LABOR DAY PLANS
ABOUT PERFECTED
Only one more day until the big cel
ebration that will appropriately ob
serve Labor Day in Anchorage. The ;
regular committee on arrangements
has had the support of every member
of the Alaska Labor union and the
j merchants of the city and the day
promises to be filled with interesting
and entertaining events. Commenc
ing with the parade scheduled to start
from Labor Union hall at 10 o’clock
Monday until the dance Monday night
there will be some event to please
and attract the attention of the rec
ord-breaking crowd tnat promises to
attend the festivities. The order of
the parade has been decided upon as
follows: First the Anchorage band,
folowed in order named by the mem
bers of the Pioneers of Alaska, mem
bers of the Alaska Labor union, dec
orated floats representing business
houses of the city, with the fraternal j
and other organizations following.
The committee on arrangements
wishes the people to know that they
are expected to be on hand properly,
so there will be no delay in starting
and no mixup in the line of march.
The floats and entries in the parade
are requested to meet on F street
where the order of marching will be
arranged, then march west on 7th av
enue to H street to 5th avenue and
then down fourth avenue to C street
to Recreation park where the parade l
will break to witness the sport events
that will take place immediately afte:
a short address. A program will bo
be given to everyone with a detailed
account of the different events.
1 It is the intention of the committee
to pull the final event not later than 1
or 1:30 o’clock, which will allow an in
termission until 2 o’clock. Starting
promptly at 2 the people will have the
pleasure of witnessing an exhibition
not heretofore advertised but which
will be good. The ball game between
the Commission and the Shamrocks
will start at 2:30 o’clock and the auto
mobile and horse races will take place
! immediately after on 4th avenue. The
evening’s entertainment will be taken
up with the big dance at the Union
: hall.
me committees in cnarge 01 tne se
lection of judges for the different
floats, automobiles and characters has
chosen wisely in naming Thos. Jeter,
Judge Munley and Judge Leo
pold David. These gentlemen have no
mercantile business connections in the
city and are known to be impartial
air fair.
The judges for the baby contest will
be selected from the audience in the
grand stand.
A judges’ stand will be erected on
municipal block directly opposite the
Anchorage Chamber of Commerce.
W. J. Stewart and Jack Robarts
have been selected as official time
keepers.
The banks, postoffice, telegraph of
fice and business houses will be closed
for a greater part of the day and the
city is already filling up with the boys
from the line and the smaller sur
rounding towns.
There have been several additional
business houses signified their inten
tion of entering floats and participat
ing in the parade.
Much interest is taken in the tug of
war and two strong teams have en
tered for the $100 prize, viz., the yard
steel gang and a team picked from
the marine ways and longshoremen.
The ladies’ nailing contest has sev
eral entries, as has the ladies’ wheel
barrow race. The tie-making contest
and the Marathon race promise to be
close.
In fact, there isn’t a poor event
scheduled and the events will be cal
led in order named on the program
and everything has been attended to
so there will be no delays in starting
the different numbers.
The entire population of Anchorage
is looking forward to this celebration
which promises to be the biggest and
best ever taken place in Alaska.
The committee on arrangements for
the Labor day celebration have wisely
decided not to announce the prize win
ners of the various prizes until just
before the baseball game starts in the
_ afternoon and have also requested the
! Daily Times to announce that Chas.
Peters, who is active in labor union
work and is mainly responsible for
the organization of the union and the
erection of the Labor Temple, will
make a short address at the park pri
or to starting the sport events.
The committee further wishes to
announce that they will endeavor to
get all business houses in Anchorage
to close and close tight from the hours
1 of 9:30 o’clock in the morning until 4
o’clock i nthe afternoon.
