The Aurora Borealis class of the
Presbyterian Sunday school is mak
ing arrangements for a hard time
social to be held at the church in a
week or two. All the young people
in town are cordially invited to at
tend, the only stipulation being that
the very oldest of old clothes must be
worn. The idea tinges a little on the
Bolshevistic mode of thought, for
policemen will be authorized to hail
before a tribunal of wrath any who
violate the principles of raggedness
and poverty. Western civilization
comes to the rescue at this point,
however, for the most severe penalty
inflicted will be but a small fine.

The members of the Northland Club
are very appreciative indeed of the
generosity of Rev. E. P. Ziegler, as
expressed by his donation of a beau

from Tiekel on Copper river flats. In
the foreground is a cliff shelf upon
which a family of Indians are cooking
supper over a camp fire. To one side
stands out wierdly an Alaskan spruce
tree, while in the distant background
a tall mountain, with its icy sheet of
glacial snow silently dominates the
whole scene.
