CLUB WILL GIVE BIG DANCE
TO PROVIDE NEEDED FUNDS
At a meeting of the Nenana Com
mercial Club held last night at the
club chambers in the Union building,
it was decided that the club give a
dance on the night of March IT,
for the purpose of providing fund
for the treasury and the following
committee was appointed to arrange
for the affair: W. R. Manning, chair
man, J. H. Scott. Dr. J. R. Bowen.
W. H. Gilcher. Joe Fischer, Matt
Matich, Gus Buhmann, 4. M. Reiter,
Harry Davis, W. C Gagnon, Her
man Anderson. A. B. Phillips, M. J
Cooney and William Thomas.
Early action ir, the matter i.-> be
ing taken to insure the success of
the affair, the arrangements for
which are in very capable hands.
The Commercial Club plan.-, on
entering on an aggressive advertis
ing campaign, primarily with the ob
ject of lowering freight rates in
order that the towns and settlement'
on the Yukon and Tatiana rivers and
also the neighboring districts will
necessarily have their freight re- j
quirements routed via Nenana. The
revenue from the dance, after all j
expenses have been paid, will be de
voted to this purpose, and also for
the purpose of properly, entertaining
visitors from the States and other j
sections of Alaska.
COUNCIL CONSIDERS -FINANCES
IN FORM OF FIRST TAX LEVY.
The tax rolls of the City of Ne
nana, as prepared by Assessor Bob
Toussaint. were presented to the
council at the regular meeting of
that body on Tuesday night, and
the figures are now being gone over
by the aldermen, sitting as a board
of equalization. Meeting.; will be
held daily until the work is com
pleted and the rolls ready for final
presentation to the taxpayers.
There was some discussion at
Tuesday's meeting relative to the
tax levy and it appeared at that
Time that it would be necessary to
fix the levy at fifteen mills. No de
cision will be reached, however,
until the rolls have been finally ap
proved. i
Two proposed ordinances were giv
en a first reading and will be up
for final disposition at the next
regular meeting. One of them relates
to the duties of the municipal magis
trate and the other provides for the
holding of a municipal and school
election on the first Tuesday in
April.
The dog ordinance was up for a
second reading, but no action was
taken, the council deciding to de
fer final consideration until the
next regular meeting.
In response to a request from the
School Board, the council adopted
a resolution providing for the in
auguration of a curfew regulation,
under the provisions of which it
will not be permissable for children
to be on the streets, unattended,
after nine o'clock at night. The
new regulation will go into effect
on Sunday night and will continue
in force until the end of the school
term, and both Chief Johnson and
Deputy Marshal James Hagan will
see that there £re no violations.
It is thought that arrangements
can be made to sound a short blast
of the power plant whistle, which
will be the signal for youngsters to
get off the streets.
