For every face a smile,
For every heart some charity
To make Christmas worthwhile.

LOCAL NOTES
Guy Skyman, who recently un- 1
derwent an operation for appendi- |
citis in the St. Ann’s Hospital in |
Juneau, returned to Petersburg this |
week. He is improving rapidly and
expects to resume his work after
the Holidays.
Ernest Kirberger from Kake is
in the city this week buying furs.
E. A. Salonka returned home
Ja3t Saturday from a business trip
to the States.
A very successful and interest
ing program was given on Wednes- |
day evening by the local Sunday |
school. Hymns and carols were ||
sung by the congregation and the 1§
Sunday School. Little Caroline ' |
Ekrom charmingly rendered a §
beautiful Scripture reading, which |
was followed by a prayer.
The program consisted a num- 1
ber of recitations and included a |
\ocai duet by Solveig Vick and |
and Myrtle Dunkleberier. The com- \
Mitr.ee, which consisted of Mrs. C. 1
O. Parks, Mrs. Pete Jorgenson, and f
Hr. Susie Standard,^ are certainly f
to be commended, as everyone con
ceded it to be the finest Sunday
School program ever staged in Pe
tersburg.
After the children’s program,
Rev. Sydness gave a short address
and then Herve Jorgenson, in the
guise of Santa Claus, appeared and
lrom the beautifully decorated tree,
distributed a bag of candy and nuts
and a gift to each child.
rru , WJ T AO min :
of Fetersburg wish to extend to the
people of the community who re
sponded so generously to the sub- j
scription for the new stove which
has already been installed in the
the responsibility of purchasing
this much needed stove but had
scarcely hoped for such hearty re
j spcnse which made it possible to
pay cash instead of assuming a
debt.
The stove is certainly an im
1 provement and adds greatly to the
comfort of the congregation al
lowing the pews to be readjusted
so as to give a greater seating capa
city.
The children of the Bureau of
Education school will give their
entertainment and have their
Christmas tree in the Bureau school
building this evening.
high school Wednesday night De
cember 29. A dance will follow

ent last Saturday night in their new
suits of royal blue and white, the
