The Presbyterian church was fille
to overflowing with happy, eage
children anxiously waiting to se
Santa Claus. Mr, McBride had worl
ed hard to make this his first Chris'
mas in Cordova a success. He muf
have felt well repaid for his work b
the manner in which the children r<
sponded to help secure this success
We may sny this is the best Xmas th
church has ever seen. The exercise
were short, so those who had thei
own trees at home were not kept wai'
ing too long. Santa Claus did hi
work well and each child went hom
happy, not one having been forgotter

Through the kindness of Hev. E. 1
Newton, of Hyde Park, N. Y., the chi
dren who were members of his paris
while he was In Cordova were mad
to feel they were not forgotten b
Santa Claus. A huge box of all sort
gifts had been sent to the mission her
and the Women’s Guild of the Eplt
copal church provided a tree and som
few things to make it attractive. At
noon on Christmas day the lied Dra
gon was all alight and many a child
who might have been forgotten was
1 made happy. The ladies who helped
to make the Red Dragon warm and at
tractive were Mrs. C. 8. Bratton, Mrs.
John Day and Mrs. O. E. Lambert.

Cordova Lodge of the Loyal Order
of Moose did itself proud at Its en
tertainment and Christmas tree in
their hall Christmas afternoon. Be
ginning shortly after I o'clock the
fun was fast and furious until after
five, when the last of the guests de
parted, nnd all with the declaration
that it was one of the finest celebra
tions ever held in Cordova.
A huge Christmas tree, handsomely
decorated and lighted, stootj in the
center of the hall loaded with gifts
for the little ones, nnd if there was
a child in Cordova thsit was not re
membered it was clearly not intended,
for Santa Claus was there in person
and superintended the passing out of
the gifts. Even the Ladies were not
overlooked, and boxes of candy were
passed out to those who were pres
ent. Also there were abundance of
apples, oranges, peanuts and popcorn.
Not the least of the features of the
ifternon was the lunch. Not only was
there an abundance of good things to
eat, but it was well served, and ap
parently relished by everybody.
Chicken and turkey sandwiches,
cakes, salads, puddings, relishes of
various kinds constituted a lunch fit.
for a king.
At intervervals throughout the af
ternoon there was given both vocal
and instrumental solos, duos and trios,
by Cordova’s best musicians, which
were a feature of the entertainment.
Dancing and stories, the rag dancing
hy Dorothy Dooley and Eline Rollin
ger, a song by Ophelia Howard and
Dorothy Dooley, and a song by Mike
Shephard were rendered and elicited
applause.
Old Santa, though he came in the
door instead of down the chimney,
was vociferously welcomed by the
little ones, yvho crowded arond him,
and many of them are still telling how
1 they shook hands with the genuine
1 old giver of Christmas gifts.
In the evening an informal dance
was given in the hall by the mem
hers of the lodge and a number of
friends.
i
The comittee in charge of the en
tertainment are to be congratulated
t upon the success of the affair, which
reflects great credit both upon thern
} selves and the lodge.
■!SURGICAL TREATMENT
;! FOR OUR NATIVES
t _
A movement is on foot to make Jun
1 eau the headquarters for surgical
r treatment of the Indians of Alaska.
B The matter is being taken up with
■ 'Udegnte Wickersham and other met)
• hers of congress.
• Thrre is an unamity of opinion on
f the part of those who have interested
■ themselves in the natives of Alaska
• that one of the most important steps
! in bettering their condition is sanita
9 tion and next to that surgical at’en
r tion, in order to remove the causes
for blindness and other diseases from
9 which many of them now suffer.
9 Not only are many of their diseases
■ destroying the natives themselves, but
their sickness, in many instances, is
contagious and may be easily com
1 municatod to white residents.
