TRY ELKAY’S FLY-KILLER.

HYDER DRUG COMPANY
Bread will be a more costly
food commodity after today.
The reason is that everyone
will have to pay more for flour
because of the processing tax
of 30 cents per bushel which
the millers will have ‘to pay to
the government in order that
the farmers who agree to re
duce their wheat acreage for
1934 and 1935 may be compen
sated.
The tax, effective July 8, will
apply to every bushel of wheat
ground and is expected to add
about $150,000,000 per year to
the national bread bill. In
consequence every loaf of
bread will cost more than be
fore. So far as we can see, the
only way to make the loaf coat
less than before its to make it
smaller.
WHEN IN STEWART:—
, Club Cafe and Bakery.
C. J. Davis, former Hyder
resident, is making an excell
ent record as Chief of the Jun
eau police department, judging
from the following reference
to his activities printed in that
rather critical Juneau new.s
: paper, ‘‘The Alaska Press,”
formerly “Stroller’s Weekly.
The journal says :
“This fellow Davis is making
a good Chief of Police. He has
the nack of combining courtesy
with efficiency. When he gives
an order it usually is obeyed at
once and the other fellow won
ders if he complied because he
wanted to or had to.”

HYDER CELEBRATES
NATIONS’ BIRTHDAY
(Continued from Pago One)
during the contests. Despite a
lot of hard work, the pair ap
peared to enjoy their gratui
tous contribution to the pro
gram fully as much as anyone
else but are none the less en
titled to Hyder’s' thanks for
their amusing efforts to liven
the occasion.
The childrens’ sports were
followed by a soft ball gam3
between Hyder and Stewait in
which the Canadians carried
off the honors by a score of 11
to 6. The Hyder boys played
a good game but bounced out
too many easy flies to win,
while the Stewartites lined
them out low and fast.
The early evening was given
over to a hotly contested bast
ball game between Premier
and an international team of
Hyder and Stewart players.
The contest was given in
creased interest by the offer of
a pint bottle of Uncle Sam’s
new 3.2 beer to each player
making a home run and a case
of the beverage to the winning
team. The result was some de
cidedly hard ball playing in
which Premier won by an 11
to 5 score.
The day's festivities were
rounded out splendidly by the
Pioneers’ dance, which was at
tended by one of the largest
dance gatherings seen here in a
long period and is generally
conceded to have been one of
the most enjoyable dances of
the past two years. Excellent
and very uptodate music was
furnished by the five-piece
Premier orchestra and the
Pioneers served a luncheon
that was conceded a rare
treat by all participating.
Sourdough beans, prepared in
that deliciously savory style
for which the Alaskan sour
doughs are justly famed, were
the piece d’resistance and were
supplemented b y delicious
fresh baked rolls, a variety of
tasty home-made cakes, and
coffee. Some of the bachelors
are talking about the luncheon
yet. Hereafter all the Pioneers
need to do to get a crowd for
their entertainments will be to
announce a luncheon of sour
doug beans.
Numerous Premier and Stew
art residents participated in
the entertainment and it was
after 3 a. m. before the crowd
was willing to go home.
