Capitol Presents Fine Cast in Unusual Picture as Vehicle for Star “Death Takes a Holiday,” Fred- ric March's new starring picture opening tonight at the Capitol The- atre, is based upon an unusual theme, according to Maxwell An- derson, who collaborated with Gladys Lehman in the adaptation of the original play of the same name by Alberto Casella, adapted into English by Walter Fer The story of “Death Takes a Holiday” is built on the idea that Death, curious to discover what men hold so0 dear in life, to under- stand why people fear him so, emerges from the shadow, takes on the human form of a dashing, ro- mantic lover, and for three days tests all the human illusions. He becomes the guest of honor at a gay house-party, keeping his true identity secret, and dazzles the young women present with his beauty, his wit and his mysterious importance. = > With each of them he seeks to find the real thrill of love, for he has been told that, of all human emotions, love is the strongest and But with each successive sweetheart, he fails to find the thrill he expects, until at last, he captivates the heart of one girl| his real personality, he puts the last second of his “holiday.” Supporting March in “Death able, recently seen with Dorothea Wieck in “Cradle Song,” Sir Guy Standing and Kent Taylor, and ed from the New York stage, not- |ably Katherine Alexander, Helen | Westley and Henry Travers.

MINISTERS GIVE VIEW ON LIQUOR TOLEGISLATURE Gastinea: Channel Asso-| ciation Makes Suggestions as to Regulations The As: Juneau Dou; Ministerial ation, membs of which are Protestant Clergymen on Gasti-| neau Channel, has addressed a letter, with recommendations, rela- tive to liquor control, signed by the Rev. Erling K. Olafson of the Resurrection Lutheran Church, as President, and the Rev. David Waggoner, of the First Presbyter- ian Church secretary, to the members of the Twelfth Legislative Session. A copy of the letter follows: The members of the Juneau- Douglas Ministerial Association are vitally interested in promoting tem- perance and sobriety within the | Territory, and in that connection | we have made a study and inves- tigation of the present situation The majority of the members| of our organization are in favor of absolute prohibition of alcohol | as sition of sponsoring any of the| fatal moment off until the very regulatory liquor laws. We do wish, | delegated however, to make the following | suggestions regarding existing | ble improvement. 1—Local Option—We feel cities, towns, that | and communities | decide whether they wish to per- | mit or prohibit the sale of alco- | holic beverages within their boun-| daries. (a) By election in incorporated cities and towns. (b) We call your attention sto the old laws regarding local op- tion outside incorporated ton See section 2537 C.L.A. 1913. there is no agreement between of- ficials—municipal and Territorial— as to their responsibility in .the matter of granting and enforeing licenses. This responsibility = must be v definitely fixed before there can be any hope for im- provement. In this connection feel that the law should specifically provide: (@ No beer of any kind sh: person who ha a felony or liquor license 1 be issued to any een conyicted of (b) Provision should be made for advertising of applications for licenses, so as to permit oppor- tunity for protest. Such notices of application to be advertised the ss, and in public places for thirty days. the 3 ion ment the Enforcement—It is our opin- that some definite arrange- should be made for financing orcement of these Jdaws, It has been officially reported that to the beginning of this year ap- proximately $150,000 in revenue has been received by from the licensing and sale of li- quor, but no Territorial appropri- ation has been made for the en- forcement of the Liquor Laws. In this connection we wish to point out: en (a) There are at present no in- estigating officers whose duty it and discovers the true meaning of |as a beverage.

It might be well to make Sunday several distinguished actors import-|should be given an opportunity to|closing a specific section in the new Liquor Law. 5 Beer Parlors— Beer Parlors have hgen a cause of many abuses.

See present law which makes such a provision for schools only; and also CL.A. 1913 sec. 2584. 10 Habitual Drunkards— There is no habitual drunkard statute at the present time. A stringent law should be carefully worked out and passed at this session of the Legis- lature. | These suggestions are the re- sult of a study of local condition of the Compiled Laws of Alaska; |of interviews with the members of | the Liquor Control Board, and oth- |er public officials, both of the | Department of Justice and the | Municipality; and from comments, | eriticisms, and suggestions receiv- ed through correspondence had | with numerous qualified observers {in the different Divisions of the Territory. beer to SEATS 25c ANY TIME JUNEAU’S BIGGEST SHOW ¥ A MRS.
