec- ond plane, the Seabird, Sitka and was flown here today. “One of these planes, probably the Seabird, will be stationed per- manently in Juneau,” Nr. Jones said this morning. “We had ex- pected to come h€Te wirlier this summer, but owing to the press of business in Ketchikan, were unable to release the necessary ship.” The company is constructing a hangar at Ketchikan now, and will build a second one here, but prob- ably not before next spring. “We are in this field to remain and are offering to the public dependable planes and expert flyers,” said Mr. Jones, who was himself one of the first Alaskan pilots. “Pilot Dodson was until recently a U. S. Navy pilot and operated off the airplane carrier Lexington for some time. Jerry Smith, who is pilot of the Seabird, is one of the best known fliers on the Pacific Coast.” The two planes are identical in type. They are four-place Stinson cabin monoplanes powered with 210 horsepower motors, They have a wing spread of 42 ftt. They op- erate at 100 miles per hour for nor- mal cruising and have a top speed of 130 miles. The cabins are up- holstered in gray, and are so con- structed as to give passengers the best possible visibility. The walls of the cabine are sound-proofed. Passengers can . easily converse in ordinary tones. Both ships are fin- ished in black and orange. The Northbird left Ketchikan Monday morning and went to Wrangell where it took a number of passengers up, and made a trip up the Stikine River. It proceeded from there to Tenakee where it noped to meet the Seabird, but that ship had already hopped to Sitka. It came here this morning from Tenakee. Mr. Jones expected to leave late this afternoon for Ket- chikan.

The total in the public schools is 533, as compared with 513 last fall. The grades contain 401, which is 11 more than last year's fig- ure, and the high, 132, an addition of 9.
