MOOSE 10 GIVE
MANY WES TO
THOSE IN MASK'
______
Substantial prizes, and lots of i
them, will be awarded to those in.
! costume at the Moose masquerade,
which will take place at Union hail
on New Year’s eve. The commit
tee in charge of the affair will go
the limit in the matter of offering
inducements to dancers to take spe
cial pains with their costumes, and
the interest already manifested in
the dance, both in Xenana and Fair
banks, indicates that there will be
keen rivalry for the honors of the
evening.
The merchants of Xenana will co
operate with the Moose in this de
tail of the arrangements, the com- [
mittee already having been ap
proached by several of the busi
nessmen of the town with offers of
special prizes. They appreciate the
fact that the Moose special will
bring many visitors to town, and
they want to help the lodge make
the dance one long to be remem
bered.
It is too early to say much about
the prizes beyond the fact that ■<
there will be a considerable number I
of them. But the list is being pre
pared as rapidly as possible, and
announcement will be made from
time to time for the inspiration of;
maskers.
The committee has authorized The
Xews to say. however, that the big;
prize of the evening will be $20 in :
cash, to be awarded to the best lady j
character.
Reports front Fairbanks indicate
that the Moose special has made a !
hit with the people of the upper!
town and that a big crowd may be
expected to make the trip on the
excursion train. The reduced fare. ,
quick return, and prospect of a i
jolly t'-ne during the brief stay in
Xenana, have an appeal that will
be hard to resist.
It has not yet been decided what :
form of entertainment will be pro-1
vided the visitors on New Year’s i
day, bat the matter probably will
receive the attention of a committee
of businessmen and others within
the next few days. The Moose are
looking after the special train and
will provide the fun for New Year's
eve, but they want the townspeople
to do the honors on New Year’s Day.
Mrs. Cooney has announced that
the formal opening of the Cooney
Hotel Annex will be held on the
afternoon of January first, on which j
occasion the visitors will be invited
to help celebrate the event. There J
will be dancing and a general house- j
warming.
E
10 MEET TONIGHT
The regular weekly meeting of
the Nenana Commercial club will be
held at the usual hour this evening
at the quarters of the organization
in the Union building, and it is
stated that considerable business of
importance to the town will be up
for discussion.
One of the questions considered
probably will be that of entertain
ing the visitors who will arrive in
Nenana on the Moose special, on
December 31.
The meeting will start at eight
o’clock, and all members are ex
pected to be on hand.
Mr. and Mrs. Roy Hall reached
Dunbar’s from the Tolovana yes
terday and will take the train to
Fairbanks this afternoon. They made
the trip over the new Happy trail,
covering the distance in a little over
a day.
