BARNDOLLAR DISCUSSES
NENANA WAGE CAMPAIGN
"The railroad between North Ne
nana and Fairbanks is giving very i
good service, operating two pass
enger trains a week, which are well
patronized,” reported Examiner of!
Accounts B. II. Barndollar, upon his
arrival on the coast recently frcrn i
the Interior. “The line extending]
southward from Nenana is also do
ing a fair passenger and freight
business.
“Shortly after the connection be
tween North Nenana and Fairbanks
was completed a large number of
men in that division were laid off
any many of them started for the
coast or the States to look for other
employment. This caused a great
deal of uneasiness in the town of
Nenana, since many of those who
were leaving' had been in the coun
try for many years and it was felt
that their departure marked a back
ward step in the life of the com
munity.
“A propaganda for a higher scale
of wages was pushed by the Ne
nana Commercial club on the the
ory that the men were leaving be
cause the wages were not high
enough. However, many of the men
who left have, it is understood, ob
tained jobs in the Southern division,
and some of those who went to the
States are returning and are spread
ing the news that conditions in Alas
ka are better than in the States.
It is reasonable to suppose that tlie
tide is turning, as there is a marked
increase of work along the railroad
line in the Northern division, and
nearly all who have employment
appear to be contented.
‘‘Some lines of business have
possibly been overdone somewhat !n
that section, but aside from this
there is good reason to hope that
prosperous conditions will obtain, so
far as Nenana is concerned, for
some time to come.”
The Fairbanks post of the Ameri
can Legion has been advised of the
fact that a territorial convention
will be held at Juneau on April 23.
It is probable that Fairbanks will
send proxies to some member on the
coast, as it is unlikely that any
member of the local post will be
leaving for the Outside in time to
attend the convention.

GREAT SUCCESS
BIG CROWD OUT
The vaudeville entertainment and
picture show which was (riven at
the Coliseum on Saturday night, un
der the auspices of the local igloo
of Pioneers, for the benefit of Allen
Crane, proved to be a most en
joyable affair, and the result, finan
cially, is most gratifying to the com
mittee in charge, although the ex
act amount realized for the old
timer from the sale of tickets will
not be known for a day or two.
Nearly every seat in the Coliseum
was occupied when the curtain rose
on the one-act skit entitled “A Gen- !
tie TouclV’ very pleasingly present-j1
ed by Miss Dorothy de la Pole and ^
Mr. Robert R. Eames, under the:1
direction of Mr. F. J. Date. The i
act was a new departure in vaude
ville entertainment in Ncnana and;
made a decided hit.
; , Mr. Alfred Linder was second on i
the program with an accordion solo, j
which was rendered in a finished!
manner. i
Mr. Dominic Grilli followed with :
a Neapolitan love song;, sung in j
Italian, the title of the song being j
“0 Sole Mio.” Mr. Grilli has a!
splendid voice and his sinking was j
much enjoyed. ,
Miss Margaret Southworth was J
. next seen in a fancy dance, in cos
tume, and was very well received.
Music was furnished b.; the Colise
um orchestra.
The next number was a vocal j
solo by Miss Valentine Anderson, i
accompanied by Miss Lucile Diven. ;
Her selection was “The Dear Little j
Ghost of a Smile,” and for an en-!
core she sang “The Indian Moon.” j
Miss I.eota Scott followed with \
one of her cleverly executed dances, i
in costume and with special lighting j
effects. Music for her dance was I
furnished by Mrs. W. A. Coghill. ’
The vaudeville program was con-1
eluded by Mrs. Leon Kellum, who
captivated the house with her rendi
tion of “Slow and Easy,” appropri
ately dressed for the song. For an j
encore, Mrs. Kellum sang “Patches,” !
in a change of costume, followed !
by an exhibition of step dancing'
that took the big audience by storm, j
She was accompanied by the Col-|
iseum orchestra.
The program was concluded with
three reels of motion pictures, in- j
eluding a travel picture and a two
act comedy.
The music for the entertainment,
including a pleasing overture, was
furnished by the Coliseum orches
tra, under the direction of Prof.
Ernst Berggren. j

. banks with a load of over-the-ice
