A call dfor the Sixth Annual Convention of the Deparment of
Alaska, to be held at Fairbanks June 24th.,25th. and 26th., has
been issued by the Deparment Adjutant.
The S. S.’’Alaska” , leaving Seattle June 13th. .will be the last
vessel leaving Southeastern Alaska to allow for arrival at the
convention on time. The visitors to the convention will return
south on the S. S. ”Admiral Watson”, leaving Seward June 30th.
There is a bare possibility however, of connecting with the S.S.

The convention is called for the purpose of electing officers
for the ensuing year, amending the Department Constitution and
By-Laws and for the transaction of such other business as may be
brought before it.
The Convention City’s Legion Post is an exceedingly live one,
which is attested by its keeping first place in the Membership
Percentage Column in this publication.
A very good program has already been worked out by the Post
for the entertainment of the visitors, among some of the places
arranged to be visited are the Alaska Agricultural College and
School of Mines, "Richardson Highway, and the Alaska Experimental
Station.'
Fairbanks is known throughout Alaska for its hospitality.
There are accommodations for everyone. You can’t know how much
enjoyment there is at our conventions until you have been at one.
Also for those cf us who haven’t seen the cities of South
western Alaska and the Interior, this will be an added attraction
and you will carry home pleasant memories of them and their cit
izens. -Alaska Legionnaire.
