LIBERTY LOAN IS
WELL SUPPORTED
BY MITES
Nenana Ladies Make A Splendid
Showing and Very Materially
Swell the Receipts.
The results obtained so far as a
result of the efforts of those in
charge of the Fourth Liberty Loan
campaign in Xenana have been
highly gratifying, the total amount
subscribed up to noon today being
$57,000.
It needs but $3,000 more to double
the quota allotted the Xenana dis
trict, and that Xenana will more
than double the quota is a foregone
conclusion.
The success of the campaign is
due in a very large measure to the
patriotic ladies of Xenana who have
most energetically carried on the
work both in the town and the out
lying camps.
Mrs. Carl Schmidt is the chairman!
of the ladies’ committee; the other
members being Mesdames F. D.
Browne, E. R .Brown and J. C. Van
Orsdel, and these patriotic ladies
canvassed the district so thoroughly j
that they were able to turn in sub
scriptions amounting in the aggregate
to considerably over half of the;
entire amount subscribed. They
have not relaxed their efforts yet'
and mean to corXinue until the!
last minute of the closing day.
On the ladies’ committee, Mrs.
Frederick D. Browne, the charming
wife of the engineer in charge, who
had charge of the work in the out
lying camps, has the well merited
distinction of having sold Fourth
Liberty Loan bonds to the total
value of $22,000, over one-third of
the entire total subscribed up to
noon today, an achievment of which
anyone might be justly proud.
Mrs. Browne, accompanied by Miss
Luella Shaffer, left Xenana on her
campaigning tour on Saturday morn
ing, going out to the end of steel
on the D line. She commenced oper
ations at camp 16, and after lunch
eon took the buckboard for the Wil
son ranch; and bright and early next
morning visited the camp and the
various working parties, reaching
every man on the line and making
it possible for them to extend their
support to the loan. The ground
covered by Mrs. Browne extended
as far as the remotely situated camps
in the Lignite country, and such
camps as she was unable to reach
personally, owing to the limited time
at her disposal, she reached by means
of the telephone, making a personal
appeal to the workers for their sup
port, which was cheerfully given.
Returning to Nenana, she gave
herself but a short period of rest
and then crossed the Tanana river
to camp 415, on the N'enana-Fair
banks line, traveling' from this point
up the line towards Fairbanks to!
Lundborg’s grading camp, near the
Joyce Lake roadhouse, meeting with j
the same support as had been ex-1
tended her on the line south of town.'
Mrs. Browne, on her trip to camp1
415 and beyond worked alone, travel-:
ing in the line wagon which was
cheerfully placed at her disposal.
She did not overlook anyone and
made side trips to every working
party between the engineering camp
and the Joyce Lake roadhouse. She
reached all the men with a direct
personal appeal, and it is hardly to
be wondered at that so hearty and
j most gratifying response was met
i with.
Added to her charming personality,
the wife of the engineer in charge
possesses an unlimited store of
energy. She has accompanied her
husband on some of his most diffi
cult locating expeditions in the
mountain wilds of Oregon, Nevada,
| California and New Mexico. She
has tramped by his side through
forest, across desert, over mountain
passes, in the blistering heat of
tropic sun and in the frigid tempera
ture of high altitudes. Therefore,
the journey she has just made in the
interests of the Fourth Liberty Loan
has only slightly taxed her reserves
of energy. She has thoroughly en- j
joyed her trip, while doing a world
f of good to the great cause for free
dom and justice.
Mrs. Browne purposes to continue
her work until the period set for
completing the loan has expired.
The collections made by Mrs. F. D.
Browne at the various camps were,
as follows:
Camp 373 <43-mile).$4,400
Camp 385 <35-mile) 6,500
Camp 15 (D Line). 2,100
Camp 16 (D Line). 3,450
Camp 415 (Fairbanks Line).. 3,400
Total . $19,850 :
She also collected $2,150 among
the railroad workers in the Nenana
j yards.
The amounts individually collected
by the other ladies of the committee
are not available at this time, but
it is believed that they all have
done very well. Mrs. E. R. Brown,
wife of the manager of the N. C.
store here, had collected the sum
of $12,500 up to yesterday evening;
she is still vigorously continuing her
I campaign around town. Mesdames
: Schmidt and Van Orsdel have also
added very materially to the good
cause, and as soon as the amounts
collected by these ladies become
! available, they will be published.
