S.

No visitor’s trip to Seattle is complete unless he is taken out to Alki, and of residents of the city daily make the excursion during the warm weather. is, therefore, to the interest of the whole city that an adequate path be provided Alki—and anyone who has tried to make the trip over Alki ave. by automobile will the present road is far from adequate. t is unfortunate that, as matters now stand, the burden of paying for the improve- will fall upon the shoulders of four individuals, while all of Seattle will benefit it.

A few days ago a Northern Pa- cific trainman called at the office Who Will Succeed Caruso? Much debate! Who will be Ca- ruso's successor in the opera world? The honor probably will fall to no one in this generation, or for many years to come. Voices like Caruso’s g@ever come from heaven to earth more than once in @ century, rarely that often. When Madame (Jen- ny Lind, the “Swedish Nightin- gale”) died in 1887, the world speculated about who would be her successor, Now we know that there was only one Jenny Lind.

The person who believes the blood atonement of Christ to be a “pagan principle’ and then takes part with those who observe Christian commu- nion, that person fulfills the Scrip- ture which mys: “Therefor, whoso- ever shall eat this bread and drink this cup of the Lord unworthily, shall be guilty of the body ai the blood of the Lord.” I Cor, 1 .
