Fireworks Planned
One of the highlights of the
1955 Valley Fair will be a giant
fireworks display. Board mem
bers this week placed an order
for over $500 worth of fireworks,
with the largest percentage of
these display types that will be
set off at night. Local organiza
tions will be invited to purchase
their club emblems if they so
wish. These large displays are
generally set off toward the end
of the program and are very im
pressive to see. The board voted
to order a Moose emblem this
year, inasmuch as the local
Moose lodge has for several
years given their time and work
in supervising and setting off the
fireworks.
Advertising Planned
Orders will be placed this
week for attractive posters, bum
per strips, stickers, pennants,
ribbons and badges—all pro
claiming the coming of the 15th
annual Matanuska Valley Fair.
Individuals desiring further in
formation about displays or con
cessions are invited to contact
the Matanuska Valley Fair As
sociation by writing P. O. Box
1337, Palmer.

ORPHANED MOOSE CALF
MAKES SELF "AT HOME"
Children in the AHA housing
area are having a treat many city
youngsters seldom get. They are
seeing a very young moose calf
every day—right in town.
The calf, at the moment, is a
“roomer and boarder at the
A. B. Compton home in the AHA
housing area. He was found in a
very weakened condition, by
Kennith Killian last week in the
vicinity of the Compton home
stead near King River. Follow
ing several attempts to locate the
calf’s mother, the men brought it
into town and notified members
of the Fish and Wildlife Service
of their find.
“Moosie” as he has been dub
bed by the Compton’s two sons,
has become quite a pet. He has
been living in the basement,
thriving on a diet of canned milk,
weeds and tree buds. He has made
himself quite at home, the Comp
tons report, and now climbs the
basement stairs unaided for his
daily dozen in the yard, advanc
ing a long way from the first
night when he had to be taught
to drink milk out of a pail and
when he slept on a bed in the
basement.
Members of the Fish and Wild
life Service plan to transplant
the young moose to the Cordova
area.
